    Stealth Cabinet Blueprint

    the most efficient?? i would say ditch the tin foil, it really doesn't reflect enough light. also, it can create hot spots on your plants, wherein it does reflect light and reflects too much concentrated in a small area and burns your precious plants. i would set up your CFLs the way they are...

    Power Strip CFL Fixture

    not sure where you got your info on the lumens. its become pretty common knowledge (because the HID growers like to rub it in our faces!) that the CFL lumens dont "add up", you have 2 100 lumen bulbs.. you don't have 200 lumens, you have 100 lumens that you can disperse a little better because...

    My First Grow! DIY DWC & Grow Area, SNOW WHITE FEM FROM SEED!

    Texas Growers Unite!

    BRING ON THE NUTES!! although ocean forest is an awesome soil, and they can survive well into veg without any sort of nutrient. they look ready, just start at 1/4 strength to see how they like it. then after a week or so ease into full strength, ramping it up along the way 1/4 - 1/2/ - 3/4 -...

    My First Grow! DIY DWC & Grow Area, SNOW WHITE FEM FROM SEED!

    its still a LITTLE early to sex, its 50/50 from what i can see.. what you think are males, could be females that haven't grown their hairs yet. in my experience, you check on your plants one day and BAM! there are hairs EVERYWHERE. you will definitely know at that point. from what i can see, i'm...

    DIY Grow Tent

    here is a bulleted list of my thought process! The tent is going to be finished by December 31 (if not sooner) point being, it gives me time to plan, space out purchases, and overthink the hell out of every aspect! Perpetual harvest, I'm bouncing the idea around. Leaving the lower area more or...

    My First Grow! DIY DWC & Grow Area, SNOW WHITE FEM FROM SEED!

    I'll be sure to read back to pick up what I've missed, you said you're in flower now? How long was your veg time? That is one of the missing pieces of my SCRoG plan, how long do i veg?? And you opted for LST versus topping for the SCRoG? :peace: Shack

    My First Grow! DIY DWC & Grow Area, SNOW WHITE FEM FROM SEED!

    you remembered to soak your rockwool first, right? that is why i haven't (yet) bothered with rockwool, rapid rooters/jiffy pellets are pH balanced and ready to go. i have to agree about the 4 months.. my original design i envisioned is already changing!! i'm starting with a shelf unit, so i...

    DIY Grow Tent

    haha thanks gypsy!! well the light leaks i'm referring to are from the closet door cracks. they leaked in and possibly botched my last grow. this grow, i'm constructing a tent within the same grow space. im saying the minimal light leaking in through the door, will be no match for the tent. the...

    Waterfarm Closet Grow [PICS]

    i grew in straight clay pebbles.. nothing else. and i LOVED the results. SICC already pointed you in the right direction. pretty slow going though, kinda delaying the build because i know i'm going to be busy during the holidays coming up and won't be around to garden and tend to it. also...

    DIY Grow Tent

    the tent is going to be tucked away in a closet. the very same closet that suffered light leaks in my last grow. i feel confident that the small amount of light leaking in, won't be too much for the zippers to handle. :peace: Shack
