    There's a few threads on the Advanced Cultivation forum worth checking out.

    UV Lights? UVB

    Not yet, but I will be using a reptile UVB light for my next grow. From what I've read, you should have a few of them and set them closer the plants than the HPS. But you also shouldn't have them running for the entire light period. Just a few hours a day. UV rays are harmful to plants (and...

    GrowLab 120 or Homebox L

    Well, I own the Homebox L and couldn't be happier. But note that the Homebox L is smaller than the Growlab 120. The Homebox XL is the one you should compare it to. If you're getting the 120/XL then a 600w should be perfect. On my Homebox L that would produce too much heat.

    My first 3 chamber closet grow with Blueberry

    No nutes yet? My clip-on fan is pretty small; about 20cm diameter.

    Does Big Bud Knock your Socks off????

    I've honestly never had Jack Flash, but Jack Herer is one of my fav's and since they don't make feminized Herer I kinda had no choice. It's apparently easier to grow with it's added skunk genetics. The high is supposedly warm and cerebral, but I'm sure that all depends on the phenotype.

    Does Big Bud Knock your Socks off????

    Yeah Sensi are the bomb. Got a 10-pack of feminized Jack Flash and another of Super Skunk.

    Diesel Ryder 400 grow

    I'm not even a big hash fan; probably because I've only smoked Afghan and Moroccan hash. However I did try some Nepalese once and that was awesome! I just don't wanna waste all those beautiful trichomes on the trim. LOL I'm not Swiss but have been living here for the last 10 years. It's...

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    I'm using a Canon EOS 40D with 60mm macro lens. But i also took this trichome shot with my smaller "point and shoot" Canon IXUS 960 and a 30x loupe on the lens. Maybe not as pretty, but definitely does the job and beats using those loupes and microscopes.

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    Just this one. A Bubblegum (well, the top half anyway) getting flushed in the bathtub from 4 days ago:

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    yeah I don't even own or "trust" a microwave. I just left a few popcorn buds on top of the ballast, and will hang dry the larger bud for 1-2 days.

    Diesel Ryder 400 grow

    I feel ya. Just bought a few liters for my ice-o-lator bags and it definitely isn't cheap! Swiss tap water is one of the purest in the world, but still...

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    Tell me about it bro. I've been dry for the past 4 days and it SUCKS! Haven't been dry for more than 12 hours in 4 years :( definitely a shock to the system. I'm in desperate need of THC! btw how are you quick-drying your "sample" buds?

    Thanks bro. Just checked your grow out. Looks like we'll be harvestin' at the same time ;-)

    Some Photos I Took : )

    damn sorry to hear that :( hope whoever stole it feels karma's justice. Try switching the white balance to Tungsten under the HPS.

    Diesel Ryder 400 grow

    Yo awesome grow :clap: you'll be smoking that good s#it in no time. It's reassuring to see i'm not the only one picking and drying a few buds early :weed:

    My first 3 chamber closet grow with Blueberry

    awesome setup bro :clap: those clones are looking a bit hungry. do you have a small fan blowing directly on the stems? If you're gonna veg 'em for a month, you really want strong sturdy stems when budding to support the weight. I neglected this on my first grow, and had to tie up all...

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    yeah a bigger pot would have been ideal, especially since i let my clones veg for too long given the available space. If you're doing a SOG type grow (many small plants) then 6L pots are fine, but i want fewer, larger plants so next time i'll be using 12L. Hey, i'm new at growing too. we...

    top44

    By far the most boring strain i've ever come across. A lot of commercial growers are putting out Top 44 and it's just awful. I'd rather not smoke at all than smoke that shyte. And believe me it does NOT depend on the grower. shitty genetics is just that. Jason King put it best in Cannabible...

    sandmonkey's 1st grow: NLX and BubbleGum

    Yeah you would be fine with just the grow and bloom. but we want more than just fine LOL the Fish-Mix really stinks, but I think i'll mix it with the Grow. I'm sure the microherd from the AN products will love it! That's way for my next grow I'll be doing 9 clones of the same strain from the...
