    Budshots - Samsara El alquimista

    Hi folks, Did alot of browsing looking for info on this strain before I grew it out, found almost nothing... so this is for those who are in the situation I was! This fem freebie was received with an order from Attitude, and is now my primary strain after a long strainsearch. The smoke from...

    Timing of spraying

    I spray with lights on, however I have a fan running across the plants at all times (across the top of a scrog) - I've never had burn issues... maybe just raise your light a little if your concerned...

    Major Root Problems

    You'll find coco is pretty widely used, similar to soil in terms of texture, retains moisture well (i've had failed pumps and plants in coco still fine after 3 days or so), compacts (plants roots can compact it), is hard to overwater once out of veg, can use standard pots (I drain to waste as...

    New York diesel - young leaves droopy

    I had a ipcam setup for a grow @ another location, great idea just make sure it's secure (decent password), even run it on a diff port (i.e. 21 as ftp runs on 21), either way don't obsess - it's a weed, don't forget it! As long as as it's watered and you don't have any bug issues you'll be...

    New York diesel - young leaves droopy

    np, I'm no soil pro but like I said, overwatering is easy, and 5gal pots are huge, you may see dry soil on top but in the midle still might be wet as, might be a good idea to add more perlite if going soil with such large pots? My suggestion is to not baby them, I now set-and-forget with my...

    Major Root Problems

    From what I understand as a coco grower, it should be pretty much impossible to overwater in rockwool (similar to coco in that aspect), if you are feeding multiple times per day, enough oxygen will be getting to the roots, that is unless your r/w is constantly sitting in a pool of waer, even...

    New York diesel - young leaves droopy

    I've had extreme heat at some point on all my grows and never had any 'heat stress' like your explaining, so for me, I'd rule that out. 5 Gal buckets are huge IMO (but i grow coco), so my first thought is over-watering. Personally, I'd let the pots dry out to the point the leaves are drooping...

    What Are These Spots?

    I first thought spidermite too, but obv not as you checked.... i'd lean more to nute burn than anything else (for the spotted leaves), as other poster said, keep an eye on new growth, the spots will not go away now. I'd be careful adding anything in large doses as your in soil. I grow in...

    First Grow - Guerilla Auto 2012

    Hey Solitude, Keep in mind that once you've prepped your pot/hole with the bio bizz, you can leave a party-cup or larger sized area to which you can fill with seed raising mixture, and place the seed within this, that way the roots will only get to the bio bizz once a little more mature and...

    HOW TO make a fan that comes on once room hits a certain temp

    Hey S&C, See pics for my setup... I thought this through alot! Why it's designed this way; - Easy to change carbon filter - carbon filter sits upside down in airtight box to which the air cooled hood connects to, fan is underneath filter hooked up directly - Pumps hot air out at top corner of...

    HOW TO make a fan that comes on once room hits a certain temp

    Hey S&C, The stanley blower looks mad!! But hey, if it works then why change it!? Shame about not still working where you did, wish I had my hands on allsorts of bits and bobs, I'd be making some mad controllers! I use a mixed flow in-line fan, when recently getting back into growing I...

    HOW TO make a fan that comes on once room hits a certain temp

    Hey Tremayne, I've built one, Variac as the speed controller, ATC-800 as the high temp controller.. mine is designed to only kick in fan at 100% once the set temp is reached, otherwise it sits on the variac set speed... nice unit and not too hard to make, though variac's aren't cheap. In...

    question regarding watering coco seedlings

    Hey mdyw, sounds like you got it under control.. nothing wrong with popping the seeds that way, I never put my seeds straight in coco, for me some paper town and a plastic container... I use plastic party cups, cut a few holes, fill with a coco/perlite mix (70/30) and water.. do not squeeze...

    Canna Coco A&B? Nutrient Help

    Canna are good, same with H&G, Nutrifield, Dutch master, the list goes on! I've tried a number of them and am going to stick with 1. Nutrifield or 2. Canna, though canna is much more expensive than Nutrifield. Based on a number of grows and endless research I'm going with a combination of...

    downside to recirculating drip

    So from what I can see your growing in your roofspace... I'm not sure exactly what you mean by recirculating drip however I'm a coco grower and to me, this simply means re-using any runoff from your drip feeds... the downside to this can be pithium/root rot, flucuating PH, and potentially an...

    Should my HID lights hang vertical or horizontal for maximum penetration?

    Hey S&C, The guys over at growlite have done a number of tests with this hood (check out the vids over at youtube), and apparently it blows every other decent horizontal hood out of the water! Even this hood with a 600w globe was performing better than some of the other popular horizontal...
