$12 at Harbor Freight, plus D batteries. The battery life seems to be pretty good. Transfer to buckets, use for houseplants and outdoor beds, or dump wherever.

So, should we expect a certain annual Greenpoint sale coming up very soon? Any speculation or inside info regarding what that might entail? Not sure what I'd want to grab right now, but we'll see. Still kicking myself for not saving a cut of a particular Tomahawk pheno that was really special...

I haven't been following this news or this site very closely for quite a while now. But yeah, we may finally be getting there. I think there is a possible citizen initiative (or two?) that has some hope of making the ballot. And last I heard, some of the jokers in Columbus were working on some...

This is nonsense! Because everyone knows, there is no such thing as too much horsepower or wattage! :-P

Ohio is potentially making some progress. A couple of Republicans in the statehouse have penned a bill that would allow for possession of up to 5 ounces, and permit home grows of 6 plants, 2 flowering. Sales would be taxed 10%. Expungement of marijuana-related convictions is also included...

Absolutely right that perlite doesn't hold much water, so hand watering is a no go unless you're crazy and have a lot of time on your hands. But if you are automating the process you can adjust your pump timer however you like, making it a non-factor.

I've had some that needed external support in just perlite, for sure. I train larger plants as a matter of habit anyway, so it doesn't bother me, but yes, they can have some trouble standing up straight on their own. Not as much of a problem with smaller plants. Haven't seen roots popping out...

Ever get anywhere with this @MidnightSun72? Late to the party, but I've done some similar things. I did a little SOG hempy run, 2 liter soda bottles with perlite and vermiculite, top drip recirculating. I was pretty satisfied with it, though I think I prefer fewer, larger plants After that I...

True, but that seems to be the story in all of the bigger cities I've seen. Not just CLE and Y'town, but Dayton, Akron, Cinci, Detroit, Pittsburgh, etc. It's like it's fine all around you... then suddenly you get REAL nervous. I even got a little sketched out in Columbus once, somewhere a...

I'm super late here. but I'm not too surprised that GH changed the Maxibloom formula. I had success with it, but a lot of us had trouble getting it to dissolve, especially if we weren't working with fresh product. Maybe it dissolves more fully, more easily now? I've always dug it, but I haven't...

Yep, it usually works out that way. Ohio needs less restrictive legalization that permits some amount of home growing - that is the answer to our marijuana problems, with no fat-cats or governments taking a cut. There were at least a couple of groups hoping to get things on the ballot this fall...

I had never heard of them and just checked out their site. I was thinking it was very pop culture oriented, then I saw that they even have a Pop Culture Mixpack, haha. Pretty different from the typical seedbank that RIU'ers promote and trust, which are all about known breeders and lineages...

What happened to NORML? The links from the main national page to the Ohio, Athens, Cleveland, and Akron-Kent chapters are all dead. I stopped looking when I went 0 for 4. Did everybody run out of energy, or have we simply moved beyond needing NORML?

I used to get good results from Pro-Mix actually, especially with a little added perlite. I found it to be cheap and easy and Menard's always has it. Then I decided since it was mostly inert anyway I might as well try something completely inert. So I tried perlite with a little vermiculite, in a...

I paid through Alibaba rather than emailing Kingbrite. Next time I'll try email to see if I can save a little - can't hurt to try. Tried to use a Visa and the payment failed, not sure why - no fraud warning from card company.. Ended up using Amex, which I like using for bigger purchases anyway...

Not the genetics we usually discuss here, but is that a Bengal cat? Beautiful markings! I want a spotted cat, and for a while we thought we had to get a bigass crazy savannah cat for that, but I've seen a lot of people talking about bengals lately (and not just Joe Burrow). Semi on-topic: my...

Not sure, was I supposed to get a bill from Customs or something? I paid a fairly reasonable shipping charge and nothing else. Under $200 total, if it matters. Is there a threshold value before that comes into play?

Just another Kingbrite/Alibaba experience to throw on the pile: They took 2-3 days to get my order out, and I had it in my hands about a week later. After some of the horror stories I've heard about getting stuff shipped from China lately, I was very pleasantly surprised, and impressed...

Just placed my first order from Kingbrite the other day. Only took 2-3 days for them to get it sent out. Now I'm looking at Meijiu due to all the recommendations here. I love their English: "The Magic grow lamp make plants enjoy warmly sunshine just outdoor." I wonder if these kinds of...

Hey, I'm no expert but I've been doing some shopping lately and looking at similar things, so I'll give it a go. I think you're on the right track looking at the Kingbrite boards via Alibaba. Kingbrite is pretty well known and reasonably respected among growers online, due to good prices, a...
