before you start getting a ton of responses telling you to go out and grab a thousand other amendments you could add, perhaps now would be a good time to take a step back and think about what you need to add. Then on to how much of that to add. I'd say grandmah has it right on with the base...

while its clear from earlier posts that I'm more of a fan of LED tech than shwagbag, I do agree that he points out the multi-variate nature of growing. Without properly isolating a single variable (e.g., light source type), you don't really know what you're testing. I don't think shwaggy was as...

admiral surf, this should probably put the matter to rest--can't be any clearer than Hyroot stated it: these lights are investments; why invest in something that may only last 1/2 grows, and has a greater probability of setting your house on fire? anywho, back to waiting for xgs to come back in...

might want to give navigation instructions for the paranoid...some people on RIU don't follow links on principle/out of paranoia depending on your interpretation. best of luck down there! be easy, Dr.J

Indeed, it may SEEM like COMMON SENSE and this is precisely why it should remain a hypothesis until you've confirmed it. Also, again, how are you defining "huge difference?" Because if those uMols are the difference between maximum terpene, flavinoid, and cannabinoid expression, I'd like to have...

some really hard to parse claims here. the only one I'd be interested in fleshing out is how you propose to make direct comparisons between lights in a given grow without the kind of laboratory setup required for control groups etc. Also, to be fair, seems like you'd need to do such a test with...

yes, there are things you can do to try to get bigger colas. Dialing in your environment to absolutely optimum would be one route. since it sounds like chemicals are no problem for you, there are certain additives you can look into. mainlining would probably be something you'd enjoy, check that...

Last i checked the site, they said xgs back by Jan 27 so 5 days and you're golden. Me, on the other hand, i'm stuck deciding whether to spend an extra 30 dollars on the xgs or just get the sgs...i've been on a51 about to pull the trigger twice since last night now and i'm itching to make the...

was said above but Quantum Badboys work nicely with a fullham racehorse ballast, but so do the less well-known fluorogrow evergreen units. ive got two fluorogrows and a badboy right now but i'm gonna jump to an area 51 sgs or xgs soon be easy, Dr.J

Hey coco, nice work in here! I'm about to pull the trigger on an a51 sgs and wanted your input on a)whether to wait on the xgs to get back in stock and (b) whether you know how many amps one of your sgs draws. sorry for awakening a slumbering thread! Be easy

But I'd include at least two hps bulb replacements in the cost to even the score up since the LEDs won't have to be replaced for a while ... So that adds between 80 and 300 bones, putting the led in a slight advantage... Anyone have any thoughts?

Also, I'm pretty sure I can get an ever grow nova 2 for 300 bucks, the sgs for 495, the xgs for 525, or a 600w quantum ballast and eye hortilux with hood for around 350; switch that to a solis tek ballast and its 480

Here's my situation: I've got some cash to work with and was thinking about making some upgrades to my setup. I currently run organic soil under par t5. I have three 4' 4bulb t5s in my tent right now but was thinking of getting either an hps or an led and make one of my t5s a dedicated veg...

as to #4, you actually burn off a lot of the cannabinoids when you smoke; check out the fuckcombustion forum for info on vaporizing and its efficacy in delivering more diverse and/or targeted cannabinoids profiles

^^ you two seem to be talking about decarbing/eating cannabis ; thc, in my understanding, is the cannabinoid that needs decarboxylating for its effects to be feltin their characteristic way. Hence pet's experience of a more distinct "body" "high"

Ben, j. Madison here and I totally agree with your emphasis on consideration. im also starting chilies and tomatoes indoors with several types of herbs. Not too worried about herbs indoors, I've grown me in windows and under lights but I've only ever pre-started tomatoes and chillies. Since I'm...

they're usually just high wattage; voltage generally stays between 120 and 240v. Of course, i'm with dadio: why grow if you don't want to well, grow? To more directly answer your question: Mix up 1 bag premium potting soil with coco and mycorrhizae, eg., roots organic add ≈6lbs premium...

Soil mixed; tea no good--not enough air to bubble with, need a new pump. I decided to just moisten it down with plain tap and keep it inside, covered, no holes whatsoever. I'll be dumping it back and forth between two 32gal cans, and will moisten it down next time with some ewc/molasses/humic...

could just be one of the more sativa dom. phenos...might just take a little longer to put on her bulk, chin up!... To OP: Can't wait to see how she grows! Be easy, Dr.J

Pet, where's all the T5 chatter? Club T5 seems dead too? be easy, Dr.J Oh yeah, i just picked up 5 florasuns for 10.99 from drs. f&s --great to stock up! :peace:
