NEVER!!! (imagine it like a battle cry... not like savage viking... more like schoolyard tackle football) I stop feeding... well I don't really feed much at all... I mix my soil to get my plant through veg and then top dress for bloom. I sometimes add a little something to my watering... if I...

I'm there buddy... I have been rushing my current grow (6 weeks veg... into week 5 flower right now... not sure if I can wait til end of six, or anything past that ARGH!!!... I feel like a pedophile: "BUT SHE LOOKED MATURE!!!" They're looking great though... so, you know, smoke some bowls, read...

Ok, but how do you mean? Your perception of the light? Their effects? I'm not saying you're wrong, or even that there's anything wrong with sticking to one light... it just sounds weird to me that you're basically committing to a light bulb brand or something because you're afraid of...

So, in a general sense an "acid mix" would be anything you use to help acidify the soil. For example, you might top dress with a compost mix that is high in acid (coffee grounds). As you water and it breaks down the acid gets into the soil. Ex.: Blueberries like acid soil... many growers use...

SO I'm new and interested in scrogging... not sure though. I have a 3WX4LX4H closet. Currently I top and LST to keep height down and increase the canopy horizontally instead. Even so, in my environment ambient humidity is a problem... and in my last grow the canopy was so dense it trapped all...

This is kind of a great thread... I say kind of because with it being so long now, it's a bit whacky... but the topic is great. I use this method... I didn't really learn it anywhere... I heard of it (or maybe read of it) and it seemed pretty straight forward to me... made a lot of sense too...

Curious, I looked around page 20ish... gave up... My guess is yes. It's what makes sense to me. But if not please point me to the why (I did try ;-))

No idea as to best... but ever check out air layering?

Never use a clear container... light kills roots, which slows growth. Also, the more root space you give them the better they'll develop, so a bigger container would definitely help. Keep in mind: growing in tiny containers all the way to the plant developing sex is common, since people don't...

Bulbs... I feel you always get less than what's promised. It's one reason I haven't tried High Powered Bulbs... from purchase cost to running cost to how often you need to replace them... seems like too much cost for me... upfront cost anyway. But I work small... I don't know if 150w HPS bulb...

@ rob333... hahah you remind me of the drunk in The Streets The Irony of it All ( ) Someone is not smoking enough weed. Back to the ACTUAL POINT OF THIS THREAD: I moved out of CO AND OR before they went rec legal, but I looked at prices in Oregon recently, and they are as high as ever...

wow lots of back and forth links... I'm glad I am a personal grower so I get to avoid most of the noise. I still don't quite get what's what. Commercial growing: there's limitations on all kinds of industrial production/manufacture, the best you can hope for are regulations similar to those...

Um yeah, this really does seem like a trick question... when they burn out? in the dark? with a head lamp? I am pretty dubious that your lights are what caused the hermies. I've gone from CFL to outdoor to LED all in one grow... no problems. The lumens, intensity, type, temperature (both in...

You already know the answer is no, you are just looking for justifications/a defense. There is no protection for marijuana growers. My county states that if my neighbor can in any way tell (see it or smell it mainly) that I am growing and chooses to complain my grow becomes illegal and I...

Meh... my LED is unidirectional, so I already use the whole thing :-P My bills are negligible as it is... I use more power to heat my desk area than to grow my plants, and still get (what I find to be) acceptable returns. It is weird that, with most people being all about the greatest yields...

Just remember that when you come across trolls and jerks as well, of which there are also plenty here... but yeah... this is certainly one of the best/most useful forums I've come across as well :) Yields taboo? Everyone I know who describes their ops always talk yields... that's the bottom...

is that what that meant? sorry, not high enough ;-). I thought you were just welcoming me to riu... I hope my answer will be clear for all future seekers.

Great stuff... One thing I noticed... OP talked about clear/amber trichomes... which made me confused a bit... I know pistils go from clear to amber... trichomes go from clear to cloudy. in both cases there's a level of change people are looking for to harvest, but the difference you're...

BOOM! there it is. 30 posts, 10 likes, 13 points. I was awarded "Welcome to RIU" and "Keeps coming back." After reading the trophies section it is made clear: Welcome To Rollitup You have been a member for at least 48 hours and three different users have liked something you wrote. You can now...

Well, mostly, if you are running the exhaust all the time (at low speeds) your have warm air blowing out, which keeps most of the cold from coming in. If the vent is not constantly going then the cold will creep in around it and create a cold spot around that area. In that case there's a lot...
