    homebox L and venting (and odor)

    they can and tend to when you flower so it is advisable to get some kind of odor control. depends on the strain on how much is smells and as for a fan, keeps things cooler unless you got temps under control.

    18 days for my plants

    I think I have a few more weeks before I flower. I want to flower when they are about 10" (they are 3" now more or less"). By then I will have a tent with the hps and odor control in place. I want to make sure I get some nice nutes but easy for a noob. I hear FoxFarms (the FloraBloom one) is...

    homebox L and venting (and odor)

    picture is worth 1000 words. I get it now.... carbon filter (with fan) sucks up odor air (and blows through cooltube) and out the tent so outside there is hot, not stinkin air... I seen a couple of those carbon filters on ebay for $80 which I may cop with an inline fan. Was debating on the...

    Dual Grow, Miracle Grow & CFL with AK48 and Power Skunk

    thanks, I think the key with MG is 1. mix with perlite and 2. make sure not to overwater. Overwater -> burning plants!!!! I feed these once a week and they are looking nice. As they get bigger I will increase the watering but I do not think I will ever get to a point where I water them 3x a...

    homebox L and venting (and odor)

    Hey gang, I am currently veggin 6 plants under CFL and they seem to be doing just great. They are in my basement where the temp is anywhere between 76 and 80 degrees. For flowering, I think I am going to go with a 400 hps and a homebox L. I am thinking there will also be a temp problem but...

    18 days for my plants

    I am not using any nutes as I know that the MG stuff has nutes in it. They are not even three weeks yet and I figured that once they all turn 3 weeks I can start to think about using nutes. I dunno if I should/would unless I see (well if you all can tell me) they are deficient in anything...

    Growing without nutes...

    I am using miracle grow and yes many people hate it here but I mix it with Perlite and water. Nutes are already in the soil and if you look at my MG grow you can see that I am pretty good. I may try the organic way my second grow but MG is cheap and so far very easy.

    18 days for my plants

    Thanks guys. Looks like I am going with watering them once a week, seems like 64oz of water is a nice amount for them at this stage or at least for the next few weeks. I was thinking of going 20/4 to start some more growing. Would you guys do the same (they are on 24/0 now). Rippey
