    Enough light for this new tent?

    I went with the 5'x5'x'6.6' DR150. I'm going to run a phresh filter (6") off my tjernlund fan. The two hoods will either be inline to each other, or side by side via a Y connector. All 90 degree bends will be replaced with plastic elbows to aid in maintaining flow of air. My 4" inline fan will...

    Enough light for this new tent?

    So I'm upgrading from my 2'x4'x5' tent with a 600 watt lumatek digital 600 watt ballast. I bought a second 600 watt dimmable digital ballast, so I have 2 600 watt lumatek MH/HPS lights installed into 2 6" Hydrofarm Daystar AC hoods. I'm thinking 4'x4'x'6.5' or 5'x5'x6.5' Secret Jardin DR...

    Checked on my guys today a couple times. Clones are looking healthy I think. The pH was around 6 so I adjusted it to around 5.6. I figured it will make its way up again slowly. The reservoir water was also somewhat fizzy. Im assuming thats from the rooting hormone (there was nothing else but...

    The day has come for me to try my hand at cloning for the first time. Bubble cloner in hand, along with 91% isopropyl alcohol, clonex rooting gel, and a razor blade. Sterilized a glass slab to work on, and sterilized the razor blade for about 30 minutes. Long enough to kill most microbes. I...

    Pics from 6/25/11 For some reason, it only saved the picture of the right four. Topping them tomorrow. Using my re-made bubble cloner. Ditched the drain plug and crap. It was just another thing to have to make water tight. Rubbermades are very brittle too for drilling through.

    Sorry. No new pics cause my camera was dead. Neem'd them today. Also started foliar feeding with seltzer water. They seem to like it. Strangely, one of them didnt like the neem. Maybe I'll go lighter next time. A couple of the leafs kind of lost their rigidity. Pics tomorrow. Cutting...

    Question on active intakes

    Hey all, So I have a near sealed 7'x6'x8' room. Im running a 400 watt HPS in a hydrofarm daystar AC hood. I have a carbon filter running off a 4" inline fan that movesaround 290 cfm if I remember correctly. I need an intake, and I only plan on venting the light when my climate controller kicks...

    So I built a bubble cloner. Heres a picture for those of you who are interested in making one yourself. Since I'm still playing around with soil, and just about to start playing with hydroponics, its a great way to generalize cloning. I installed an upper fill tube and a PVC drain plug...

    Pics from 6/24/11 This is day 37, counting all those from sprouting. Wish I had known to transplant stretched seedlings. They'd be a whole week or so bigger. Man they are LOVING that Cal Mag. If you are using straight pH'd dechlorinated tap water, USE CAL MAG. I'm telling you, a couple days...

    Im glad people are enjoying it. I received my AIR-1 climate controller today, and have a Hydorfarm Daystar AC hood in the mail. Got a good deal on it. I just got over an intense stomach virus or something. So I wasnt able to document their growht within the last three days. The smell of...

    Pics from 6/20/11 Pretty soon, Im going to make some clones of each by topping them above their second node. Then after they recover, they will be moved outside.

    Pics for 6/16/11 I thought they might benefit from another day of not watering. Seemed to be enough moisture. Boy was I wrong. A couple of them got burned or something, and wilted pretty bad. No idea what the deal with the grey flaking leaves are, but it didnt spread at all. I removed...
