Hi guys I have done 4 grows in dirt and I have had enough. This is my 5th grow ever and I just have switched from organic soil to coco mix. This is my 1st grow in coco. I'm very happy that I switched :-) Now I'm about to switch from HPS to DIY LED. I'm not an experienced grower, so I'm hoping...

In fact the light temperature measured on the surface of the Earth changes within a day and within a year. You can actually observe a different colour temp at noon vs sunset :-) It depends on the angle at which sunlight penetrates the atmosphere. Therefore while you may be technically correct...

Hi I'm growing 4 plants from seed in plagron coco + perlite mix in 1x1m tent. I give them plagron cocos a+b +aptus cal-mag solution. I notice tiny little brown slugs creeping around on the surface of leaves. Otherwise the plants seem healthy. I'm wondering what is this? Is it bad? If yes, how...

Whatever works! I've been growing in soil & coco. Tried various methods & prefer to put the seed directly into wet medium & just wait for sprouts. I get germination rate of 100% and it requires least hassle.

efficiency LPC gets to max 90%, while HLG gets to 94% at full load

could you maybe fix pictures in the original post? I'm growing in a tent, 4 plants in coco/perlite mix. I wish I had a water drip system and a screen for scrog. I just can't figure out how do you get rid of the run-off water?

it's morning hours in Europe :) I'm up & about to get high :-)))))

wow! what a neat way to maintain a motherplant for a small grow! very impressive

just got the delivery from Kingbrite (I'm impressed how securely it's packed!) I notice that the rubber band on glass piece completely insulates the cob from everything else. Will this not result in water condensation? If I'm right, would it help to simply drill two extra holes in the...

Maximum effect 25 led "cob" cxb3590 3500k in 1 led / sq ft setup. With 1.4A driver, each led will draw 50W. This way you will avoid heat problems of hps and have perfect light distribution over the canopy.

I just pulled a trigger on 6 CXB3590 3500K CDs and await delivery now. I want to thank all of you guys for being here & sharing your knowledge & knowhow! THANK YOU Special thanks to: @SupraSPL, @Growmau5 and @Greengenes707 If it wasn't for you I'd prolly settle for some mars hydro or hps and...

moar MOARR!! xDD your buds look extremely good

hello SupraSPL, thanks for all the info! Much appreciated. What do you think about power supply like Meanwell 709-LDD-1500L (link to mouser)? I'm looking to power 9x CXB3590@50W ea in 3x3 tent (1 cob/sq ft). 709-LDD-1500L sitting at retail price 5.98€/piece is dirt cheap comparing to the HLG...

thx for the explanation I also got tricked into believing tapatalk is supported, when there's a dropdown on top of the page, suggesting that I should download tapatalk to use it with RIU.

wow! thanks for the feedback! yes, the probe is definitely covered with a layer of dirt. The pen is set for two step calibration. I'm only concerned, because when I put it in 4.01 it displays 4.40 & it takes a long time to establish that. I need to make sure the water ph = 5.8, so you see why...

when I calibrate ph, first goes 7.01 pH and it goes well. then I put the pen in 4.01 solution and it goes into WRNG any ideas how to fix it? I tried googling but no good finds :/

Hi Guys! first let me thank RIU community for all the extremely useful advise I find here! I love this forum :) I keep reading, but some answers seem to ellude me, I'd appreciate some help :) I want to build an all-round light for veg & bloom for my 1x1m tent. I want to use 9x...
