I'd go ahead and transplant soon, be sure the perlite is as dry as you can get it. Dry it weighs a lot less and will do less damage to your roots, compared to wet heavy perlite. Since you need height control, I'd let them recover from transplant and start growing hard again and once you have a...

Keep your air intake low, down near the top of your pot or tray, then the fresh air will have full travel through your plants on its way out the tube. Use a 250w CMH bulb in each side, they put off less heat compared to a HPS.

For a window sill plant this one is real healthy. If you are going to follow the path of the window light, then this project will take as long as an outdoor grow (oct), and you'll have to control the dark well come the end of aug, to get a decent return. If this is your path then top it soon...

get the scale right on the photos please, got me some old eyes

Yes to all, the best growing method is the one that works within your personal conditions.

Hope your seed adventure works out well. On the issue of dealing with overflow, you may want to reconsider having to take the buckets out of the tent to water, I've grown the NL BB a few times and I always ended up supporting the buds, which could become a real pain late in flower every...

yes as cary said increase exposure over time. And leave the leaf alone when the plant is done with it, it will discard it.

You should be fine. Unless you have a real wimpy stem under these 6 nodes. Otherwise do as directed in entry #1.

Your plants will really like the higher wattage, they should jump. Best way to check when to water is to pick up the cup/bucket, when it's dry you'll know it. From what I've seen the dryer you can get the bucket without any wilting the more aggressive they seem to grow. When you transplant...

Rusty when you say "Lucas Mixture" are you talking about this research?? http://www.angelfire.com/cantina/fourtwenty/articles/profiles.htm

I've heard that GA is less effective than CS on strains that are hard to turn, but being that I've never used GA I can't say myself. And yes my friend took this 8wk strain to 16wk with no effect other than ruining the bud. Great idea, I'll give it a try also this grow. The other 11 sprouts...

I've been trying for the last 2 grows to get some pollen from my clone only line of Maui Wowie. Grow before this one I tried every form of abuse I could to get the bitch to turn, it wouldn't grow balls, a friend also let one go for 18 wks and it wouldn't nut up either. This grow I'm trying...

Sounds like alcohol is the cleaning agent of choice. I picked up a new bottle of everclear yesterday, gonna see how stout of a tincture the oil will make. I had a glass tube and I broke it, can't break the stainless steel.

I've actually blended the 2 styles, I now grow soilponics only.....

The whole idea is to fill that screen, and I can still see yours. I'm sure in a few weeks it will be hard to find, but I'd say you'll be okay. A very close to full screen.

Don't understand this response. This will stink. How did you grow it without smell? Use the same technique.

LED's do work, are they equal to HID?? I'd say NO but can you get what you want most definitely. Photos of LED grows under light and pulled out ready to chop, there is a scrog in there also. These were all grown under a 350w led (1st 3w model which was a combo of 1 & 3 watt diodes), but there...

I've played with a big cfl in a hood and I went back to a tube fixture. Tubes have a much more even light in an area and don't put off as much heat as the big cfl's. I've backed my veg lamp to a 4 bulb T8 fixture, works great for the conditions I have.

I'd keep feeding them, there is no food in the perlite. With a soil grow there is always a little food in potting soil, so you shouldn't add nutes to seedlings. I would continue 1/4 strength till you get 4 sets real leaves, then you can start to bump it up. I always take it easy on a strain I...

I need to clean my BHO extractor, I've never done more than knock off the plant mater from the inside, so you could say it's well seasoned. Here's a few shots of the home built rig. You can see it's a little tacky on the rim and inside the can, and I've run at least 6 more batches since these...
