    When to transplant for 8w veg/8w flower?

    You want some good roots before you transplant, they will hold the dirt together. Right now you'd turn the cup over you'd have a hand full of soil, & you'd stress the plant unnecessarily. Need at least 2 wks in a cup but 3 is better. You might even be able to top in the cup. I personally...

    But if you HAVE to. cut them 1/2" from the stock. Don't rip or snap them off the stem by hand. But see rule 1 above.

    I think they should be like green stamps (for those old enough ) and you could redeem them for useful items like, ph meters, nutes, or even seeds. :-P

    Leaves are drying up and becoming really brittle.

    FFOF doesn't have enough nutes to burn. I start clones in it all the time.

    Leaves are drying up and becoming really brittle.

    Your plant will rest anyways even under 24/0 light but if you could manually swithch the light it would help the plant's stress. If you can't afford nutes or superthrive then don't sweat it there is enough food in FFOF soil for awhile, the superthrive will help with the roots but won't be the...

    Leaves are drying up and becoming really brittle.

    Okay you have severely stressed the plant. You've taken it from hundred's of thousands of lumens to a couple of thousand. And when you dug it up out of the ground you most likely severed 90% of the roots it had going. I'm not saying you lost 90% of your root mass, just that you most likely...

    Beanz's Redemption Grow 2011

    This was a great link J. Even though it took me 2 days of my free time to read it all. It confirmed several thoughts I had and proved some of my assumptions to be myth. I really got a lot out of the fermentation process, and I'm going to try to flood one of my NL plants to see if it makes a...

    scrog first grow

    Those temps are fine, 86 is a little high but your plants will survive, and the yield won't suffer. But the canoeing leaves sound like a lock out and constant watering won't help. I believe that cupped and curled up leaves is a sign of mg lockout. check out this thread I'm sure it's covered...

    Closet LED Grow box idea- Thoughts?

    Those LED bulbs are toys, the diodes are only 1/10 watt. Good LED lamps are at least 1 watt diodes, and the better ones are 3w. If you are building your own box and heat is going to be an issue. Then I'd recommend getting a multi-bulb T5 fixture, and build your box to fit the lamp fixture. ie...

    scrog first grow

    It looks to me like you have 4 - 2 gal bags under a 2 ft square screen, with the screen filled to 50%. So what are you waiting for, flip it now. With the size of your screen 2 plants would have filled it up. Flip now and your next 2 wks will be busy keeping these girls spread out. Example: 4...

    First time grower with fluorescent lighting!

    With cfl's it helps a bunch to try and keep your canopy height as even as possible. or as cranker mentioned lights lower when you start to bud. If it were me I'd top that pretty plant 3 nodes down then tie the 2 new tops down a little, to get them to grow horz. I know with the 1st grow its just...

    Lighting question, last item before I can start my grow.

    Line up 4 - 6500K bulbs, 92w will be plenty for a computer case. When you flip you'll have to mix in more colors. If you haven't seenPenyajos case grow you should check it out, it will most likely answer most of your ...

    does any body know how the dewpoint works

    The dew point is the temperature to which a given parcel of humid air must be cooled, at constant barometric pressure, for water vapor to condense into water. The condensed water is called dew. The dew point is a saturation temperature. But I don't get what you are trying to do. With an indoor...

    fan/carbon filter

    Again this depends upon your set up. If you have a sealed room and are using CO2 then the carbon filter will discharge back into the room. If you are using an interior space with no access to the outside then you will be discharging back into living space. If you are asking what is the best...
