    Any Tips On CFL's ? Please don't talk about Hps/HID/MH

    Hey All, I think CFL's are great! Yes it takes a lot more thought when placing lamps and building a grow box, but my outcome has always proven awesome. Tight, resin filled buds. I'm the kind of person who to constantly likes to improve my setup. This is my third grow box and a pretty much...

    Time to feed?

    Hey All, Below I attached two pictures of my Auto Blueberry. She was doing great and starting to flower, but earlier this week I noticed considerable yellowing of the mature fan leaves. She is still very healthy from what I can see. At first I thought maybe I was overwatering her but the media...

    CFL Grow Box

    Hey Joe, It's basically a plastic bladder wth a tube that run's down into my box with four adjustable dripper's (comes with 6) and a stop at the end. I got sick of always checking my soil before work or when I'm pressed for time so I found this system online at Two Wests and Elliot in the U.K...

    Hey Deus, Even my outdoor plant is in my own soil mix. All premium potting soil's are awesome. I have ton's of house plants and I've used pretty much everything on the market and they all have preformed great. Remember, it must be a "premium potting soil", that is certified. This also includes...

    Hey All, My Blueberry seed, the one I'm currently growing was put in good premium potting soil after germination. She is now in Miracle Grow-Expand 'n' Grow. It's the best stuff on the market right now in my opinion. This stuff has alot of Coco, sand, peat and everything else needed for...

    CFL Grow Box

    Thanks B166ER420, I was tossing around the idea of painting the box before this grow, but my results were so good with my first plant I made the decision to keep it the way it is. I know I'm loosing some light but the material is poster board and is a pretty breathable material.So my thinking...

    First grow journal cfl home built grow box.

    Hey Deputy, I think with a flush between every second or third feeding should resolve any type of salt build-up (or just heavier waterings). I think the pros out weigh the cons here. It still beats moving everything around at watering time. Everything has a way around it, we would'nt be here...

    Speed seeds?

    Hey Trevstr, Good to hear from you. My little Blueberry Automatic from Speed Seeds is also doing well. She's a little stinker. Inexpensive seed but very vigorous. I'm impressed so far. Do you have a link for your journal? Thanks Sherman420

    Hey Deputy, Your little baby is looking awesome! Did they send you a female seed? I started this seed in potting soil. She is going to go in coco next week, also I'm going to use my drip bag irrigation system this time around. Hopefully it doesn't flood my box, I've got to adjust the drip...

    Question about a Porch Light and Vegging

    Hey my friend, Could you elaborate a bit more on your growing information? It's kind of hard to tell what exactly is going on if we do not have ample info. The porch light will not be much help, it's nothing compared to natural sunlight. It will probably be detrimental if anything to your...

    Do Not Buy Feminized Seed!

    Hey All, Am I wrong but if you're feminized plant goes hermie and pollinates some of you're bud, the resulting seed should also be feminized. So therefore you should still have a perpetual grow with these seeds, as long as you are careful and not let the whole plant turn to seed. Just a...

    Hey Brother, Yeah I know I put a lot of information in that post. I kinda start rambling and can't stop. Sorry my friend. That's a perfect mix. I would still wait on the feeding, the seedlings should be able to feed themselves for a week or two. I've just started using coco myself, maybe...
