    Newbie with Limited Space...Advice needed.!!

    still new to indoor growing, and haven't had much experience with anything other than cfl's, so I don't know what kind of heat the MH or the HPS will put off. I would suggest that your lights for the vegetative stage be the same lumen output as the flowering stage(or less than the flowering...

    Newbie with Limited Space...Advice needed.!!

    i am growing in a 15 inch deep X 2 ft wide X 34 inch tall space...was setup for 1 plant...I now have 1 clone in it also. I use cfl's(now at appx 320Watts) they don't get very hot(room stays 65-75) I don't know how much heat a 200wattHID will put off, but I would guess more than the cfl's...I had...

    Can I make cuttings? +rep!!

    you could clone now if you wanted to...some of your lower branches are long enough. I usually have more success with about a 3 inch clone than I do a 6 inch although many prefer that(it's all up to you). I would recommend cutting at a straight angle from the plant(less damage to the plant) and...

    Smoking seedlings? or will they survive the cold outside?

    lol, you could smoke it, but it wont do anything...you have to wait for a plant to flower(bud) in order to get the THC that gets you high...

    Newbi 20 day old bags seeds 400 watter

    I wouldn't use the 4100k(mostly green light) it will not benefit the plant much. Your warm white tubes should have a lower kelvin rating...I would guess about 3000k, but that would be better than the 4100k for both veg and flower(better for flowering). I would add the 23 watt cfl's I believe...

    Purple Erkel First Grow (PICS)

    my plant does that on the spots I take clones from...I believe it's just the plants way to heal...IE the sap that comes from the wounds on trees.

    ok, so here are some updated pics...taken about 10 minutes ago. Day 47 of flowering. Kinda hard to see where its turning purple. Plant is about 23 inches tall...

    First grow any input would be appreciated

    well, all is still going pretty good, i've had lots of leaves yellowing(using up the nutrients) and have pruned quite a bit of them off the plant. Although I still don't know what strain it is, I am guessing it is (grape ape x?) As one of the 3 seeds I originally started had come from some...

    First grow any input would be appreciated

    ok, just switched my plan to an 11/13 cycle...I've seen a lot of people talk about it and decided to try for myself... I expect an overall reduction of yield with faster maturity... I have some more clones coming and I am trying to make room for them... I will update with some pics later.

    first time grow see pics!!

    no, never heard anything about that...i've heard of aeroponics, but don't know much about it. I would think they would be similar. and as the roots go I should have read the original post you were referring to when you said what you did(lazy, didn't want to go back a page)... I check holes...

    first time grow see pics!!

    roots do need oxygen, but in the water that the roots uptake...the more oxygen in the water, the more the plant can absorb. the basis behind hydroponics...roots in oxygenated water

    13/11 Flowering

    lazy people use google...just type "13 11 marijuana" you will have plenty of results to choose from, stay away from the forums, listent to the seedbanks and the scientific research sites... 13/11 will result in an increased yield and longer flowering time...11/13 will result in lower yield and...

    Newbi 20 day old bags seeds 400 watter

    the light may be an issue, one 40watt fluorescent(appx 4000-5000 lumens?) for 5 plants may slow your growth considering the space it would need to light, but they will grow. try to keep a minimum of 3000 lumens per sq ft of space.(as plants get taller you may have to move some lights lower...

    Newbi 20 day old bags seeds 400 watter

    people say you can and i'm sure it is possible to clone using only water. I use cloning gel I got at the hydro store(i forget the brand) and it worked ok, all but 1 clone rooted. I've always been told it is bad to mix soil, I mixed soils for 1 of my plants that ended up male but it looked good...

    PC Grow Box Small Scale

    it will hlengthen the transition from veg to flower... switching from blue to red when you switch to 12/12 makes a faster transition... so harm, no, but increase time yes... well anyway, i'm getting worked up over nothing, sorry if I couldn't be of much help and hope your grow goes well

    PC Grow Box Small Scale

    http://www.iit.edu/~smile/ph9709.html go ahead and try it...ok now you see light rays do mix... mixing red and blue rays will make purple and purple will give off an equal amount of red and blue light... which will give you somewhere between the 2 ideals Can I ask how many people on here want...

    newbie with cfls need info on height

    there is a difference between maturity and being able to flower your plant, you can grow a plant on a 12/12 cycle from seed...my plant was 28 days when i flowered...of course it wasn't mature __________________

    I get that sometimes, it may be insects eating at the leaves while their smaller and once the leaves have grown you see the damage...
