Second grow finishing with the 1000w and hood im glad i bought. so heres a picture. Amazing what more light and a different nutrient approach will do!! I did end up with more yield on my second grow. Had tons less issues with everything!!

Thats some zen type shit there man. I totally believe you too!

In soil, they dont get very big. Id say they bind up at about 12-14". In hydro however, Ive let them get to about ummm.. 32" or so? Im sure i could let em get even taller, but i prefer shorter to aid in light penetration. THis last grow, they all got really crowded, so im going short next try...

yep, i sucked the stems first, tons of em!! Then I just went berserk tastin everything. haha. It sounds legit, but the water in mine all tasted like clean water. I was figuring on some bitter, but nope. Who knows tho, perhaps advanced nutes in my setup just lends itself to less nute flavor...

Well, the rack has been in use for about 24hrs now. Room temp of about 76 with humidity of about 40%. I dont have a fan blowing directly on them so they wont dry too quickly. Seems like they may take about 4-7 days in here. Perfect!!! This thing is still doing well. I dont notice the rack...

I use this tub for my mothers that dont need much room. They are in net pots since they get killed before moved. Mothers are in the bigger cubes so i dont have to monitor the water as often. It only flows every 24hrs. very light on nutes. In my grow room, ALL my plants go in little 1.5"...

HEYA PINBALL00 Thinkin he may have figured out the problem by now. Resurecting old threads with your first post? AWESOME and welcome to rui!!

If you dont want to top em', switch to 12/12 before they hit 16" tall. If you aint runnin a 1000 watter at 10" or less, i'd flip em now, or top em down and flip when they hit 12". Ive come to the conclusion that one may as well go from 24/0 on clones and seedlings, to 18/6 for veg. then hit em...

Run em at night. 1) cooler temps to deal with 2) 5pm i get off work, check ppms and ph when the babies just wake up 3) look for lighting issues BEFORE they get burning hot 4) Be home if theres an outage or electric/fire issue 5)Sit and read by hps with my babies, they dont like me in there...

harvesting right now. Ill compare the flavor of 2 plants. they were cloned from same mother and treated with the exact same nutes and lights for 14 out of 16 weeks.I began flushing one tub ( 1 day of final phase) fresh water for a week now. The other tub is still eating overdrive. Guess your...

Flowering short aint ya? look like that last one perhaps a tad underfed? Least the big ones leaves seem a tad yellow. Get that light down on those babies!! I wanna see some saw blades growing!! --enough comments? lol Just ordered my 10 pack of big bang. Needed a quick crop for the rotation...

I went on ebay and ended up with a 400w ballast kit for like $50. I put it in a stainless steel box and bought a yieldmaster hood. Got a 400hps bulb from the local electric and there ya go. light, ballast and reflector around $200. I say, spend $130 on a badass light hood, and keep your eyes...

I ended up seeding this plant with Afghan Kush. The buds never really came back in. I got a blue million seeds of this hearty girl, but as for smoke......nada. Not a total loss, and definatley worth keeping my special formula beans. Im a firm believer now that revegging a plant just ruins its...

Use all the lights you got from the start. I harvested about 1oz per plant in 2gallons of soil. Dont know what youre soil volume is, but you could get away with 2 gallons if they gna finish small. Always put plants in seperate tubs. With the small ammount of lights you got, you will defintely be...

I used the weight method. If you can pick up the containers, wait until they "feel" light. Its better to wait a tad long than overwater. The plants will show you when they are thirsty, long before you really harm them. If i watered beforre the soil got completely dry, i noticed fungal gnat...

Didnt seem to matter to me as far as time. I do however push a pipe cleaner down the stem if it seems open after i cut it. Smaller diameter stems seal themselves well, but the big ones are like straws! If i top a biggun and dont close it up, seems the stem dries all the way to the next node...

Been toying with a box myself. I went looking at lumber prices and fukn gagged! My design was gna cost over $100 in just wood! I think your idea is solid. I actually found a cabinet at an antique store for $100. It measures 22x40x60. I was hoping to use it for clone/mother/veg. However, looks...

Spent $100 on the cabinet, about $150 on lights, and about $50 on the ponics tubs. I was going to buy a cabinet like the premades, but it aint stealth if it looks like a spaceship. Besides, custom is always better. lastly is gna be mylar and more cpu fans. Im really hoping im gna get more for my...

Are you sure they mean 8wks total? I thought 8 weeks was the flower time? They look great for 3weeks, but i dont buy the 5more either. I'd run the 18/6 till finish. I keep reading that over 18 doesnt do anything but hurt your light bill. Autoflowers are supposed to flower on 18/6 anyhow. Lets...

I use hydroton and lov it. This stuff dries out incredibly fast. My hydro setup is using coffee (plastic tubs) filled with hydroton. Looks like .75gal each. The rocks do stay wet for more than a day, and I quit watering a big one altogether. The biggun didnt show drooping for about 60hrs. I...
