    First Sativa Dominant Grow, in a 5 x 5 Foot Tent How Many Should I Grow?

    5x5x 7.5 hmm. thats about the dimensions Im running with a mover at the moment. Im thinking about 16-20 and flip em to flower around 24-30 inches. I had a lot going on at once, hence so many nute totes. At 30+ plants, that area was getting a little crowded. I usually flipped em to flower at...

    First Grower, 12 Week Flowering? Help

    Looks like the buds at the very bottom of my mature bushes. I usually cut down to those and give em a chance to finish out. Reasoning is the lower nugs dont get enough light penetration to properly finish out as quickly. Im not sure that true, but youre entire plant looks like my baby bottom...

    My Plants Get Droopy at the End of Light Cycles. Help!

    Worth Making a Box?

    Found a cabinet laying around. It houses 200w of hps and enough room for about 4 good mothers or 2 small finishers. I had big plans, but ended up needing it for moms. It hold light out so I could place it in the flower room. With one cpu fan it maintains about 7deg above room temps.

    Tiny Issue With My Oldest Sprout

    If your fairly sure watering isnt the cuplrit, Id say add some nutes, remember the b vitamin, and give it a week. Cant judge an adult by the seedling so much. Ive seen the strangest seedlings go crazy awesome about the 3rd week.

    Fan Question

    Exactly! Small movement, not blown over. Escessive transpiration can lead to leaves drooping. Not sure about wind/stem myth.

    What are the Pro's and Con's to Topping?

    Its a WEED!! Cut the top off it, it will recover! Ive done both lst and topping in MANY forms. Topping is what i reefer to when Im growing in 7' ceilings. Once you top it, they like to get bushier instead of taller. I usually wait and top above the 3rd real leaf set. I think other factors have...

    Question on my pc fan adapter!

    add up the MA or wattage of the fans. if it doesnt exceed 80% of the adapters output, youre good to go. Hopwever, a 15v output may burn up your 12v fans. Whats the ma or wattage stated on the back of the fans? maybe I just dont really understand the info your giving me. Best of luck to ya

    The Widow, from seed.

    Got widow in my collection atm. I only use cfl for cloning. Once the ladies take footing, i switch to 400hps at about 24". within about 7-10 days of transplant, I lower to 12" and thus it remains until flowering. No need to push the limits on your 400w. It will do wonderfully for your ladies as...

    How do i get more crystals on my indoor?

    Start with a great strain. (special Kush and acapulco resin nicely) Use a great nutrient setup and keep humidity down. Ive learned that some strains just go Solid white with trichs, and some don't. You are asking a question that has about 1million viables to the correct answer. best of luck to ya
