    Guide to Hydrogen Peroxide in hydroponics systems.

    Holy crap. So, dont breathe the aerated organic nute water! I know the water here is very clean aside from excess chlorine. Since it doesnt seem to be a detriment, perhaps i'll just ignorethe chlorine, and it'll be a non-issue. I aint getting filtered water for a damn WEED! Hell, i drink the...

    Male ?? i think so... im 99.99% sure lol

    Total male. You can catch it a tad sooner :) Ive noticed the balls starting at the top and 1st leaf set down. Males tend to grow taller faster too. I think the top flowers look lumpy. 50% ive noticed, wish you'd beat the odds.

    Guide to Hydrogen Peroxide in hydroponics systems.

    So fatman. Can i learn from you that perhaps using tap water immediately after adding nutes, ph issues aside, will be a benefit since the chlorine will act as h202 would, only more stable? I have been using tap water only, and usually when i flush w/o letting the chlorine dissapate, i dont...

    Vented hoods and vibration issues

    I was told that to lower the fan speed to less than about 10% would burn the motor up.. I even called tjernlund about it, and he said best i could do was get it down to 400 or so. Were they full of shit? Im wondering, how much slower is the Phresh 24" filter gna make my exhaust? If I could turn...

    Guide to Hydrogen Peroxide in hydroponics systems.

    Ummm.. overwatered= Wait longer and they weigh less before watering. I have been using about 1 tablespoon of 3% peroxide in my tap water as I wait 3-4 days for chlorine to dissapate. I bought 35% and diluted it, so dont quote me on exacts. When I blasted my soil with about 1Tbs of 35% per...

    Vented hoods and vibration issues

    I have been running 2 cpu fans for about 2 grows now. Believe it or not, I havent really seen any heat issues UNDER the lamp, to as close as about 8-10" from the plants. The inside of my yieldmaster isnt but a cubic foot at best, so im thinking the little fans running about 120cfm total are...

    Vented hoods and vibration issues

    I have a yeildmaster hood and I'm running a 1000w Hps light w/a remote out of room ballast. Ive purchased a phresh 6" can filter to fit on my 6" tjernlund 660cfm fan. My question is this: i want to run from the filter, pull thru the fan, push thru the hood and out the wall. Even with hoses...

    JACK HERRER:O-G TAHOE KUSH Ebb&Flow 1k HPS (Pictures)

    Hows that 8" phresh filter btw? I just dropped $180 on the 6" to go with my 600cfm fan. Tried the DIY and house still reeks. Anyhow, looking forward to seeing more. Im gna start my first hydro soon and im so worried I'll nuke an expensive strain. Be sure and recap us with any DONTS youve learned...

    Guide to Hydrogen Peroxide in hydroponics systems.

    I used 35% h2o2 in some plants that had major soil rot and compaction issues. I think I mixed it up at about 10Tbs per gallon at 3%. Yup, strong as hell. It actually fizzled in the soil. I saw no bad things happen from my plants, and my little gnat problem is nearly gone. The soil LOOKS like its...

    Lemon Skunk Problem, Need Help +Pics

    Ive found lemon skunk to be a tad finicky. So Ive heard : randomly one into flower will just kinda dwindle. Funny, 2 of the same seed, same conditions, one goes a little wanky. Sry to hear your loss.

    6weeks and nothing but troubles

    They survived, went into flower, went back to veg, and now im in to flower again. These little bitches are taking some crazy abuse. Over ferting, over watering and light changes, ect. . YET, they still may yield something. Oh did I mention they have also had the crap bent out of them for some...

    adding humidity to my GL80

    Glad to hear it. As with most things I'm learning slowly, your room setup will change as needed (on the fly). Unless you've a proven method already in place. Just be careful not to overdo your worrying. Keep us updated and remember, mother nature fluctuates a tad too.

    Seedling Leaves Curling Up

    Confirmed!! Too much light. Now the plants are healthy (enough lol) and dont mind 1000w at 18" So, to start babies, dont overwater, use cfl's until 3rd leafset, repot and switch to 400w or wait a tad and hit em with the 1000w (if stretching) A classic case of less is more in the...

    how low can you go?

    I made the cpu micro grow. It did wonderfully until about 6" tall and i just ran out of damn room. I ended up putting them in the main room to flower, just to see what a tiny plant yields. I must say tho. To get maybe 5 plants up to transplant, this is the ticket. Of course, if i ever figure out...

    Show Me What You Got LST?

    My experience with LSt is that as long as you dont over stress the roots (good anchor at bottom), the plant can take all you can give. Lst anytime as long as the stem isnt hardening. Ive LST'd thru flower. If you overdo the babies, you could break the tap root and stop growth.:bigjoint:

    Shanus' learnins

    Ph fluctuations will stop your plant from growing. If you're in doubt, keep it simple and you'll be much happier. Save your new ideas for a crop that you arent hoping to smoke. Over fertilizing is much easier to do than under fertilizing.

    6weeks and nothing but troubles

    Since repotting, all have shown drastic improvement. After a 2 day shock period, the plants grew 3" in 4 days. They are growing in green again. Say what you will about miracle grow potting soil, but it has seemd to have saved my ass again. My ph with MG/peat moss w/lime is about 6.5 or so. I...
