Got the light I ordered off ebay yesterday... it even came a day earlier than UPS predicted! So, after a 13 hour shift at work, I stayed up 'till 2am completely redoing my closet in stage one of what's going to be a multi-stage process. My plants are now under the HPS at 12/12. It's really...

I have also read that they can take up to 10 days to crack.

From what I've read, it's desirable to have the pots up off the bottom of the table so they're not sitting in water. I've seen various ways of doing this, from expensive rubber mats to work-intensive DIY screens and rails. What about using a thin layer of sterilized gravel? Seems like that'd...

I'm new to growing in general, but I've been running an eb and flow system. Done a lot of research on the forums, and my plants are doing lovely, so I'll see what I can do to help. I think a lot of the more experienced growers are just tired of answering the same questions over and over again...

So, the little cap I had that kept my pump from spraying water 4 feet up into the air came unglued... and made a fountain in my closet in the middle of the night. I of course didn't notice until this morning. The entire place is drenched. I did what I could to towel everything dry and now...

I've been a little remiss in keeping up my journal, but nothing too incredibly exciting is going on. I haven't seen any bugs since I flushed those two down the toilet. The plants look awesome, and smell terrific. I didn't originally plan on vegging my plants this long, but I'm waiting on the...

Thanks, Bugs, for having a little faith, and answering my questions. Believe me, I've read my share of idiot posts on this forum. This one's my favorite(I think she gets slack for being a girl). https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/123650-growing-pot-easy.html The first post and...

I found beatles on my plants... 2 of them. I tried to take pictures, but they wouldn't hold still. They're about 3/4" long, black/dark brown, with a couple of fluorescent orange stripes. There doesn't seem to be any damage to the plants... maybe they're just there because of the lights? Any...

So, I've gotten everything I think I need... just waiting on my light to come in the mail. Now that I've got a good PH meter, and a PPM meter, and my hydroponic system is running, I have some newbieish questions, but please bear with me. How do you know how much nutes to use? I'm using...

Exactly 1 week, including the weekend.

No one replied, but I decided to go with them anyway. They were quick, professional, very polite, and I'm completely satisfied. I haven't grown the Frostwreck or Golden Skunk I purchased yet, but I'm looking forward to seeing how they turned out.

Here they are... How do they look for 3 weeks old? Should they be bigger? I'm pretty happy with them regardless. I'm thinking the tall one may be male, and the short bushy one female, though of course, I hope they're both female. The one might just be tall and gangly because it germinated...

Dunno if you consider it Midwest or not, but Montana has medical marijuana... not that anyone lives there.

Alright, so I found everything I need on ebay for way cheaper than the hydro store(at least according to their website). I even ordered a light. It's an interchangeable 400w. I know, everyone keeps telling me bigger for the future, but for now, I'd rather not deal with the extra heat, and...

So, during my free time at work yesterday, I made 6 trips to 2 hardware stores(you were right... it's easy to forget stuff, or get the wrong stuff), horribly abused their return policy(bought tools and then returned them when I was done), committed a misdemeanor(the lady at the nursery said they...

So, the 'yay' is that I just remembered I have a change jar that probably has $300 in it... boy am I doing some crazy shopping this weekend, prolly get the whole setup going. The 'nay' is... my plants have had 0 growth in the last 24 hours, even less than when the rockwool was completely...

First, are there HID ballasts that have variable watts? Like so I can plug a 400w bulb in for now, but upgrade to a 1000w later? There any way to get an idea of how much heat a light's going to produce? What's the smallest area(assuming decent ventilation, but not direct cooling) that you...

pump, 3/4 inch hose/fittings, 2'x2' container of some-sort, florabloom, 600w ballast/bulb/reflector(I realized the price is pretty much the same regardless of wattage), panda film, 2x? digital timer(the mechanical timers I have are rated for something like 2700w, and I can set them to within 15...

Ok, list updated. The reason though that I was planning on using a 250w is because the area I'll be using is long and narrow, and I'm going to have the pools layed out end to end eventually. I figured anything bigger than a 250w would be wasted. Also, the less atmosphere control I have to do...

I think I'll try to keep these ones going as they are while I set up an ebb and flow system. I may even try to just flower them now, unless you think that'd be a bad idea. I have a tub that is 12"x18"(6 plants) that I could use. I was hoping to find something that was 2'x2'(16 plants, which I...
