    Another way to clone

    I like this. I never thought of perlite for a medium. I havent actually gotten into cloning fully because im just starting out. (almost finished on 2nd crop) but ive been doing what i call "hillbilly cloning" just hitting the cut with gel and throwing into a shot glass of water in a 2×4×4 tent...

    First time grower(Durban SA)

    Also with that small of a light source you could build a box maybe to reflect? I have a friend who took a couple of reflective sheets of insulation and what would be like "chip clips" so for around 20 bucks he made a small portable reflective box for his babies. You can get a 4x8 sheet 1in thick...

    How much perilite do i add to soil with none

    I agree with this. I was told 50/50 at first. So thats what i did and at the end of the cycle i found that i was throwing away perlite because a lot had settled to the top and it was almost like a full layer of snow floating on the top of every water/feed. When i cropped i checked out of...

    Ideas for a more "automated" watering?

    I was debating between stakes and surface drippers but i went with the drippers because I am using a coco/soil mix substraint. I was told that the stakes can cause the coco to slowly compress and cause a hole around the surface area of the stake. Just left the store ans hopefully get everything...

    Ideas for a more "automated" watering?

    If it feeds from the bottom how does it ensure that the water/feed reaches the roots on the top end of the pot? I think I am going to do something like Growdict's idea but this intrigues me.

    Ideas for a more "automated" watering?

    I'm about to upgrade in size a bit. Going from 1 light in the bud room to 3 and I'm still running my feed out of gallon jugs. I've been looking into gravity feeders, ph controllers and ect. So my question is what are you guys using/recommend? I'm not trying to fully automate it or anything. Just...

    What kind of training would you do? (Picture)

    If you're only doing the one plant under the light in a tent I recommend following the "West Coast Masters" style topping technique. let it grow until you have 6 branches top it above the sixth, trim the bottom two off and train the 4 top ones to grow sideways to the corners of your tent with...

    Fans and carbon filters

    Sorry havent been on in a bit. But to answer you, As long as the fan isnt higher than the filter youre fine. My fan is 745 cfm. My filter is 750 cfm. If it were vise versa the filter would hold the fan back from pushing the last 5 cfm and the fan would most likely short out or burn up because...

    Fans and carbon filters

    I may be wrong here, Because im also pretty new setting up carbon filters and im actually doing mine right now, but from what ive read and learned so far you should be okay. As long as theyre both 6 inches you can connect them with a hose clamp or with flexiduct and tape. It should still pull...

    Is this a good grow tent kit to use for clones??

    also in addition to @coreywebster 's information, I would like to point out that a tent is not much extra "Security" except in terms of light being seen, these tents are a woven fabric on the back of thin reflective sheets for walls, so if you want to hide it from your parents then the tent is...
