    Portable AC.. can i hook up ducting to the attic

    I would not think pulling air from the attic to supply the A/C would be a good idea. Once summer hits it would not work out so well. I would let it pull from the room or another place like a window.

    Yes, very much so. I have a 20" pedestal fan mounted to the ceiling and a 20" wind tunnel on the floor. Total air movement :clap:

    Watering? Nutes? Runt plant

    I run with a .5 dark period mid day also. As for the distance the light is from the plants I use the back of my hand as a gauge. If I can feel the heat from the HPS on my hand it is too warm for the plants. My room hits anywhere between 82 and 92 degrees during lights on depending on the temps...

    what's your longest flowering time?

    180 days. I was getting ready to move and wanted to keep my strains. CS and 180 days gave me seeds to bring with me. Normally 60-70 days but I'm sure I harvest early :dunce:

    I have a huge nutrient and ph lockout problem. Off the charts, literally..

    Can you post a picture? I would venture to say you are over feeding your plants.

    I have a huge nutrient and ph lockout problem. Off the charts, literally..

    Soil buffers PH. The water coming out of the soil is not an indication of soil PH. Forget about the PH of the run off and read the plant.

    Watering? Nutes? Runt plant

    I run 600 watt cool tubes and get that same heat stress if my lights are within 24 inches of the plants.

    Most efficient pots

    I am with Dr Who. I used to use fabric pots but have switched back to plastic. I also do not like having to pour the water back into the soil just to watch it run down the sides again. I also ran into root issues using them. I use 18 gallon tubs for flowering along with some 3.8 gallon pots and...

    The senior citizen old hippie growers club

    The wife wanted me to use just for men so we did it. Never again! It looked like I had been eating poo and had it all over my face. I keep my hair 1/4" so the only grey you can see is my facial hair. Currently 51 years old living in a 80 year old body.:lol:

    Curiosity has me here. I have flowered many a mag def plant and the ash is always the same. I have also smoked some not quite dry weed and had some nasty black ash left in the bowl. I always figured it was a moisture issue. Off to search cigar forums Lol. :peace:

    Using Boveda on Overdried Bud

    My grow rooms and drying closet sit between 27% and 37% humidity depending on the temperature. I hang dry for 2-3 days then jar it and burp. I also have short term memory loss and forget to jar before it is really dry some times. I recently did the later and filled 8 one quart jars with damn...

    WARNING! Digital/ Electronic ballasts can get you busted! The A.M. radio test!

    Yes. The cord between the ballast and light acts as an antenna radiating the harmful signal. I hardly doubt any of the people around you are having issues because of your ballast unless someone has a two-way radio set up next door. The only things in my house that are effected are my radios. I...

    Flushing. White ash. Post your pics & method

    In on the first page! :mrgreen: I'm burning a bowl right now while I cook breakfast. I can see that the ashes are mostly white with a bit of black around the edges. Nope, now mostly white. :bigjoint: Never flushed a plant in my life. All you need to do to get white ash is to burn all...

    Watering plants with turtle water

    I vacume the gravel when I clean mine and what comes out is dark brown to black. She is about 6" or more in length (shell). She is constantly shedding shell and eats like a pig.

    Watering plants with turtle water

    I have a decent sized red eared slider. I clean her tank weekly. I don't think I would use the water that comes out of mine. It's some funky stuff. Doesn't smell right.

    ANY ONE TRY TO HARVEST THEIR OWN FEM SEEDS

    Ive done it. I needed a way to keep my strains when we were house hunting. I didn't want to move live plants so I made seeds. That was a year and a half ago and I still have some of those seeds.:clap:

    Organic soil fertilizers to bring out the full flavor of cannabis?

    Here is my set up for brewing. Fits in a 5 gallon bucket. Super simple, works great and no air stones to clean. Don't glue it together so you can take it apart and clean it. You can see the air pump hanging there. I had to add the small adjustable valve to create enough back pressure to quiet...

    Best soil from lowes?

    Awesome, thanks for the info. I generally run organic water only. I have two of my own crosses that appear to be hungry beotches because they fade out within the first two weeks of flower where as my others don't fade till week 7 or 8. Figured I would push some food at one while adding more...
