    How far should SCROG net be from pot?

    When I started out scrogging I followed a guide by another user which stated that the net should be 9 inches above your media. As the years have rolled on I have scrogged with my nets lower than that & higher than that. I don't think there is a wrong or right height for your net as long as it...

    Clone Mom Root Pruning

    I keep small mother plants in 1 litre pots & root prune roughly every 6 months. There are a few guides online for keeping small mums, often referred too as keeping bonsai mums. As long as you prune the top a bit & the roots every now & then you can keep a plant in a small pot indefinitely. If...

    What's your gram per watt?

    On my first grow with cobs I hit just over 1 gpw. My best has been 1.5 gpw. It's also strain dependent & grow style dependent. Im no expert grower so if I can hit 1 gpw you should be able to hit 400g for 400 watts. Unless you're a kacker ☺

    Thoughts on 6"hyper fan??

    Yeah I forgot to mention the power consumption. As SoOLED pointed out these have a really low wattage draw. On low, less than a light bulb. My 8" is on low & draws just under 10w! But yeah listen to one before buying a non stealth version otherwise you may find the noise a bit of an issue.

    Thoughts on 6"hyper fan??

    I agree with the above. I technically only needed a 6" fan but opted for the 8" version so I could run it on a very low setting & still get the air movement I wanted. The Hyper fan are EC fans though so a variac will not work on them. The noise they make at low speed is similar to that of a jet...

    Outdoor Dinafem Critical + 2.0 project

    Yeah I know. There are sativa dominant phenos to be found in there though. You may have to pop a few seeds to find one but it's well worth it.

    Thoughts on 6"hyper fan??

    I found that the entire hyper fan range makes an annoying whining noise when you set the speed to a low setting. Much louder than the noise created by moving air. I ended up going for the stealth version which I cannot fault, bar the price.

    Geyapex LM-P4 Unboxing and Under the Hood

    As others have said the wiring is a little sloppy but not the end of the world for someone capable of cleaning that up providing the unit is sold at the right price. If being sold as a premium priced product then it would be a bit of a piss take. My biggest concern would be heat. I may be being...

    Ripper Haze from Ripper Seeds

    Haven't tried it yet but have a pack to try at some point. I'm a bit of a seed hoarder so have these amongst hundreds of others to get to at some point. I have the Ripper Haze on the go at the moment, early veg stage. From memory I think I read somewhere that Acid Dough is Lilly x an OG Kush of...

    Outdoor Dinafem Critical + 2.0 project

    I've been growing this strain indoors for about a year now. Have yet to find a strain that ticks as many box's as this. Pretty much a holy grail strain & severely under rated. Sativa dom, done in 6-7 weeks, huge yield, virtually indestructible & an amazing buzz.

    Autopot 4 pot system

    I've been using the same 6mm tubing for over a year now. I use drip clean throughout the grow & in-between grows the tubes get flushed out with a watered down bleach mix. Salt build up can be a bit of a problem. Where the ph of your res can be quite stable the ph of the nutrient mix in the...

    Autopot 4 pot system

    I used one of these. Still do to an extent. Reduced it down to a 2 pot system with a smaller res. They work very well & require probably the least maintenance out of any grow system I know of. That said there is learning curve to using them. My 1st run was terrible, 2nd run bit better but still...

    Calling all UK growers for help

    Hey KaylasKush I'm UK based & have been using Maxibloom for some time. I couldn't find a local shop stocking this so bought it off *bay & had it imported from Europe. Cost about £30 all in from memory. I tried Maxibloom based on the numerous threads online about the KISS method with Maxibloom...

    Is this enough LED for now?

    @aquanaut I am growing in identical dimensions with 8 x cxb3590. I asked this question on another forum a while ago. The response I got back from a well known member was: @1400mA - 25-35cm @700mA - 20cm I'm only on my 2nd grow now with these lights. On my first grow I did, I ran the cobs at...

    Is this enough LED for now?

    Thanks for the responses guys. I did a little research online & found an article about running LED grows warmer because of the lack of IR which matches what you've said heere. Makes sense. The suggestion was to run at 28C minimum! So now during the summer the struggle is not going to be keeping...

    Is this enough LED for now?

    Interesting read. My curiosity was tweaked by Cobkits & Randomblame’ s comments about temps. I hate to do it but I gonna have to ask, can you dumb that down a bit for me? I don’t really understand the graph that Randomblame posted & am also like Aquanaut of the old school way of doing things...

    My first CXB 3590 run...

    Hey PerroVerde nice work on the grow. I was considering bolting some UVA diodes onto my cxb array as well but could only find 390-400nm from reputable suppliers. Did find some 365nm on *bay but they were no name brands. Where did you get your UVA diodes? p.s. did you notice any difference in the...
