oh yea.... what about some chain and a few quicklinks? $2-$3

depends on the strain and stresses in your environment. 2 weeks prior to harvest is the recommended time to flush, but only after working with a strain in your growroom will you be able to predict exactly when you will harvest. I've had plants stay a healthy green right up till harvest, and...

I use a gutted $4 window blind, hasn't failed me in 2 years.

Well, I grow for personal use and I harvest more than I can use. Since I have a strict no-selling policy, extra bud is given out to friends. I also like to take my plants out of the closet for examination and pruning, so why would I want to put any time and effort into scrog?

It's safe as long as you wired it right. I built a similar rig over a year ago and it's been running 24/0 with no problems. Listen to people who have actually built such things, instead of people who are afraid to. :D Good luck man, your whole setup is nice!!!

I saw a large grow using DIY 4x4 tables with 8" sides filled with dirt, 12/12 from clone, 1 clone per sq ft. To get the dirt+roots out after harvest, he chops it up into cubes... To answer your question though, an organic soil mix will meet your requirements. Slow release additives such as...

You shouldn't have put it up in Newbie Central if you didn't want useless advice. ;)

There are several ways to determine if your plant needs water. The most popular seems to be going by the weight of the pot. Wait till the pot feels light when you pick it up before you water again. Don't worry about underwatering, the plant will tell you in no uncertain terms when the soil is...

I've been growing in my noob box for 2 years now, I built/wired a few things from basic materials so if you want to know how I did something, just ask!!! I can't wait to see your design, I love exchanging ideas on builds and setups. protip: gutted window blinds make perfect light hangers :leaf:

Is that you peacefulkid?

It's a very recent transplant.

...or this

yes, they're $2-$3. I had to order mine online because I can't find them locally.

I use zip ties to support heavy buds, had 2 bent branches last week.

5600k work just fine for me. For 3 seedlings, I'd use 4 26w 5600k CFLs but that's just me. Socket splitters are great too... remember to keep them a couple of inches from the bulbs... if your seedlings are in party cups, it makes things a lot easier.

You need some quality soil and maybe some more lights. How many watts of lighting are you currently running?

OMG it worked!!!!!!!

What I mentioned are things you would want to do anyway, if you own the house. :)

LOL, I did all that for a 4x4 growbox. Anyway, I have an a/c on my flowering box to regulate temps, and that keeps my growroom humidity at 50% or lower, so I don't use a de-humidifier, but when I did it kept my entire basement at 40%. I wouldn't put a de-humidifier IN my growroom because it's...
