    Galaxy Hydro 300

    So I just pulled the trigger on one of these quality pieces of imported technology. For 110 bucks, why not? Even if it does only give off roughly half the advertised power, I could buy 6 of them for the price of a Kind LED. Is it foolish to think that one of these will outperform CFL by itself?

    CFL lighting. What would be best?

    Much better. Luckily it's dimmable because it would turn that little box into an oven! Really, an LED panel would be great in there. I have seen great results with a cheap UFO light and CFL sidelighting. I recently started converting my builds to an LED/CFL combination looking for bigger/denser...

    CFL lighting. What would be best?

    Those are 100 watt equivalent bulbs, 92 actual cfl watts total. I go to the used home supply house in town and get old bathroom vanity lights. An 8 socket panel can be had for around 6 bucks and then the wiring and mounting is already done. The smaller bulbs would be great for sidelighting once...

    T8 LED conversion

    Has anyone tried the LED conversion tubes? Maybe not the best for a full grow but for supplemental or sidelighting during flower, they can't hurt, right?http://ledt8bulb.com I'm wading into LED and can't swallow the 600 bucks for a quality light yet so maybe these are a cheaper alternative to...

    Red Eye Reduction

    A friend of mine asked me about a strain that won't make her eyes red when she smokes and I really didn't have an answer for her. Anyone know of such a strain that isn't too couchlocky? Is redeye even something that is strain dependent?

    What was the incredible bulks yield? I'm planning on using it for a few guerilla grows myself.

    Your favorite indica to grow.

    Dr. Krippling Incredible Bulk. Couch lock, plus it's a super heavy producer.

    AUTO ADVICE

    You've got the bases covered. Autos indoors make perfect sense if you don't have separate veg and flower rooms. I'd also implement an LST program or a ScrOG for the autos. To me, LST is almost mandatory to keep the plants short and wide.

    Best cheap soil from any hardware store?

    Ace Hardware organic compost with manure. 2 or 3 bucks a bag. It's not a "complete" mix but it'll do for the price. Mix in some moss for drainage and check the PH.

    Needing Help And an over look on my setup

    I do mostly microgrows but I set my screens about 10-12 inches from the soil and use a horticultural tie wire from miracle grow (the only miracle grow product that I use) it doesn't matter if you go over or under or tie it down to a separate anchor. The screen is just an easier way to keep the...

    Needing Help And an over look on my setup

    Using parts A&B together is normally fine. To be safe I use one every other watering. ScrOG is the way to go... I'd do 3 or 4 plants in the aquarium and leave some room to move around in the tent. The LEDs that you have will be plenty for veg. Actually, one of them would be fine for veg and add...

    CFL lighting setup HELP?

    Can you pull that plant apart a bit, some LST could go a long way with it in my opinion. You want as many leaves as possible to have their tops be fully covered by direct light.

    CFL lighting setup HELP?

    Cheapest way to get CFL is to go to a used home center, like a thrift store for building materials, or even Craigslist. Pick up a cheap vanity light fixture or 2. Normally I can get an 8 light fixture for 5 bucks. Depending on how you set it up, you can save a lot by doing that. 16 CFL sockets...

    Attic Grow Security

    If you do end up installing an exterior knob on your door, familiarize yourself with the proper install. Ever use a credit card to open a door? Not if it's installed right.

    Hey Zeus Christmas! That "flashlight" is ridiculous!

    Need Input

    I'm not sold on the LEDs yet. Maybe I'm behind the times? I'd go with a 400 or 600 watt HPS if you have the room. A 600 that can be dialed back would be ideal. Then you could keep your LED in the veg room

    How far into flower is it safe to clean under scrog screen?

    I cut the first/bottom fan leaves when they start to look a little dry. Your plant is probably going to abscize these leaves anyways. Might be 2 weeks into flower or more and I'll still be cleaning up the stems, getting the little popcorn buds off and making for good airflow.
