    Shortest time you should veg.

    As long as you want, really. If you give it the right nutrition and 24hr lighting, it will veg forever, technically. It's all based on your space and/or lighting and time constraints. My first grow was clones given to me by an old friend from Kentucky. I only grew mine to 3 feet because I...

    Shortest time you should veg.

    There are alot of variables: nutes, atmosphere, strain, all that stuff. Perhaps a more experienced member could make the judgement call with that kind of info.

    Shortest time you should veg.

    hell, with that kind of light, I would let 'em get as tall as possible. All the way to max safe distance from the lights mounted as high as they will go, with a few more inches just for safety.

    Shortest time you should veg.

    I guess I should clear that up. It would depend on what kind of lighting you are using.

    Shortest time you should veg.

    If height isn't an issue, you just answered you're own question. There has to be a max height you can go if you're inside.

    Energy bill

    I've got a 250w MH, air pump,water pump, circulating fan, humidifier, and 2 inline exhaust fans running 24/7. I pay almost 9 cents per kilowatt/hr and my bill actually went down $3 dollars because I wanted to try and even out the bill by installing flourescent bulbs throughout my house. Turns...

    Shortest time you should veg.

    If you're gonna use a 400 watter, I would let them get to the three feet you mentioned. You would get maximum yield that way.

    Temp and humidity

    I had the same humidity you had. I bought a cheap small room humidifier from target for 16 dollars. It holds a gallon of water and I fill it every night. Keeps my humidity about 60% or so.

    HPS/MH conversion bulbs

    Has anyone here used a conversion bulb? I'm thinking about getting a HPS bulb that works in a MH system. Trying to stay a little cheap instead of getting a switchable ballast. Just wanting to know if anyone has any experience with them.

    Made mistake, fixed it, now plants are stalled

    After consulting with my local hydroponics store, they have given me some hormone/booster stuff. Worked like a champ. Plants started going back up within a few hours.

    Having to deal with law enforcement real soon

    Lot's of good posts here. The important thing is to keep this shit in perspective. The popo know you have a grow light and room/closet/hutch/barn/whatever. They aren't stupid, as everyone here has already stated. Now the perspective part: THE WEED FAIRY IS NOT GOING TO COME AND TAKE CARE OF...

    Mildew

    you can get a small room dehumidifier from walmart for like $40-50. Put it on the lowest setting. I'm the opposite of you, though. I have to humidify my grow hut. If I don't, I'm at 20-25% humidity.

    Made mistake, fixed it, now plants are stalled

    Hi all. I recently made a big newbie mistake and jacked up the pH in my bubbleponics system. I had the usual symptoms and read the threads here on what to do. I flushed the system, including the pots, and put in fresh distilled water with a 5.85 pH and only used 1/4 of my regular nutrient...

    Two Lighting Questions

    Howdy all. I'm on my first grow and my seedlings are taking off quite well thanks to the info on this site. I have a couple of questions though. 1.) I'm using a 150w CFL growlight right now, growing six 50/50 sativa/indica Crystal Rain seeds. I've read and seen that the light should be left...
