    the 10/10 theory

    I just put some more thought into this and you could do this manual with a 7 day timer, you have 6 hours and 40 minutes on with 12 hours off. Somebody check my math but I believe this works, you end up with 9 cycles in a 7 day week so your harvest would be in 7/9 of its normal flower time. 63...

    the 10/10 theory

    I have been looking at an alternative light cycle for a long time but have not pulled the trigger, however, in my past research (I did a lot on this subject) I did come across some good info on it. For one, you can get a timer to do this for you...

    Who is DJ short?

    I just took the class in Pasadena, well day 1 of 2 was today. The guy knows his stuff and comes off well spoken and by the way he is rather tall, 6 foot I would guess.

    I'm in perpetual fungus gnat hell...nothing is working.

    use gnatrol. it is a brown granular gnat killer that kills the larve which eats your root hairs. at same time use sticky traps for the adults. this is all you need and it works. I think gnatrol is omri listed too so it is very safe.

    Reverse Osmosis

    In an attempt to keep water bill down I am wondering about reducing the amount of waste water from my reverse osmosis filter. I was thinking about having the waste water feed into a holding tank and then putting in a submersible pump to hook back up to the RO filter and filter the waste water...

    Is less than 50 watts per square foot ok?

    cool tubes work good if they covering small area, so if using multiple 600's they should be fine. if using 1000's over larger area I would go with a traditional hood to better cover canopy.

    Is less than 50 watts per square foot ok?

    If they are less than 4 feet tall, I would use 3 600's and get a power fan to pull heat out of your hoods so you can get them real close to the canopy. Like an 8" fan. Depending on which bulb you use you will get 145,000 lumes from each 1000 watt = 290,000 total from two spots. The 600's...

    Is less than 50 watts per square foot ok?

    I would suggest buying 2 1000 watt lights over a 4x8 area. You will get same yield as that big old room you trying to do with less plants, less nutes, less work and better tighter buds. Don't listen to these guys trying to get a lower wattage light to give you more grow area. 1000 watt is max...

    So Cal Edison Report High Electric Usage?

    Electricity in So Cal is very expensive if you go over your baseline allotment. You climb to $.30 per KW. I have calculated that the 6 1000 watt flower on 12/12 and 7 400 watt on 18/6 along with AC, duhumidifier and fans will run about $1,800 a month. Holy S__T! Although this is a legal...
