    I am paying far to much for power,what can i do to pay less?

    We've been using the Sunlight Supply 315w Light Emitting Ceramics (LEC) in our veg rooms and I must agree that they kill it. According to the adverts they replicate the full spectrum of natural sunlight better than many other lighting systems. From our limited experience we've seen improved...

    Are you speaking of the multiple linear regression (MLR) model included in the ECe Sampling Assessment and Prediction program package developed by the US Salinity Laboratory? To answer your question with the MLR above in mind, no. We've never paid much attention to the salinity/moisture...

    Does that mean certain posters will have less time to try to convince us that they are the end all, grand pooh-bah emeritus, ambassador of all things cannabis related? God, I hope so... my small brain hurts...

    Cloning Issues

    We use RO water, some very light clone feed solution and a tiny bit of B-1. Total PPM less than 250-400 max. We also pre-soak the rockwool cubes for a few days with 5ml per gallon of silica, cal-mag, urea and B-1 before inserting the clones. Once under the dome they are not touched for at least...

    Great White Premium Mycorrhizae?

    We also use Great White when initially transplanting clones into their vegging pots. They then go under 315w LEC's for a few weeks, are topped and readied for flower. Once they reach the desired height we transplant into larger, 5 gallon tall buckets and move them into the bigger rooms under...

    Plant advice? (topping or lollipopping)

    Those look like a heavy Indica strain based on the short, fat leaves and squat stature of the overall plant. I'd not expect them to stretch too much vertically, especially if they're not under a good, strong 1000w light. Putting them in as big of a container as possible will give the root ball...

    Too bad this forum is filled with such vitriol. If you could put aside your hate for just a while you might actually learn something couch. What did I ever write to prompt you to such insults? Must you be so vulgar or do you just not know any better? I tried to provide an honest answer and add a...

    Thanks UB. Second link you've provided to Jack's and both were spot on. We've been working with the JR Peters products for some time now. Good stuff and a fraction of the cost of hydro store products. Simply using their line of professional fertilizers requires one to learn the fundamentals of...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    Getting on and staying on the top shelf is HARD. What we've learned is that the California medical-grade cannabis market can be a cold, cruel bitch. She don't care how hard we worked, or what nutes we used, or what newfangled light system was running, or how much we loved the strain and that all...

    Too late. Already been treated with our favorite Dr. Pepper. We use different sodas on different strains. Some of the OG strains don't like the clear colas. And Mountain Dew seems to make the leaves get all twisty. Root Beer seems to be liked by all the plants but if we give 'em too much they...

    Question about curing

    Oh, and after the above process we store in 5-gallon food grade sealed buckets. We burp every now and then but it's usually gone before we have too long to play with it. Smaller amounts we store in sealed glass jars. :bigjoint:

    Question about curing

    I wrote this once in reply to a post grow processing question. I've had the opportunity to use it several times on similar questions. I think it can also be helpful in this thread. Here ya' go: Did you wet trim or dry trim? Wet trimming is when you trim immediately after cutting the plant down...

    Recent nuggets of Skywalker OG. We try to trim really close for best appearance. The nugs are very dense and aromatic. We can get a couple of units in one food-grade 5-gallon bucket. Some SFV OG babies in the background.

    Thanks for the input. We also extract from trimmed sugar leaves. But we like to obtain as much medicine from the plant as we can. And the laws of physics tell us that starting with more raw material always results in more medicine. In our direct experience over many, many grows of many different...

    Larf? Larf is good. Larf make CO2 oil. Oil make $$$. $$$ make us happy. Why throw away $$$? Every larfy bud we've ever produced has returned cash, moola, dead presidents, buckaroonies. We like larf.

    Hey UB - thanks for that link. You're right on that it's a steal. For anything more than hobby growers I like to say "Next time you're buying nutrients, look around. If you're in a hydro store you're getting hosed."

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    We practice the grow philosophy that healthy plants make healthy buds. To this end we have learned, in our humble experience only, that taking away parts of the plant that help it perform its job is counterproductive. We only remove leaves when there is some type of damage or they're naturally...

    FAVORITE STRAIN OF OG

    Clone only cut. Never been to seed that I'm aware of. We've had this cut for 7-8 years or so... there's another "Skywalker OG" available in So Cal but it's not this original strain. This one is the oldest strains we have and is our best OG. Some other OG's come close but none have the...
