    Leaving lights unattended

    True, but there are always things that get past even the tightest quality controls and end up going up in smoke. Plus, shit happens. And a lot of shit happens that you never hear about. That's what lawyers are for.

    Leaving lights unattended

    Damnit!!! Reading this thread made me paranoid to the point that I just ordered a 6kg Flame Defender! And I'm only using T5's!!! And I'm NOT stoned! lol Seriously, though, I had contemplated ordering one in the past anyway, so why the fuck not? Seems like a relatively cheap way to get some...

    Anybody ever use one of those "Black Heat" reptile light bulbs?

    my suggestion would be to try a ceramic heat 'bulb' if all you need to do is provide some heat to an enclosed area... http://www.petco.com/product/111475/Zilla-Ceramic-Heat-Emitter.aspx?CoreCat=OnSiteSearch or something similar...search online for a better price they come in various...

    Help help help all boys?

    with three seeds, your odds of getting all males is 1 in 8, or 8:1 against. it would have been a decent return if it was a bet for cash...8x kinda sux it was with your grow, however.

    Can you cut a clone during flowering?

    Ok, thanks. I was just wondering if it could be done. A long, long, time ago I topped and cloned a Sativa in a similar manner, except I put the clone in veg for a month before flowering it. It worked great, but I only did 1 grow (about 4 plants) and then I re-vegged the survivors after...

    Can you cut a clone during flowering?

    Hey RIU, I was wondering, mostly out of curiosity, can a clone be cut from a flowering plant and set to 12/12 immediately? For example, lets say you've got a Sativa dom female who is growing a little faster vertically than you want. If you top it early in the flowering cycle, say within the...

    Lower fan leaves turning yellow

    strange, somehow the pics didn't get uploaded...hopefully they're uploaded now as for being root bound, they are. but once they show sex they'll be transplanted into larger pots.

    Effects of poor ventilation during flowering...

    I would say it's a bit cold in your garage. If you're only in the mid 60's with the lights on and mid 40's lights off, I believe growth rate will slow somewhat from the cold. If you could somehow raise the temps and lower the humidity a bit you'll probably see and improvement in growth rate.

    Lower fan leaves turning yellow

    Hey RIU, I think I've got a nitrogen deficiency. All of my plants seem to be doing the same...yellowing the lower fan leaves till they die off. I've been using Technaflora's 'Recipe for Success' veg stage concoction as per the instructions. The plants are in a 50/50 mix of FF Happy Frog and...

    4 weeks of growth

    grow space is at a premium, aproximately 48"w x 48"h x 18"d. prior to watering, I gave them a tug and pulled them completely out of the pot root ball and all. The soil came out shaped like the pot. The roots are crawling up the sides of the pot, so they are root bound. I'll have to put them in...

    4 weeks of growth

    hey all, These babes have just about 4 weeks of growth (26 days). How're they lookin'? The tallest has been topped twice and stands about 8". The rest are 6-7" or so, except for the two runts which are about 10 days younger than the rest. I'm hoping to get 4-5 females. I'm planning on...

    Need help to optimize cabinet setup!

    you have aproximately 3.75 sq. ft. or 2.5' x 1.5'. a 250w hps/mh would be more than enough, if you can somehow keep the cab cool. a cool tube is probably your best bet, but they're kind of wide, ~ 24-26", very little room for ducting. with only 25" of height to work with, you're gonna lose...

    Getting ready to build 9' x 9' grow room in basement - advice welcome

    I'm in the midwest, great lakes area. That yellow wiring is called Romex. It's rated for 600vac @ 20 amps, or 12000 watts. My guess is that it's going to a 15 amp breaker which will give you a max of 1800 watts continuous before tripping the breaker. However, that means you may need multiple...
