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

    is that wiring up to code where you're at? romex wouldn't pass code here...just sayin'. frankly, i'd ditch the panda film, drywall it all in, and paint it all flat white, saving the high density foam to insulate only the plants from the floor. but that's just me. looks good tho, well thought...

    Droppy sad looking plant with spots on lower fan leaves.

    thanks! this is my second grow from seed. I had the lights a little too close and it was starting to heat stress the group out. moved the lights up to 6"+ above the top of the canopy and put another fan in for air circulation. gonna feed them 1/4 stregnth nutes next watering. but i'll let this...

    Droppy sad looking plant with spots on lower fan leaves.

    Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help me figure out what's going on. I thought this one was underwatered when I saw the droopyness yesterday. It was weighing a bit light so I gave it a good watering. I check the pH of the water using aquarium pH tester solution, and it seems...

    Ballast wiring question

    red and black are your hots: 110vac each. white is your neutral: that's your widowmaker. green is chassis ground or just ground. without seeing what you're trying to wire up, I'd say, don't fuck with it, unless your going for a Darwin award.

    Dark period after flowering?

    to those who are new to the site and new to growin', discussions like this are interesting, and entertaining...but mostly they spark curiousity in what might be possible. btw, i love your pic Illegal Smile is that an emu?

    1 Month old plants- any advice?

    they look good, but growth seems a little slow for a month's time. did you germinate them first or just plant seeds in soil? these are about 21 days after germ. they're all about 5" tall after 4 of 8 were topped for the first time. span from tip to tip is over 10" on most, one is over 12"...

    ~!@#$%^&!!! Moldy bud.

    Uh, yeah. There was never a question about 'eating or drinking' moldy bud. It's compost. It was harvested early, unfortunately (hense the light-airy buds), and wasn't trimmed down enough, but as I recall, those untrimmed leaves had lots of resin glands on them nearer to the bud, and it really...

    ~!@#$%^&!!! Moldy bud.

    No, not usually. That was a special case. Usually, it's around $60 1/4, 1/2 for $100 or so. Great lakes area.

    ~!@#$%^&!!! Moldy bud.

    first off, if it smells like kat shit, it may be kat shit. if its wet, let it dry out a bit...what does it smell like? when you put it in the jar don't put the lid on it for a day or so... what does it smell like? good? bad? musty? if it smells good keep the lid on it. if it smells musty...

    ~!@#$%^&!!! Moldy bud.

    I don't think it has spider mites, but all I have is a magnifying glass, for now. Got a USB microscope, and a handheld, coming in a couple days. When the scopes come in I'll take a closer look and post some more pics. Obviously, I jarred them too soon...but what really threw me, because I...

    White powdery stuff on soil surface...

    Ok, I used 1 tablespoon of 3% H2O2 in 16 oz. of 6.5 pH water and sprayed that on the surface of the soil and on the seedling in the pic. We'll see how that goes and if all is well I'll do the other seedlings the same way.

    White powdery stuff on soil surface...

    Hey all, On a 50/50 mix of FF Ocean Forest and FF Happy Frog I notice white powdery stuff on the topmost dried part of the soil, especially on bark material. It doesn't seem to be affecting my seedlings at all so far, so I'm guessing it's probably some kind of salts like lime deposits? Any...

    Show off your T5 grown buds

    324w T5 3000k. Bagseed. 16.9g dryed. Picked, probably 7-10 days early. Buzz is mild and unfortunately short lasting. Not much flavor either. Lot of problems early...overwatering, deficiencies, poor potting soil (MG), newbie grower... Total yield over 4 2ft. plants, ~39.7g, plus about 5g of...

    Nutrients Starter Kit???

    Hey all, This is my second grow from seed in this outing. First one had all sorts of issues (mostly newbie grower issues, though I'm not actually a newbie, but I digress...) I used a male sativa dominant to mate with the females in the group on the first grow and got some fresh new seeds out of...

    one ballast, 2 lights?? HELP

    holdenman, flat white. the only thing better would be mylar. As far as two lamps on one ballast... conventional wisdom is that if you don't know what you're doing around electricity, don't do it.

    Seeds, Nodes, Miracle Grow, and Soil Mix

    Sorry, didn't mean to blame the MG for the heat stress. I'm sure others have had success with MG potting soil. My experience is limited so I don't consider myself any kind of authority at all. I didn't use any extra nutes for the first month, then just 1/2 strength MG every other watering or...
