just picked up some blueberry diesel seeds. can't wait!!

promalin looks good, but 190/qt? yikes..

i just figured out one of my FOAF's bagseeds is a variation on NYC Diesel. What are some good tips anyone can give for dealing with this strain? 1st cut is coming, so i'm interested in round 2 helpful hints.. thanks!

how are the trichomes looking at this point?

looks nice? what is it wrapped in?

you can end up with root problems really easily from doing this, if your soil doesn't drain proper it will rot the roots. i've been going over this as well. i've found it works best for me in this order. 1.5" rockwool for clones. 6" or 10" pots until rootbound or leaves are over the edges...

you'll get great compact growth if using floros and leaving them within about 1" of the plant tips, but your yield will suffer because unless you go with the hi-output floros, they just don't have the lumens you'd need to get big results.. they have a ton of advantages though, less heat, cost...

they're roots. cover them up with soil and your plant will stabilize quicker. good luck!

does anyone know if or where to find good seeds in vancouver BC, or anywhere else in the lower mainland? got a trip soon, would love to pick up some newbies!

i dunno. i've seen that on friends plants. they've turned out to be super-pistillated little clusters, with about 6 or more finally popping out. i've only had one plant ever do it, i knocked them off and split them open. didn't appear to have any male characteristics. plus, it's a singular...

you're talking about an indoor closet in an apartment. you won't need to worry about the police flying over and noticing you unless you stick about 10 1000w HPS in there, pointing up. ;) is the closet against an outside wall? night temp changes can have negative effects on growth and sex. insulate!

nah, just get one of the 100/125w ones. you'll just be fucking around with the smaller ones. 100w fluorex= ~6800 scotopic/ ~10,000 photopic. it'll look brighter than it is for your plants, but they work great in small spaces. there's a version at home depot that's about 60, the 125's at grow...

vote for Kubby for President Steve Kubby. Decent guy, medical user, amazing grower. vote vote vote!!!!!!!

distilled water is a good choice, should be around 6.0 ph. some hydro additives will list the product ph on the label, you'll at least have an idea of how much you might be changing it with that info. ph test kits are cheap, like ten bucks. try a pet store/aquarium shop for some really basic...

another thing to remember is that every twist and turn you put in the exhause hose reduces the venting fan capacity. try to straightline it if you can. hung over your lights, venting straight to the nearest wall works great. you can hear the difference in fan output and effort as you're...

carbon can filter. inline duct fan. duct tape. flexible ducting, preferably in the same diameter as your filter, and your fan.. (6"-250cfm / 8"=500cfm...) you can make the can filter by having separated, sleeved and perforated (drilled pvc, metal screening, something like that.) tubes that will...

if you're going to go for CFL's, get the 100w (home depot/fluorex) or the 125w from a hydro shop. the small bulbs seem like a real waste of time comparitively. you can get around 4500 lumens out of 2x 4 foot tubes, around 7000 lumens from the 100/125 w versions. bonus for the 100/125? very...

you might have a slightly slower response time while waiting for the cutting to quit flowering and start growing again, but it should work fine. i kept having some grow up into lights as well, just raise the light up about 1/2" or so a day, depending on how quickly the plant is trying to eat...

the blue spectrum HPS he's referring to is a recent addition to HPS lighting. the only example i have experience with is the Hortilux version. for the 400w, they add a 30w filament of blue spectrum, so you end up with a 430w that works in the same fixture (same deal with other wattages.)...
