    Yeah, there are some seriously shitty choices for candidates where I'm at. However, the candidate that is in most support of pot has some seriously fucked political ads. Basically his adds catered only to the young populace and said "vote for x candidate, he'll let you smoke pot". Never mind the...

    I got a pack of regular Northern Lights seeds and I've been using the paper towel method to germ them. I ph'd the water to wet down my towel, put the towel in a zip lock and put it on a plate on top of a wax burner for warmth away from light. Out of a pack of 12 seeds seven so far have been...

    Ontario Seed Bank Review

    Got a bag of regular Northern Lights and he threw in five Fat Bastard seeds. So far none of them have germed, and they don't have a guarantee on their seeds. I won't be going back to OSB.

    Full alkaloid cocoa

    Hmm, I was just looking on Amazon but it looks like most of the teas on there are de-alkalized so probably not worth buying... weak

    I'm growing in a hollowed out speaker about 12x8x45 so pretty small. Hmm, yeah for the size that I have available the guy at my local hydro store was telling me to start flowering really early when the plants were around 3" tall. I'm growing Northern lights and Fat bastard, I know the Northern...

    Full alkaloid cocoa

    "It is illegal to bring coca leaves into the U.S. for any purpose, including to use for brewing tea or for chewing."- US Customs home page (2013) Definitely not legal to have leaves for any purpose. However, I would still be interested in getting some packets for tea. @Mew4, I'm assuming you're...

    Ok, yeah I figured it wouldn't hurt to have the seeds in more acidic water. But I don't have a whole lot of room for growing, so I wanted my plants to be as strong as possible since I'll be doing lst and topping them off to get the shortest bushiest plant possible. How much room do you usually...

    Got another question for ya. I just got my seeds and I popped them in a paper towel I wet down with some Ph'd water (about 6.3), put the towel in a zip lock and I've got it sitting on top of a wax scent burner for heat with a black cloth above and below to block light. Do you guys usually ph...

    haha, don't get me wrong I love blazing a bowl. But I don't get the shakes if someone bogards my joint. It's just depressing to see the amount of people that are completely fine accepting the "fact" that marijuana is a dangerous drug.

    Saw something funny in my psych book that I thought people would get a kick out of. Apparently Marijuana is a substance, and it's derived from the "cannabis sativa" plant. It can also cause hallucinations and can cause nausea and vomiting. I learn something new every day...

    Case fan hookup

    Yeah, space is an issue so hooking up my filter inside of my grow space is going to cut into plant room. I'd be able to attach the fan to the internals of my box with a zip tie special, not really the route that I wanted to go but it sure beats having smell drifting around.

    Case fan hookup

    Good to know, I'm looking at a fan that is a little more powerful at around 86cfm. I was planning on pushing air from the exhaust into the filter. I've read that doing so can render the filter less effective, any weight to that statement?

    Case fan hookup

    That sounds simple enough. Do you think that the carbon filter will be enough for the smell control? I didn't want to spend hundreds on a commercial air filter since I'm just starting out.

    Case fan hookup

    I've got a carbon filter that I'm using to control the smell. Basically two pencil cones, carbon in between the cones and pantyhose acting as a container for the carbon and over the outer pencil cone. There's other people who swear by it, but I've got a really small area that I'm working with...

    Case fan hookup

    I was reading an article where a guy rigged up his case fans to a 12 volt cell charger and made it work. Even if this doesn't have the capability to start on fire, would you think having a power supply with too many volts would fry the fan over time?

    Case fan hookup

    So without going into great detail, Bestbuy has case two different sized case fans one 80mm and one 120mm. I'm trying to get an 80mm rigged up for my intake, and a 120mm for my exhaust. The 120mm moves around 40cfm so a little on the low side. What I'm wondering is if I hook an 80mm up to a...

    The Ultimate Odour Control Thread

    I've got a small grow that I'm going to be using a 45cfm case fan for exhaust into a homemade filter. Just wondering if anyone has used a homemade filter with activated carbon for a small grow and if/or how it worked for smell control...

    Another Newbie question comin' at ya. I was talking to a guy at the local hydroponic store about nutrients lighting etc. He goes on to say after I mention I'm using CFL's that I should switch to MH or HPS especially when I switch to 12/12. I was pretty sure he was talking about growing cannabis...

    Welcome New Members!

    Yeah found a plethora of 250w mh lights for a decent price, so I'll probably start saving up some dough for a mh setup for a grow or two down the road. Thanks for the information everyone! :smile:

    Welcome New Members!

    I'm only going to be growing two plants as this is my first grow. Small beginnings ya know? I just looked up some led light fixtures... ouch I'd rather go the hid route. But would you need to combine hps with mh? Because I'm not finding any hps that reach 6500k without being 600w+. Home depot...
