everyone's taste is different, but for quick drying I go with the microwave. It's a bit harsh, but if you don't get it too dry the flavor is better than I would expect. Also you can microwave a bowl/doob at a time since it's quite speedy, so it's great for allowing everything else the maximum...

be careful. One of the issues you can run into is you really have no idea what the MG has been giving them. Nutes are not about finite amounts, they are about what the plant can handle, and a large factor to what they can handle is what they are currently used to. You have no idea what they...

they will change after being cut. At the very least the plant will continue to live for a period while drying. Once the plant is indeed dead there are processes that continue with moisture that break down enzymes stored in the plant. There's a lot of activity going on after plants get cut :)

the intensity of the light (think watts per area, so a flo tube is spreading that watts over X inches, and an HID is generating light from an area of say a few mm) determines how deep it penetrates. Think of a flashlight, does the light get focused more to a point which illuminates further, or...

also keep in mind that not all substances reflect the same spectrum. Regardless, my understanding of how mylar was developed was to be used by NASA in horticulture experiments in space. Discounting the possibility that it was designed to suppress certain spectrum that isn't being filtered by...

yep, 6" is usually what the hoods accommodate. I run 2x 400w cooltubes with a 6" ~400cfm centrifugal fan.

I didn't vote because I use a mix of cfl's, t5's, MH, and HPS... If I were wealthy I'd probably be using LED's too :) The best light is the one that fits your situation. All of the lights listed are quite viable, you just have to know the strengths and weaknesses. tons more pics and a...

can you get a pic with a normal light and of the whole plant? frmrboi is 100% right, but if you have it going on toward the top of the plant that is a classic nitrogen deff sign

yep, from 12/12. Though I can understand how this seems open to interpretation, if you really think it through it makes sense. The time a plant develops bracts (calyx) can vary based on conditions, and what one person defines as a pre-flower and an actual bud can vary, causing at least a few...

Not sure how obvious it is from the last update, but the last round of crops we put to flower ended up huge. They had started growing over the sog on the shelf, and were smashed in to the point where half the plants were in the dark beneath a far too dense canopy. Though I suspect they would...

aero cloners, same idea as bubble, but you use misters with a pump instead or air bubbles. They can pretty much scale to any size you want, just a matter of enough misters, and a big enough pump :)

low wattage, like 25w, aquarium heater.

The highest contributor to THC degradation is light, followed by heat and oxygen. The amount and time of exposure is going to determine how quickly it degrades. The studies I have seen have indicated losses up to 10% in 4 months or so.

I veg under alternating 3000 and 6500 t5's, and an HPS and MH in flower. I've been quite happy with it

count on needing 1/2 the led wattage as HID. Also plan on spending a lot more to get LED.

I have spent a few hundred there with no problems

I'm not going to be so presumptuous to tell you you're wrong, but I do suspect that what you are seeing is maturity as I have stated it. For instance, I can take immature plants, place them in flower, and I have yet to see one that doesn't continue vegging till it's ready to flower. This is...

heh, you have all sorts of stuff going on... First, start simple and stick with it through a whole grow. You have so much change happening there's no way to tell what is going on... Experiments are worthless if you can't compare it to a baseline, meaning one change per crop. You're also...

what the guy above said :) Also you want to keep in mind there is no set answer. The #1 factors influencing it are going to be your ambient humidity and temp, but also airflow, bud density, and other things all play into it. I don't like the stem snap either, it's too dry for me, but I live...
