    Required Lighting

    Most of the plants I grow occupy a 2x2 footprint. Using top-tier diodes like the lm301h.you'll need a MINIMUM of 30 watts/sqft of canopy for best results. I started with economy Amazon blurples 5 years ago, every one of them is sitting in the closet. Will they grow weed??? Of course, they will...

    Marbles

    I don't think they will seal the top layer. I just make a drench using mosquito dunks with BT as a biological deterrent.

    Dwc question

    Kinda odd... I'm thinking that perhaps it from the rapid rooters. I use them when running seeds, and have had them break apart when the plant grows in the netlid and some of the material has found its way into the rez.

    The idea that the load needs to be connected for the timer clock to work is bs.

    Should i cut these stems?

    Need some more info on what/when you're feeding them. Looks like they have run out of food.

    need help with propping up a grow tent, any ideas?

    $100 and your problems are solved. If your current 'tent' is going to need you to construct a frame, I'd just chuck it and get a proper tent.

    Is this a k deficiency?

    I'd say as long as you're following their recipe for the growth cycle, then the only other thing that I do is to allow my solution ph to range from 5.8 to 6.4 over the 10-14 days I run the solution. The variation in ph impacts how bio-available the elements are to the plant.

    Is this a k deficiency?

    Does appear to be.

    5 gallon bucket or tote?

    Tote for sure. I find that 5 gal buckets fillup with roots and displace too much volume in the bucket, That makes it challenging to keep the solution stable because the plant is using such a large volume of nutes compared to the total in the bucket. I use 17 gal HDX totes from HD, but they are...

    Coco run strain name : coka

    I normally grow in hydro indoors, but I decided to set up a 4x4 in a spare bedroom for pheno hunts. I decided to give coco a try since I was familiar with running hydro. I use a 3x3 low-tide f/d tray running dtw. I just built a stand with some spare 3 gal buckets I had laying about to elevate...

    I could use help with RDWC I'm building

    I found that running my room in the low 80's for best growth eventually led to some root funk showing up in my first 3 attempts. Didn't kill the plants, but it was definitely present in spite of using bennies and frozen gallon jugs of water in an attempt to keep temps down. That's the challenge...

    LED Lights Staying Slightly Lit When Timer Switches Off!!!

    Or... You COULD turn off the breaker for that outlet, remove the cover plate and mounting screws for the outlet, disconnect the reversed neutral and line wires and attach them to the CORRECT terminals on the outlet. Done.

    What happens if the main stem is cut off in veg?

    These a 5 testers I'm running a pheno hunt. All of them were topped at the 3rd node for a clone and flipped to flower. These started in #1 pots during sexing and then into 3-gal fabric bags w/ coco/perlite. They started at about 6" tall at flip and are almost 30" tall now(that's with some...

    I could use help with RDWC I'm building

    I'm not too prone to small containers because every plant I've grown has a root mass that's easily that big. Think floods... Minimum I'd use would be 10 gallons, I have 4-17's connected in my room with 6" netlids that will grow trees. The 2" is what I use. I just use Permatex UltraBlack rtv...

    What happens if the main stem is cut off in veg?

    I suspect that if all of the growth nodes were removed, it's a lost cause. If there are other growth nodes, they should develop.

    Excessive Heat Issue In Grow Tent

    Yeah, I have the t6 and it works well. It will come on if either the temp or humidity exceeds my set point. I have also modified one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08K31FCFC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 by bridging the line side of the outlets together. Now it...
