    Question about transplanting after already uppotting.

    its bc the majority of them are liter sizes. they just call them gallons bc of marketing. various sizes are close but I I think most 3 gallon pots are actually 10 or 12 liters, and we are all confused bc there is no standard.

    Question about transplanting after already uppotting.

    I agree. a lot of ppl wait 2 weeks after transplant to flip so if you are going to flip today I would just leave them alone.

    Question about transplanting after already uppotting.

    if you plant to flip them right now that might be fine. but if you are gonna veg them some more I might go ahead and transplant once more like a week before u flip

    Question about transplanting after already uppotting.

    photos will help. also are you saying both plants are in the same pot? or each one is in its own 5 gallon.

    Anyone tried these - TRON strips 166-182 lum/W from TME.eu ??

    the strips are designed w both color temps to run simultaneously so the runaway is not an issue. in general, you never want to run a strip at max. the efficiency numbers are at test current which is 1A. the softer you run the diodes the more efficient they are. it technically is possible but...

    Samsung H series strips, Arrow seems to be blowing them out! what a deal!

    been wondering the same thing. they show a bunch of new models as being available (but not in stock yet) so wondering if they are just purging inventory or something. glad i stocked up when I did although I hope there isn't some issue with them.

    nice! FYI those ones are the 80cri version. higher lm/w but not quite as good a spectrum as the Thrive ones. but price is definitely really nice! as for drivers, you have a couple options. you can use one driver. if you wire each set of strips separately, you can easily make it so u can...

    In your experience with regular seeds, what percentage did you have with females over males?

    sorry if I wasn't clear in my reasoning. I dont think there is definitive answer either way on whether environment of parent affects sex of offspring, but I personally think this could be possible.. I don't think there is evidence that environment of offspring determines sex, which is one that...

    In your experience with regular seeds, what percentage did you have with females over males?

    I can possssibly see how stress factors in the plant producing seeds could influence sex of offspring. However I don't think that conditions of seedlings will affect them turning out one way vs the other. We have DNA sex testing to prove otherwise now. I think this is important to point out...

    BOG Seeds

    the more recent packs of SourBubble were BX2/BX3 mix. I think not as many ppl wanted the BX3/4 packs so he made more BX2. Here's what BOG said when I asked him on 6/27: me: "Out of curiosity, what BX gen are the current Sour Bubble seeds?" bog: "The SB is back to bx 2 and 3 mixed as I still...

    I wound up going for the Covert 4x4 to get the extra height.

    I know some tests have been done on 90cri vs 80cri and seemed promising. I havent actually seen any grows using 98cri yet tbh. I think the argument for higher CRI is that its closer to "daylight" and if nothing else, is a lot easier to spot deficiencies sooner. With that in mind the original...

    Grandma needs help

    no problem! there is definitely a little learning curve but since you already know how to grow plants, you are way ahead of the game. for a lot of people coming here, they have never grown anything before. growing from seed does pose some challenges since not all genetics are "stable" and may...

    Grandma needs help

    welcome to RIU! the great thing about this place is you are going to get a wide variety of answers. I would highly recommend starting off with reading https://growweedeasy.com - they do a really good job breaking things down very simply. I would recommend skipping straight to using a premixed...

    Anyone tried these - TRON strips 166-182 lum/W from TME.eu ??

    98cri vs 80cri. and they have a really nice spectrum. lm/w isn't as important as overall output. in terms of photon output these are close to the Samsung when u do the math (which i dont have formulas handy or fully understand, but trust those who have). also we never really want to run leds...

    CFL closet grow - considering LED

    led w driver mounted outside the grow area will help keep temps down. the HLG 135W would be an awesome option. I started w an earlier V2 version of the same kit for a 2x2x5 tent as my first led fixture. if you are up for a little more complicated DIY, a small strip fixture would be even better...

    max current is 350ma on these. the first ones you posted were only 780ma. you will need 2-3x as many strips as if you ran Samsung or Bridgelux. these Tron strips are more in line with Samsung Influx linear. those are same diode count LM301A strips. 1.38A test, 1.8 max. arrow has them on sale...

    Whats the funniest thing someones said to you about growing?

    I just remembered a jaw dropper that just about sums up the level of knowledge of budtenders at dispensaries. when I first moved to LA there was a spot a few blocks from my job I would hit up on pay day. they had gotten in a batch of some really nice funky Exodus Cheese that I got a few weeks...
