    A perfect cure every time

    My wife often jokes how we should have gone into the hygrometer business. :) You can buy the hygrometers on ebay or Amazon. They cost ~$20. Good luck. Simon

    A perfect cure every time

    Thank you for sharing. I highlighted that comment, because it leads to an important distinction. As above, the product is dried - upside down, of course - for 10-15 days and then allowed to rehydrate for a similar period. Best case scenario, there's an actual 5-7 days of curing taking place...

    Jacks classic 20-20-20

    As a rule of thumb, full concentration for fertilizing with JC at every watering is 1 teaspoon per gallon. Start lower and build up to the max. Good luck. Simon

    venting HPS light

    No. Look to other factors as an explanation for what you're seeing. Simon

    A perfect cure every time

    I hate to sound cryptic and/or blow off folks' questions, so I'll just spit it out. I'm not exactly a legal grower and I firmly believe in respecting the authorities by not baiting them on the forums, or elsewhere. As such, I don't post my op, the exact yields, etc. I'm actually purposefully...

    looking for the BEST odour control...Uvonair or Carbon Filter

    FWIW, I run O3 for my entire setup. The air is vented into an attic space where it mixes with the O3. It then dissipates out. Simon

    A perfect cure every time

    I had the boxes made a few years ago. After looking for big screened boxes for ages and never finding anything big enough, a friend suggested an acquaintance of his for the project. The security hassle has fairly extensive, but at the end it was all worth it. The boxes are fantastic! Simon

    how do u grow indoor ladies that have half pound yields

    I look at yield as weight per square foot. A half pound from, say, four square feet is cake. Every two square feet, not so much. Simon

    A perfect cure every time

    I have a pair of large screened boxes. You're seeing the (glass) bottom of one box laid over the top of another. Always good to plan ahead. I try to, as well. Simon

    A perfect cure every time

    Not much to add to Hiker's comments. Good post. Above are a couple of pics showing the kief that just fell out of the bud. That's right, it fell out. You can see by its color that we're essentially dealing with first sift quality. Simon

    Free seed pre harvest pics

    Hi Randy. I don't add anything to Jack's. No Cal/Mag. Nothing at all. Just water from the tap mixed with the fertilizer. I was a chem major in college for about 15 minutes and leaned just enough to understand that I don't know shit about the subject, so I leave the chemistry to those who...

    Question for those that have used Jack's Classic 20-20-20

    I use tap. It reads ~120ppm. At the height of flowering, the watering solution reads ~800ppm. Simon

    Best open reflector?

    Both are excellent reflectors, arguably the best available. I suggested a SS for your application, as you want to run a 1K without air-cooling. For a 600, I'd suggest a Blockbuster. The main drawback to the SS (and the SS II) is the height above the canopy needed to cover a given area with an...

    Best open reflector?

    What we're concerned with is the dispersion relative to the light intensity. Forgive me for saying, in your case, a SSII is not really optimal for a 600 unlike Pico's assertions on IC. You can get higher yield over a wider area with a Blockbuster, everything staying equal. Why? Because, in order...

    Lesson Learned - Don't Trust Everything You read

    Heh, don't be so quick to judge, especially when you're just starting out. I've never measured pH, never, and just started noting ppms a couple of years ago almost solely out of curiosity. FWIW, I use Pro-Mix and Jack's Classic exclusively. Cultivation can be easy or complicated, depending on...

    bulk cureing?

    The jars are made by Anchor Hocking. They're ~$20 at Target or a bit more at Amazon due to the shipping. Having seen a few videos, there's almost nothing I would (and actually) do as shown. Sometimes I think the whole Youtube canna thing is a conspiracy to stop people from becoming successful...
