I run my room and like 84-88/60-65 no issues. Leaf temperature is nowhere near as high as it was with hps so room temp can be a bit higher. Just trust the charts and drop the humidity a little bit during the last few weeks if you deal with pm routinely.

Realized I've basically never posted a pic of my plants here after 6 years. Here are the girls in day 44 of flower. All different strains, can't really be sure that 2 of them are actually what I was told they were but first pic is supposed to be alpha dawg I got a cutting from a friend in 2015...

Been a long time since I ran hydro but hydroguard never seemed to clear up a bad issue for me, trim your dead roots and get some pool shock like other people are saying. The clear rez topic someone posted in here is exactly what I used to use when I was running hydro.

I've mixed 2 yards of soil in my basement before, it's more of a question of how much space you have imo. You can use like 35-50 gallon garbage cans or buy a couple of like 50-100 gallon fabric pots and mix in those as well instead of a tarp then just keep watering the pot to keep it moist, wrap...

I don't plan on using them in my beds as I don't think they like the same type of mix or as many nutrients in the soil since they eat insects, I would probably have a couple around the edges of the tent and maybe one in between my two beds in their own pots. I'm currently looking at some...

Recently I've been considering putting pitcher plants in my grow to kind of mitigate whatever gnats and whatnot I get here and there but more importantly to replace having to put up a million sticky cards to monitor pests. I've heard of many people doing this successfully and I was wondering...

Yep my stalks and stems go through a wood chipper and used a mulch or fed to my worm bin, I dry leaves in those like 3 foot long storage totes and use them as mulch as needed, the worms will make pretty quick work of the leaves so when you can see a good portion of dirt again just grab a couple...

Look up coots mix. You can make a significant amount for fairly cheap and almost all of it should be available in a farm/feed store or home Depot type store. if you really want to grow in a soil though the better question should be where you're going to get good compost. That's assuming you...

I'd be extra sure to get as much of the aphid crap off the plant too if you end up keeping it, it's a really good vector for fungal disease.

Do you have any sort of foliar regimen? Maybe whatever specific spectrum differences you get under the hlgs is causing some sort of phytotoxicity?

I put mine up on pallets and in old 4x4 flood tables. Just makes cleanup around it easier.

I try not to water to runoff in organic, you're spending the time to let your nutrients be mineralized by your microbes seems like a waste to dump them down the drain. I have my pots in large saucers and water 10% by volume per day rarely do I ever see runoff in the saucers but if there is I...

I ordered lights from a company based in Canada that imports parts from China and assembles them there and it was a very similar situation with the PayPal and whatnot. Get tracking numbers, if they can't or won't provide them then you can make the choice whether you want to wait or dispute the...

I have a similar power lights to OP (730w 301h's or 301b's depending on which one) and I would definitely agree with this, when I first went from hps to led I got tons of burn even with the lights at way lower than the plants should have been able to take and much of it went away when I started...

Conventional nitrogen fertilizer is also up like 400% right now, it's actually a huge deal and is going to have a large impact on most agriculture globally. It's actually pushing a lot of people to use more organic inputs but all in all it's a mess right now.

I mean I still use micronutrient sulfates which are technically inorganic salts I'm pretty sure, I can see a use case for quick treatment of a severe deficiency too but I definitely wouldn't grow in a hybrid system trying to do both all the time.

A lot of the problem isn't the salts themselves but the chelators like EDTA and whatnot as some of them are registered fungicides too. Also certain salts will fuck up fungal networks because a lot of fungi mines phosphorus so when you're slamming in available phosphorous I was taught that your...

Bugs come and go, I don't see any obvious pest damage and you're pretty early into flower by the looks of it, just continue whatever you're doing for IPM and keep watching. There are very few pests I would bother scrapping an entire harvest for outside of russets unless my plants were literally...

I just don't go to garden centers/hydro shops for mine, we have a few places within an hour or so that will sell bulk vermicompost/castings I pay like 350 bucks for 100gallons and thats usually enough for all of my indoor and outdoor gardening for the entire year. You'd probably be surprised if...
