    understanding cfl wattage

    I agree that's why I suggested measuring by real watts and more importantly lumens.

    understanding cfl wattage

    Yes if you are fallowing the watts per sqft rule with CFLs you will go by the real watts. So a 100 watt CFL is only 23 real watts so you need at least two per sqft if you fallow this rule. A better way to do it with CFLs is to go by lumen per sqft minimum being 2000 and optimal being 5000 to...

    What should my ppm be for my nutrient solution

    I will try to explain the ppm thing for you using my method which is the Lucas formula with my nutes which are as fallows, GH Flora Nova and good old Super Thrive. So when the plants are young and I mean babies I stick to about 400 ppm. As they get bigger I ramp them up usually in 200 ppm...

    How big should my room be?

    Yes it will need to cool off first. I had something close to this happen when I bumped into one of my 1000 watt lights causeing the power cord to jiggle and turn off the light. I re secured the power cord and tried to turn it back on and nothing. Then I let it sit for about ten mins and it came...

    How big should my room be?

    What do you mean you cant get it to run, is it shutting off? A 1000 watt will cover a 4x4 area with no problem.This works well with the number of plants you have as they will need about two square foot per plant. Welcome to Costco I love you

    What should my ppm be for my nutrient solution

    If you are using a General Hydro product or just about any reputable nute you can look up the Lucas Formula on Google and there will be a million links that explain ppm and give you good nute recipes. This formula was developed specifically for Cannabis and works well, even though someone on...

    Those look good to me about where they should be for two weeks. Your friend was probably right move your light closer and the plants will stop stretching for it, but don't get it to close. Good luck you seem to be doing just fine!

    That's sound like a good set up man better than a lot of new guys. My buddy runs almost the same set up and uses the sog method. He grows great bud and plenty of it. So now that we know what your grow method is and the set up on to the nutes. I recommend that you grab a bottle of...

But seriously if you can before you plant spread the dirt you intend to use out and let it dry way out the then plant. after planting and letting your plant rest a few days hit the plant with a soil drench of your choice. Also as previously mentioned let the dirt dry between...

    Changing light cycle

    I would save the money and keep the 18/6 I have done both and I don't think you will see massive change in growth just a Chang in your electric bill.

    Worse than pruning?

    I'll tell you how it will react it will gather moisture and no light and you will end up with mildew. Trust me you don't want to fight that fight. Another thing to consider is that the way you have them tied up you won't see the mildew until it is real bad. Don't be afraid to take a few fan...

    newbie growin northern lights

    How many plants you put in your grow area is completely dependent on what kind of grow you want to do. Pretty much every one who has commented is right in one way or another, and of course everyone has their favorite way to do it that they believe is better than all others LOL. Here are some...
