    Greenhouses

    I wrapped the bottom of my hoop house with screen to mitigate some of the bug issues. I then wrapped the screen with chicken wire to protect the screen. Also screened both ends top to bottom. Mine is 16 x 24 x10 and made with cellular core pvc. Being as we are both in illinois and do have to...

    Whats the longest or shortest you had to dry your buds?

    I make sure it takes two weeks to dry by monitoring and adjusting temperature and humidity. Also I will gladly let them hang longer in the fall when they can hang in a cooler environment.

    BTW that leaf tip curling is not nitrogen toxicity.

    I can see you are using an inkbird, so what temperature and humidity are you running at right now. Also is your heating mat being run by the inkbird?

    Issues around stretch, stacking, and density with 600W HPS lights.

    How old are the bulbs? If you have used them for 4-5 grows they should be replaced. Beyond that there are too many variables. You mentioned the reflector, are they both the same? If not, that could be the issue.

    Bubble hash help please.

    I like to set fresh bubble in between coffee filters in the fridge to dry for a few days to a week. The coffee filters wick the moisture away and the hash doesn't stick to them. I have used cardboard boxes as well. You definitely want to keep it as cool as you can while drying it.

    Bubble hash help please.

    Well after it's pressed three times I will fold it while still warm. Then press all of the air out of it. And begin to ball it up by pressing in the corners over and over. When it's close to ball shaped I begin rolling the ball in between the palms of my hands. As you roll it you need to apply...

    Plant leaves Yellowing

    I would plant those a little deeper when they move in to the new soil. And I would just use the ocean forest. You can add some worm castings and perlite if you like. But mixing the two mediums is not necessary. Also, move your light closer. They are stretching too much. Good luck friend! And...

    Comparative Grow – Seedstockers | The Vault

    That's sweet! I should also note that my harvest from the two outdoor Sherbet plants was better than I thought it would be. After getting rid of any infected bud there was still a considerable amount of great stuff left. So it was still a good run for them. They came down a few weeks before I...

    On average, how much % of your harvest is lost to carerpillars?

    I use an airless paint sprayer. I spoke with a person at Bioworks about applying using my equipment for Cease and Milstop. They assured me it would be fine. They airless sprayer gives an aerosol dispersion of the solution. So far it has been great. I also use the same sprayer for other...

    On average, how much % of your harvest is lost to carerpillars?

    Oh yeah and my answer is 0% to worms, out in the hoop house for 2 years running! I use a couple of pheromone traps and a bunch of yellow sticky traps. I also, as stated before use cease and potassium bicarbonate and a dash of castile soap. The latter two spray additions being equivalent to...
