    Forgot to turn timer on...

    Yea funny you mention that about too many bud sites. I have a plant with 1-2 weeks left that I vegged a month with heavy lst, flowered it then revegged it for 2 months. Now it's in a 5g bucket(soil) with 45 tops last time I checked. They are all wider than a bic lighter and fattening up. But I...

    Forgot to turn timer on...

    So keeping them on there regular schedule will be fine? on 1030am 0ff 1030pm In this case they came on at 1030am and I turned them off around 430am. So just proceed as normal with only 6 hours of darkness?

    Forgot to turn timer on...

    I was hoping someone would say that. Thanks for the reassurance. Just kinda pissed me off I forgot to turn it on. Gotta stop smoking and gardening at the same time... heh

    Forgot to turn timer on...

    Ok so I have 22 seedlings I popped on the 18th of march. Vegged a week and started 12/12 on the 25th. So they've been 12/12ing for 3 days now. Long story short I purchased another timer, set it and forget it. But I forgot to turn it from "off" to "on" so that the motherfuckwer would work. I...

    Cops bust pot farm 100lbs every 8 weeks!!!

    Steal power and get busted. That seems like a foolish reason to get busted. Some things you can't control. You CAN control not stealing power.

    Exhaust fan

    Basically it's an enclosure for the light made of pyrex or some other glass that can withstand the heat. You can pull air through a filter --->cooltube(or hood) --> fan. Some people use two exhaust fans in their set ups though. One fan draws filtered air out of the room/box and the other...

    Exhaust fan

    I was thinking about this last night. As long as there is negative pressure in the grow room, the slower the better. Unless heat is an issue as in my case. I have a 3'x2'x5' cab with a 400w hid inside and due to security reasons I cannot vent hot air outside(the grow room). I will try this fan...

    Exhaust fan

    Hmm, I never said I was getting started, did I? I was asking a specific question about a specific brand and model fan. Thanks for your input though. Cheers.

    Exhaust fan

    Does anyone here have experience with S&P fans? I'm wondering if they will have enough power to pull through a filter. The filter i'm getting is 8"x12" with a 1" bed of carbon. I was thinking of using the S&P 200 which is an 8" fan with a max cfm of 538. My filter manufacture says to use a...

    12/12 from seed

    If you only have room for one growbox and dont' want to wait months between harvests then 12/12 from seed has an advantage. You can have a perpetual harvest by filling your box, weeding out the males and replacing them with fresh seeds.

    12/12 from seed

    I've never tried spectrums inbtween 6500 and 2700 don't know how well they'd work tbh. It makes sense that you would start with probably more or all 6500k while they are young with the bulbs very close to reduce as much stretch as possible. When they start to flower add more 2700k and use...

    12/12 from seed

    I'm wondering how this is done exactly? Simply use a flowering light/dark period schedule ( 12/12 ) from the moment the seed pops leaves. Obviously yeild will be less, but grow time is also alot less. Yeild will probably be less than a standard veg for a month+ then flower...

    can you use reflectix reflective insulation as a grow closet liner? is it safe?

    Yes you can use it. I use it in my veg cab with cfls. It reflects light decently, not the best though, mylar or flat white paint are better. As far as heat goes I can literally put a 23w cfl on the material for days(of course I don't) and when I touch the spot that the cfl was on it's cool to...

    LIghts

    NO do NOT do that. :-( For hps and MH you need a ballast and socket rated for the bulb. You can get all you need to start a simple grow op at walmart or any local store like lowes/hd or whatever. For vegging you want the CFLs with 6500k ratings, these are usually labeled with "Daylight"...

    when will stink come?

    I have a similar bucket filter. With mine I am using a bag of silica crystal cat litter and 3 cans of activated carbon. It's been 3 weeks now and the filter is still doing a decent job. If the humidity goes up around 50% or more in my grow room I can still smell plants IN the growroom but other...

    Hanna Ph meter question

    So my tester just arrived in the mail today, however, instead of them sending me the 7.01 calibration solution they sent me cleaning solution. Is there anything I can use to calibrate my meter in the meantime before I get the proper solutions?

    3 species of weed? Idica, Sativa, ???RUDERALIS???

    If people are going to respond with "Just go elsewhere and do your own research" to questions asked here, however basic they may be, what is the point of those people even being on this site?

    MG Perlite question

    Short on cash and the nursery that sells 'plain' perlite without nutes mixed in will close for the winter soon. So, does MG perlite contain those little nutrient orbs or are the nutes somehow fused to the perlite, itself? If it contains the nute orbs I could just pick them out and be fine right?
