    Bubble Funk Square foot grow

    Dude, that shit's looking dope! But how many nodes you got on it? And how long did you veg before flowering? I'm just curious because I'm on my first grow and I'm trying to get ideas for time... :/

    Ready to top or not?

    Well, so far it's been pretty compact. I think I'm gonna cut out the 5th developing node. Still waiting for an answer of how the stalk grows once it's been topped.

    Ready to top or not?

    Cool! Thanks guys... but a question I have is how many times do you think I'll top it if I want it to be 2-3' tall when it's done? I know it has to do with how compact it is but an estimate would be cool... also, when you top it does it do this? -\ /\/ --\ / ---| or does it do...

    Ready to top or not?

    Do you think this plant is ready to be topped? Or how about super cropped? It's working on it's 4th node right now, with the 5th node's leaves starting to come out as well.

    My new & improved grow room! Help with suggestions anyone?

    The fire hazard won't be a problem. It's 100% secure and monitored very very often. Also, there's a fire extinguisher in my room and the living room just in case. If I can afford a better box I will try to make one out of wood... I have encountered another problem because 2 of my plants are...

    My new & improved grow room! Help with suggestions anyone?

    A few things have changed since I took those pics, I have a rather large fan inside there blowing just above the 10 bulbs. Also, I have white paper taped into there, I know it's ghetto but I have to leave it like that until I come up with a better idea. Cardboard is my only option, also, CFL's...

    Needing some light help! [With pic!

    Umm I think you got the light temps confused, and it's 5000-5500k I forgot, but 5500k is natural sunlight spectrum so I don't know about just for show... and they've been growing my babies so far but yea, also, the MG is just a nute I plan to use much later MAYBE, seeing as how I have pre nuted...

    Needing some light help! [With pic!

    I'm honestly disturbed by the amount of light needed by these things. I understand why they need so much light especially with CFL's, which are the only thing I can use, but damn! it's still a lot of light! So basically I'm trying to figure out a way to get about 1/4-1/2 pound yield, period. I...

    A series of questions... any help is greatly appreicated!

    Also, a quick question, how the fuck do you flush soil if it has time released nutes? Or is it simply impossible? If it is, how do I get the salts out and how to I flush before harvest?

    Thanks Night, this way seems like a good idea, I just typed a huge post but this gay ass shit said I couldn't post cuz of some error and erased it all. Basically I will use that weight of the cup watering idea from now on. I have a CO2 tank which I use to spray for 30 seconds with no fans on...

    A series of questions... any help is greatly appreicated!

    In the bottom of my cup I have a layer of pebble sized rock used as my medium for drainage, and I try to water only when they need it, pushing my finger down 1-2" into the soil to check moister. I plan to get a moister indicator as well as a ph meter soon, with PH balanced water, I shouldn't...

    Help!! A forced early harvest

    What were the chances of a mold problem? Seems as if it would have maybe been better to take the chance with the mold then just harvest a clear trich cola, but it seems like there's a way to do almost anything these days, maybe even reveg and clone that fem if you didn't hack it too bad? Dunno...

    Newb Fluorescent CFL Small Space LST grow

    How many CFL's are you using? Just curious because I live in California and my electric bill has kinda raised a noticeable amount... even as low as running a 100w CFL for 20/4 would be 2 kWh a day... kWh are like 8-25 cents each depending where you are and inverted pricing... but yea, 16-50...

I'm thinking it was nute burn because I use nuted soil...

    A series of questions... any help is greatly appreicated!

    Thanks for all the help guys, I'll look into the wattage use of some more lights, I have to consider the price of electricty every month as well :/, which also gives me problems running the fan 24/7... also, I forgot to mention I have a CO2 tank at my disposal, planning to spray once every other...
