    SCROG/LST Switch to HPS?

    I could be wrong but it's my understanding that you can't give too much light you can only create too much heat for the plant? put up a big light and have your CFL's around for supplimental light? that's what I did, I got my 125W CFL for side light and my 1000w for canopy light

    Dog feces for fertilizer

    the main reason not to use dog feces as a fert is that it contains harmful parasitic organisims that lay microscopic eggs that can get into whatever your growing, if it is put through the hot phase of composting it could feasably be useful to plants but you still get all the negatives. I have a...

    small explanation of vermicomposting (making worm castings)

    I should also mention that a happy colony can eat more than half their body weight in a day so you can really crank out the castings after awhile

    small explanation of vermicomposting (making worm castings)

    I have been raising red wrigglers for worm castings for 4 years now. I thought I would share a few pics I found while cleaning up my hard drive on how to get yourself started for the least amount of investment. the 2 bucket method cost around 30 dollars for a pound of red wrigglers and 10...

    Rainbow Gathering

    I have stayed to help cleanup, it may take months but the job gets done, there are many, many letters from the forest service stating that the cleanup has in most cases left the sites in better shape than they were found in. erosion gets dealt with, trails get covered, bridges dismantled...

    enough to keep 4x4 warm at night?

    if you have to heat it then that heater would be more than enough to heat that small area. I bought a heater for my room a week ago but ended up adjusting my light height which let me fine tune my temp without an additional heat source.
