    How close is too close?

    Let your plants tell you how close is too close. If they start to burn, they will let you know and you can adjust. I have plants resting on the light tube itself and doing ok. It's not just weed, it's a weed and quite resistant.

    You can learn a lot from a dummy!

    I was with her for 2 1/2 years. Wasn't gonna do the camera. Who would I turn it in to, the cops? I was going to turn on the CO2 and see if it knocked them out or worse. But.... I don't look good in orange and that would have been premeditated. Anyhow, lesson learned.

    You can learn a lot from a dummy!

    Just wanted to share with you some things I have learned from this place and experience. I bought this fancy closet set up and started growing hydroponically, ebb and flow, with a 400w and 600w set up to perpetually keep 22 plants in stages, finishing 11 4.5 feet plants every 45 days. Everything...

    i need help

    If you top now, you can have 2 colas. If you top when the 5th node starts down to between the 2nd and 3rd (there is an article here somewhere) that will get you 4 colas. Just looking at the plants I see a very slight yellowing on the bottom which is a sign of nutrient burn or water stress. It...

    Please look at my pic I hope it's not a he/she

    I don't think it's a herm. I think what you are looking at is a new leaf coming out. Give it time to develop and you will know for sure. It takes time for the balls to become dangerous ;)

    LIGHTING: air cooled vs not

    Air cooled lighting is not where you get the smell. The light is in a sealed tube with an intake fan and an exhaust in which that air never touches the plants, thus no odor. Air cooled lights allow you to work in a smaller area and keep the lights closer to the plant matter slowing stretch. You...

    If you have ugly parents; how will the kids turn out??

    General rules of thumb in my most humble opinion. If your bagseed has seeds, the grower either did not care or have enough knowledge to grow the plant to it's fullest potential. If it won't stay lit, it wasn't cured or dried properly. If it tastes "odd" it wasn't flushed before harvest. The...

    so which one of yall got a lambo off of growing weed

    A smart commercial grower isn't going to buy a Lambo. That is way to easy to spot. Your neighbor gets jealous and starts runnin his mout... "that guy works part time at Wal Mart, how can he afford that?" The smart money buys things that make you money. Real Estate, vending machines, laudromats...

    much point in putting seedlings under MH early on ?

    Once my clones root, I usually set them for 1 week under the flourescents to let the roots get a good start then it's under the 400W MH. You need to make sure you have a good start on the roots and 2 to 3 fan leaves to have the MH be effective. Believe me, the MH will make up for lost time.

    600hps

    I have mine 6 inches off the top of the plants. That said, mine are in tubes with an intake and exhaust fan to remove the heat. The above poster had it right when he said check for heat with your hand. Read your plants. They will tell you if it is too close. You don't want too far or your plants...

    Does flowering begin when you switch to 12/12?

    Or, does it start when the first buds start appearing? I started 12/12 on May 1st.

    What happens if I harvest too early?

    I was going to clip a bud, but without being flushed, figured it would taste like crap.

    What happens if I harvest too early?

    I have removed the gfi plug. Unfortunately, my plants just seem to be hanging on by a thread. I am just trying to plan in advance to not completely lose them. I guess what I am asking is if there will be any potency at all to plants that are supposed to be flowered 7-9 weeks that are harvested...

    What happens if I harvest too early?

    I have a hydro system. My ballast kept kicking off my gefi plug and thus screwed up my timer. Therefore I had light with no water and water with no light. Plants look very sick, with only the tops alive but looks like they are dying. These plants have been on 12/12 since May 1st and flowering...

    Marc Emery Calls Out Selfish Marijuana Growers for Opposing Legalization

    That's why it is expensive. The guy who grows it is doing it for profit? What is a fair profit when the consequense for getting caught growing it is the loss of ones freedom for a good amount of time?

    help! studs cant support my 600w hps for some reason...

    Unless your studs are rotten or termite infested you never caught the stud. You should be able to hang 200lbs off a stud with no fear. Try measuring from the edge of the room. Studs should be spaced 16" on center, that is, a stud every 16 inches. I would build a 2x4 stand myself. That way it can...
