    Ready to chop?

    For what I've been told it all depends on what type of strain you're growing, and what kind of effect you'd like from it. If it's an Indica dominant strain, it will tend to have a more medicinal, body high effect. Good for pain relief. Whereas a Sativa will have more of a "head" stone, euphoric...

    cloning again + rep

    I've been cloning for 3 or 4 months now so I'll tell you what I've been doing, and I've had a good ammount of success. First of all, I have a black container. You shouldn't have light inside the container. If light hits roots, they will die. So if you're using plugs or anything like that, make...

    VISC's Blackberry Review :(

    I purchased a 10 pack of regular seeds from Vancouver Island Seed Company, and so far I'm very disappointed with their genetics. I've had 4 females in flowering now for about a month and 3 of them have sprouted male sacks. HERMIED! SAD FACE! Anyways, I figure I'll check them daily and clip off...

    My 400w HPS/MH burning the tops of my ladies

    I would get some string and tie down the tops that are touching the light. If you just let them burn, then they will be no good at harvest time. Don't just sit there and let them burn. Raise the light if you can.

    Proper Way To Grow Seedlings??

    I've had 100% success with just putting a 1/2'' hole in the soil, placing the seed in hole, covering with dirt, making sure the soil stays moist until it sprouts.

    mini fridge grow box.

    As for fans, just get a regular osculating fan and place it so that it blows air across the tops of the plants. That's pretty much all you need.

    mini fridge grow box.

    I've been using a 3 part nutrient solution from Advanced Nutrients. It's worked well for me. I'm not a hydro guy so I can't answer your setup questions, just make sure you do your homework. Sounds like you got some good advice from your local hydro shop. Keep up the good work.

    Calling All Noob Growers

    Ok so, I'm a noob growing in soil, and I just want to get this straight... Basically what you're saying to do is Flush....then right before it dries completely, water and feed? Then when it dries out, repeat the process? If this is what you mean, then would you give it more nutrients that...

    pot size? root bound? i don't know

    I agree, there doesn't need to be any arguments. You both prefer using different size pots, don't have to be angry at one another. We all know that's it's personal preference, you just have to do what works well for you. Peace to the world man! EDIT: If you think you're plant is rootbound...

    Cloning Help

    I would recommend building a DWC cloner. I built one a couple of days ago, and the fresh cuttings love it! No wilt at all! Very inexpensive to make. I would suggest the florescent light for cloning.

    Help with grow room

    A 600w is recommended for a 4x4 tent. I've had my 4x4 tent and with a 400w and it's plenty for my plants. A 600w would be fine for the size room your thinking about, in my opinion.

    quick easy to answer question for expereinced growers

    Indica's will flower faster than Sativa's. They are also easier to grow, less picky. If you want a quick crop, then look for strains with shorter flowering periods. And remember you can flower a plant whenever you like, it does not have to reach a certain age. You will get less bud from a...

    lol, I am no way a grow master, only on my 2nd grow now acctually. All I did was read for like a month straight before I started even considering buying equipment.

    mini fridge grow box.

    For setup, just whatever works for you. I mean yeah, light on top, two fans, one on top one on bottom. It's a pretty basic setup. As far as fire safety, I was at my local hydro shop and they had this really neat product called "ELIDE FIRE BALL" which would be great for a small area like that...
