    Enough Light?

    I can only speak from my experience, but I prefer to veg under my cfls vs my mh. I use 6 23w cfls and 1 terarium uvb cfl. I wouldnt recommend flowering under cfls if you want any kind of quantity. I flower under hps because it gives me the best quality, and quantity for my money. I'm not sure...

    So sick of dirty medicine!!!

    bamacheese, I know where you are comin from. People using every chemical they can to make the plants get as big as possible, them spray them with every chemical they can to kill the bugs. The buds dont look "dirty", but they taste like hell, and are covered in poison. It's best to just grow your...

    Looking for feedback on tents

    I have been using cfls in my veg with wonderful success so far. I am only going to use the tent for veg, because I have a small room with a 1000w hps for flower. I am planning on using 2 200w cfl lamps with hoods in the tent, so i am not too concerned about heat. The area the tent will be kept...

    pics under hid lights

    just found them on amazon. $29.95 for the ones I have. I got them free, so I knew they couldnt cost too much. Now that I have figured out how to post pics, I think I will have to post a journal on my new baby. The one in the pic is 3 weeks in 12/12, and I have another that I started the day the...

    pics under hid lights

    These glasses have blue lenses, and I think that is part of why they work the way they do. opening the door and lookin in with the glasses on is like lookin out my front door with no glasses on. I have no idea how much the glasses cost, but they are easy on the eyes working under those lights...

    pics under hid lights

    Thank you. After screwing things up just about every way imaginable, mostly trying to see what would work, and what wouldnt, I think I finally found a system that works for me.

    pics under hid lights

    The first pic was taken just as the lights were coming on, so they werent warmed up enough to start putting the lines in the pic.

    pics under hid lights

    Anyone that has ever tried to take a pic under HPS lights knows how well that works. I ended up with a pair of Lumii grow room glasses, and noticed how big a difference they made. Just for hahas, I held the glasses in front of my camera phone and snapped a shot. It looked like I took the pic...

    First Grow, Hydroponics (DWC) or Soil (FFOF)

    I use advanced nutrients. sensei grow during veg, then sensei bloom with big bud, bud candy, and b-52 during flower. They have done good by me. I water every day when the lights first come on. I mix a gallon of nutes, and a gallon of staight ro water. I alternate on an every other day schedule...

    First Grow, Hydroponics (DWC) or Soil (FFOF)

    I am by no means a professional, but I have grown in both mediums. I learned in soil, then was taught how to grow in dwc and drip buckets by the owner of the local hydro shop. After a couple years of trial and error, I settled on using sunshine #4, and a daily watering schedule. After a 4 day...

    problem solved. It was the gardener.

    I have been reading random posts on here for a while now. Mostly when something went horribly wrong. After years of learning every possible way to screw up a grow, with the best equiptment I could afford, I sat down and started reading posts and journals start to finish. After realizing how bad...

    co2 control

    I think I'm gonna go without the co2 for now. I have a second fridge that Im working on that I am thinking about trying to enclose the bulbs in a glass/plastic unit with its own fans. Kind of like my cool tube light from my old set up. I will use the co2 calculator I found on here last night to...

    co2 control

    I have the co2 system from a larger grow set up. I figured, I have it, I may as well use it. I have 7 24w and 1 120w bulbs in the fridge, so I'm hoping that there will be enough light to get a decent result. I have used 400 and 1000w lights in the past, but thought I would try and keep the light...

    co2 control

    I'm getting ready to start a grow in a gutted refrigerator, and I have a question on adding co2. I have the bottle, solenoid, and timer from an old grow room. My question is, I am using cfls, and have 2 4" computer fans to evacuate the heat from the lights, but how do I keep the co2 in the...
