i do still have the detroit diesesl beans

Seems the one thing Detroit does right is municipal water, mine comes out of the tap @120 to 127 ppm, all i do is knock off the chlorinines with a carbon filter. 2b2s

I agree with all the above with one exception, I do not use tupperware, instead I use brown paper grocery bags (after I get a nice crisp snap when I bend a stem) for about 5 to 7 days then I go to jars which I open approx 5 min daily. 2b2s

it is sad that America has become a pawn of multi national corporations and the federal reserve. If we stopped our imperialism, our economy would improve drastically. It is expensive to maintain 700 + military bases worldwide, not to mention the super secret places where ppl just disappear. 2b2s

I almost forgot you are using weak lights so full strength @ 2 E.C. is prolly a bit strong, maybe more like 1.5 E.C. would be more appropriate for you. Ph has an anglefire page (link at bottom of post) that was really informative. Ph invented the Lucas formula which is 0-5-10 and 0-8-16...

bigjuhin, I'm not saying that you would be as well off using just water, I'm saying you don't need to make big mike any richer than he already is lol. I have seen some very fine grows done in Miracle Grow for penny's on the dollar compared to some of the more popular commercial hydroponic...

with 2 - 6" fans u shouldn't have a problem with heat. I used a Pyrex Bake-a-Round in my first box to hold my light and carry heat off. One thing I forgot to mention is nutrients. Nutrients do not make your plants grow big. Light makes plants grow big. Again, you can not feed your plants...

be careful of hydro shop they will try to sell you things you A.)don't need and B.) prolly cant use anyway. it is better to know what you are going in there for before you get there and stick to what you want not what has the best profit margin for the retailer. 2b2s

bigjuhin, he probably told u to go 12/12 from seed in small pots to give u a mini sea of green. basically budsicles or buds on sticks, given the space you are growing in you may want to try a scrog. Either way it will be a great learning experience. I hope you are running bagseed or something...

light light light, that is what makes plants grow big buds. If u need a lot of bud get a space where u can run a big light. I can give u some advice that will save u a lot of money if u decide to go with an HID system. Don't buy a 400, buy a 1k because u will end up there anyway. I started...

I agree with smokinrav u will be measuring in grams not ounces. that being said there are a couple things u can do to improve the grow. first thing I would do is to nix the foil and paint flat white. flat white is arguably the most reflective thing on the planet, remember art class? white is...

Hey La Dodger, I am referring to a filter that is a no loss filter not an R.O. filter. Most cites water treatment facilities add ammonia to the chlorine to make chlorimine which will not bubble out with an air stone, chlorimine must be removed with a carbon filter, much like a britta I...

@muyverde, I snap the stems all the time when training my girls. if u snap it just make sure it is not bent over too much more than 90 degrees so the transport system still works. in a few days u will get a big hard knot at the break site. I do this on purpose it seems to stimulate the...

@ closetgardner, you will know when the roots hit the res when u get the growth spurt, u will absolutely know when it happens cause they seriously take off. @ la dodger, Have you considered an RO or at least an dual carbon filter for the hard water? 2b2s

I ran hempy buckets for 5 years and if you ph your water first you will see big rewards. It is true you do not need to check ph, but only if you want marginal results. Hempy will even tell you that he ph'd his water and checked ppm's. I tell you this from experience, buy the meters, they...

just a quick note about the detroit diesel the pix at irievibe are pix jeffman took as he was running this under an 400 watt led system. I run these under 1k and my results are much better. These girls do swell just like all other strains if you are not impatient and let them go to maturity...

I bred them and they are not f1's. I spent 5 years back crossing the SD IBL from Rezdog to the Clone momma ECSD. There are typically 2 phenotypes in these beans the purple which has a really sour dank taste and the green pheno which leans to a sweet fuel taste the latter is my personal...

I have used hydrobuddy calculator and started my own stuff too. I wish I could figure out what would be the best bloom formula from the preloaded recipes in hydrobuddy's data base of recipes. I use r.o. water to mix my raw salts, but use tap when mixing the A & B solutions. My tap water is...
