Hi Smoka, I use a microscope because I like to harvest just as the trichs are turning milky, get a high compared to a stone. This is a cheap one like I had first http://www.starmagic.com/PenTelescope-8x-Micro-30x.html a bit tricky to use but its good enough to see the trichs, if you have a...

Hi guys, I stumbled across this report on tomato feed, found it interesting and I thought I'd share it, especially the comparisons on the last page http://www.tomatogrowing.co.uk/TomatoWhichReport.pdf

Hi Luciferateme, I use a heater at night, I don't like there being more than 8 degrees C difference between day and night. If I was changing my day to night I'd be more comfortable leaving them in darkness for 24 hrs rather than a 24hr light period. Or you could get a thermostat and leave a...

Thanks hobbes. . . Its amazing what information you can get when you know the right search term to use help much appreciated jack

Thanks for the replies - just to clarify it's the whole branches I am thinking of pruning. Really I should have pruned in veg but I didn't. The buds are tiny, maybe one tenth the size of the buds higher up. The branches are growing strong but with small buds and small dark green leaves...

Hi All, I'm nearly 5 weeks into flowering hawaiian snow so I've about another 7+ weeks to go. On one plant there is quite a lot of small buds growing on the lower branches and they are stretching for the light. I'm in 2 minds whether to prune some of the lower branches now to let the the...

you're right about 125 being the limit - the buds at the very end are looser than the others, but a loose bud being better than no bud I'm happy to have it hanging on there. I think I will swap over to B Jack

It's a SCROG grow so the complete area is full of bud. I hadn't really thought about what way to hang the bulb so I hung it as in pic A simply because it looked neater, but now having ruminated over a couple of spliffs on the matter I'm tempted to hang it as in pic B It'd be interesting to...

Its a Dutch barn reflector - open ended

The length is 1.25 metres and the width is .75 metres. I suspect that if there is any difference in the 2 setups it may be only a couple of percent but hey every % helps Jack Angel :peace:

I've attached a quick sketch - it might explain a little better Jack :peace:

Hi All, I've a 1.25 x .75 metre grow going under a 600W HPS. The bulb is mounted horizontally under a dutch barn type reflector. I hung the lamp centrally in line with the longest side. Now I'm wondering does more light get emitted from the sides of this setup and perhaps I should consider...

The reason I asked this question was I had a plan Plant 20 lowryder and a week later 10 hindu kush in the same grow room - the lowryder is auto flowering so its straight through with 20 on / 4 off from start to finish, and this suits the veg stage of the hindu too. Plan was to harvest the...

Thats the point - getting more light and growth in any 24 hour period, 12 on / 6 off / 12 on etc.

Hi All, I hope you can help me with this question. Has anybody experimented with a photoperiod of 12 on / 6 off during flowering ? I've tried searching on the net to no avail. Lot of discussion about increasing the time the light is on but most methods consistently keep the dark period at...
