    My First Grow: Soil, DWC, & Aeroponics

    Well, it has been fun, but this will be my final update. It will be bullet style because I really don't want to leave anyone hanging. I will do my best to keep it chronological. -Set up my HPS and started flowering my two biggest plants. -Took 12 clones from the biggest plant. -8 clones make...

    K1Ng5p4d3's Cardboard Box Grow (hehe)

    Hey guys, I'm thinking about ordering from attitude, but I'm not sure how tight security is through the Chi. I want to place a decent order for a one time risk... You all seem to like them. Just wondering what you all think about this? Thanks, -Solo-Man-

    K1Ng5p4d3's Cardboard Box Grow (hehe)

    Good shit K1ng. I've been lurking around for awhile and have to say thanks for getting me into bondage! I was updating my grow regularly until poking around here led me to believe I had a male... I was super depressed and had faith... and it turns out that a lot of people have no idea what...

    noob question!

    I love FF. Grow Big and Big Bloom for veg and Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom with Open Sesame/Beastie Bloomz/Cha-Ching for flowering. It has been very good to me and easy. Just don't over do it. Nute burn is very common, and not terrrible, but it will be a stunt and frustrating. Good luck...

    my new grow room...please help

    I don't know about eight... But a good half dozen should be good to start. I'm all about the cloning a branch or two to flower first... Will actually save you time if you end up with males. I like to pick the fat-striped seeds! They usually germ and grow the fastest for me. I will be...

    Check my SET UP...

    Sounds good... let's see some pics so we can see what you're dealing with. I am personally unfamiliar with "hempy buckets", but if it is a hydro system... godd choice. -Solo-Man-

    Need advice - just bought bio-grow and bio-bloom nutes (cloning advice would be cool)

    It's hard to tell without seeing the plant... But start small (I used 1/4 strength with FF) and work your way up. Over doing things seems to be the #1 downfall of new growers. I'm just starting and it took a lot of restraint to not just load em up. I almost killed my plants numerous times...

    organic hydro nutes

    Order FF nutes. They aren't too expensive and they last forever. I've got 5 plants and several seedlings and clones and my plants blow any of my friends' plants out of the water whether they are using chem nutes or whatever. I will update my thread soon if you want to see what they do...

    first time grower in 3rd wk of flowering

    if you have a needle and thread... cut the inside waistband of your jeans (small incision) or cuff and put them there. sew it a couple times just to hold it and your in. a friend brought seeds from amsterdam like that. -Solo-Man-

    The Alpha Beta Project - A Miniature Aquaponic Farm

    I don't know why, but this has me ROFLMFAO. Such a sweet idea. I've pondered it but feel I would go through way too many fish! The only thing I would have done differently is named one Masta Beta! LOL! I kill myself.... Nice work -Solo-Man-

    My First Grow: Soil, DWC, & Aeroponics

    So... Went to Walmart and got the supplies for the clone unit. I'm gonna build a few different flowering units so I can flower 2 plants at a time sequentially. Sort of a SOG theory. I also just place an order with HTG for a 400w HPS, Tiger Bloom, FF blooming nutes, some light hangers and a...

    First time grower,going to stick through it till the end

    Aerogardens are sweet, but quite an investment. Expect to pay around $150-200 for a reservoir and light system. You can build a reservoir for much cheaper and most people with an AG end up supplementing with CFLs. Tek has an awesome thread on the AG... a must read. It is actually why I...

    Micro ebb/flow (NOW DWC), all CFL ScrOG, perpetual Stealth locker

    Damn weed... wrecked my memory.. The main reason I was gonna post was to address the ice cube issue. I've heard that it is good to give ice cubes to your plants while flowering on an irregular basis; not everyday, you gotta keep em guessin'. The theory is that plants create THC due to stress...

    Micro ebb/flow (NOW DWC), all CFL ScrOG, perpetual Stealth locker

    Wow... That sucks, but you did the right thing. If there is one thing I have noticed about growing pot, it's that the more meticulous the grower, the better the results. You live and you learn... I honestly think that you may have saved them just in time. Impressive work (as always). I'm...

    My First Grow: Soil, DWC, & Aeroponics

    Ok, so time to invest! My plants are looking pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. Things coming soon... Cloning unit. Flowering unit. I will soon thereafter order my HPS and Nutes plus a cabinet with filtration. Any advice on digital ballasts vs. magnetic? HTG has some sweet deals but...

    My First Grow: Soil, DWC, & Aeroponics

    Ok, so I'm lazy and updating is just more work than I usually want to do. But I want to answer some questions and show some progress. After looking at Wolfie's setup, I grabbed my silver tape and put it on the lid of reservoir. I'm pretty sure that stuff is a close relative of mylar, either...

    First time grower,going to stick through it till the end

    You haven't given up... You just have to start over again. Did you watch the game last night? Where would we be if Da Bears gave up? Did you see Orton? Where would he be if he had just given up? He had the record for wins as a rookie QB (until Young and that D-Bag in Arizona) and then was...

    My First Grow: Soil, DWC, & Aeroponics

    This post has been long overdue on purpose. It was time to change the water, everything was looking good and I decided to up the dose. At first I used 1/2 the dose of nutes for 1 gallon of water mixed into 5 gallons. This time I was high and put in a full dose of nutes for 2 gallons and...
