Ja. Don't get I wrong. Me likey. Much much.

Wow. The end-effect seems to have been worth it, but I get nervous about intentionally damaging my plants. I feel they'll exact some sort of karmic revenge on me for it.

May we see a picture of the "photogenic" colas?

City Tap: 8.3pH 475ppm My Reverse Osmosis Water: 6.2pH 0ppm It makes a huge difference, especially in Hydro.

That is a REALLY cool article! I love DIY projects. You wouldn't have an enlargement of your patterns, would you? The OG links are obviously dead. Again. Nice job!

I use Coir (cocogro) for my banana plant. I mixed it with rinsed Hydroton. I used such a big pot that it takes a full 7-10 days between waterings. I used to have it on a timed drip system so it would get 2 minutes/day. The mold would get really bad when I watered it frequently, so now I just...

fdd2blk Everything OK, man?

KushMaster You'll be in good stead. Keep a thermometer in there (mounted on a wall) at the height of the plant tops and try to keep it between 70-85 degrees. With your height restrictions, I'd recommend starting your budding stage transition earlier than you probably think it would be...

Mogie I like the sand idea. I've also heard about soaking the sand in a hot garlic tea(or whatever agent you want), letting it dry out, then applying it as a dry layer above the soil. Also if you use a drip saucer in your pot, cover that in the sand too and place your plant pot back on top...

The smallest bottle of Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Grow costs like $8-12, and it's about the best hydro-organic nutrients you can buy (I'm sure many will troll this opinion). That's affordable, even if you're strapped. You spend more than that in energy consumption running those lights for a...

Hydroton must be flushed before using. Find a container about twice as large as the amount you need to flush. Put in Hydroton. Take hose and spray into the pile until its all floating on top of an equal volume of water. Take your hands and stir up the pile. Then let it settle for a few minutes...

My temps are usually around 60-65 in the winter, and 65-70 in the summer. That's the ambient room temp, not the temp in the box. Temp in the box ran around 5-10 degrees hotter on average. Cozy, but not too hot (the sodium was the hottest part, and reduced the growable height of the box by 6-10"...

You'll be fine with those two fans. I used to have a similar arrangement for what is now my clone/germ box. 70w sodium, 4x23W CFL, 2 80mm computer fans. You may find you run out of space real quick in there. I originally planned to go through harvest with mine, and the plants got way too big...

25 in a tight, fast 4'x4' hydro SOG. Use a big reflector, Jimi.

It depends somewhat on the size of the fans. If they are normal 80mm 12v case fans, they should do quite nicely in tandem. Put them up high in your box, and run them with separate AC->12v DC converters. cut some vent holes around the surface of the box floor, or on the lower sides if you can't...

BTW - I like the "good bugs eat the bad bugs" solutions. It's hard to go wrong with good soil nematodes, predator mites, and ladybugs (Did I cover all the bases there?).....not to mention good agricultural practices like keeping the room clean, changing/cleaning out the reservoir, controlling...

blackout You Aussies and your Vegemite! Actually Vegemite was added to the banned imports in the US last year. :hump: US bans Vegemite | NEWS.com.au Okay I was just joking. :peace: I know.....tits on a bull, mate.

What's this got to do with the DEA Raid?

And besides, cloning is great and all, but it's really rewarding to play matchmaker to various plants and see what kind of babies you get. Some of them can turn out real nice, and if they are, clone-em up for friends and future. You can even name it whatever you like! Variety is the spice of life.

And BTW, I'm not saying that cloning can't go on for a long long time. My mother had an enormous Jade plant (a plant which essentially clones itself) which started off as a clipping she got from some famous old plant in Italy. She always made a point to mention her "700 year-old bush" (yes, this...
