if you had 30 of those aks youd be set. 30 will fit under a 400. go for it. tell the lady to mind her own!!.. if you can. lol
All the light that hits the walls all day could be growing plants. I could prob have put twice as many hempstars under there and doubled the yield. most of my light hits the walls. on the hps setup.

Very true!!! The only other problem I have though is my mom, she doesnt want me to do this in her house anymore. I mean if I told her about cfl lighting maybe I could change her mind. I just dont want my mom to be the person who ultimately gets in trouble if word gets out some how, because we have heavy traffic through my house!!! I will figure something out, wish me luck!!!

BIG problem guys!!! Need help immediately!!! So my mom is telling me that the house smells like raw marijuana, and the windows in front and in back of our house are open, moments later the neighboor comes over and has a disscusion with my mom, explaining that he beleives there to be a marijuana grow going on really close, due to the smell of raw marijuana in the surrounding area... What do I do??? Harvest now, or harvest in like a week I heard somewhere about an emergency flush!!! Someone plz help, Im super paranoid right now, I think they might inform the police!!!

oh mad luck has been wished. mines getting out of control. i have to get that thing that you plug in and it tells you how much power youre using. my lights flicker every now and then and my ac fan shut down and it says on the screen insufficient power. So i know i have to cut back 200 watts or so. This weather aint helping. amc how hot does your room get? mine is getting insane. I honestly can put up with nearly anything but 95 degrees when i'm trying to sleep is crazy after 2 months. kinda wish it was winter again.

man. your stuff is fine to harvest now. do it. dont risk it. on the next grow plan out the smell issue better. just harvest right now. Get an airwick right now and put it at each window. even those 99 cent gel 1s work good. get on it man

even if they inform the police they cant just barge right in. get some airfreshener now and take care of the immidiate problem. For 20 bucks you can cover the whole house in airfresheners that will last a week. Or get an ionizer. cut your buds small enough that if the police actually did come you could flush them easily. there is no quick flush. a plant wll absorb what it wants. it should be fine

even if you ran straight water over the soil for 24 hours the plant would only absorb so much water and release so many nutes. It does it at its own pace which is about a week to 10 days. so no quick flush. you can cut the plant at the base and soak the cut end of the stem in water. that will clear it out somewhat faster. thats what i would do. cut the plant at the base and stick the stem in fresh water overnight. then dry and cure as you would. have it somewhere where you can flush it down the toilet right away. as long as you have time to flush down the toilet you are fine.

how much lighting and plants do you guys have... buy some insence and burn them... that covers up the smell really good

thats my prob. in 6 weeks or less i'll have at least 20 going and maybe more. Luckily i have the upstairs to myself. I think that anyone growing should vent the whole grow outside safely. I think now i'm going to take the time to do that. I've been cleaning my room and now have space for setting up new ideas. Collected some pollen today also. my bud should officially be seeded. But gonna take the pollen from all the plants. Dont want to waste it. Cant wait till the seeds start to drop and i can start the next crop. I am sealing the cab air tight right now cause i'm scared of the smell to. I'm not scared of police here but my family thinking i'm an idiot if i get caught. Gonna vent the whole thing outside through a 4 inch duct with inline fan and carbon furnace filter. Theyre like 10 bucks and work perfect.

So I harvested 3 of my 4 plants. My mom said she wouldnt mind if I finished my strongest most mature plant, so at least my whole grow wasnt a waste!!! I got 35 grams wet off of my gigabud. And Im keeping the ak-47's main stem in water right now, like 1982grower suggested!!! I will post some pics in aminute!!!

Thats pretty good. about 10 grams dry of that 1. just that money paid for the electricty and the grow. Really tackle that scent issue. I just installed all the wiring from my setups under the cab so its clean and out of site. Also going to put the hempstars in the cab on the shelf tomorrow. Got my lowryders on 18/6 now with 6 hours off while the hempstars are on. So now all the lights are only on for 6 hours a day. Got the digital powerbar hooked up. Best item for growing you can have. got the lights and fan on the timer side and the pumps on the permanent side. I'll post picks in a sec. The males are hideous.

The trimmed buds are the gigabud. The smallest whole plant is the popcan ak-47, The larger one is my biggest but most immature ak-47!!!

Damn. that sucks your holding off. That bud could last you a little while. maybe till next grow dep on how much you smoke. Its a nice pile. cant wait to be there. heres mine today. look how ugly these tied up males are. i didnt care if i broke the stems or anthing. just bent them in there and tied. the rest are starting to bud and it looks like theres tons of sites. def get this timer. the 1 sides timed and the other is a reg powerbar. and it was only 15 dollars. going to have to vent the cab through the opening in the door. dont really want to cut holes in the cab. prob do it tomorrow.
