    First For Me, anyone else?

    No issues with the health of the seedling. Over the years I've dialed in on what works. Plenty of ventilation great soil. Just have never seen this anomaly before.

    First For Me, anyone else?

    So this Critical Hog seedling is at 18 days. I almost pulled the plug on her because she was such a slow starter. However once I realized what was going on I thought I'd wait and see how it develops. Looks like she's been topped right out the seed. Like I said never have seen this before. I'm...

    Time and Temperature for Shatter

    Hey folks, trying to work out my technique for Shatter. I've included a picture of my last run, this is actually my second attempt at it. So I blasted fresh frozen bud into a Pyrex dish, placed the dish into a pan of hot water to boil off much of the butane. Placed the remaining oil into a...

    Water Temps

    So I want to thank y'all for chiming in on water temps. I agree with y'all on probably to small of a space and location to control water temps. One day I might stumble on a used 1/4 hp water chiller for cheap and try a recirculating hydroponics system. So in order to scratch my hydroponic...

    Water Temps

    Okay then, with all the self proclaimed grow guru's here I figured I'd have have at least one answer by now.

    Water Temps

    I'm thinking about moving into active hydroponics. Quick rundown on my grow space, I have a 32" x 32" x 84" tall tent, the tent is in an office closet. Summer time temps in the grow tent run an average of about 76 degrees F, sometimes peaking out at 83 and lows in the lower 70's. Fine for soil...

    After the Flood / SoG

    Hey y'all, I'm going to try and keep this short and to the point. On August 13th and 14th we were part of the great flood of 2016 here on the central gulf coast. We were hit pretty hard by the flood but we are well on our way to getting back to normal, we are back in our house and about 95% done...

    MH / HPS life expectancy

    Thanks for the info Rosebud. I believe both bulbs are rated for 12,000 hours. Seams like a stretch to me. But if I ran them as you said you run them changing them yearly that would be around 2200 hours per bulb per year, that sounds much more realistic. I forgot to mention for this last grow...

    MH / HPS life expectancy

    Hey everyone, I just finished my 5th grow, CBD's Crew Sharkshock. This is my first grow using HID lighting, my previous four grows were done with a MARS 192 x 3 W LED. So I actually learned to grow (began to learn) using LED's. My Mar's started to fail during my 4th grow but I still manged to...

    Rso

    There is a ton of great information about making RSO, on this forum and other places on the web. My question is not on the process of making RSO but rather what to use to make RSO? I've read that you should only use bud, but also I've heard talk of using the whole plant, that's where I'm...

    October's #4

    Well I'm taking the girls down tonight. I might be a few days early but with family coming in for Thanksgiving, and if I know my bunch some will stay 7 to 10 days! I'm happy with this grow, I think these buds are bigger than anything I've done in my last 3 grows.
