Suddenly I am having a heat problem in my tent although the temps outside are cooler and I am using the same method as last grow when I had no issue with the temp in the tent. However, I replaced my bulb with a Sylvania. I am using a 400 watt bulb. It seems to me that 400 watts will...

Popped 5 beans in to germinate today for my next grow. Mandala says just pop the beans into the soil. However, these are a couple of years old so I am germinating them between paper towels.

Not much luck germinating but got 3 to take. They are now 5 weeks from seed. Used paper towel method of starting one batch, had to soak the second bath then use paper towels. They seemed to bust open and then stop growing. But these three remain. Now in FoxFarms Ocean Forest. Using PH down...

I downsized my grow and now only have a 20 by 36 by 60" tent. I have a 334CFM 6" max can fan and can filter. The filter won't fit in the tent so I thought I would pull the air through the tent with the fan in the tent and push it through the filter connected by ducting with the filter outside...

I got my teeny tiny yearly bonus this week, so I ordered my very first vaporizer. I had a hard time deciding between Da Buddha and the Extreme Q. It was a hard choice cause of all the great feedback on this site on Da Buddha. But I did want one that would both fill bags and that I could use...

I am entering 6th week of flowering and just got some Clearex for removing salts from the soil. My water is 8.2 ph so I use ph down to correct it. But seeing is how I just want to wash out the salts, do I need to correct the ph in the water I am adding the Clearex to? Can I just add it to...

I love to just sit in my backyard in a large city watching urban wildlife. It's amazing how close wildlife will allow me once used to my voice and presence. Last year a rabbit dug a nest and had her young not 4 to 6 feet from me while I sat in a swing speaking low and gently to her. She had...

I had a little trouble germinating Full Moon (hence the discontinuance of my grow journal). Since this was my first non bag seed grow, I decided to switch to the free seeds Nirvana sent me so as not to waste any more Full Moon seeds. Never had a problem germinating anything before (lol)...

I put together a spreadsheet for the grow journal with the first page general information and the second page the date record of progress. I will attach photos into the spreadsheet journal. Started germination yesterday. P.S. Deleted old thread incorrectly titled New Moon (thanks for the...

Pics below. One still looks female, the rest look like this... these are herme's, right? Oh well, wash down the cabinet and start from scratch with second round of bag seed. Not spending money on seed till I get it right. I guess it is true, what doesn't kill her makes her stronger.

Here are photos of my grow cabinet I made with NIC Cubes and industrial strength wire ties, some old pvc , reflective cloth, coroplast, panda film, wind resistant clear plastic and a bird cage pan, a zipper, and of course a can fan and vortex fan. Oh yeah I also found some old plastic grating...

I made a veg cabinet from nic cubes, wire ties, coroplast, 1.0 R value insulation (for near the lights rather than the coroplast that might warp over 100 degrees), pandafilm and reflective cloth. Oh yea, some pvc. Not a nail or screw used. I had all but the pandafilm and reflective cloth...

Looking for a great weed from Oaxacan area of Mexico and came across El Dorado by Nirvana. Has anyone tried it that can give their impressions? Also, anyone come across any panama red crosses at any of the seed banks? I checked a couple and did not find anything. Finally, I have a touch...

I'm looking for an exhaust for my 400 hps light and a suggestion was a vortex inline. I noticed they are 172cfm while a Dayton Blower I can get for 30 bucks cheaper and it is a 273cfm. However, I am wondering if the inline is actually more efficient for drawing heat from the reflector (it is a...

I now have my 400hps system with Daystar reflector and am wondering what others recommend as a venting fan for the light. It has 4" duct capability. I was going to vent it out the through the top and bring fresh air in through the bottom. Come to think of it, recommendation for fans to...

Does anyone have any experience with this reflector? It says it cuts down on 75% of the heat generated by the light. Experiences or comments? Specs below as best as given on the site. 7 3/8" H x 12.5" W x 18.5" L Full Specular, 99.85% pure Aluminum with 95% reflectivity, interior...

I have bag seed for about 3 growing tests, so I don't feel so bad screwing up this badly. I am learning a lot about how the plants look and should look. Germinated 9 bagseed about 3 weeks ago. First mistake I made was to germinate and start to grow them inside as if they were normal...

I have heard the concerns and researched lighting. So far my little ones are doing okay despite all I have put them through. (Sure hope what doesn't kill them makes them stronger). I have a a string of 5 = 6 watt leds. From what I have learned, 13 watts per square foot should be barely...

Having apparently reached a late mid life crisis, I decided to do an indoor grow of my own. I mean how hard can it be. In the 60's and 70's I lived on a farm and germinated the seeds and just popped them in the ground outside. These are just weeds after all. Since them life got in my way...
