    Sick Mommy

    I have a Sour deisel mommy that i started last October and had kept inVeg until June of 07, at which point i brought this monster outside and transplanted. It literally grew in inches by the day to a 5X5 foot hedge. About a week ago, i noticed that the day after a really windy storm, the plant...

    Seeds showed up

    I just finished drying out my latest batch of Sour deisel and i noticed there was about 10 seeds that fell out while sorting. These beauties never came close to a male so i am a bit puzzled. I did have a short power outage that lasted around 2 hours during its 8 weeks but short of that there...

    How long before turning back lights

    My babies have been going on 12/12 for 39 days. I noticed that 6 out of 16 or so buds are starting to show amber tints in the hairs, not much but at least 8-9 hairs on a half a dozen buds. I know i am getting close but if i go by my grow chart, i should be placing them under 8 hours light in a...

    How to set up a gravity feed to my res

    Can someone give me a viable idea how i can set up my ebb and flow with a separate refill tank. I want to be able to maintain my water level in my main res by having it connected to a separate tub, controlling the level with possibly a float valve. i heard this being discussed before but i can't...

    Veg to Flower

    Not to sound like a tard, so when i place my 14-16" into 12/12 light, they are going to grow even bigger and thicker. I am trying to get a picture in my head of the growth cycle. So seedling to early veg (roughly 8-12" ht), then send to flower at 12/12 for even more growth?. Doesn't the 12/12...

    flood cycle question

    Thanks, Stoney. I adjusted allready. I am going to go with 15min on 1:45 off. Every two hours and at least once during the dark cycle. I have an air bubbler in my res. tank going 24/7. Temp 74`. Is this okay or overkill. I would think there can never be too much Oxygen. I have my nutes adjusted...

    Flood Cycles

    what would be a good starting point to set up my flood cycle for my ebb and flow. I was thinking around 5 floods a day. 15 min on and 3 hr 45 off. So basically every four hours and then none during the off hours, Midnight-6am. I know there are adjustments, i am just looking at a general point to...

    What to do?

    Hey guys, i posted here yesterday about needing a possible ballast for a 400MH Floodlight. I found upon opening this light that the ballast is internal so i am hooked on that end. I wired it all up last night and cranked er up out on my deck. After about 15 minutes i checked the heat factor by...

I have actually jumped the gun and have allready taken 4 cuttings. The problem is i don't fully know...

    Hydroponic growing medium

    I know that most of the postings i have seen here refer to Hydroton as the perfect Hydro growing medium. Has anyone had any luck with Accillite. I noticed it in my local Home Depot and it is basically a kiln fired medium for aquatic plants. No PH issues. The ingredient is as i said Accillite or...
