    Like the name says....

    My advise would be a thermostat to control the temps. Titan, CAP, Hydrofarm, as well as others. 62 isn't horrible at all, not 'perfect', but not bad. Peace, Superman

    Like the name says....

    Sorry about your friend! But he left you some pretty good tools to work with. Probably way too much for the tent you have though. And some great advise from the other members. A bigger tent, or grow room, would be the best way to make use of what you have. Like Mr. Hopper mentioned, they don't...

    What yarddog said. Stagnant air is not good.:aok: And what Hushpuppy said, :aok:the swaying and movement stimulates the plant to build stronger stems to hold up those big buds you've got coming. Peace, Superman

    Need advice on problem in week 5

    Man, that's a bummer!!!!! I can catch spider mites early by spotting the white spots on the leaves where they feed on the chlorophyll. But a mite that feeds on the buds is not as easy. Just wondering what the heck they eat until flowering?? I know a lot of folks may not like these products but...

    LED Drama

    Looks like their final message was that the best deal in LEDs are the ones made by Chinese school girls. Child labor does help keep the price down!!:rofl: Peace, Superman

    Drying

    This may sound silly but when I've got buds that need a little more moisture I just use a straw and a 1 qt zip-lock baggie. Put the buds in the bag and run a fountain drink straw all the way to the bottom of the bag. Seal the bag as tightly around the straw as you can and just gently blow...

    Talk about **!

    I have to agree big time!!! I can maybe see the average user being hit a little harder, but trying to squeeze all that extra money out of the patients with a legit conditions is **. Peace, Superman

    Hortilux T5 w/ UV rays

    Yes, there are risks. But there are some simple precautionary measures one can take. Like not staring at the damn thing!!! Some UV glasses if you're really paranoid. They're no different than the sunlight we live with every day. And they have no advantage except during late flowering. The...

    LED Recommendation (Calling all Veterans)

    Man, that Spydr is one nice looking light. Very user friendly too!! Sure would look good sitting next to 'my' Lumigrows. Yeah, those 325s will produce some plump, rock hard buds too!!!:aok: Peace, Superman

    Flood Table Help

    Oh no. They'll grow around them and spread out on the bottom of your table. The clay will retain the moisture and nutrients until the next flood cycle. A lot of folks will start the plants in the smaller rockwool cubes and then just place them into the basket of pellets. Your plants will need...

    Flood Table Help

    Are you going with the drip like G13 or flood and drain. Mine are all flood and drain in 6" net pots with hydroton clay pellets. I flood for 15 min every 3 hours. If you're using rockwool, most folks I've talked to use like 4" cubes and will flood every 4 hours because the wool will retain...

    Comparing hid to led lights

    Yeah, commercially, high dollar LEDs are a huge investment in something that 'might' and 'might not' make it long term. I believe that most larger grow opps use LEDs, when the use them, as supplemental lighting in large greenhouses. They say they can dial in just what their particular crop...

    LED Recommendation (Calling all Veterans)

    I have 3 Lumigrow 325s and a couple 650s and they work great, but they're pretty intense so you need some head room with lights like those. I too think the Illumitex would be great. More for the principle and design than the price. Getting an even spread and the right spectrum of quality diodes...

    Comparing hid to led lights

    Not to stir up a stink, but I use LEDs and love them. I use HPS and they work great as well. But I don't have to change the bulbs every 6 to 12 months with LEDs. LEDs with the right spectrums are just as, or more productive, watt for watt than HIDs. Another mistake people make is buying a...

    Hortilux T5 w/ UV rays

    When adding UV make sure the bulb is giving you UVb. UVb during the last couple weeks of flower will help produce higher % of THC. During Vegg and early flower has no positive affects. Higher levels of UVb creates stress. One of the ways the plant protects its reproductive areas is to produce...

    What is the best ph and ppm tester?

    ^^^^^ Oh yeah, I've got one and it's worth the extra you pay for Bluelab. That model is tuff, I've done everything, but beat somebody to death with it, for years now and it still works like a charm!!! You can find some lesser expensive Ph meters that work just as well for the money tho. I...

    mag deficient

    Man those vegg plants look great!!! Most problems go back to the basics in hydro. As long as the water is aerated and a good temp range, they're fed what they need, and the Ph is controlled things will usually do alright. I've gota feeling the Ph is a little low for good Mag uptake. Mag is...

    Onward to my second grow!

    It's a soil like mixture but without any organic nutrients in it. I call it neutral for lack of another word. It's really just a medium for the roots. You have total control of the nutes and levels. Your plants will get what ever you give them. It has good buffers to help keep the Ph at good...
