    Sick Plant, any help?

    Here's a few more pictures. Notice the brown spots, the droopines of the leaves, the folding upward of leaves, and the curling of the new mini leaves.

    Sick Plant, any help?

    I thought it was overwatering too...but I let the soil get REALLY dry a couple of times and then watered and they were still droopy. I use a little analog pH meter to measure the soil...real cheap little thing...prob. not accurate. I have a hanna pH meter but only use it for the water that I...

    Sick Plant, any help?

    Hey MP members, this is my project plant. Started her from bag seed, and honestly I didnt think I was capable of growing anything, but she's growing. She doesn't look too good though. She was started in a coffee can and I recently transplanted her to a 4 gallon bucket. She is roughly 3 weeks...

    My four babies / firstgrow

    Haha, 3patas, I see you're using make-up for your nutes too. You should show us how you made your toilet bowl hydroponic setup in the DIY area too. What are the toothbrushes for?? Trimming? Just messing with you bro....those plants look good and dizoelios too. Keep the updates coming, I'll keep...

    Hanna pH/ppm/EC Meter HI9813-0 to Measure Water and Soil?

    "why buy it without knowing about it first?" Because I had a chance to get a brand new $150.00 ph meter for $30.00. But hey, thanks for answering my question.

    Hanna pH/ppm/EC Meter HI9813-0 to Measure Water and Soil?

    I just bought this pH Meter. Does it measure the pH of the soil and the water? I bought it assuming I could measure both the water and the soil, but by the looks of the probe I don't think it is meant to measure soil. I read the manual, and no help in there. Thanks to anyone with help...

    Seedling Straight to 5 Gallon Pot

    I definitely see where you are coming from crazyhorse. I'm going to try several ways and see what I like. Thanks for the replies!

    Seedling Straight to 5 Gallon Pot

    Thanks for the reply Brouli. Definitely will consider your input when it comes time to water. Where is that vid on google? I've watched 2 or 3 You Tubes Vids, read Cervantes' book cover to cover, and I scan these forums daily, but still haven't come across this exact topic. Anybody have any...

    Seedling Straight to 5 Gallon Pot

    Good Night MP Members! I was reading through some grow journals recently, and I noticed a couple of the respected bros on this board were suggesting taking a seed straight from germ and putting it in to its final flowering pot. I like this idea b/c it is easy and cuts down on stress from...

    Metal Halide: How Far From Plant??

    Thanks for the replies. Yes, temps are under control so I will keep it at 24" and then probably move it a little closer. Thank you guys for all of the help!

    Metal Halide: How Far From Plant??

    How far do you guys who use MH keep them from: a. a germinating plant b. a vegging plant Mine puts out alot of heat so I was thinking about 24 inches. Just wanted an experienced second opinion. Thanks.

    Squirrel Cage vs In Line

    Getting temps where you want them can be difficult. What kind of light are you using? If it is an HPS or MH then you will probably have to run the fan you have hyperlinked 24/7, and the room will still prob be on the hot side. It's really case sensitive with exhaust fans and heat control. Try...

    CMF grow box size limitations?

    I bought inline fans for both light and cab estimated at 380 cfm so I think I should be fine. Theyorker, how often do your fans run? I assume they're on a thermostat no? Surely not constantly though huh?

    CMF grow box size limitations?

    Sorry Dada, but I want to get this straight. Do you have one or two exhaust holes in your cab and how many have a fan on them?? The way I took it is the only fan propelled exhaust you have in your cab runs directly to the exhaust outlet in your reflector and then you have an existing vent with...

    CMF grow box size limitations?

    What?? I am confused as hell. That's 44 cubic feet, not square feet. How do you know if a 90mm fan pulls too much or too little cfm to adequately exhaust his cabinet. Don't you need to the amount of cfm it pulls, not the diameter (or is it the radius that is measured?) of the fan? I am sure you...

    Grow Box Dimensions to Maximize Efficiency Question

    It is going to be a soil grow. It seems 3x3 is a relatively common size grow cabinet so I am going to go with that for my first run. Still unsure on my height, probably 7 feet. I think I will veg 9-10 plants and hope to get 6 females into flowering (might not happen that way). I would like to...

    Grow Box Dimensions to Maximize Efficiency Question

    Okay, I understand what you are saying. The particular Light I am planning on buying from my local hydroponics store is an HPS/MH system with a digital ballast that comes with a MH bulb that produces 35,000 lumens (35,000/4,000=8.75 sq. ft.) and an HPS bulb that produces 55,000 lumens...

    Grow Box Dimensions to Maximize Efficiency Question

    Hello to all MP members. First off let me say what an interesting and knowledgeable board you guys have here. I have been reading a little here and a little there for the past couple of months so I know the basics of growing weed. I have a couple of quetions, however, concerning how to design my...
