Ask for 10 000k, or 14 000k bulbs instead of 6 500k. My supplier doesn't carry them yet. Their spectrum is more centered on blue. The 3 000k bulbs are extremely efficient :aok: Can't think of much, they've been easy on me once I got them hung. I can have leaves an inch or two away without any...

Strange to hear you're having success with a synthetic version of THC.. do you have similar effects with the real thing?

That should work. Not sure about the optimal mix of color temps though, guess you'll see if it works. How does your canopy look? It's best to spread it out like an even layer, so you can lower the fluos right above them. Haven't had any experience with HPS.. but I'm happy with my T5s for the...

Depends on what space you're growing in. I'm flowering successfully under 8 4' t5s. My space is about 4footx3foot.

I'm really stoned too. :D That'll be enough light for flowering. Optimal would be 5 000 lumen per sqr foot, or 80 000 lumen, but 69 000 will work. I would hang them horizontally, with as little light from the MH being blocked.

Damn, a whole cig in that? *cough cough* ;)

2.5 x 3 = 7.5 square feet 7.5 x 3000 lumens = 22500 You're going to need around 22500 lumens for that space. Right now you only have 6260. You'll have to pack in a couple more cfl, or upgrade, if you want decent herb. Hope this helps :)

My 0.02$, based on my personal experience, is just to make yourself understood by the kids. If you allow/disallow it, let them know why, and make sure they remember to keep their priorities in order. :)

I'm glad to hear none of you guys got in trouble. Some lost equipment, and your neighbors lost reputation, is a pretty easy break. Maybe you guys should take this as a karmic hint.. just look at what this 'commercial' business does to your relationships. Interesting grow, nonetheless :)

I'm years behind in keeping up with UFC.. that site has an index of old fights?

I suggest you blow air through the scrubber, so you can save some growing room. This would also give you the option of pulling air through your reflector. I'd keep the fan attached directly to the scrubber. I've never heard of it being more efficient to pull air through. :confused2: So you're...

My understanding is that the plant will absorb all the goodies left in the dying leaf, so clipping it isn't recommended. At this point of your grow, a couple dead leaves won't really affect the end result, you're practically there :aok: There is an optimal time at which you should harvest...

20 :lama:

I assume they're talking about the quality of the bud. Here, most assume that low-potency, airy bud is 'outdoor' grown, mid-grade is 'indoor' grown, and the sticky dense stuff is 'hydro' grown. I've discussed with the dealer how this is all fantasy, sort of like how people make up strain names...

:argue: :**:

In exchange for this information, I want 2% ownership of the diamond, if it's a diamond at all. :D

Is there a way to intelligently estimate how much of an organic mix (or tea) should be used? I'll soon be trying a tea of worm castings, and two bat guanos.. really I'll just be guesstimating how much is appropriate. I assume that, even with teas, PPM pens are rather useless in organics.

True, hence this cramming session break :) The person below me doesn't use 'guanos' because of the smell

Your diagram makes sense to me. You're using the filter on the exhaust, so it cleans all air exiting the growroom. I put the carbon filter (attached directly to the fan) outside of the box, with ducting from the growbox. This saves me a little inside growspace. I can easily change the place of...

Awesome first grow! I hope the smoke report goes well :D S'ashame those pics aren't a little clearer, the camera isn't doing Tempest B. Sensimilla justice. I didn't see it mentioned, but did you ever flush the plants for harvest?
