    Nevermind the Bullocks...

    Too bad those ain't no "pistols!" That's a boy, right? By the way, to anyone about to jump on me about MJ and guns, that's a musical reference. I am sure more than a few of you get it... the rest of you have google! :)

    Mythbusters test reflective materials

    watching mythbusters, and they are testing reflective material for the most effecient. Now, they were using bronze materials so silver ones might be different. (They were making a bronze age death ray). They tested a mirror, mylar, shiny plastic and polished bronze. (they were all bronze...

    Boo's Smelly Pig grow

    Got some seeds that claim to be Hog's Breath x Skunk #1 (hence Smelly Pig). Germenating 2 for mothers. Would do more but already have 2 mothers and one POTential mother (waiting on sex). If that one goes female, mother one goes bye bye (she was such a weak mother!). If male, it, of course, goes...

    Head high or body high

    Me? I just get high or higher. :hubba: I can never notice a difference between one and another. Well, beyond good and better. Does that make me a bad stoner?

    Clones, Hermies and Gender, oh my...

    So, as I read through the boards, I see people talking about stressing their plants out and creating hermies. Can this happen with clones? Also been reading Mutt's suggestions on creating more females from seeds and that got me wondering: if I take a cutting from an immature plant, is there a...

    My dilema...

    Okay, I am about 1-1.5 weeks from harvest but I've run out of room in my veg chamber and it has overgorwn! No more room to train and they are growing right into the light. Normally this is where I'd put them in my flower box. Any trimming means a set back while it regrows. So, should I harvest a...

    16,000 lumens of CFLs v. HPS (cost comparison)

    If you are buying CFLs, it is cheaper to buy many lower wattage than few larger. At 1000bulbs.com a 55 watt CFL costs $16 each and offers 3600 lumens so you'll need five to get 18,000 (I know, it's more than 16,000) lumens and ideally you will need one set for veg and another for bloom...

    The Ladies In My Closet

    Here are a few pics of my ladies. Not sure the strain, started a bunch a while back and sort of lost track of who was who. :( Only managed to keep one lady alive to clone. So these are all from her (kind of whimpy mother but the only one to surive!). Most likely bag seed from some high quality...

    what happens with wrong spectrum?

    I know all about what spectrums you need for what, but what happens if you, say, veg under bloom? Since buying my HPS I have been using my floros for veg and I have a wonderful t-5 fixture but filled with bloom bulbs. I do plan to buy veg bulbs for it, but it's not in my budget for a month or...

    is a medium really necessary?

    Or could you just suspend the plant over aerated water? I just started using the buble cloner found in the DIY section (thanks Massproducer!) and wondering if I could just take my clones straight from the cloner and put in a two liter bottle using the 1/2" hose (I'm using 1/2" PVC pipe) to...

    Things I learned the hard way!

    When I first started growing maybe 6 years ago, I read a couple of grow guides and jumped in headfirst. I was living in a country where I didn’t exactly speak the language and I couldn’t find any bud. Buying equipment was difficult, not speaking the language, but CFLs were quite easy...

    Green Leaf methods

    Wonder if there are any methods I can use for green leaves/trim? I downed some of my weaker girls to make room for the stronger ones. They were about 3 weeks into flower so there are some small buds on them. Anyway I'm rather imaptient and want some for the weekend besides so I don't really want...

    Hog's Breath + Skunk #1

    Got some beans. Label says they're Hog's Breath and Skunk #1. I've grown Skunk before, but not HB. Anyone have any suggestions on making the most of this strain?

    Preharvest Flush

    Question: rather than a preharvest flush could you just chop it down and stick it in a vase of water for a day or so? Would that work? And if it does, could you add flavoring that way? I am think of that childhood science project where you stick a flower in some water with food color and that...

    Lumens and tube flouros

    I have some t-5 2' fixtures. One is rated at 8000 lumens. Now, since they are 2 foot long tubes does that mean that every plant under that light (which is within 1-3" of my plants, is getting showered with 8000 lumens? Since it covers an area roughtly 2'x1' does that mean that it is basically 8k...

    Yet more ?s about cloner...

    Hi. Looked through some of the other posts and didn't see anyone asking, so I will: does the container need to be lightproof? I'm making a mini version (since I don't need nearly that many clones!) and using a clear plastic shoe box. Should I wrap that sucker up in foil tape? Thanks!

    Simple Hash Shaker

    Take two 1-quart plastic cottage cheese containers (and 1 lid) and cut the top off one and put the lid on it. Cut a square fabric large enough to go between the two container and rubber band it on tight. The fabric should be fairly "loose." I used a small piece of sheer curtain. Nylon stocking...

    How I discovered MJ

    Hey all. been growing on and off for a few years. Started when I lived someplace where you couldn't find any bud, but seeds were sold in just about every headshop as novelity items. That's been a few years. Started growing again about a year ago. Anyway, how I discovered MJ: When I was a kid...

    Woes of high wattage CFLs

    I have had terrible luck with my CFLs! I bought a 200 watt for flowering and two 105 for vegging. One of the 105s broke when I bumped it with the reflector within a week. At some point in time 1/2 the 200 watt stopped working (hope that means I still ahve 100watts!) I replaced it with a 150 and...
