If you are using soil then most of the nutrients are in the soil. If you are thinking anout going hydroponic then yes. Tin foil is not good as it creates hot spots and can kill plants. Painting walls flat white will be better. Do a search for Panda Film. It is an affordable plastic film that is...
To keep vibrations sounds down you should find latex rubber and mount it in between the fan and what ever you are mounting it to. Insulate the walls will also help with the noise a great deal. Motor noise can be muffled by wraping a peice of insulation batting around it. I am really happy I own...
Yes, if you are running the setup in the beginning of this post. Scrubber through cooltube through fan. Every filter has a cfm rating on them. It also seems that every filter manufacturer has their own formula to figure everything out. Math that would effect CFM flow would be length of hose...
I wouldn't use pvc for a few reasons. 1st is the fact that it is too limiting to run rigid anything. You will find that as your plant needs change so will the preferred placement of the light. IE light movers or rail movers will become a challenge to exhaust. Ideally you would want the smoothest...
If you are using the reusable dessicant pellets that are colored blue USE CAUTION. They get that color from being treated with sodium Cobalt which is a heavy metal. Use PPE when handling the product and you will be fine but I just thought you should know. Sorry, I am a Haz/Mat tech so safe...
I would somewhat agree. However, you better be careful and filter incoming air from any chance of heavy moisture making it from the inlet to the lightbulb. It should also be screened off to avoid rodent entry. The contraction of the hose should be temporary and is an indication of Kick @$$ cfm...
They started from clones from a loving mother. Day 2 of transplant and all is well. New 1k cool tube is odered and should be here J1 or close o Happy New Year.
I came upon this while researching different operations and thought it might help someone else. It is an impressive guide. You can get it at http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CMJ6GMRJ All credit must go to Over Growers as it is there collection of great work. :cool::!:
I don't know what respective states are represented here but possession of hydroponic equipment is very common for various legal uses. So if you buy from a police front they still lack any evidence of illegal operations. You grow stuff and look shady is not something to take to a judge for a no...
The bottom line is light is only one of the factors in your total yield. Your yield should be larger but to quantify it by 60% more yield may be hopeful. Someone would have had to test this to tell for sure and I believe in go big or go home so I started with 1K from the start. Topping will...
Check the ph of the drain off. May be too high locking out the nitrogen. Some yellowing can be expected during the flowering stage. Does the rock wool have salt buildup? I would FLUSH< FHUSH<FLUSH with distilled water only. Good luck
