    Can someone give me some example pics of when a plant is ready?

    That's awesome, thanks! Mine are much whiter, so not quite ready.

    Can someone give me some example pics of when a plant is ready?

    I've seen some examples online that look a lot different from each other but say they are ready for harvest. This is a great tutorial (http://www.growweedeasy.com/drying-curing), but I'd like to see some pics from the experts saying "it should look like this" before I start. Thanks!

    Supplemental light for flower (6500k or 5000k?)

    The tent is 60" tall, 48" wide, 24" deep. The HPS puts out 16,000 lumens. I don't know what the CFL puts out (a conservative estimate is between 9,200 and 10,200, per my research). The 5000k CFL puts out 8000 lumens. I also just got my hands on a 36w LED Grow Light (12 3w LEDs, 3 blue & 9...

    Supplemental light for flower (6500k or 5000k?)

    Right, but that didn't answer my question, I'll be clearer. One plant is under 150w HPS, the other is under 150w 2700k CFL. I can get one more light, tops, in there right in between them. I have several 150w 6500k and 150w 5000k CFLs. I only use the 6500k's, though. The 5000k came with a...

    Supplemental light for flower (6500k or 5000k?)

    I have two spare CFL's - a 150w 6500k and a 150w 5000k that I am currently not using. I'm in the flower phase and in theory could fit another light in, but would either of these spectrum's provide ANY benefit vs. the cost of the electricity they would consume. Thanks!

    help finding short strain for micro sog

    Have you looked at various breeders sites and saw how small some of their auto's grow? Some grow right at 2' to 2.5', so you could easily control them a bit and be fine. CMC Auto Sour Mellon and CMC Auto Masszar are two that come to mind. Two footers, I believe. Just a thought.

    Scrog frame

    I think more importantly, yours is reusable. Just clean it between uses and the thing will last forever! Props man!

    How hot is "too hot"?

    Good points, Bakatare - my thoughts were the same as yours. I've got a filter at the top sucking the hot air out of the tent, at the same time I've got an A/C unit blowing cold air in. Outside the tent it swings from 66 (overnight) to 74 (when I'm here all day). It might not sound like it...

    Autoflowering and pot sizes

    Suit yourself, but here is what I learned today. Which root ball do you want? ----- In case you were not familiar with the terms “root strangulation” or “girdling,” it is when the roots of a plant slowly strangle itself by circling around the base. In pots, this is caused by the growing roots...

    Autoflowering and pot sizes

    I'm a rookie, so I don't feel TOO bad, but I was unfamiliar with fabric pots until I looked them up just now. Aparently they are pretty cool and I'm going to give them a go on the next time out. One company called Genesis Fabric Pots says on their site "YOU CAN’T OVERWATER YOUR PLANTS IN A...

    How hot is "too hot"?

    Thanks all. I've also got one of those Acurite's that show high and low (temp and humidity). Humidity runs 17-32%, and temp runs 77-88 (currently 84). I think it might be where I'm placing my temp reader? I'll move it around over the next day or two and see what it shows.

    How hot is "too hot"?

    It's 23% humidity and if I put my hand over the plant you can't even feel heat. There is a huge A/C unit pumping 70 degree cold A/C into the bottom of the tent. The temp reader is directly under the HPS (maybe 6-7") which is why I think it's in the 80's? I've got one fan blowing on the CFL's...
