    Powder Mildew

    lol about the fizzy water comment. Read about what potassium bicarbonate does to the cell walls of fungi and their spores. Sounds like that epidemiological decay may have already been passed down that gene line... Greencure works as directed. Im using 1/4 dose with a total win 6 weeks into...

    Powder Mildew

    FYI anyone who tells you that PM is systemic (within the plant) doesn't know their ass from their elbow. PM is not just a MJ problem, in fact grape growers deal with it all the time. It is a fungus. Fungi are NOT systemic they spread via spore and only penetrate the 1st layer of the plant. The...

    New to DWC: need opinion of water quality of Portland water quality report...

    Thanks guys, looks like Ill be safe with the bull-run watershed. I am still debating a hempy bucket or DWC. I like that with a hempy you can add a refill reservoir so you can leave it over the weekend if needed, but you DWC guys seem to be getting much better results with the airstone... hmm.

    Is a CFL cabinet @ 525w (actual) 30,000 lumen in a 18"x22" cabinet too many lumen?

    No one said you cant use CFL, it is just that HPS is so much easier and efficient to use. Less heat, (I used to be under the impression that HPS would put off too much/much more heat (NOT the case with an aircooled hood). After doing a side by side comparison with MY OWN EYES and equipment with...

    Is a CFL cabinet @ 525w (actual) 30,000 lumen in a 18"x22" cabinet too many lumen?

    UPDATE: the cab caused too much heat and humidity even with a 6" vortex @ 400 some odd cubic feet a min... so I ended up with a cab FULL of foliage (3 plants were too many) and Powdery Mildue. That is where the 400w HPS and 3x3 tent came into play. =) and my god 400w HPS vs 400w floro is no...

    New to DWC: need opinion of water quality of Portland water quality report...

    Here it is, I was wondering if I needed a different source or to invest in a reverse osmosis purifier. Im tired of getting ripped off for gallons at the market. I think the tap is ok, super low ppm etc but I would like a RIO vet to look it over if at all possible so I don't cook my babies...

    HELP! 1st Grow - Heating problems!

    Hey man, I have the same wally world temp/humidity gauge as you and I was having a problem with high readings... Problem was the black case soaking in and building up heat within the unit. I put a piece of white paper over it and it gave me matching results to another thermometer I put in the...

    Is a CFL cabinet @ 525w (actual) 30,000 lumen in a 18"x22" cabinet too many lumen?

    So far it has held 82 the whole night with the carbon filters on the outtake vents. The problem was with my wallyworld temp/humility gauge. It was black plastic and would heat up under the lights giving high readings. I didnt think the air temps or wall temps were 88-89 where it was spiking at...

    Is a CFL cabinet @ 525w (actual) 30,000 lumen in a 18"x22" cabinet too many lumen?

    lol thanks! I might need to start a new thread once they go in and keep this as a build thread. Here is a diagram I came up with real quick and loose like, showing how the spread of the lights adds the lumen. I did not add the benefit of reflectors above the bulbs, just the throw of the light...

    Not a single reference to this myth that "lumens are not additive" has come to light or any examples, demonstrations etc. Every source I personally have come upon has stated that lumen DO add. Soooooo.... wtf are you guys babbling on about how 5 5000lm bulbs will only make 5000lm ? There is a...
