    Importance of an EC meter

    I work at a hydro store, and I always recommend soil for beginners. Even if they're really hung up on going hydro right out of the gate. I still have to sell them whatever they decide that they want, but I atleast tell them I think they should get a soil under their belts first. One other...

    Soil and Hydroponics Together - Any Experience?

    http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/8m.html They explain perched water tables and what causes them at that link. I don't understand how hydrotron would act as an impermeable layer to cause a perched water table.

    Light Cycle

    That's a matter of debate for some growers. You won't have problems going with either one the whole way through. Still.. which one will provide the best end result? You're going to have to make an educated guess. My mentor ran 24/0 for veg every time with good results. I'm now running 18/6...

    I need some input

    I voted go. Get your meds, chill out at the house, devote the rest of your day to improving your grow or pursuing a personal interest instead of sitting thinking about how you're out and debating the wait for the ride. Time not wasted, is time not missed.

    Seedling Growing Wrong?

    Definitely block the light from coming through the sides of the container. The first set of leaves are called the cotyledon. Gently remove the shell; the seedling will push it off eventually anyways it'll just use more energy to do it without your help. Looks fine. That sometimes happens...

    The Lost Art of Foliar Feeding

    Very informative thread. Threads like this are great for me, because I take what I can from the thread itself and read up on the topics elsewhere also. Thanks to everybody who contributed. + rep for spl1 and Uncle Ben.

    Did I do the wrong thing? Worried sick

    The things I read while trying to kill time at work.. lol Not much to be said except that clip of chappelle is priceless, and Soupy is a cutie. I've heard similar stories from plenty of women (and some men.. let's not front guys lol) that I've known in real life. Quit offering advise for most...

    How To Germinate Auto Flowering Seeds? ( Lowryder #2 )

    That's what I keep reading. I have autos going myself. With the first 9 I started them in party cups and just transplanted them into their final pots last night. With the ones that I'm planting now I'm going straight into their final pots.

    producing a pound from 1 plant? possible?

    I've seen 16oz come from one bagseed of an unidentified "kush" strain. It had one 1000w on it for a month of veg and six or six and a half weeks of flower. Another 1000w added to the side for the remaining three weeks or so. In a DWC with lucas (I think it was lucas. Can't remember if that was...

    How To Germinate Auto Flowering Seeds? ( Lowryder #2 )

    I soak mine in a cup of water until the tails start to pop out. Then I sow them.

    Lights For Auto Grows?

    Sounds good Round. Keep us updated on how it's going. 6 less intense lights would have covered my room a lot better. Later I'm going to put two more 1000's in though. Figured I'd just rotate them for now to make sure they get equal amounts of light.

    Lights For Auto Grows?

    Thanks for the advice. I saw pics in the uvb thread where they yellowed like you're saying at first. I think I'm going to start them off farther away and build up to having them where I want them. Don't want to stress the babies because autos have such a short life span. I know how much of an...
