So wow, a 1/10 hp chiller looks to be around $350. Now that's more than I'd like to shell out. But like gr865 I wouldn't let that keep me from doing what needs to be done. My wife has Multiple Sclerosis, that's exactly why I started growing and why I will continue to do so. Actually the cost of...

So after reading everyone's responses and suggestions I've done some looking online. So I'm thinking having a submersible pump in the reservoir plumbed to a multi-port pressure compensating emitter. From the emitter running 1/4" tubes to the Floracaps. Would this work? Also this might be a deal...

Hey folks, Been growing in soil for a while now and I'm seriously considering making the switch to Drain to Waste and I have a ton of questions. First here is my set-up. I have two tents inside a 5' x 6' closet, one tent is 31" x 31" x 84' tall, the second tent is 20" x 36" x 62" tall. The...

This Critical Hog seedling is at 17 days here. I almost pulled the plug on her because of it being a slow starter. Once I saw what was going on with her I decided to wait and see. It appears it sprouted with two tops. Has anyone ever seen this before? It's a first for me but I'm pretty sure it's...

Hey folks, trying to work out my technique for Shatter. I've included a picture of my last run, this is actually my second attempt at it. So I blasted fresh frozen bud into a Pyrex dish, placed the dish into a pan of hot water to boil off much of the butane. Placed the remaining oil into a...

MH, Well thanks for the advice. You are making an assumption on where I plan to grow that is inaccurate, I'm old and wise enough to make the decision on whether or not my location is secure. Yes in most cases an outbuilding is not the best location, but based on my circumstances, how much...

Hey y'all I'm working on setting up a small grow cabinet. I have an old fiberglass ice chest that came off a small shrimp boat, the inside dimensions are 21 1/4" wide x 23" deep x 45 1/4" tall. The chest has a hinged lid with a gasket so it's light tight and virtually air tight. I plan on...

Thanks for the get-backs to my post. Yeah I'm definitely growing in soil to start with, although I'm putting together an areoponics grow box to experiment growing tomatoes with this fall and winter. Thanks for the heads up about the trichomes color, I had no idea, and yes I'm looking for that...

In a couple of weeks I'll be ready for my first grow. My wife has Multiple Sclerosis and it seems reasonable to start growing our own. I plan on growing just enough to take care of her medical needs, so I'm thinking of planting 4 or 5 seeds anticipating that half or more may be male plants. I...

My wife an MS patient, has recently started taking LDN (low dose naltrexone) to treat MS. She has seen great improvements since starting this drug therapy. I know the drug used in a higher dose (50mg) acts as a opiate antagonist. She takes a dose of 3.5mg daily, and as great as this therapy is...
