    New Farmer's Market/Collective in Hemet - 12/10/2010 - Anyone else heading out there?

    Today is the first day. Sweet farm. Kinda slow, but the meds are great and there's good prices. They may be bbq'ing next week. Might head out again to chill next week too.

    Flood & Drain - Do you need air stones in the res.

    In a table setup I agree, no stone is necessary, as you have aeration as it leaves the nozzle in the table, and more as it drops back into the reservoir. But if you ebb-flow with a bucket system I would recommend that you aerate that because I do see a difference in PH stability and settling...

    Help Clone problem

    There's usually some limp around day 2-3, but they recover quickly. Keep your humidity high, spray them at least once a day with RO Water, and trim your fanleaves back (I cut each leaf finger in half) so you have less water loss from the clippings.

    !!!HELP!!! Water inside my air cooled hoods....+ REP FOR HELP

    LOL, ok! That would certainly affect the decision. In that case, a delayed start of the fan should eliminate that problem. As to the exact delay, you'd have to test it out. Let us know!

    Are you opposed to keeping the cent fan on 24/7?

    period of darkness before harvesting?

    I can tell you that it hasn't affected my weight. I did quadrants awhile back to test the darkness idea, where I did 0 days dark, 1 2 3, (I did a post awhile back that covered my experiment, so I'd have to refer to that), but the end result was that there was no effect on weight. I wasn't...

    26 clones and a 600 watter

    Why would you have him hack the plants when it's 3 weeks into bloom?? In my experience, major pruning stunts the bud development. I've done major pruning on OG Bubba and White Rhino in week 3 and 4 and every time it's minimized weight. I would assume every strain has similar issues. (finicky...

    !!!HELP!!! Water inside my air cooled hoods....+ REP FOR HELP

    The easiest solution is to keep the fan on 24/7. It doesn't cost that much more per day to keep it on, as cent fans are fairly energy efficient.

    Spidermites!!

    If running CO2, during dark cycle crank CO2 to 5000ppm for an hour. WARNING: MAKE SURE THIS IS ONLY DONE IN A SEALED ROOM, and that the area around the sealed room is VENTILATED appropriately. You will kill yourself if you walk into a 5000ppm room. Remember that if you have mites, eggs are 3...

    Co2???!!!! Bs!!!

    For the sealed rooms I run CO2 during lights on @ 1500ppm. 20lbs tanks typically last 1 month. I have the walls sealed to the concrete slabs so it is as close to air tight as I can get them. Edit: The difference between CO2 and non-CO2, running same wattage and nute schedule and environment...

    The Official House and Garden Thread

    I use a modified version of the nute calculator that I modified for my grows. I also use 3ml/gallon cal/mag.

    Inline Fan

    I've found that my horizontal mounted fans go out faster. I'm assuming it's more stress on the bearings to run horizontal. I run 2 x 8" and 1x6" can fans. Edit: Are you restricting the inflow of your fan at all? (i.e. 8" can fan stepped down to 6" at the intake)

    New Farmer's Market/Collective in Hemet - 12/10/2010 - Anyone else heading out there?

    There's a new farmer's market/collective opening up December 10th on a farm in Hemet. (Riverside / Inland Empire) - California Regional Health Network I plan on checking it out, supposedly if you bring a couple friends you get a free joint. There's a smoke pit for people with cards. So if...

    Yield Potential

    Impossible to guess yield because there are so many variables. The biggest one being strain. Ask anyone that grows OG Bubba if it's a producer.. you'll probably hear 1 oz if you got your shit dialed in. 1/2 oz if you don't per plant.
