let me know how the flat or semi-gloss white paint works. ive heard conflicting reports of it being superior to reflective material (mylar, foil, etc) Im stuck in the middle

how long did it take from the date you placed the order to delivery? also what region of the US?

Today while shopping for some pesticides, I came across (possibly) one of the best solutions to my problem, PITCHER PLANTS. They grow great in my climate and are pretty cheap. For those of you that aren't familiar with them, pitcher plants are carnivorous plants that lure pests inside their...

I can't believe that the salt idea never crossed my mind lol. Thanks for the suggestion. Any recommended sprays sold in the US, i.e. Lowe's, Wal-mart (lol yeah right), that I could use to spray for other insects? (around the bucket in the 2ft radius)

I have a plant about 6 weeks into veg growing in my yard. I plant on transplanting it into a 5 gallon bucket of good soil, then relocating it to the forest. I have a very secluded spot, so people aren't the problem. It's the bugs - spider mites, caterpillars, and worst of all, SLUGS. I once...

Look on Allied electronics, they list the light temp of the LED

Yes, I'd also be interested in the shortest veg time.

I've just finished my stealth grow box, it's going to be on a top shelf in my closet. Since I live with people who would definitely notice the noise of the exhaust/intake fans, I've come up with a plan on keeping them away from the box. Being in a flood prone area, I have a house that is about...

Looks good, be sure to post when you harvest. No idea how much you will get though.

I've seen successful grows in PC cases, and I was wondering if I could grow 1 plant in a 5 gallon bucket (completely housed, the lid would have the lights affixed). The seeds I have my eye on are the Lowryder Easy Ryder AKA Lowryder #2 x AK47 from Attitude. Says its a short indoor autoflowering...

Forgive me for the noob question, Im familiar with LST, but what is "topping"?

What strain is this? Bagseed or did you order? As for those CFL's if she gets taller put them on their sides flat against the top of your cabinet. If you need some fixtures, Id say get the ones from lowe's or home depot that are basically a socket with a plug outlet on it. You can just plug it...

What are you using for your soil? COuld you give me if possible the brand of mix youre using?

Really? The book that tells me if its okay to grow in September in MY area? Link me to it and I'll buy it, wait for processing, then the shipping, all while if there was a possibility that I could be planting. Great... Everyone else was nice enough to give me advice, but you're the only one to...

They do not have to be dried out, but its wise to slightly 'cook' them to get rid of the toxins. I suggest putting them on a grill or in the stove on low, when they turn slightly wet and kind of sticky, theyre good. They grow abundantly in my area in the winter (amanita muscaria var. formosa)...
