hey everyone... how are you all doing??

thought i would stop by and explain what was up... first off let me say how sorry i am and how bad i feel for just dropping off of things.. i had a rough spot in my life and needed a break from everything... then things changed for the better.. and i just ended up getting too busy to have time for much of anything.. new job.. opening a business myself.. girl friend moving in.. life in general just caught up to me.. i am sorry that i have not been around to offer advice...

at this time i cant promise i will be around much to help out.. even finding time to write this up was pain in the ass... but i wanted to let you all know i am fine and things are going quite well...

i thank all those who are continuing in my behalf on guiding those in need... hopefully soon life can slow down enough for me and ill make a triumphant return... until then good luck and good growing to all of you.. may your gardens be green and your dreams stay high!!

Goose, my man. Checkin in from the west coast my beother. Phase 2 went beautifully, and nettd just enough scratch to get the fam out here. Again, I thank you for all the support and guidance! You played no small role in ensuring that I had 2 nice chops. Anyway, got the girls started here, where things are nearly as oppressive as the 'ol south (thank the good lord). Holla back whenev you can. If you are ever gonna be in the NW, I gotta king size bed & spare room with your name on it.

My best to you & the new job, gf cohabitation, etc. Holla back sometime!

hey ive been reading your thread on supercropping and its unbelievebly helpful!! i just have a question though. im doing my first grow and i just bought a 4x8 secret jardin hut and im runnin 2 1000 watt hps lights. i loaded it up with 24 xj13 in 3 gallon pots. my intents are to super crop but im worried about not having enough room. do you think i possibly may have an over crowded room eventually?

What brand and Spectrum do you guys suggest for best flowering results? I have a HTG 1,000 6 " cooled hood that has mh/hps bulbs. Are they cheap bulbs or does it not matter. I would assume some have to be much better then others. Whats the secret?

jus a quick questions i got 2 plants 5 weeks in veg i want to keep them as the mother plant what do you think is best to take clones then make them mothers or stick with these ones from seed. and will 2- 125 cfl be enough light to keep them in veg a long time
and how soon should i take the cuttings the man in the hydro store said 3 month if its from seed do you think thats correct

Hello SimSam420, yes I am a bit of a new booty at this forum, and growing, working on my 9th cycle so I know I'm just scratching the surface, anyhow here is my predicament, I grow in an outdoor greenhouse that has fans, air, whatnot, I grow in 5 gl. Plant Warrior pot ( the kind with the inverted cone for air circ. filled with pure coco ( botanicare ). I am at week 6 of a very nice bunch of Banana kush flowering, so I am flushing as I do every two weeks, and I see all this movement in the water as I flood the pot with water, NEMATOIDS, Bigtime, thriving, on my roots? don't have aphids, so how much damage can these little suckers do in the next 3 weeks, what kind of un-chemical methods do you know of. Sure apprieate the time.

Simpsonsampson420, I noticed that you refer to Flouros by their incandescent light equivalent. Isn't this irrelevant? I always understood that light sources should be compared by their actual light output or their actual current draw. A 600 watt hid puts out 70,000+ lumens while 600 watts of flouro would put out 55,000 and 600 watts of incandescent light would be less than 10,000 lumens, most of it in the wrong spectrums to be useful.
