    Who's using Grostar reflectors?

    Just hoping to hear some feedback from anybody using the Grostar reflectors. I've seen a few grows on youtube that were using them and the plants growing underneath them looked absolutely awesome. While any parabolic style reflector is large, they purportedly disperse light evenly, and without...

    Couple new strains........blueberry diesel and grandaddy blueberry!!!

    These are a couple new strains which have become recently added to the mix, but I don't know much about them other than that the Blueberry Diesel, Grandaddy Blueberry are firing off in veg. Purple Diesel is also doing well, but I only have one clone to assess things on. For those who've grown...

    Expert advice- Best, 1 part GROW nutrient for HYDRO

    I've been using Dutch Master's Gold 2 part nutrient for most of the last year, but switched over to GH's Flora Nova Grow for the last 2-3 months. I'm using rapid rooters and 6" rockwool blocks. These are my observations: -Dutch Master's Gold line 2 part nutrient requires a lot of ml's...

    So who else is stoked about the new season starting next Sunday? I only watch a handful of tv shows, but this is one of my top favorites. I hate tweekers, but this show rocks! I can't wait to see what happens...

    http://cbs5.com/investigates/pge.smart.meters.2.1555294.html This one has a lot of feedback in the comments portion I found really disturbing. http://energyandenvironmentblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2010/03/anti-smart-meter-crowd-just-sa.html The energy companies have the upper hand, and...

    Vertizontal Reflector Question

    I've been looking at possibly changing the arrangement of my flowering setup, and have been toying with the idea of going with vertizontal reflectors. I'm currently using 2, 1000w HPS on an LR5 light rail. The thing is, I'm currently using Super Sun2 reflectors with the reflective blankets...

    Bubblegum vs. Bubba Kush vs. Blackberry Kush vs. Mr. Nice

    I've got some new strains I'm working with but only know the growing habits, yields, and highs of a couple of em- bubblegum and blackberry kush respectively. I would like to continue checking out new things from time to time, but I'd really like to narrow things down a little and decide on one...

    Sun Pulse DIGITAL Lamps

    They've been in Maximum Yield and Urban Garden advertising the last several months, and they're specifically made for digital ballasts because of the frequency they operate on, but even in my area they aren't many people I personally know that have any experience to share from grows with them...

    Why stop fulvic and humic supplementation?

    First off, I use Dutch Master Gold line nutrients, but since I wasn't able to get a clear answer from them I called General Hydroponics today to ask them why they don't recommend using Diamond Nectar past the transition stage going into flower. What they told me was that the fulvic/humic acids...

    Who's battling root aphids?!

    I've managed to stomp most of them out, but some still remain. All the ones I gave the dunk of death to are gone, but some are now in the rockwool slabs of flowering plants. How the fuck am I gonna get rid of them? The dunk I gave them was a 2% solution of Take Down in water, but while it was...

    Sons of Anarchy!!

    I'm not a huge tv watcher, but there are a handful of shows I'll watch. Initially, what got me started watching this show was the fact it was the only "motorcycle oriented" tv show on the air. After seeing the previews for it, I had my doubts it would last at all. Turns out, I ended up hooked...

    Hydro Nutrient Question/Comparo

    I've been using Dutch Master's Gold Line of hydroponic nutrients, and have seen great results with certain genetics. Bubblegum and Sour Diesel did well with them, but the Black Kush strain just didn't put out. I'm wondering if others have experienced the same sort of thing, or if I'd be better...

    San Fran Hydro Expo

    I only took a few pics, because it was hard to stay focused with so much going on, but here ya go. I showed up about 1:20, and a lot of free samples were already gone. Dutch Master gave a shitload of free samples out, so big props to them. Also, House and Garden had a really nice booth setup...

    Pistil TIPS browning at 3 weeks flowering?

    I searched Google and this forum for an answer, but didn't find a definitive one. I noticed that just the TIPS of some of the plants' pistils are turning brown, and they're only 3+ weeks into flower. They've got a pretty cozy environment most of the time, but I have treated the resevoir...

    Doing a Sulphur Burn

    I noticed an extremely small amount of powdery mildew on the bottom leaves of some of my plants. I chopped all of those off, and hoped for the best. I really am surprised how it got there in the first place because my humidity rarely even gets as high as 60%, and the exhaust is constantly...

    What strains are you growing?

    For those that already have journals going, I suppose it's a bit redundant, but I was just curious what strains everybody's got growing? It'd also be cool to hear how you came up with the particular strain(s) you have now, and the thought process in your decision to grow which type(s). I...

    The HOG-

    So I've been all over the seedbanks looking at all the different strains out there, but it's been a while since I've seen The HOG or Hog's Breath around locally. It's a great smoke, nice and sweet tasting, tight nugs, but have never seen the plant itself under typical indoor growing conditions...

    Portable AC Unit Comparison

    I've been doing some research about portable AC units, and found a few that look good, but have never used one. I've always used either a window unit or a central unit. Unfortunately, even though I have central AC, I won't be using it for that. For a room running 2 600HPS, and 1 600MH that...

    Wanna see somethin' funny?? Check this out!

    Ok, this happened a while back, and I posted about it on another board, but I realized that THIS forum is the perfect place to share this story. Check it out. So I'm walking my dogs along the trails by my house and, as I'm doing so one of them stops to whiz or whatever and I look down and...

    Purple strains- what's the big deal?

    I may not have been around this site all that long, but what's up with certain people's unfounded, jaw-dropping, drooling fascination with buds just because they might be a little purple??? I've grown several strains in my 10 years of experience, and I have yet to be impressed by ANY so called...
