    IF you are new to LED and want help choosing what to buy, POST HERE!

    I decided to order an A51 RW150. I think the coverage should be good next to the XGS190 and still be a significant reduction in heat by taking out the ballast (had to have it in the same closet) and the 400W HPS. Fran, My grow style has shifted and I'm still trying to figure out which is the...

    IF you are new to LED and want help choosing what to buy, POST HERE!

    I have a 40"wide by 36" deep by 7" high space. Currently, I have a 400W HPS beside an area 51 XGS190. It's all working fine except in the hot season it gets too hot in the room. Tops out around 100 but can get even hotter in some areas and stress the plants. Thinking of getting a second Area...

    Plants ALMOST finished, Need to cut some now, What's the best thing to do?

    So, I snipped one small bud so I could get a better look at the trichs without having to move everything around. My loup is too small, but I'd say it's 60/40 cloudy/clear. Definitely will let the rest keep going and conserve what we have left. Thanks for the input!:clap:

    Plants ALMOST finished, Need to cut some now, What's the best thing to do?

    Thanks! I have been checking the trichs with the jeweler's loup I have (not ideal but gives me an idea at least) and the plant in question definitely has some cloudy trichs. Unfortunately, I haven't found any amber ones yet but I'm at least approaching a 50/50 split clear to cloudy, maybe edging...

    Replacing my 8x2' T5HO fixture with one of the XGS-190's from A51. Ordered it, just waiting for it to be filled and shipped. I know he's been backlogged. But it will go straight into my roughly 3.5x3x5 space beside my 400W HPS. I think the two together will provide a nice supply of light without...

    Plants ALMOST finished, Need to cut some now, What's the best thing to do?

    So, I grow just to supply my wife and I with medicine and had a couple bad rounds last year, so we're running out of medicine now and have three plants that are 1-2 weeks from being at their peak harvesting time. Well, one looks like it might have over a week, one maybe a week, and one that's...

    how long can you keep a mother plant?

    Use air pots or smart pots and it will help extend how long you can keep it in the same pot if you're in soil.

    Help with 1 month perpetual grow.

    Yeah, I do 2-3 per month using just one 3x3ft space, only Autos, soil, and a 400w HPS plus 6x2ft T5 and several Crees for side lighting. You have a TON of space and lighting unless you want to make trees, but it seems easier to do a greater number of smaller plants than fewer giant ones. Also...

    When to stop burping my mason jars?

    Can you please explain the reason for you feeling this way? I get that it simplifies the process by helping to control humidity, but why is that a negative? Is there an argument for less control? I'm trying to get better at curing and understand it better, so I don't understand why keeping...

    Where to find supplies to make a bag for making dry ice hash?

    I got a silk screen frame at Michael's crafts and used dry ice. It got me 1 gram of kief for quite a bit of shake, so I wasn't too happy with it. Hoping bubble bags will work better.

    Where to find supplies to make a bag for making dry ice hash?

    I've seen a lot of recommendations for where to buy bubble bags online, but is there somewhere that sells the supplies I'd need that I could buy it today? I live in a major city in the US, so any nationwide chain or type of store would be helpful. Thanks!

    What are NEW STRAINS worth trying to grow?

    Very nice list! I'd love to hear more about them. Chocolope, although not "new", is one I really want to try. I've read it's easy to grow and it was my favorite in terms of high and flavor when I tried it in Amsterdam last year. Who else has suggestions?

    Harvest Time: A Tutorial

    I agree that over-drying is a bummer, but if you leave too much moisture then don't open the jar for a week or two (like if you have several jars and are only using one), you might open a jar to find mold all over your bud, which sucks. The last thing you want is to risk ruining all your bud...

    I'm a bit confused about drying

    Most people will say you still want them to have some moisture in them when you go to put them in the jars. If the stems are snapping, they are VERY dry. Stems are more likely to just bend if they have any moisture since the stems are so strong. They also say that slowly removing the moisture by...

    I germinated these Auto AK47 plants from lowlife (thru the attitude) 9 weeks ago. I actually had three plants. These were supposed to be feminized seeds but one turned out completely male. As you can see, one of these turned out good and one of them turned out short and weird looking. I wish I...
