    My girls stopped drinking!

    So last week I tried including a bit o powdered hydro nutrients into my tank. A few days later I noticed a film developing on the top of the water. I dumped the water and went back to my normal botanicare nutes. Since the film developed there has been a significant drop in water consumption...

    Curing in my bloom box?

    I am about to harvest my first grow and I was wondering if there is any reason I can't cure/dry inside my bloom box. The box itself has an inline fan and carbon filter mounted to the top with a T5 light below it. I would make a small cardboard box with wires running inside to hand the buds from...

    Mother Flowering under 19hrs of light?

    I'm still fairly newb so I can be completely wrong in what I am seeing. I have a mother plant a friend cloned for me. It's currently under 19hrs hours of light under a couple CFL's. Perhaps this is some new growth but it looks a bit like early signs of flowering. Sorry for the pics, all I had...

    Color temp and bottom lighting

    Two quick questions.. I've been searching all over but not had much luck, what is the color temperature of the aerogarden bulbs? And in my bloom box I have a 4ft t5 light.. is there any advantage to mount a light on the floor pointed up in a scrog or should I only use the t5? Thanks!

    Exhaust Fan Question

I'll likely be making the DIY zen filter but an wonder about the fan. I know the vortex inline is the best way to go but it's $$$ so I was thinking...

    Rate my grow cabinet design

    I posted this in grow room section but didn't get much feedback so thought I'd try the newb area. So here's my idea. I am using the aero graden bases because I have 3 of them and can easily cycle them through. I figure I can take some clones and root them in the 3rd unit under the regular...

    Grow Cabinet Mockup.. feedback requested

    So here's my idea. I am using the aero graden bases because I have 3 of them and can easily cycle them through. I figure I can take some clones and root them in the 3rd unit under the regular aerogarden light in the 3rd base while the 1st 2 bases veg/bloom. Using T-5s so I don't have to worry...

    HPS/MH vs T5 .. For veg thru bloom

    So I'm a total newb about ready to build a grow cabinet. Likely looking at something approx 2x4x4.. I've been searching but haven't yet found many definitive comparisons between HPS/MH and T5 lights. I hear the best setup is the HPS/MH and switch the bulbs for grow & bloom but I am concerned...
