Thank you for the help. Did a couple harvests. I am loving LED..

I just ordered one of the Advanced Platinum series DS200 from Amazon. 300w for $369. I tried to stay away from the cheapest lights in the shopping list. So much opinion out there on different things. I could have got a 500w Apollo with 5w LEDs for about the same price, but it didn't seem...

I grow in a 6' x 3' by 7' cabinet in a shed outside. I have a 600w HPS with digital ballast. 6" inline fan drawing air through the vented hood to cool the bulb. Run from 4pm to 4am currently. Starting to see temps in the 90's for highs at the moment. Will change timer as it warms. Rather...

I am going to attempt a 30 plant SOG grow in 5in square pots with a 600w HPS. The idea of SOG is lots of short, single cola plants, with minimum veg time, and an equal canopy height to make maximum use of the light available, rather than trying to get light down to the lower buds on tall...

I built a drying box out of an old ice chest. Drilled holes all across the bottom, covered it with a wire mesh to keep bugs out, and then mounted a small fan on the outside of the box to draw air through it. Seems to help some, but even in 100% humidity it takes a LONG time to get the buds dry...

I spray all my new plants as they come in the room, and use hot shot strips also. But I would like to use something that would be a little less chemically active, and maybe mask the odor some. Rosemary would work. Have never seen garlic growing, so not sure how it grows..

Exactly! I was considering growing it in a smaller pot in the flower room. How much do you grow (garlic) in your room? I have a 7' x 5' x 8' tall room I flower in.

I'm trying using the freezer to draw out the moisture, "Freeze Dry" if you will. I put the jar in the freezer for 6 hours, pull them out, dump the bud into a paper grocery bag, and turn the now frozen jar upside down to drain any moisture out. Will keep you posted. My buds hung for 5 days...

I have read on other gardening websites that you can plant garlic next to peppers and it will repel "red" spider mites from your peppers.. So to all you horticulturists, why wouldn't placing a garlic plant in your grow area repel the little bastards for our crops as well? And, as an added...

I don't have a huge yield on these plants, they each made maybe 3/4 of a quart mason jar. I tossed the jars in the freezer this morning. I hope that will draw some of the water out, and then I will toss them in a paper bag for a couple hours and see how that works.

I grow in an outbuilding that is not heated or sealed. I chopped and hung 2 plants last week, and the buds no longer feel wet or sticky to the touch, however they do not feel as "crisp" as the stuff I harvested in the summer and hung for 3 days from wet to dry. So today I trimmed and jarred...

I read somewhere that if you slice a potato and lay it on top of the soil, the larvae with go to it, which then you can dispose of the potato easily.. Have no proof it works. Just information, or misinformation as the case may be..

Use the "blue 6K" bulbs for vegging, and the "red 2.7K" bulbs for flower.

That's exactly what shake is. As the sugar leaves dry, they can become brittle and break off in the bag. Some guys are vaping shake and trim instead of wasting the bud..

Looks fine to me. I noticed that if I overwatered when I was under t5 it would cause that. Frankly, I would pinch all the lower growth off that is below the level of the pot. T5 doesn't penetrate very much foliage. How close is your light to the plant? I would keep mine about 12 inches...

I had a similar experience with SOS. Fast service, extremely discrete shipping, and quality seeds with great promos.

I have a local nursery going out of business. All FoxFarms stuff is 50% off. I was considering buying the 3 bottles but I have some General Hydro Maxigrow and Maxibloom I have been using and am happy with. I noticed the concentrations on the FoxFarms stuff are a little higher (the numbers on...

I have grown it before. It is VERY tasty stuff. Pleasure to smoke. I grew it first under florescent, so I didn't get a whole lot of yield and very small buds, but I now have it under a 600w HPS, and it is growing MUCH faster. I have only had it under the flower for less than a week and it's...

The blue (6700k) spectrum keeps them growing, while the red (2700K) do the flowering. Mix in a UV bulb and it helps the resin production..

I am 0 for MANY using rockwool. I almost think you can't use it in a dome or it absorbs every bit of water around. Using rapid rooters, I am at about 99% success. And if after 7 days there's no roots, just wait longer. ;) Some root quickly, and some take as much as 14 days.
