    Best LED's for indoor growing....

    Hi! I grow Ficus indoors as bonsai, and have recently began looking into LED lighting. I wanted to get some good information because all I seem to find is about using LED's with plants that flower. Ficus don't flower, so I don't necessarily need that. I'm looking to spend under $400 for one...

    Has anyone successfully reduced grow tent height...

    Hey all, Just wondering, is there anyone out there who has reduced the height of their grow tent, and has pictures to show? I'm finding tents that are perfect height and width, but are just waaaaay too tall. 76"-78" is too tall, as I've got a ceiling fan in the room where I want the tent, and...

    Grow Tent that isn't 6 feet tall or taller....

    Hey all, I'm trying to find a grow tent that isn't 6 feet tall or taller. All I can find is super tall tents that I just don't need all that height. I'm posting this here because I'm not using them for marijuana, but just indoor plants (bonsai). The length and width seem fine on most of the...

    Why reflective grow tents?

    Hi all, Just curious, but does zipping up a reflective mylar lined grow tent all the way actually serve a purpose? Or are grow tents really just for stealth growing? I'm wondering if zipping the tent up all the way really helps reflect light, or if if even makes a difference whether or not...

    Creating air movement...

    Hi all, I build these "grow boxes" out of PVC and drop cloth or mylar, then close them up top using plexiglass. This creates a great growing environment for my trees, Ficus, because it traps heat and humidity inside the chamber. Problem is, there's no air movement, so I tend to get bug...

    Let's talk fertilizer....

    Hi all, Was at the local nursery today and noticed they sell both fish fertilizer and seaweed fertilizer. They also sell a combination of the two. So it got me thinking, what's the difference between the two? Is one any better than the other? Thanks!

    Quick question about spider mites....

    Hey all, A few months ago I noticed my trees (that I grow indoors) were infested with spider mites. So I took them out of the room they stay in over winter, and moved them all outdoors to be treated. Since that was several months ago, and no plants have been in since, could the mites still be...

    Humid and well ventilated? Indoor growing question....

    Hi everyone, I grow bonsai indoors under T5 lights and have done so for a few years now. I grow tropical plants (Ficus) that love the heat and humidity. Usually what I'll do is I'll build a box out of PVC, then cover it in plastic and add a plexiglass roof: This usually works out pretty...

    Waterproof Mylar

    Hi again, I'm a bonsai grower (as the name suggests) who grows primarily indoors. I've been growing indoors for a few years now with mixed results. The trees I grow are tropical trees, Ficus, that like high heat and humidity. So in order to make them happy I built boxes for them made out of...
