    Spider mites. How do they get in????

    With my first crop, I had a spider mite infestation. I decontaminated the room with bleach, peroxide, and a bug fogger. Everthing seemed to be great. I am just days from harvest and I noticed mites. How the hell do those little bastards get in. My room is sealed fairly well. The intake air...

    Close or no?

    This is my first outdoor grow. It is Lemon G and what I have read is 70 days to flower completely. One of my major problems is that I was super busy with work, so I didn't pay much attention to when she began to flower. My other major issue is that I still have not figured out how to read the...

    Wind took out one of my girls!

    Some gusty wind took out one of my girls. Snapped her off right at the base. I know that the flower is no where near ready. Just curious if it is good for anything at its current point of progression?

    Yield from COB's

    I just finished my first grow ever (under any lighting). I think I experience just about every issue one can encounter and made just about every mistake as well. Needless to say, my yield was disappointing to say the least. I only got 2 oz off from one plant and 2.5 oz off another. I had to...

    Is this of any concern?

    I did some searching and could not figure out what this is. What are the dark spots/blotches and do I need to be concerned?

    First Grow Woes

    I just completed my first grow of 4 plants, during which time I got the honor of learning about both spider mites and powdery mildew. Two of the plants were salvageable. The other two were too far gone. So my questions: What is the best way to dispose of an entire plant? What is the best...

    How close to harvest?

    This is my first ever grow. I need some help determining if these are around the 2 weeks until harvest mark. I am starting to see some browning and curling on the pistils. I don't have a magnifier yet to look at the trichomes. I am curious if it is time to start the flush. Strains are...

    Veg time vs. yeild

    All things being equal, which they never are, but lets assume that they are for the sake of argument. Is yield in direct proportion for veg time? For instance will a plant that veg's for 3 months yield double to that of a plant that veg's for 1.5 months?

    CXB3590's, still the ticket?

    It has been 4 or 5 months since I built my first lights for veg. Before I order some more for flower, I am curious if the CXB3590's are still the hot item? Given the speed at which technology changes, I figure I had better verify. If I remember correctly, 3000K is the desired temperature for...

    Where to start?

    I am about to partake in my very first grow ever. There are some aspects that I need help figuring out a good place to start from. I realize that there are probably going to be thousands of variables to take in to account, but I need a baseline to get going and have no clue what that baseline...

    Finished my veg lights

    I finally finished up building my veg lights. They turned out extremely well. The only thing I might improve on at some point is to tidy up the wire management.

    Air intake

    I have built a grow room. Attached you will find the current layout. The room is segregated to two smaller rooms, each measuring 8' X 6' 8". Both rooms are attached to an uninsulated, detached garage. Also, both rooms are currently set up to operate completely independent of one another. As...

    Fliwering lights... Do they need a dimmer?

    Do lights for flowering need to be dimmed ever? I am wiring up the electrical in my flower room and I am wondering if I should accommodate for dimmers to dim the COBs or not.

    Grow bench, how tall?

    I am going to build a bench to veg on. The bench will be 8' wide by 3' deep. The surface will have a slight slope from back to front to drain water from soil pots. Water will be collecting in some sort of gutter system. The ceilings are 9' tall. I'm going to use LED lighting. How tall should...

    Grow vegetables too?

    Is it ok to grow anything next to marijuana? Like Jalapenos or other hot peppers? Or will it cause issues? It seems to me that if I already am burning the electricity, it would be nice to keep the vegetable garden going in the winter.

    Sq. Ft. per plant?

    I know there are numerous factors that could influence the answer...but here is the question anyway... In an ideal world, growing in large pots with soil, standard grow (not SoG), is there a general rule as to how many square feet of horizontal space a single plant needs to grow?

    COB LED for veg?

    I have read numerous pages on DIY COB LED's. Nearly everything seems to only pertain to flowering. Would a COB setup be an ideal choice for the vegging process as well? I have a 6.5' x 8' room, of which 4' x 8' is usable for veg. Do I need to illuminate the entire room, or just the usable...

    Grow room space usage

    First post here. Great site. I just built a grow room, and I am unsure as to how best to use my space. I have never grown before, so I have no clue as to what could work. The overall room is 16'5" x 6'7" and is split into two separate rooms, one for veg and one for flower. Both rooms...
