    How to get vegetable garden started

    How different is vegetable gardening compared to how we grow our medicine? What should the setup be like outdoors. Do I just go out and buy miracle grow. What nutes do I need if any. Should they be in pots or raised beds. It's mostly for my mother so she's probably going to end up buying all...

    Fan use during lights off

    Right now I'm in 12/12 and running an exhaust fan (w/o filter) and a tall ocilating fan on low setting. I use the ocilating fan to cool the hps bulb during the day and to recreate a natural breeze but do I need that at night. I understand the ocilating fan inside the tent will help prevent...

    Surprised by how much they eat and drink

    First run with coco and I already made the mistake of under watering and under feeding them in solo cups. By the 3rd week they would drink everything in the solo cup overnight and the next day the top of the coco was bone dry and the cups light. My mistake was thinking I can follow a set...

    Coco runoff was 7.1 so I flushed it a couple times with ph 5.8 nutrient solution (1/4 strength bloom w/ full calmag) same as I been feeding it this past week. Only brought it down to 6.8 Maybe I should have flushed it with just plain water but I didn't want to flush all the nutes out just...

    Popped four seeds, one had a long tap root while the other three just barely popped. The long tap root seed and one other broke the surface the first day with the shell stuck to them.

    Storing seeds question

    My seeds came in an amber vile. What's the best way to store them? Do I keep them in the vile and pack them in rice (don't have silica packs) or do I take them out of the vile and store them in rice in the fridge? Also I heard you can do it with powdered milk and a paper bag. Just not sure if...

    Why I'm not using tea with great white

    I wanted to brew molasses with Great white to make a tea. What turned me off it is the fact that the tea only stays good a couple days. Even if I only brew a gallon I would still have a lot left over and it would just go bad. It's ok for people who use it all in one shot but for me I'll still...

    60 ppm tap with coco

    My tap water is about 60 ppm. I heard the water has to be 250 ppm before putting in nutes. To get 250 ppm before adding nutes do I have to add calmag until I reach 250? When I used quarter strength calmag and quarter strength nutes my water came out 300 ppm. To get 250 ppm with just calmag I...
