    White Slime on My Roots and Airstones

    Really old thread, I know, but I am having the same problem, and I don't understand why after reading through this whole thread. I'm even finding this slime on the bottom of stems that have not yet formed roots, and it's killing my cuts (in the smaller unit, see below)...they are rotting from...

    Let's talk inline fans....

    I just wanted to thank everyone who added to this thread. It really helped me make a much better decision. I need a dedicated 6 inch fan for scrubbing, and decided to go with the Vortex S-Line based on the research I did because: A) It should move all the air out of my room about every five...

    Best ponics spray nozzle I have found.....

    Old thread, I know, but I just bought a bunch (60) of the Delavan Raindrop 1/4" RA10 Nozzles and now find myself without the ability to use them (long story). If anybody is interested in purchasing them, I paid $4 each and it took a long time to find them. I also have a bunch of half inch PVC...

    5x5 closet grow using SolarStorm 880

    I would say (this is just a guess based on visual examination of the crystals) that it is the same or slightly higher (probably due to the UVB). I basically found that that the light is the equivalent of a 600W HPS, but a little more powerful. It needs to be a little further from the top of...

    5x5 Closet, Hashberry, with SolarStorm 880

    They seem to be coming along nicely. I am actually going to harvest them any day now (probably this coming weekend). As a testament to the power of this light, I got the SS880 as close as 14 inches from the canopy, and I got light bleaching on some of the tops. I have since moved the light to...

    Finally got some time for an update. These babies finish really fast! I'm gonna start with some photos of the initial set up in the closet. Having some issues with upload.

    So I FINALLY finished the manicuring and curing process, and the final weight of the useable medicine was: 1020 grams, or 2 lbs that were a little bit over (460g each) plus 100g of slightly lower quality medicine. I still have about two entire plants' worth that I plan on turning into extract...

    5x5 closet grow using SolarStorm 880

    Sorry for the lack up updates, been busy. Chopped the ladies this last weekend. Sadly, they did not turn out all that great. Plenty of crystals, but very airy, which I think is due to the temperatures being too high during a pretty critical phase of flowering. I also think that they were...

    5x5 Closet, Hashberry, with SolarStorm 880

    Hi all! I'm starting my second indoor medical grow using the SolarStorm 880 from California Lightworks. I plan to use just this light throughout the entire flowering cycle (if I can, it's stretching the recommended footprint of this light by a little bit, so I may supplement with 600W HPS...

    Not too much excitement to report. I've been slowly cutting back the nutrients in the flower room in expectation that the flowering period will be ending any time now. All of the trichomes are cloudy by this point, but I have yet to see any amber. I recently read that increasing the dark period...

    Well, looks like this harvest is going to be modest at best. I went out of town for Memorial Day Weekend, and just hooked up the drip system and walked out the door, figuring it would be enough to get them through Monday, but I had a bunch of stuff from the nutrients clogging the ends of the...

    Well, I've been really busy, and haven't been posting as frequently as I should. Apologies. The News: One of the panels in the LED lost power (my assumption) to the blue LED's, so I contacted the company about it. Was told last week that they would be shipping a replacement early last week. I...

    Thanks! I'll be starting a new journal with just the LED once this cycle finishes (about 2-3 more weeks). I'll post a link once I start it in my current journal.

    Not too much to report. The deficiency hasn't gotten any worse since last update, which is good. No new problems, at least. Seemed like the plants had depleted the soil of most of the nutrients, so I began giving them Connoisseur, Bud Factor X, H1, F1, Rhino Skin, and Carboload starting this...
