    what's the average yield from a 9x9 space vs 18x18 space?

    Space doesn't matter as much as lighting. Assuming you have enough lighting to do it, roughly 4X as much, but really it depends on the lighting and reflection. If you had a 9x9 room with mylar on the walls more light would reflect off the walls to help the plants more. Where if you had a 18x18...

    Air pump and stone question hydro noob

    How many LPM are your pumps? And how many LPM's are you feeding to each bucket? If the pump is 7.5 LPM and you split it between 2 buckets its likely not enough air bubbles for it. More air for the plants is almost always better. I run about 22.5 LPM to each 15 gallon bucket and in the future I...

    weed that smells and taste like a campfire

    Its usually do to improper (too short or too long) drying. I had the same issue this past grow. Bud that I've grown quite a few times just turned out pretty bad due to me not being able to be around at the right times to cut/hang/dry/bag/jar at the proper times. Anytime it's dried too fast or...

    Best way to start seeds. Not new grower, just don't have luck with seeds

    The clones I have are Pineapple Express. I want to have at least 1 other kind of bud. I like variety. I have a Skunk that popped and hopefully will pop up through soon. I'll pick another bean and get it going.

    Best way to start seeds. Not new grower, just don't have luck with seeds

    Nah, it's not the seeds I wouldn't think. I've gotten them all recently from Attitude and Herbie's. I just haven't had great success with seeds. Once they are a plant and actually growing I'm all good, for some reason getting the seeds to go has been my main issue. No idea why. I've tried to...

    Weighed out my first harvest

    Not sure what you're talking about. You likely burned it. It's easy to burn. You have to do it mad low. I use a crockpot on "warm". Mine has high, low, and "warm". I used low the first time and even that was too high and burned it. Use very low heat and let it cook for 12 or more hours. I love...

    Best way to start seeds. Not new grower, just don't have luck with seeds

    Alright, so I can grow the shit out of plants, but for some reason I can't get a good rate with seeds. I'm tired of wasting good genetics trying to get them to go. I've tried putting them in a glass of water until I see the tail, then plant them. I've tried rockwool PH'ed, soil and even those...

    Being poor sucks when you have kids.

    I never PH my water in soil. That's the point of soil is it acts as a buffer. I suppose if I had issues from watering I may start, but I never have any issues with my water here.

    Pineapple Express, Special Kush #1, Skunk, and C99 1000W XXXL Hood Soil/DWC

    Quick Update with a few pics. We're at Day 30 of flower. They're looking great. So frosty. Seems that Special Kush #1 was a good choice. I only bought them because they were really cheap, it's a really beautiful plant though with crystals EVERYWHERE. First pic is the Pineapple Express, 2nd is...

    Pineapple Express, Special Kush #1, Skunk, and C99 1000W XXXL Hood Soil/DWC

    I don't top anything in flower. If I need more space I'll pinch the stem and bend it over. I have plenty of space above though, so that's not an issue. The C99 isn't actually an issue. My clones in the DWC and the mother plants are both taller than the C99 and the 2 skunk plants because those 3...

    Pineapple Express, Special Kush #1, Skunk, and C99 1000W XXXL Hood Soil/DWC

    Nice. I took 2 clones of the PE the other day. IT's about 3 1/2 weeks into flower, but it should be alright. They are looking awesome though. So frosty. I haven't grown any of theses before. The Special Kush is a very pleasant surprise as well. The buds are already close to a foot tall. I've...

    Pineapple Express, Special Kush #1, Skunk, and C99 1000W XXXL Hood Soil/DWC

    Here's a quick picture of my ladies. This picture is day 21 after switching to 12/12. I have a mother Pineapple Express that I took 5 clones from, which are in DWC, and the Special Kush 1 mother I took 3 clones in DWC. Also had 2 SleestackXSkunk and 1 C99 plant in flower. This picture is day 21...

    Growing weed during ZOMBIE apocypse

    I completely disagree with your logic of not being high though. I'd want to be high for several reasons, some of them have been listed. I"m more calm, and it keeps me calmer longer. I'm not a lethargic stoner, so I'm not that worried about it. Next, many people smoke weed and then work out, or...

    Sealed ball jars in the refrigeator?

    They are Boveda Humidipaks. The 62% are for cannabis. I haven't used them yet, but I'm ordering some withing the next day or two and will let you know how they work if you'd like. They're supposed to get the humidity right at 62% and make little adjustments to keep it there. So it can take...
