I asked a supply store owner what was the best nutes. He said I'll let you in on a little secret. "They're all the same!" You can use anything and it'll work. It's like any food. People can eat anything and live on it. Hydroponics is a little different in that they get all their nutes...

Looks like Obama did a 180 on his promise to take a "hands off" approach to medical marijuana. What do you think about this article? http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/07/01/MNM91K5HPD.DTL :!:

My second indoor grow attempt. I got this indoor grow going with 2 flood tables.... 1 small(2'x4'), 1 big (8'x4') right next to each other. I got two 1000 watters (Metal halide for now. HPS for later) over the big one and t5 fluorescents over the small. both tables are packed with 6" rockwool...

If I want to put in a subpanel from the main to run about 8-10 1000 watt lights what size of wire should I run from the main and how would I hook it up in the main and subpanel. Is there some rule that you use to determine the size of wire going to the subpanel from the main? Also what's the...

What about a new section for people that want to learn to wire their grow rooms without starting a fire?

Thanks. You're a genius super2200. Thanks spanishfly. sounds like u know ur stuff too.

After I cut the plants down and took the root ball out of the soil can I reuse the soil. Do the roots break down to provide the next batch with more nitrogen? This soil is expensive like $20 a bag and I'd like to use the stuff I still got. Thanks everyone.

I'm a CA resident with a medical mj card and I grew my first crop and have extra seeds I want to get rid of for donations (I'm in a non-profit state of CA) on Craigslist. Is it legal? A ton of ads on craigslist for bud. I was just wondering about seeds coz that one Canadian got 5 years for...

I'm breeding several strains outdoors in the bay area and on one plant EVERY seed I picked was cracked at the usual "crack seam". I'll get the scientific word later. Anyone know why? I'm thinking it might be the seasons are getting wetter and the seeds are sitting in their seed pods getting wet...

Diggz, ur a genius. I know that's the right answer. You want to hear something weird? Right after I was told it needed more sun I went outside the next day and noticed MORE SUN in my garden. The neighbors cut down trees to the southwest giving the plants way more morning light.

thanks for the advice. I planted some durban poison back in august as an experiment and man they grew huge seeds super fast. That's what's confusing me. the DP are 4 months younger than the big ones I planted in March. That's 5 months longer. Beats the **** out of me. Maybe I'm not giving it...

How can I speed up the growth of seeds. I cross polinated 6 females with 2 males and it's taking forever for seeds on 3 of my biggest plants to grow. I planted some other ones as an experiment in august and have way bigger seeds from them than I'm getting from these 3 big plants I planted in...

I'm trying to produce as many seeds as possible. I've had males all around 6 females (females are all different strains). 3 of the females produced lots of seeds but 3 have real small seed pods. :wall: I'm in the Bay Area, CA and it's almost Halloween. Do I just wait? Rain is coming soon and...

I love these threads. I put one up a long time ago as I was researching my next move. Humboldt tradition is strong and limits are high. Bay area is unique. Microclimates unlike anywhere else. San jose is the only town in Santa Clara county not to ban dispensaries and have great limits.. So do...

I think we should ban the term "pot" and "dope" from our vocabulary when talking with anyone who's not our good friends. Now those terms are being used (overused if you ask me) too much in the political scene across the nation, especially now with prop 19 battles raging. I think as long as WE...
