    Maximum drying temp of test nugs?

    I'm using a food dehydrator to get some nugs ready for tonight, want them done within 3 hours. The temp range on the dehydrator goes from 35°C to 71°C, so far I did 3 hours on a minimum setting, but it would take a day or two though, and all I have is 3 hours. This is what I've found on the...

    Nutes last 2 weeks?

    Thanks for the link! Well, if I were in your position I would side with flushing the plants as well. It does reduce the overall Nitrogen level within the plant and that I've read a few times speeds up the drying and curing process. And I do not argue the fact that it makes bud smoother, makes...

    Nutes last 2 weeks?

    Interesting. This definitely got my attention and I'm thinking about trying it out. However, I am a little concerned about pumping them full of nutes last weeks for only one reason, a few years ago I've read that overfeeding the plants last weeks of their maturation can stress them and cause...

    Nutes last 2 weeks?

    Exactly mo841 - even if you cut out the nutes and flush out the soil, the buds still continue growing and so they use up the nutrients stored within the foliage - same synthetic nutrients you've been feeding the plant it's entire life, flushing really doesn't make sense in that perspective. What...

    Nutes last 2 weeks?

    Heyy, Week 7. Soil grow, chemical fertilizer. When I first started off with every grow I tried various different flushing techniques. They all proved to be not worth the hassle. And so with every passing harvest I flushed less and less, until I stopped flushing altogether. The bud still tasted...

    Lights on throughout 2 dark cycles

    Big thanks to the both of You for responses. I got a reply on another forum yesterday and the guy said that I'll be okay, but in case I'm still worried and just want to make sure - he suggested reducing the light to 10 hours a day for the next 3 days to re-balance any hormonal/protein...

    Lights on throughout 2 dark cycles

    Hi, Came into my grow room 2 days ago, one bulb was off for the timer had jumped 13hrs in front, so I suppose that one bulb was on throughout the dark cycle. Fixed the time - but the idiot I am, didn't check if the cycles on the timer didn't mess up as well... leaving grow room before lights...

    Ventilation during the night

    I see. Thanks for the quick feedback! Sure thing. Will keep track of humidity to see just how often I need to turn exhaust on to keep it down. Very relieved this is not a problem for them, thanks a lot!

    Ventilation during the night

    Hi, I'm running 4x400W HPS bulbs vertically, just started flowering. During vegging I didn't have a problem with keeping my exhaust fan on during the 6 hours of darkness. I have an electric heater set up right under the intake ducts, and the temperatures always stayed at a perfect range. I also...
