    Buds for Less - CFL BOOK

    As a member of the group that this book seems to serve, I feel that I have been misled by marketing. For what it is, it is absolutely great, I enjoyed reading it and I am glad I bought it. As picture book/grow journal it is lovely. I love all of the cool quotes and little weed trivia all...

    Is this a dumb idea?

    Ok, here's the plan. 1 buy some auto flowering seeds 2 germinate seeds 3 plant seeds in small cups 4 transfer plants to 3 liter soda bottles with tops cut off 5 when they show gender, leave the males in with the females 6 harvest a bunch of seeds and some usable smoke/hash 7 repeat...

    wiring help HPS!!!!!!!

    no drama, is there a downside to these kind of lights? do the ballasts burn out quicker because they are at the light? they are a good deal cheaper than grow lights. when splicing the wires (if that is what it is even called) do you use those twisty things or just twist the wires together...

    Best book for small home grows?

    forgot to say thanks. Thank you Gamberro et al. i think i'll just go with the 360 buck system from StealthHydro. It comes with a 400 watt light that would probably cost a couple hundred anyway. and yes, profit is not the motive. around my way, there just isn't a market for good herb, folks...

    Best book for small home grows?

    FLsucks, That would be a great idea. Too bad I don't know anybody who eats mushies besides me. Not really a market for it around my way, but i don't get out much, so what do i know. i just came into some dough, first i'm gonna ask dave1i for some specifics on his 4oz min setup (i think I'd...

    Best book for small home grows?

    OK, forgive my ignorance. The link above is a 6 plant Hydro system with an included 400 watt Hps. So with a system like this, could i use cfls for side lighting in a 2X2X5 ft cabinet? If so, it seems i'd only have to cut some ventilation holes and install a couple fans, no? Basically, I'm...

    thanks Floridasucks, do you own this book, and does it have information on the above topics? Also, is this a "regular" book that I could find at a bookstore?

    Best book for small home grows?

    I was looking to get a book on growing that had more info useful to somebody doing a wardrobe or closet grow. Specifically, I would like to know about LST, hydro setups, soil and nutrients, proper containers, lighting, exhaust etc. for "micro" grows. Any suggestions?

    what's burning my seedlings

    Gotta get a real thermometer, but the temp according to my clock radio is about 76F after I put the fan in...so it was probably considerably hotter before. I was checking out your grow--looks great. I also learned that the "burning" was looking at is actually a purple color that is natural...

    what's burning my seedlings

    Thanks VI et al. I've never seen worm castings before, I hope this nearby shop has them. The nutes are apparently sold within 1000 feet of my doorstep. I didn't look at nutes when I was there but the website says they sell'em. They were out of the shultz last I checked (that was what the guy...

    what's burning my seedlings

    thanks, so I'm clear that mix would be 2/3 soil and 1/3 perlite OR verm? No nutes. From what I've read I thought I wouldn't need them for a while. I haven't even bought any yet. Stupid question, would a hydro shop have bud specific nutes for soil or just hydro setups?? and if they have'em...

    what's burning my seedlings

    these 4 are still in styrofoam cups. I flushed them all really well (I think). I hate to waste money (I'm broke). Could I just flush this mg soil I already have a few times before transplanting to the big pots? I also have a ton of vermiculite and perlite I'm using in a shroom grow (simple...

    what's burning my seedlings

    Ok, moved the lights back down. What can I do about the soil? Do I just let them grow out of it? Should I scrap the lot and start over?

    what's burning my seedlings

    I germinated 4 super skunk seeds one week ago. I now have the 4 seedlings in a wardrobe with nine 26 watt cfls over them. They appear to be singed, I took a picture but in the photo, they look green. I'll try to adjust the camera to get a more accurate pic up here. In the meantime, my...

    Lower Lumens/sq ft for smaller area??

    sorry, i'm not toked up so i'm not thinking clearly. Let me rephrase the question. Is it conceivable that 125,000 lumens would be more effective in a 25 square foot room than 500,000 lumens in a 100 square foot room? I realize that the lumens per square foot are exactly the same in both rooms.
