    My wife and I got our medical scripts and so I am setting up our grow facility. Check it out and let me know your thoughts. I converted a 12 foot by 12 foot out-building into a 2 chamber grow facility. A 4x6 foot veg room with T5 and a 2x4 foot flood/drain tray with a res under it and a 7x11...

    Best way to keep moms.

    Thanks all. Sounds like I need to get some pots and grow my mammas big and healthy and it won't be an issue. I don't want to buy another expensive light so I'm thinking of going to home depot and buying a standard flourescent tube light and just plugging it into my timer I use for veg. If anyone...

    I'm curious, to produce 18 clones every 2 to 2.5 months, how many moms do I need?

    Thanks. I like the idea of soil. And I guess I could even hand water..

    Best way to keep moms.

    I've got a 2x4 foot flood/drain tray for my vegging and I just got started. I'll have 3 moms and want to grow that to at least 5. I'll need to get them their own tray or pots or something, as the 2x4 tray will be filled with the vegging plants. What is the best, easiest way to maintain moms...

    How long to my plants stay in veg stage?

    Thanks for your responses. I was thinking that I'd veg them for at least 4-6 weeks, but maybe 8. To be completely honest, I'm just trying to plan our Christmas vacation and am trying to figure out when my first harvest should/will be.. Ha ha ha. And to be honest, I don't even want to go on...

    How long to my plants stay in veg stage?

    I started with clones that are in the 4 inch rock wool cubes and are currently vegging under my T5. They are about 5 inches tall. I'm curious to know how much longer they will stay in veg before I move them into the flower room under my 1000 watt HPS lights? Is there a general rule about size or...

    pictures of my veg room

    So my veg room is finally up and running with 15 clones in 4 inch rock wool cubes. There is a 4 foot 8 bulb T5 light set over a 2x4 foot flood tray over a reservoir with a pump on a timer. For ventilation, I have a 4 inch inline fan that is connected to a thermostadt. When the inside temps reach...

    flowering in rock wool?

    Thanks all. Here's 2 pics I took this morning of my set-up. I've been hand watering. Getting ready to put the small rock wool cubes into the bigger cubes and get my flood cycle set up using my reservoir, pump, and a timer. All thoughts welcome. I've never done this before....

    Best Budget 1000w Ballast?

    You didn't mention whether you are running 120 or 240 V, but... I got a good deal on Valueline 1000 watt ballasts that run at 240V and switch between HPS and MH. Have not used them yet, but I've fired them up. I expect that more expensive ballasts would generate less heat and be more quite, but...

    flowering in rock wool?

    Anyone ever done it? Is it a totally stupid question? Are rock wool blocks OK to flower in on a flood/drain tray?

    best growing medium for flood/drain systems?

    My clones are in the rock wool cubes under my T5 veg light right now. After veg they will go into my flower room under 2 1000 watt HPS. Both my veg room and flower room are flood/drain trays with the res under the trays. I am curious to know what the best medium is to put my clones into when...

    choice of 8 inch in-line fan??

    Thanks All. This is for my flower room that is 7x11x8 tall (616 cubic feet). It is a sealed room so this vent line goes from outside, through 2 vented 8 inch hoods, and then right back outside so it never touches the inside air and there is no carbon filter on this line for the fan to work on...

    choice of 8 inch in-line fan??

    I'm towards the end of setting up my grow room and I need an 8 inch inline fan. I've been told that the Vortex fan is the top of the line, yadda, yadda, yadda, and it costs about $270. Ouch. So I'm tight on cash. Is there really a big difference between a Vortex and Organic Air and ...... other...

    best (quiet-est) way to install an inline fan??

    I have an exhaust run that pulls air from the outside, runs through my vented hoods, and then outside again, so it is a closed system for my sealed room. I need to install an inline fan to move the air and I'm now wondering what the best way to do this is. Should I use the bracket and install it...

    what mixture of water/bleach solution to clean grow room equipment?

    I want to sanitize some things before I move them into my room by wiping them down with a solution. Should I use bleach or hydrogen peroxide and how much do I add to a gallon of water? Thank you!

    is this in-line fan too big?

    I have 8 inch air intake and an 8 inch air exhaust vent installed in my room, my hoods are vented 8 inch hoods. I was planning on getting an 8 inch inline fan, that way everything would be 8 inch. But I found a good deal on a use 10 inch fan. Would there be any problems going from an 8 inch...

    insulated or un-insulated venting?

    The venting line that vents my hoods, via in-line fan, goes from outside to outside. The air never touches the air inside the room. My room is sealed. Should I use insulated or un-insulated venting for this venting line? Thanks.
