    I don't know what your rates are but for me, when I run 1 400w for 18hrs a day it comes out too $28.something a month. When I switch to flower (12hrs a day) I run 2 400w which costs me about $34 a month. you can google a formula for kilwat per hour. pretty easy to follow.

    I innoculated with a spore syringe took about 5-6wks for the bag to be fully colonized. put it in a tray and cased.

    yes I believe that is how you would want to set it up. mine is inside the tent. and it works most efficiently that way.

    Won't pin am I about to experience casing overlay?

    Im using pure Canadian sphagnum peat but lately i've just patched with verm. damn this sounds like a shitty situation. So I have a tank with lava rocks on the bottom a decent amount with that tropic air humidifier since you say you don't case could I get away with not casing since Im able to...

    Won't pin am I about to experience casing overlay?

    SO im still new to all of this, this being my second mushroom grow. First were cakes now is spawn bag (cambodian) Ok so after the bag was fully colonized I put down a thin casing layer and put my brick in the aluminum tray. Then cased it about 1/2" and put it away. After a few days the myc was...

    6" is plenty. remember the more turns that are in the ducting the less efficient it will work. I don't remember the statistics im sure you could find it but for every turn it looses like a good 20-30% vacum efficency. If that is the case were you have to make many turns you may look into a...

    hell ya man looks good! one thing when you attach the hangers to the rods on the top of the tent im sure theres other methods maybe even better but what I do is grab some heavy guage wire from lowes (something that is really tough and hold weight) I took it and looped it through the hole of the...

    The "I don't starve my plants before harvest" thread

    aah nice... What is so different about nute uptake from soil to hydro? Ive heard you can get plants to grow bigger faster and are done sooner in hydro, why is that? Doesn't the roots take up the nutes the same or does it know theres a difference in mediums? These may be retarded questions...

    This looks good it even comes with two bulbs so you can use the MH in veg and the HPS in flower, the only downside to wing style reflectors if heat is an issue for you and even with all the fans going and inline on full speed you may still have heat issues which means you have to figure out how...

    that filter will probably work didn't see a brand on it. but i noticed it said 448cfm which is the vacum volume it moves, depending on your grow which I'm assuming is fairly small correct? you might be at an overkill with the fan. I think my hydrofarm inline fan is only like a 200cfm and it's...

    I don't know much about that specific light but Im sure it'll get the job done. I started out with a sunlight system light. eventually bought a better ballast and better bulbs but that will do great. If your doing small and heat may be an issue you may want to consider a 250w but warning after a...

    well smell, I use a carbon scrubber because I exhaust my grow room into an adjacent room in the house so the air goes everywhere in the house. If you vent straight outdoors and don't have any neighbors near by you could prolly get away with not having one but not recommended. You can make all...

    Anyone Truly Love Working with Plants [not mj]

    Ok so here is my new toy, thought I'd share with everyone. I am just growing mix lettuce although looking at this thing, it might turn into a useful little place for clones... IN here you can see my dome, behind that is a kiwi vine, behind that is a clementine orange tree that just finished...

    I mean in order for cops to get a warrant they have to go to the judge and present enough evidence that would prove your growing then the judge would sign the warrant. If they don't have enough conclusive evidence the judge isn't going to risk a mishap and sign the warrant without knowing for...

    lol ok no one, I assumed (made an ass out of me and well me) I just felt like i had to go on the defense for a moment. I never meant to say their info is wrong in books its just history has proven it possible. and since in my personal experience I never noticed a difference I just wondered why...

    I used to too. Heres how I look at it. Its not illegal to buy a HID light as their are many people who garden indoors, infact a neighbor of mine has a 1000watt and multiple t5's setup and he doens't grow any bud. Cops aren't searching through every online purchase that would be impossible and...

    The "I don't starve my plants before harvest" thread

    completely agree! and I will continue to use the information in the books but why is it so absurd of me to question? and ask for evidence? I remember growing up my mom would always till the garden to "loosen up the soil which made plants grow better" but Im now reading a book 'teaming with the...
