    DharmaBud's White Widow Auto & Silver LA Grow 400 Watt HPS

    Next bit got a little more exciting as my initial seeds arrived! I had ordered Skywalker OG Kush Feminised, NL #5 X Haze Feminised, Northern Lights Regular, White Widow Auto Fem, and I got two freebies of that Silver LA. So using the soaking technique, I soaked the two seeds in a glass...

    New Guy Needs Guidance on CFL Lighting

    I have read and been told that miracle grow is a bigg no-no for nj plants, not sure specifically why. To put to rest the lighting debate. I had enough money to invest in something more than CFL's, if I had bought a HPS/MH system, I wouldn't have the grow tent to put it in, or the seed nor soil...

    I retired in 2011 as a combat medic, I have no children, doesn't make sense for me to waste my time making a snowman. Thank you for the idea though.

    3rd grow T5 HO fluorescents closet grow, getting it dialed in

    HPS bravado wasn't aimed at you, it was in general. This statement you made was constructive, it made a point, and more importantly it didn't denigrate anyone. That's how it should be. We are all brothers and sisters here trying to accomplish the same goal. We should help the grower, not harass...

    3rd grow T5 HO fluorescents closet grow, getting it dialed in

    You are an ass, why do you bother even posting if all you are going to do is antagonize and degrade people? Go somewhere else, I don't want to read the same childish banter over and over. You never have a point, it's as if your trying to get someone else to laugh with you and continue the...

    3rd grow T5 HO fluorescents closet grow, getting it dialed in

    I have sat here and read this whole journal. I don't get the few of you who are totally missing the point of a journal #1 and this site as a whole. Woody, you have instently antagonized and provided no constructive criticism throughout the whole journal. The same old T-5 vs. HPS bravado exists...

    I used a soil ph kit on a mound of dirt that had been sitting composting with humus and cow dung and was getting readings from ph 5 to 8.5. I thought I was screwing up, so I called this guy at the soil conservation center here in Alaska. He said to me "sounds about right"!!!! The myth that...

    Ninja, Problem with HPS I had is I don't have an effective way to get rid of the heat, best I can do is a fan. I live in a little 12'x16' cabin, no air conditioner, no space to go CFM route. SO HPS is a little out of my reach for what I have to work with unfortunately. If I got an HPS...

    Tell me something guy's. If I use true blue Alaskan soil, do I run the risk of parasites, or is that something that rarely occurs?

    New Guy Needs Guidance on CFL Lighting

    I can't remember if I said this before, but the max I will have in the grow tent is two plants, I think one 4 bulb fixture in that proximity should do well with the plants. I don't foresee any canopy depth enough to keep the good light from getting to the right places. Then again I'm new and...

    6500 k t-5's

    Hyroot, I am currently looking for the best veg and flower spectrum lights out there, including delving into aquarium lights. Unfortunately I am limited to a 2ft fixture because of the size of my tent. Looked at HTG and found that 2ft tubes are limited to 10,0000k, 6400k, 3000k. That's it. If...

    Its Good To Be Back! My Second Grow.

    Darth, I read and I subbed. I was sitting there sweating it out with you for a while. Makes me think that as a first grow I might just do one maybe two max, so that I can keep up. I am starting out different than you in a way, my seeds are new, one I'm thinking of starting is a auto white widow...

    New Guy Needs Guidance on CFL Lighting

    Darth, You gave awesome advise, but a couple things came into play. One money, wouldn't have been able to get all the things I did get and seeds. I also wasn't jazzed after I researched the technology of that light. It is a PLL technology which basically turns a 2ft light into a 4 ft light...

    New Guy Needs Guidance on CFL Lighting

    The difference between us is I no longer have a Lowe's or Home Depot nearby. Alaska has tiny cities scattered hundreds of miles apart. Mine is 90 miles north in Fairbanks and I have no reliable transportation to get there. I am stuck ordering online and paying for shipping with most things.
