    First grow (ww)

    Keeping the heat down will help minimize stretch but mostly is just something you have to live with. Some strains stretch more than others. I'd keep some stakes handy.

    Little advice with a couple of things please..

    You have a point. Where I live the water is very alkaline which won't be the case for everyone.

    First grow (ww)

    Where's your light...from the pic looks like your lighting the plants from the side??? Get that light up above and put it on an easy to adjust chain or yo-yo. Also, don't spray when the lights are on. The drops of water act like a magnifiying glass and burn the leaves. Best time to spray is...

    spider mites

    But be careful with a humidifier...too much of that and you'll end up with powdery mildew. Should've mentioned before that mites have a 7-10 day life cycle and most "cures" only get the adults not the eggs. The trick is to hit em every 2-3 days for 10 days so you get the adults and then the...

    Little advice with a couple of things please..

    Your budget is pretty small so I would have done a few things differently. First I would have skipped the mylar and just gone with flat white paint, simple very effective and cheap. Second, I would have skipped the GH nutes and gotten Shultz or Peter's Professional (dry) nutrients. They are...

    how much co2 from sugar/yeast

    You've got a real small space so dunno, maybe you'll get a boost from your set up, but my gut tells me you'll have to add sugar and water so often it'll be a major pain in the a$$ and not as cheap as you think. IMO just bite the bullet and get a co2 tank and regulator. Oh, and if your going to...

    Week 2 of first grow, how am i doing?

    Get the pH in the 5.5 to 6.5 range and keep it there. What kind of pH solutions are you using? Good ones will have buffers to keep it stable. Try GH or AN for pH up & down. Also, make sure to let your water sit in an open container for min 24 hrs to let chlorine gas off. Stirring the water...

    spider mites

    I've had spider mites and hate those damn bastards. Deal with em fast, time is buds. I agree with sparkjumper about the no pest strips. They are amazing, cost like 4 bucks, and work wonders. The down side is they won't stop them overnite (need a week or so before you get results) and you...

    My Super Grow Room

    Def a lot of cash to spend on a first grow. IMO it's better to start simple and work your way up. Do couple harvests in soil and then move to hydro. Then add light movers, and then CO2 etc. Only thing I would't skimp on is the light...doing floro or cfl for bloom is a waste of time...just...

    So out of twelve TGA plants started....

    I love Querkle. Easy to grow w/great yields. Finishes fast as hell (50 days) and it's mind blowing smoke. I do a soiless mix and veg for 3 weeks under t5's and then put it under 400w HPS for 7 weeks and I always get over 2 oz per plant. She's beefy too, doesn't need the staking and support...
