    My 1 meter squared tent setup

    Exactly. I would run them inline with a single blower. I actually have my grow-room setup with that exact ventilation config. and it works great. I've got a 465cfm inline exhaust fan that pulls the air from the room into my carbon filter and out through both of my sealed reflectors, then out...

    Feminized PPP - Week 5 of 12/12

    Great job on these plants bro :-D And you take excellent photos as well! I haven't had any experience with the Pure Power Plant. How would you describe the potency and high?

    What do you mean by this? Are you talking about how many blades your leaves have?

    First time grow

    If I were in your situation, I would use the 70w HPS in addition to as many CFLs as you can afford. The more light you are able to provide, the better. And if you've already got the 70w HPS, you might as well make use of it. As long as you have a relatively small growing area, you should get...

    Go back and re-read my post. First off, I never said you CAN'T do it, I said it is not the best way to do it. I am also talking about multiple plants in a single CONTAINER, not reservoir. And I also stated that it's a bigger issue in container gardens than hydro setups. Just because...

    Final Decisions...

    Whatsup Atari... Thank you for your kind words. I sincerely appreciate the feedback. I fully understand where you are coming from and, even though my personal philosophy is "Go Big or Go Home", I realize that everyone is different and is working with a different set of circumstances than I...

    Germinating with or without light

    When working with rockwool, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you use low-PPM RO water that has an adjusted pH of 5.5. If you don't have the gear to monitor and adjust your water, you should not be using rockwool (or any hydro setup for that matter). But regardless of that fact, I still think your...

    Hehe, it's not a "theory", it's a fact. Photosynthesis, which is the basis for growth, will continue for as long as the light is on. If you run the lights for 18 hours per day instead of 24 hours per day, then each day photosynthesis is occurring at a 25% reduced rate (not 30% as I said...

    Germinating with or without light

    Usually you wouldn't use seeds that are that old. You want fresh seed stocks that are about 6 months old. I suppose if the seeds were properly stored in an air-tight container and kept in a cool, dark area they would retain viability, but chances are your seeds are no good. If you have left...

    My Indoor grow

    A pH of 5.7 is appropriate for hydroponics, not soil. He wants his pH to be between 6.3-6.5 for a soil grow.

    whatg is wrong with my plants i also have pics!!

    Higher than 6.8? No sir, you are mistaken. The ideal pH range for a soil-based grow is 6.3-6.5. Even at 6.8 he's running a little on the high side. Any higher and he risks nutrient lockout.

    Germinating with or without light

    Did you germinate your seeds before putting them into the rockwool?

    My Latest Grow

    With the 3 strains I'm growing right now, my flowering cycle is about 8 weeks. I specifically selected strains that all have the same flowering period so I could keep them all together on schedule. If you want to see what I'm doing with the new room, check out my new grow-room thread that...

    My Latest Grow

    No, my two 600w hoods are statically mounted inline with 6" cool duct connecting them with a 465cfm blower. The ducting gets vented out through the ceiling into the house ventilation system. I'm in the process of building a second grow-room that will be used for flowering. That room will use...

    Why not just enough plants to fill up your setup? Packing multiple seedlings into single containers is not going to substantially increase your yield. In fact, like I said before, two plants grown in a single container will yield quite a bit less than if you had grown them separately. Feel...

    My Latest Grow

    Yep :-D Mad white hairs on each and every one. I did a thorough inspection for rogue male flowers and was thrilled when I didn't find any. Of course I will remain vigilant in my search for hermies, but I think it's all good in the hood. I started with all feminized seeds, so I wasn't...

    look good? 3 weeks

    Thanks for checkin' out my latest grow. I love sharing my progress and results with others. My plants all started from seed and vegged for 6 weeks. They are currently on Day 6 of flowering and are already showing a shitload of white hairs. I used feminized seeds, so I knew they would all be...

    The plants will yield less if you grow them together in a single container. This is a pretty well-known fact, and is observed by 99% of growers. It may be of greater concern in container gardens where space for root growth is limited by the container size, but it is bad practice to grow...

    stretch armstrong

    Plants typically double in height during the flowering period. Especially in the beginning, they go through a rapid vertical growth spurt and grow as much as 2" a day. I don't speak metric so I'm not sure what 20cm equates to, but generally speaking, you want to begin the flowering cycle when...

    Everything looks good so far. I've got only one suggestion right now... it's a bad idea to have multiple seedlings in a single pot. The roots will intertwine and you'll end up with an unmanageable mess. One pot = one seedling. Other than that, it looks real good. Congrats on getting...
