I agree. What's worse is that in Philadelphia, they have just passed the 300th murder of the year, including 20+ police officers, and real drugs such as heroin, crack, and crystal meth are easier to obtain than cigarettes. And this is the shit they are spending time and resources on.

Thanks for the encouraging words GStoke :-D I'll be posting updated photos next Saturday. These bitches are growing fast so I expect some substantial growth between now and then. My anticipated harvest date is Jan. 14, so not much time left.

Yes, you should maintain a constant light schedule with lowryders. Most breeders recommend a 20/4 light schedule from seed to harvest. Running an 18/6 schedule is a waste of time and money. Your plants will grow faster and finish sooner with a 20/4 schedule.

Yes, it is used to pipe the air wherever you want it to go. Typically, you would connect one end to your exhaust fan and the other would go to a hole out of the room. That way you are removing the exhaust from the room completely. This is the way proper ventilation is run.

BCTrippin just told you what it is.... a ballast.

That would be flexible ventilation ducting... very nice to have. Available at Home Depot in various diameters for about $20 per 25ft.

Yeah, you need to change the way you are watering them because the way you are doing it is not correct. What you want to do is allow the soil to become almost completely dry all the way through. Then, water it heavily making sure to fully saturate the soil. Given the size of the container you...

Once you've got 5 nodes of growth, top the plant. If you don't know what this is, or need help doing it let me know. It will stop vertical growth and force your plant to grow out laterally, producing a stocky, bushy plant instead of a tall, lanky one. You'll also end up with two main colas...

It looks heavily overwatered, which is what is causing the drooping leaves. How often do you water them, and how much water are you using each time?

Yeah I agree... better them than me :-D I hate it how the cops always amp up the "street value" of the weed they seize just to make the story more impressive.

Way back when I first started growing, this was the way I germinated my seeds. Just drop them into a glass a of water and and wait til they pop and grow out the tap-root. Some people still do this, sometimes just soaking them like that overnight before moving them to paper towels. Personally...

Yep, once your rockwool cubes have rooted, you can just remove the plastic wrap and stick them right into whatever grow system you have.

A friend of mine just brought to my attention the story of a grow-house bust in Philadelphia this past week. Apparently, four college students from Temple University were operating a grow room in their city apartment close to the campus. Police seized 9 live plants in a hydro setup, 16lbs of...

Nobody said that 18/6 was "bad". It's just an unnecessary waste of time. There is no reason not to run a 24/0 schedule. It promotes faster growth and has no negative aspects. If you can improve your photosynthesis rate by 30% by switching to 24/0, why stay on 18/6. Like I said, the science...

I bought my lights and most of my equipment from HTG. In the future I will shop locally because the shipping costs were ridiculous. I found a great hydro shop 15min away from my house that stocks everything, and at prices that are as good or better than HTG, and without the extra shipping expense.

Don't talk shit you troll. It's his first time growing and he successfully produced buds. Just because it's not a perfect, ideal grow doesn't mean it's weak or shitty. We all start out as beginners and improve through experience. What have you done besides come on here and make a stupid-ass...

Correct.... A plant vegged for 30 days on a 24/0 light schedule will be bigger than the same plant vegged for 30 days on a 18/6 schedule. This means you can have a bigger plant going into flowering equaling more buds, or you can veg it for a shorter time period giving you less total time to...

You can germinate in pre-soaked rockwool cubes with no problem. Just keep them under a humidity dome in the dark until they sprout. Once they sprout, hit them with 24/0 of light and remove the dome. Most people prefer to use the paper towel method because they can monitor when the seeds...

Yeah, you can switch to 24/0 with no problems. And seriously, don't worry about it causing stress. I promise you it won't. The only thing you'll notice is faster growth.
