    Lighting Question

    600 watt light without a doubt is the best way to go.

    anyone ever double pollinate a plant

    It won't make much difference, only on pollen granule per seed, you won't get a mixture of all three plants, just the one that creates the seed.

    Bye bye CFL welcome HPS

    Nice little grow area you got there. You might go pick up a piece of sheet metal from the duct work aisle at your local hardware store and build a nice reflector for $4. Plus $5 for tin snips. Keep going, looking good. the zip tie suspended in mid air fan looks pretty cool also. Have to get some...

    first timer !!

    Looks like some over watering to me. What are you using for nutes, too many could be causing the burnt leaves. The pic at the top looks the the CFL might be too close, could just be the angle, cfl's will do damage to the leaves if they are too close.

    Male?? All that time wasted? Help

    You are gonna have to isolate the male plant because pollen is like ink, it just gets everywhere. I'd keep it on 12/12 lighting, you'll know they are ready because you'll start seeing yellow powder on the leaves where they break open. I suppose you could break a couple open every week until it...

    Male?? All that time wasted? Help

    You are right, wasted time, that is why you should always try to grow 3 - 5 plants from the start that way you should get a female, usually all 5 are females when you do that. You do have to give the pollen sacs time to mature, not sure how long but if you go busting them early it's just a wet...

    2000w White Russian Coco Grow

    Ok, I have no idea on Coco growing, I plan on reading up since it keeps getting mentioned more and more. I learned something already so it's all good.

    Fu htg supply!

    An intercept usually means they recall the package before it gets delivered and it gets sent back to the company of origin. So you might have to wait longer on it if they wait for it to return and then send it back out, or if they resend you a new order and just unpackage the one that comes...

    2000w White Russian Coco Grow

    They look to small too me to be adding nutes already, I'd hold off awhile longer. They can get what they need from the soil, as long as it hasn't been used already. Since you've already added nutes they will be fine. Not trying to interfere with your grow, just letting you know my opinion...

    How to power PC Fans..??

    Don't know what kind PC's you are working on that 99% of the fans plug into the mother board. You should look again. The cpu fan plugs into the mother board and all those case fans plug into 4 pin peripheral power cable. That connector right their is what most fans plug in to. Here is a...

    I dont know who to be pissed at!

    If you've been reading along to a couple of threads posted lately I would suggest you go elsewhere. Unless you don't mind the inconvenience of your lights lasting less than 2 weeks, or your order being wrong, or being shipped to the wrong address. If you want to fight those kind of odds then...

    How to power PC Fans..??

    Easiest way is to use a PC power supply, then all the plugs fit together. You can get a wall adapter and wire them yourself that way, or you can buy 120 volt ac fans and wire them for plugging straight into the wall. Those are your best options.

    weeds in my weed?

    Yep, and bugs too. I thought the soil was supposed to be sterilized when you bought it. Part of the reason of buying it instead of digging it up yourself.

    Seeds that won't germinate

    All I was doing was trying to find out what the person that started the thread meant by using chlorinated water. Yes it is bad, yes it can cause his seeds not to germinate. All you want to talk about is chlorine is a myth, it doesn't effect your grow, etc. You have chlorine and all is well...

    a timer problem?

    Is it possible you have it hooked up backwards ? You may not have enough pressure if you just have it at the bottom of the 55 gallon barrel. Try hooking it to a normal spigot with normal pressure and see if it works, if not I'd say it was defective.

    Fu htg supply!

    I'm not trying to win anything, confrontational, hardly, it just seems like everytime there is a problem with HTG all I see is a couple people posting about how it's all good. It's an isolated incident, don't worry, order you'll be alright, they are new, they got more business, excuses excuses...

    Fu htg supply!

    You can say what you want but yet I'm being snooty ? I'm just tired of people trying to give businesses free passes from their mistakes. I've talked to enough people thru PM's alone to know this is far deeper than isolated incidences. Once in awhile you can expect problems but over and over and...

    Fu htg supply!

    And we think you should kick in some money to reimburse all those that have problems with their stuff, and the money it costs the people using it. I don't even recommend a place that has been good for ten years if the reports start coming in bad, it's usually a sign of poor managment, a...
