Research SOG or Sea of Green. It's a method of growing where you grow more small plants instead of a few big plants.

A hydro store most def has HID but they're going to run you 150+ dollars. What I'm talking about is converting the right type of lamp to suit your needs from one that isn't specifically meant for growing but will ultimately work better than fluoros. google DIY hps or mh. Drop those CFLs down to...

Are they actually 60w CFL's or is that the equivalency rating? Either way if you're going to use CFL's, you might want to add a few more, they're cheap and more light won't hurt. For flowering you really should consider a HID light. There are DIY projects all over the web on how to turn cheap...

George Cervantes' book, Marijuana Horticulture: the Indoor/Outdoor Growers Bible says a period of 24-36 darkness before starting 12/12 stresses plants may increase resin production but he doesn't recommend stressing plants for any reason as it may reduce your final yield.

My local home depot also has 3 footers. I have a 2 x 2' from there as well. They're alright. It doesn't say what temp rating the bulbs it came with are but they look like cool white. I was able to get some high output 2700K bulbs from the local hydro store for it but the single 2 foot T5 HO...

yeah that's the one. It said it was multitap and I actually read that thread and that's what gave me the idea to get a high bay from ebay. I plan on remote ballasting it with those directions, not quite exactly sure how I'm going to do it yet but I'm a hands on visual learner, if I have the...

So I found a holophane high bay 400w HID fixture on ebay for 20 dollars and I can get it local pickup. However, it's a metal halide and I was really looking to go high pressure sodium but for 20 bucks I feel like it's a steal. Startup costs would be cheap even if I had to buy conversion bulbs...

Taxation aside, it would help the economy (and the environment) through new industrial hemp products. Hemp paper - hemp is vastly more of a renewable resource than trees, months to grow compared to years. Hemp fuel - it is feasible, biomass fuels can replace fossil fuels and hemp is the number...

I don't really enjoy salvia, its never really done anything for me and when it has it wasn't anything mind blowingly fun but I live in Ohio and all the head shops around here have been sold out, people have been buying it up since it was announced that it would no longer be legal to sell.

I posted this on my blog thing and thought I would share it here as well. --- Initially I was upset with the way that president Obama addressed a question (regarding the legalization of marijuana) at last thursdays experimental online town hall meeting. video...

I just realized.. bigger plant = more roots? yes? so I'm not sure I want to grow my mother in my ebb and flow tray for that reason and also because then I'll have no place to put the clones. I still wanna go hydro with the mother so I'm thinking build a quick bubbleponics bucket, I had 5'' net...

I'm setting up my first grow and I have the option to get White Rhino or California Kush clones. I can only afford to get one because the price isn't very kind but its worth it to not have to deal with the hassle of ordering seeds. So the plan is to get one and attempt to pull six clones off of...

I'm looking into setting up a very small flood and drain system and I don't understand when a ballast is needed or not and if so how to connect it etc. I want to use 2 high output 2 ft. T5 bulbs. I found the "Hydrofarm T5 High Performance 2 Foot System" on a number of sites...
