    please send some picts of mature bud

    not being rude so dont take it that way, but i believe it's the trichome's that need to turn 2/3 amber, not the hairs or "pistils" if you brush those with your finger they'll turn brown, so i think that's a bad idea. you need a magnifying glass to look close enough at the trichome heads, they...

    Carbon filter life span...

    yeah, i'd say a year tops, consider this... the "Reef" carbon i get is specilized for saltwater, it's a little more expensive and that shit only lasts me a month in water and that's it. the dirty and things end up filling all the pores in the carbon and it can no longer absorb anymore. If you're...

    1st Pc grow

    In simple terms yes, you could probably grow a plant inside that case, but the chance of you getting enough bud for you, much less your friend as well is wishful thinking. the problem you're going to run into, besides heat and height is width. you've only got 7.5" of room and considering some of...

    fan placement?

    Fan on top will keep it cooler. hot air rises so it has a tendency to wana go up... also, fans can pull out better than they can push through, it's not a huge difference, but it's a little more efficient to have it pull air through the box than try and push it through. the key is to have holes...

    9 day old clones pics

    usually start getting roots at around 2 weeks, maybe less. i dont have a TON of experience with clones, but i've cloned more than just MJ before and it takes a few weeks to really start growing... i wouldn't go poking around in the soil for roots cause if there are any and you move them chances...

    Just keeps getting worse!! help

    You definitely have a heat issue from the sharp turn down of the leaves at the very ends, the plant color looks great overall. has a nice dark green look to it, so you know it's getting plenty of nitrogen. in that pic your soil looks damp.(could be the pic or whatever, but that soil doesn't look...

    Sex and health questions oh my...

    Definitely stretched, need more light! there shouldn't be that much distant between the sets of leaves at this early stage in growth. Possibly lack of nitrogen, but you've got other issues to worry about like lighting, and it looks like they're in plastic cups, you need to get some decent sized...

    Grow in a basement..

    I'm gonna agree with livelife on the digital therm./humidity reader, but i personally would go with flat white paint, cause not because it reflects more or whatever, but chances are you probably have some around your house or someone you know, so it's a little easier to get a hold of. i've used...

    I'm not getting much direct sunlight, should I use my HIDs?

    anyway you could do both? might be a little much for them. maybe try some under the 1000watter and some under the sun and see who does best. also, SuperThrive, from personal experience works and works GREAT. it's no miracle juice, just some plant hormones that can really help transplanting and...

    Alright im new at growing so im starting off wit mids. I need help wit lights

    if it smells loud huh? lol, well...got a lot of reading to do man, you should hit up the FAQ section and read as much as you can. doesn't matter voltage, it's about wattage and if it's a halogen flood light it's not worth your effort. Fish tank lights, also depends on what kind they are. is it...

    time to try again

    When you say 5 gallon bucket, do you mean the entire space inside this cabinet can fit a 5 gallon bucket? if that's the case you are going to have some HEAT issues, big time! and you're gonna run out of room fast. The LST may work, but your plants will have a tendency to double in size when you...

    2 plants (flowering) 1 pot I'm too scared to remove

    +1 on Mr. Fishy, i had two grape tomatoes plants do this a few years back and instead of trying to kill one off i decided to trim the branches and leaves between the two (not all, but enough so they weren't all wrapped around each other) and that seemed to be fine. i work in an office and the...

    My plant seems to be withering help guys:(

    Need way more info. besides this picture, it's at a bad angle too so you can't really tell what's going on. One thing is for sure, you dont have nearly enough light. That's plants stretching like a first baseman for the Mets! Definitely moisture issues, probably too frequent of waterings. How...

    Brown new leafs...

    I could be way off here so dont take it the wrong way, but it looks like possibly they aren't happy with the food they're getting. Mine usually dont take too well to any kind of nutes at the early stage of growth, but all plants are different, some need nutes earlier/later than others. Defnitely...

    Sugar + yeast for co2, for my 3 week old?

    haha.... walk in there and breathe! talk to it, that's plenty of CO2, as for the sugar & yeast, i personally haven't seen it to be very beneficial because it produces at such a slow rate and if you have to vent your room you can lose it instantly, and if u dont vent it could get too hot. Be...

    Night Crawlers For Fertilizer

    +1 smppro, they may help your plants, but they only provide a certain range of nutrients... for the time and effort you put into caring for these lovely plants, you shouldn't skimp on their food. Your mom could have gotten by just feeding you bread and water, but you would've looked like a...
