    When mixing soil should I add 2-3 tbs of dr.earth per gallon of soil ?

    I'm considering Dr. Earth because of the Trubiotics plus it's organic and available at my local big box. The dosages mentioned in this thread seem different compared to the back of the bag. Am I missing something in your conversions? Dr. Earth tea directions seem to be 1 cup per 1 gal. of...

    Agreed. Since seeing how compacted the roots were in the red Solo cups (pics past) I'll up-pot to 5 gal. before flip. How many days before flip should the transplant take place? I'll post more pics as days go but we'll evaluate again around 3/28 for a 4/1 flip. I've still got the mesh...

    It's not urgent that they be flipped and flipping can wait until April 1st, or longer. I've never had plants in this good of condition so don't know what to expect in size. LOL

    18 days since transplant - less than 3 weeks. What a turn around. Thanks everyone. I'm thinking of flipping these next Friday into Saturday because I don't know what to expect for size. Five plants have been topped twice while one was topped only once. I've been told that FFOF has about...

    Trellis netting installation if/or Q

    A disadvantage in the tent is string/rope being fished through and around the light fixture. You have a custom ceiling and can create custom hook locations. Good point about misinterpreting the height.

    Trellis netting installation if/or Q

    Now that I've seen what other growers are doing the simplest might be 4 cinder blocks in the corners of the tent < tie down a twin bed frame to the blocks for the stability. Something like this should slide right in to the tent.

    Trellis netting installation if/or Q

    You have a clean looking setup. The netting is poly so will slide down the poles and the center will sag from all the weight of the pineapples. After seeing your setup I don't see the point of this poly. It's a toy.. I must prefab something and may just have to use sticks on my current...

    I found a website that offers DIY genetic engineering courses. One of their latest courses was a 'how-to' change a plant's color. The following seminar has already passed but what are your thoughts on tweaking a marijuana plant's color? Of course there is leg-work to do. People seem to...

    Trellis netting installation if/or Q

    I want to use a trellis and am double checking on how to properly install/use. The plants are growing in a 5x5 side of a 5x10 Vivosun tent and the trellis netting size is (3.5" square mesh, 5' x 15'). How should I support the trellis so that it can support the weight? After installing the...

    Updayday LED thread

    Looks great. It looks like the "400w" might be under the 12-14 hour "All lights on" dimmer mode and other modes use different wattages.

    The controls look cool like a retro stereo receiver.

    Cat turds carry a parasite, Toxoplasma gondii, that eats at the human brain. It's weird.

    Operation Transplant was a success (transplanted 3/1). Thanks everyone! A pic of the fluffiest plant. Notice the overall pic. Canopy top is 24" from fixture and lux is about 30k. About 12" of grow height where lux is about 70k. As the plants get taller penetration will fade outside of...

    New Lighting Products/Tech? I'm Out Of The Loop. Fill Me In.

    One time I is was in that Harbor place that sells freight looking at scales. The clerk agrees I can test one before buying. We know what a U.S. nickle weighs. We tested three scales before the clerk said buy one or go. I went without a scale.

    Hello, I happen to be looking for a new light today. Is there any reason you are staying away from HLG?

    I was trying to reinstall the wire that flew out based on the twisted shape of the wire. It's color coded so only two guesses but then I noticed two more connectors disconnected. Since I didn't pay anything for this light I may just shitcan it. But now I'll need another light.

    Good comment. I think there is something to PH'ing and that's why I emailed FF. It's the last thing I need to do at this point.

    Right now the tent temp is 77.9°F. At the end of the lights on tent heat could hit a high of 79.1°F. Heat was changed and is now set @ 77°F with a 2°F heating difference. According to the VPD tool at this temp RH should be 70% (for early growth stage). Tent humidity is set to 65% Should I...
