Holy shit you guys are fucking useless sometimes... Is it that hard to answer the question like a normal person? Anyways. OP my method is when using new or reusing old hydroton get a big tub of some kind and wash until the water is clear. Then soak in a mild h202 solution for a few hours...

Nope. It should smell rather pleasant. All my soil smells very earthy when it's finished. How did you cook it? Too much water perhaps?

Supercrop and bondage are my suggestions if she's still stretching. I can't imagine her stretch lasting too much longer. Also now would be a good time to think about trimming some lower growth, stuff that obviously won't be getting much light. Those panels aren't sold for their penetration...

LOL ignorant twat, people like you are the reason the world in general sucks. Go be a bad troll somewhere else. Anyways. I've been using strictly tap for about two years with great results. Mostly because, as OP said, my situation permits. I bubble my water for 24 hours before using also. Tap...

I've done exactly the same. Started seeds in jiffy pellets then transferred to a net pot for dwc. The way I did it I waited until the first true set of leaves came through, then basically stuck the seedling in a bowl of water and washed the jiffy pellet shit away. Leaves you with some...

Awesome stuff, glad to see an understanding on lumens also... I can definitely believe cfls beating out an equal wattage HID bulb. More individual light sources vs one single point and being able to keep the bulbs so close will definitely produce. What you've made is essentially what some DIY...

Thanks guys! Stoked to have some interest! Total wattage is iffy. Those goddamn UFOs are advertised as 90w... But we all know how that goes. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and settled on ~70W or so. I'm sure the info is out there somewhere, haven't found an exact number however. The...

Hey guys, not really sure what brought me to making this now of all times. But here it is none the less. I don't exactly plan on updating very often unless anyone shows some interest in it. I tend to ramble with details so I hope everyone brought their reading glasses. :joint: We have here two...

Yet another outstanding thread you guys have put together, excited to see how this turns out. Waiting on some parts to arrive on a new DIY panel of my own. (nothing close to this) Seems like it's time for a name change, no? DJ set doesn't apply anymore :eyesmoke:

It refers to their respective points on the color spectrum. With each one leaning farther into the 'red' side of the spectrum into IR. Waiting on my LEDs/drivers from China, aka fucking Mars, for my new panels... There isn't enough weed on the planet to dull that agony of checking tracking...

I've had a lot of fun reading through this, plants look all around awesome... Well done. Your setup is envious to say the least. Hooray for OCD! Been wanting to pick up some TGA gear for the first time and I've been eyeballing AOS as it seems to be back in stock at the 'tude. Recommendations?

Great setup. My favorite part of this grow is how personal it all seems, you do a very nice job at articulating your plans. Good show. As someone who is fortunate enough to enjoy our favorite flower only for recreational purposes it's awesome to see people taking initiative to supply their own...

You disagree with lollipopping but defoliation is alright? Perpetual sog would be my method of choice.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned going down the DIY road. MUCH cheaper, fully customizable spectrum and did I mention it's cheaper? Seriously though, do some reading around these parts and get an idea of what everyone is doing, in some cases home made panels can easily outshine a generic panel...

Funny to see this after reading your Kessil thread.... :wall: I am very interested in this as I seem to have a pretty bad problem with leaves turning on me while flowering also. Recently I've added a DIY panel using mostly warm whites with a few 630 reds and neutral whites. Growth is looking...

It's a crude assumption that everyone who grows weed does it for money. Which is irrelevant either way. I go for quality... IN MY PERSONAL OPINION... LED grown herb is much better than any HID grown. That's reason enough for me to invest. Also, with DIY being so much cheaper than panels AND...

Get a carbon filter? Problem solved.

Brand name panels are hit or miss for the most part without dropping some serious cash. DIY is the place to be. Custom wavelengths, and much cheaper. There's some awesome threads here that go over everything you need.

I just finished my first ever DIY LED light also, using the entire Astir thread as reference along the way. SDS is doing some awesome stuff. My soldering is definitely less than desirable, but getting it working period was an accomplishment enough for me as a first timer. Ordered all of my LED...

Very cool all around. From the strains to the plasma, super interested. Sub. :bigjoint:
