    Cloning Question

    Does it matter how much light (hours) clones get? I put some in rooters and the light went off about an hour after. The cycle is 14 on 10 off. They are looking a little limp after a full day in the dome. I usually leave clones under 24/7 light and have had a good success rate.

    Camel Back?

    I just got a clone. It is a NL cross, has anyone heard of it or grown it? I tried to search this site and the internet and came up with nada. Thanks

    1200 watts in 6 x 4 area

    I use 2 600 HPS with an ebb/flow system and have gotten about .6 g/watt for the last two grows. Just know that the reservoir will move your plants 10"-14" closer to your lights. Good Luck

    my new grow tent

    The sun will provide up to 3000 watts per m^3, when rays strike normal to the earth's surface. I imagine there is a limit for light but I'm not at it(4.5'x2.5'). Also I would guess that before harm is done to plants watts/electricity would just be wasted, that the photon receptors would be...

    my new grow tent

    I've got 2 600W HPS's. Once the weather starts to change I'll run separate cooling and exhaust, but it isn't an issue right now. Another light may create a need for cooling tubes or enclosed reflectors. Check this out, my recent problem with space and heat mostly just space colas were 2" away...

    2.5 X 5 X 7.5H Space - 1000 Watts Baby!! Many Pics

    Yeah sounds like you'll be ok, I'm just a little bummed about my situation and didn't want someone else to have the same problems. Do you use the office? Are you just going to open the door each night when the light comes on? I don't have a grow log but here's the link to my post...

    2.5 X 5 X 7.5H Space - 1000 Watts Baby!! Many Pics

    I don't want to be a buzzkill but you may have a problem with heat as someone said on the first page. How much space do you have b/t the top of the rubbermaids and the bottom of your reflector? Could you tell me how you will be pushing air from the office(an open door or forced vent)? I have had...

    my new grow tent

    Alright these pictures should give you an idea. You can see I have air-cooled reflectors, but the air-cooling is also my odor control. I may have to use a second fan this summer but it works fine now. I keep the velcro mesh openings fully open to allow greater air flow. I had an ebb and flow...

    my new grow tent

    What size DR is that? I have a 150W (roughly 6.5'x4.5'x2.5') I keep the filter outside of the tent as space is limited with two Daystars a flood table and a reservoir. Just stick the duct in the top vent and lead it to the fan that is attached to the filter, or you could set the fan on the...

    40 inch height restriction

    I posted this in Indoor Growing, but have had no response. It's a long ramble but if you have advise I would appreciate it. That is the distance from the flood table to the bottom of the glass on the reflectors. I'm wondering if I should keep the ebb and flow system or move to a drip that...

    Max height 40 inches.

    That is the distance from the flood table to the bottom of the glass on the reflectors. I'm wondering if I should keep the ebb and flow system or move to a drip that would allow me to place the plants on the floor and gain another 14 inches or so. My plants recently got too big so I pulled out...

    Ongoing problem with thrips, should I use a dunk?

    Yeah, nematodes go after larvae in the soil/medium. Can/should bombs be used during flowering? I'm tending to think I will continue to do what I have been for the last few weeks, at least through the end of the month. My problem is once the situation looks better I become sloppy with the treatments.

    Ongoing problem with thrips, should I use a dunk?

    Thanks for the replies. I'm a month into flowering. I used a single bomb on a previous crop, I guess I should a used a couple more, as the pests came back. Not sure if I can use bombs or not. If I place the dunk in the reservoir will it kill the predatory nematodes? My plants don't look any...

    Ongoing problem with thrips, should I use a dunk?

    I've been battling thrips for months. I can never get them to go completely away. I'll think I'm doing good and then I'll slack on treatments and the little bastards show up again. I've been using nematodes as well as neem oil and bang!. I alternate spray type on the foliage every two weeks. I...

    New Grow Tent JUST RELEASED

    The Darkrooms are great I have one, but the outer material is thin. I'm not sure how but I got a 2" tear that I've patched with black duct tape. Also when the lights are on I can see tons of very small pinholes. Neither of these are serious problems but they are disappointing. If this new tent...

    CFL or T5 for Veg

    That's probably what I'll do. The to be mother is 6 inches high, I think I would use the 43w cfl's. I want to keep her short and bushy as possible. Do you use a reflector for the cfl's? The t5's from hydrofarm have sweet reflectors and several units are able to be linked together. T5's also put...

    CFL or T5 for Veg

    I've been using 2-26w cfl's to veg but the plants have stretched more than I would like them to, so I'm thinking about switching to a single 150w cfl or 2-3 2ft t5's. This light setup would be used for vegging clones and maintaining a mother. Another option would be to get two splitters and...
