    Dyna-Gro vs Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur (AK47 Grow)

    That would be me. The reason I do this is because during the first 3 weeks of 12/12, my plants stretch and very little flowering takes place. If I went to 3-12-6 from day 1 of 12/12, my fan leaves would begin to yellow by the end of the first week and would eventually fall off long before the...

    Dyna Gro first grow

    Your plants cannot read, so do not concern yourself with whatever word the manufacturer chooses as a descriptor for their product. "Grow" is 7-9-5; "Bloom" is 3-12-6. The numbers (and their ratios to each other) are what you want to focus on for plant health. As a soil grower, you have the...

    To flush or not to flush?????

    Personally, I continue with grow (9-3-6) until about 3 weeks into the flowering period. Those girls are going to stretch and they need plenty of nitrogen for this. Then, I gradually switch nutrients (70/30, 60/40, 50/50,) as to not shock the plants with abrupt changes.

    Flood and Drain set up... yay, or nay

    No need to worry about nutrients; if they are dissolved in your water, they are going to easily permeate the cloth. Keep in mind that as the cloth air dries, it will leave behind some of these salts and they will not redissolve back into solution. I haven't had any issues with it, just making...

    Need Help for my T5 grow

    What makes a T5 really shine is a parabolic reflector behind each bulb. As you do not have reflectors, a lot of the light is being scattered rather than being reflected down onto the plants. You will eventually need more light, so I recommend checking out light suppliers who deal with...

    Nirvana seeds

    All of the feminized seeds I have received from Nirvana have resulted in female plants.

    the real reason why cannabis is illegal?

    Voters, and their political masters who control them, are not very bright.

    Secret Jardin DR 120 issue

    I used zip ties so I can still slide the crossbeams around if needed. Kind of strange that they give you a few well made cross beams and two crappy ones.

    Dyna Gro first grow

    Homebrewer's info is a bit more accurate than mine....I purchase nutrients by the gallon, so I have a tendency to not measure PPM/EC as the bottles last a long time. That chart makes a VERY potent solution. 1200ppm of DG will easily burn my plants. I aim for 700-800. Again, soil growing is...

    What's a good yeild booster

    I'm all about the T5 lighting and use it for vegging all of my plants. Some of the CRAP being posted about T5 lighting is nothing short of amusing to those of us who have experience beyond what we have read on the internet. Having said that, I do my best to maintain optimal growing conditions...

    What's a good yeild booster

    Maintain optimal growing conditions. This notion that you add "XYZ" and get bigger products is nonsense.

    Is fish tank water ok?

    Even better if you use a siphon to clean all the poop out of the gravel (don't do this if you have a planted tank.)

    Dyna Gro first grow

    Here is my recipe; feel free to change it around as you see fit. Remember, read your plants and not the internet!! They will tell you a LOT more than anyone else. Pro-Tekt: 5ml/g Add this stuff first. Mag Pro 2.5ml/g I use RO water so I am replenishing what I have removed. Grow or...

    Smart pots, Pros/Cons?

    Similar to air pots. No, they certainly do not hold water....not like a typical pot would. They are made with fabric. I'm not sure about the overwatering; maybe kenetic will explain a bit.

    Another legit bust for the Obama regime.

    Smart pots, Pros/Cons?

    They keep the roots air pruned, so there is no root spin out. They work great in ebb and flow systems as they are water permeable top to bottom. I don't know if you will get more growth...I can only inform you that I went from 2g to 3g and then back to 2g as I have height restrictions and...

    Will the .00035 of foil in skunk bags set off a metal detector at an airport?

    Put whatever you want to bring in your checked luggage. IF you choose to carry said item on your person, all you have to do is "opt out" of the body scanner. You will patted down by a politically correct, lazy, unionized government employee who will not go anywhere near your junk. When they...

    Nirvana vs. Everyone Else? Aurora Indica?

    I just harvested a Nirvana AI grow. Quite potent for sure, but you won't be doing the thorazine shuffle to the fridge either. I've had decent results with other grows; Nirvana isn't the "be all, end all" of seed providers, but I have never had any issues that make me never want to purchase...

    Longterm Storage

    Long term, I would put it in sealed containers filled with argon and make sure no light would reach.
