I've seen that clip before and took note of each of the points. I'm skeptical about only 9 plants under a 1000 watt light but hey, hes the man! I would personally like to keep the plant numbers a little higher per light but I used to do 25 and found that they just crowded each other out. I'm...

Hmmm seems you didn't read my original post. I am quite handy with google and am able to do google searches. However, anyone who uses the internet regularly knows that anyone can post whatever they want, even if they have never grown a single pound in their life. This same person will claim...

Ok how many would you put under a 1000 watt hps? I have seen Urban Grower and Remo puts 9 plants under a 1000 but I felt that it was a bit of a gamble to go that low. I used to put 25 under a 1000 but they just seem to crowd each other out. Any other opinions out there? Please be as specific...

Hey all, I am currently using 1000 watt lights and I hear lots of talk about 2 pounds per light. I have been growing for quite some time and have never been able to get above .5 grams per watt. So I just wanted to see what some of you guys are doing that are achieving this number. I have...

I veg my plants in 1 gallon containers and then transplant to 3 gallon containers and flower immediately roughly at 1.5-2 feet tall. Towards the end of the veg period they begin to show magnesium deficiency so I water with epsom salt from the hydro store. I always add dolomite lime to my soil...

Are we speaking about indoors? I will agree I've never really had a huge problem with over fertilizing, however, I have grown zombie and california orange and found that the cali orange could take more fertilizer. Not to say that I had an issue with over fertilizing so I think the point you...

Actually I'm looking to add roughly a cup of epsom salt per bail of promix along with dolomite lime and hoping that this is enough magnesium to get me through a full flower cycle (or close to it). I am wondering if doing so will cause lockouts of other vital nutrients when I fertilize. Anyone?

Hey guys, I posted this question in another section but didn't really get an answer. I always seem to get a magnesium deficiency during flowering, usually in the 3rd week. I have been using a cal/mag supplement but I would like to stop for 2 reasons. The first is that I hate treating a...

Hey guys, I always run into magnesium deficiencies in flower. I am looking to avoid this. I always add dolomite lime to my soil (promix) before wetting it, however, I still see the deficiency show up. I can usually water with cal/mag but the plants right under the 1000 watter go through more...

lol no one? From my research, some speculate that although neem oil is systemic, it is "deeper" in the plant than what is necessary to affect a sucking insect like spider mites. If a grasshopper or some type of insect that actually eats the leaf fed on the plant they would be affected. I am...

Just wanted to post a question about the effectiveness of using neem oil as a systemic only. I have had good results dealing with thrips by watering neem oil into my promix but this could be because they like to go into the soil and lay eggs. Just wondering if the only approach I took was to...

Seven spray? Never heard of it. What are its ingredients?

Hey guys, Having a bad thrip problem and its been going on for, well, way too long (a couple of grows so at least 6 months). I've had enough and am going to dedicate myself to getting rid of these bastards. I am limited with what I can use because I live in Canada and we can't get shit here...

In my experience neem based products (which azamax is, I've used it), are not effective if you have an INFESTATION. I want to be clear that if you have adult insects, neem products do not work well on them. This is because its mode of action is to interrupt hormones in the insect and do not...

One other question regarding spinosad, how late into flower is acceptable to use this product? I'm at about 3 weeks in right now. I tried to get this product before but of course its not available in Canada, like everything else that works can't get it here. But I live by the border so...

ok thanks for the responses!!

Hey guys, I have thrips and have been battling them for about 6 months. I've been able to harvest each crop, but they always seem to come back even though I keep them at bay. I really just wanna eliminate these little pests once and for all. I read an article saying to combine neem oil with...

I read a study in urban garden (urban gardener magazine?? not sure what its called) and the scientist was basically running tests on whether carbohydrates and amino acids work or not. To be honest, the results were not impressive. The roots are not able to absorb the carbohydrates or the...

This is what I have heard as well. I'm in promix, so I was thinking of adding silicate to my water the day before, then coming in and adding fertilizer, then adjusting ph. Is this a good plan? Or is it going to make the PH of my promix rise?

Planning on running all 6 in a row. Too many? The guy at the hydro store said I could run as many as I wanted if I bought the biggest fan they had, I was skeptical. Thanks very much for the response.
