    The "How old are you" thread

    I'm the oldest at 52! Been smoking everyday since I was 14. I guess none of you pups remember real Thai Sticks brought back from SE asia during the Vietnam era..., or the black Columbian Whacky Weed, or REAL Jamiacan Gange.

    need tips to hot! 400watts

    Your fan can't be too powerful or the charcoal won't filter well. This should not be a problem. Using a 400w HPS in a cooltube, a can33, and a 200cfm inline centrifugal fan will do the trick nicely. Eliminate the heat and the smell. I would not use the air input fan as it will reduce the neg...

    Splicing

    One thing you can do is splice two different strains together creating a plant that will produce two varieties of weed.

    Blueberry strains

    Did you test the potency of the pics? How did they taste? There is only one Blueberry and that is DJ Short's. All the others are made from his and are either F2's, or hybridized. Dutch Passion is the one exception as DJ Short is their Blueberry supplier. So if you have DP Blueberry you have...

    What do you use to control PH?

    I got about a 5 year supply of Earth Juice Natural Down for $10 at Texas Hydro. Good stuff.

    How soon to take clones with CFL's

    Doesn't look like you have any branches or side shoots to take a clone from... You can clone a pretty young plant but it needs to have a two inch or longer branch to cut.

    Grow tents, are they worth the money?

    If you have the time and material maybe its worth making one, but not as far as I am concerned. The HomeBox tents are great - fully zippered, light tight, lined with white mylar, vent screens, resealable cut-outs for vent tubes, fold up design, portable, etc. If you can make one like that...

    GrowLux vs Standard Sylvania 400w HPS?

    The guy you are referring to was in Houston, ran a single shop, and he did turn in customers. Texas Hydroponics has several shops around Texas and they do not turn in their customers. Most pay in cash anyway.

    Quick question, need a fast answer please

    If it were me I'd use eight 23w 6500k cfls. This will provide plenty of light for vegging a few seedlings. It's helpful to be able to adjust the height of the lights since you can easily veg them a foot under this scenario. Then off to the 600w HPS.

    Just A Few CFL growing questions

    Add more cfls, not soft white, use daylight at least 5000k but 6500k is better - four for $9 at Lowes. Four is enough to get you going but six or eight would be better.

    When do you put seedlings under the light?

    If you just plant them in the soil to begin with, then dome the top or cover the cup with a baggie and put them in your lighted grow chamber you won't need to worry about this. Take off the baggie once they pop out of the soil.

    clone not growing

    It may still be experiencing some shock. Maybe some liquid kelp or some superthrive?

    harvested seeds not germinating

    My fresh seeds never germ well, no matter how good they look only about one in five will pop. But after they age for a few months (I don't refrigerate) they pop about 90% or better. I've seen posts from breeders confirming that seeds germ best after 6 months from harvest. Sometimes I think...

    GrowLux vs Standard Sylvania 400w HPS?

    Just flowering with it, I veg under cfl. The added blue is attractive, but does it matter in flower? It's a lot more $$$

    Anyone grown Mazar-I-Sharif from Real Seeds?

    Got a free pack of five from Seed Boutique. They're pure landrace Indicas from Afganistan and used to make some kind of famous hash, so says the description. Don't have room now but I was wandering if they are worth a try. Funny thing is I've received many freebies in orders and never grown...

    CLone without root liquid

    I use the GreenLight rooting powder available at Lowes and Home Depot. It's worked well for me. Never tried the gel.

    GrowLux vs Standard Sylvania 400w HPS?

    Anybody tried the 400w GrowLux series after using the standard HPS? I've always used good quality Sylvania 400w LU400's ($17.99 at Lowes just down the road). I generally replace it every three or four flower cycles and I'm getting ready to change my current one. I am considering the...

    So all the Attitude fanboys out there...

    I agree - this site needs a moderator to can all posts regarding stealth shipping methods used by seed suppliers. You think LEO does not read these forums? You are wrong. Doc Chronic used to be the best - I never had anything but sweet success. Then LEO caught on. The Seedboutique...
