looking good man!

I havent used those co2 boost buckets. I have used both tanks and a generator and filling a propane tank once a month is alot nicer however the cost is heat so good ventilation is a must. Those co2 booster bucket things I googled and they were $140 bucks and $100 for each refill bucket. I cant...

Where he lives, if this system is true or bullshit, or whatever other agruing on here totally misses the point. Yeah the system sounded too good to be true and if it all costed $26,500 then it continues on to say 4 rooms at $2050 per room the other $18,300 was shipping?(and no i didnt bother to...

Setup sounds very nice an 4 of them sounds great.. Just a comment though, the water cooled fixtures, I am cooling about the same wattage (400w less) in about the same space and I am doing so with a 450cfm fan/carbon filter through my air cooled refelectors. I am sure you could keep those...

Yes Exactly the same as me.. I came here thinking ok someone has alot of HID lamp in a small box then I see pictures of 4 cfl bulbs. Anyways, too much light even with multiple HID lamps is seldom an issue as long as there is proper ventilation. In the case its more like not enough light...

Run a good enough ventilation set up and you could burn a huge bulb in a small area. The lower the watt HID lamp the closer to plants can go. There is debate over how many lumens per sq you should have but still many would consider the 250w to be over kill in that small area. 250w =25,000...

Well if your going to breed you will either have to grow a bigger appreciation for males or your going to have to force females to hermie with hormone treatment(gibberellic acid) or stress and if you use stress those children could also be apt to hermie from that sort of stress. Some folks will...

This still doesnt mean you all shouldnt take a shot at it. Theres nothing wrong with breeding this male with that female or screwing arround with pollen from a hermie on another breed your farting with. Hell some of todays top strains have there roots back to John Doe grower someplace growing in...

The "other strains" would be good practice and the thing to mess with first. With clonable strains you can keep daddy and momey under constant veg light. Then your able to clone those to make your seeds. Then being able to cross back to both mom and dad back with there children while trying to...

Didnt you also recently change meters earl? wonder what the old ones conversion factor was.

Going by PPM can be misleading though as there are 2 differant conversion factors that some meters use. Any Dutch grower I know uses EC instead of PPM. The NaCl conversion(0.5) or the 442 conversion(0.7). I do belive that the milwaukee SM401 uses the 0.5 conversion factor. Here is where it...

Howdy again Earl. 1500ppm? Does your meter use NaCL Conversion or the 442 Conversion? If your not sure do you know what the EC was? (arround 2.2 or at or above 3.0 milisiemens?)

Stabilizing a strain is a complex time and space consuming matter made and even more so with an autoflower. If you were to breed bluemystic with lowryder2 the resulting seeds wont nessesarly all autoflower. If you were to breed those resulting seeds with a lowryder2 again you will have a...

Its not the wattage of what cfl's you use its the number of lumens per sq ft you want to be conserned with having 2,000 to 3,000 lumen per sqft. The lower wattage cfl bulbs are cheaper but you will need more of them.

Almost correct. A hermie plant only has the female gene so it wont make a male plant. The kids would be all female however if they are subjected to whatever made the parrents hermie they will also be very likley to hermie.

Your just not getting it... There is not a genetic marker for a hermie plant, a plant can have the male genetics or the female one and either sex can turn hermie as a defense mechanizm. If he were to plant the seeds produced from this crop it doesn't nessesarly mean that all or majority of the...

Not nessesarly accurate.. If your growing a hermaphordite that turned hemrie because of some sort of stress then its off spring will be highly likley to turn hermie if they encounter that same kind of stress. If the plant doesnt see this stress it wont hermie simple as that. A feminized...

Just to clarify some things about feminized seeds and hermie's. A feminized seed from a seed bank by a reputable breeder are made by treading the plant with gibberellic acid. Gribberellic acid is a hormone and treating a pot plant with this will cause a female to hermie. The seeds on the...

The pictures the orignal guy proves you can grow under less then the recomended light. You could grow from seed to harvest with just a 100w incandescent bulb but its not like your going to be happy with the yield. The simple and easy way to configure lights = add the lumens / sq ft and...

Where are you getting this math??? Are you trying to use the the inverse square law? Take a look at this webpage or just about any other indoor growing info page. http://www.gardenscure.com/cultivation-bible/bible-02.php My garden is 12x12 and I burn 6 600w HID lamps at 90,000 lumen each...
