    Planning on entering the Grow game

    I'm thinking (s)he meant a timer for your lights. You don't need a fan controller I wouldn't think, since having exhaust on 24/7 means fresh co2-rich air for your plants 24/7.

    Bugs

    I used "Garden Safe Fruit and Vegetable Insect Killer" by Schultz. Safe for use up to day of harvest (supposedly). Also, yellow fly paper and introducing lady bugs to the grow.

    Planning on entering the Grow game

    Only thing that gets me is that the fan is rated higher than the max recommended CFM for the filter, yet its sold as a combo...

    Are all "high output" bulbs created equal?

    So I'm getting a head start on planning a new grow for a move a few months ahead. My setup is most likely going to be a vertical grow using 4 400w hps bulbs with digital ballasts. Anyways, I found this on ebay It's a 400w high output (55k lumens, same as name-brand) and it's only $25 after...

    Here to answer Electrical Questions

    I'm planning on moving soon and will probably be running 1600w of lighting (4x 400w). Is this too much to run in a room that also has a PC and TV (and possibly an AC)? If so, would it be safe to run a cord from an adjacent bathroom to power half the lights?

    Is this a good deal or what? Ebay

    "Is this system large enough to pull at least 1 to 2 oz each if sogged and done right." That's a bit much for a true sog. I cut 7-10 inch clones and flower as soon as the roots are ready. I'm quite happy with my 12-18g per plant. sog is all about smaller plants, and lots of em! good luck...

    I have a question about DIY ez cloner

    I remember hearing that leaving the sprayers on for 2 mins every 20 mins (2 on 18 off) give the best nute-o2 for 'em. Too much water can cause stem rot, though I've never personally used aero so I don't know if stem rot even applies... edit: although now that I actually clicked the link to see...

    2009 outdoor for Appalachian Region

    I'm new to outdoor and had actually thought about using google earth too. I'm assuming you're looking for clearings in the woods, near a stream? I wouldn't assume they'd grow very well under a tree canopy, is this right? I've got a PPP mother already in full swing from my indoor s.o.g., figure...

    Lining Wall with Pictures?

    its a fair enough question, and i think there is a possibility that there is a small amount of truth to it. (maybe) There is a researcher named Masaru Emoto who studies the effects of thought on the world around us. He printed words and short phrases and attached them to multiple water bottles...

    how many watts raises eyebrows ??

    Pay your bills on time and they wont care. High electric bills cannot be enough for a warrant. Many people run multiple computers with 1000w power supplies perfectly legally.

    Good cabinet for mother?

    I'm just going to use 2 PC fans hooked up to a 12v converter in parallel. I've got 21 cubic ft in the cab and each fan is rated at 31 cfm which should exchange the air about once every 20 seconds, give or take. No filtration needed as it's just for mothers. Sounds like plenty to me.

    Sea of Green- frustrated, please help.

    I use DWC actually, with 6 plants per 20" x 14" bucket (4 buckets atm, about to increase to 5, also upping to 8 plants per soon). 12/12 after clones develop roots, no veg. Finished height is about 12-18". 2x 250w hps lights. Yield per bucket has been slightly under 100g, but I've recently made...

    Good cabinet for mother?

    I ended up buyin something different, but similar. My main issue here was stealth, its tough to make a grow tent look like something that belongs in a bedroom. I got a computer armoire that looks like a warddrobe and assembled the inside empty. $175 after tax and it just looks like another piece...

    Sea of Green- frustrated, please help.

    Everyone hating on sog :P I'm runnin a sog setup and its not that much work, but then again im using hydro which cuts down dramatically on maintenance. i check on em maybe 4-5 times a week but i usually only have to top off the rez about twice a week.

    heat problem

    That's a cool little cab there. Maybe try using some WD-40 on the fan to have it run smoother. Other than that, some rubber between the fan casing and whatever it's resting on might help reduce vibrations. Some fans are just loud though.

    Do I Need Exhuast Cooling

    Ideal temps are around 75. Up to 80 is ok. Don't go over 85. If you're in that range you're ok. And don't use foil, it's not very reflective and some say it can cause hotspots that burn your plants. Whether or not that's true its still not reflective, even if it looks shiny. Mylar is best, but...
