I disagree bricktop, seedlings that have been in 12/12 from the start, 3 weeks in can show decent growth but none of it is flowers. They grow vegetative growth, not calyxes. If they were capable of flowering immediately, after 2 weeks they would start forming calyxes because the hormones have...

Its easy and there are several DIY Colosseums on this site.... it takes some effort but not any more than building a regular grow room with ducting, cooling, lighting... and having shelves/steps already available helps. A soil Colosseum would be heavy, but still take less effort than a hydro setup.

For simplicity rather than 5 nights a week, someone could do less and 6 nights a week... 6 hours on 12 hours off (total of 6 28 hour days during the week). Every day, you would just shut off the lights 4 hours later. It wouldn't take as long as with a 21:36/12 cycle to reach the end of...

It's called a "Colosseum" and they are one of the most efficient yielding methods... there is no way to get more use from your lighting.

I must solve this dispute which has arisen in my own thread... a "herb" is various parts of a plant which is considered either for culinary, medicinal, or spiritual purposes. A "weed" is a plant that reproduces and grows aggressively. Foxcompany is correct to say it is an "herb", because to him...

Two problems with that... firstly, if you have plants on the ground and on the top... where do you have the ducting? lol Also, there is no light that forms behind the base of the light... the light is in the way so if the light is facing up or facing down, there will be some side that won't...

I USE 150 WATT HPS AT TIMES. I used to grow only one plant at a time. Take my word for it. Doesn't matter what anyone here is saying... this all depends. The CFL's can each get within an inch of multiple budsites (you can have 1 at the top and the other 4 close on each side). The 150watt HPS...

Just vent the damn 400watt HPS out the chimney. Its an easy exit and no one will see anything unless on FLIR and even that won't seem suspicious at all. A helicopter isn't going to wonder why there is heat exiting a chimney. Unless your house gets cold in the winter, venting into the floorboards...

"natural internal deodorizer and tissue healer" Lol... last time I knew my muscles, heart, and bones didn't smell bad. The crap people are allowed to sell :-(.

I've attempted the Hempy Method before... with MG Perlite. Perlite is MEANT to provide aeration and doesn't hold enough water... also the MG perlite has too many nutrients in my opinion. Use 3/6 MG potting soil, 1/6 MG perlite, and 2/6 vermiculite (holds water, makes the soil very spongey). The...

Have you ever even taken highschool biology? I would say that you really should get an education before you grow weed, especially since if you don't have one you don't have the intelligence to spare by frying your braincells... but it seems like too many fools grow it because that's their only...

And Rep to uriah for someone actually speaking sense, finally.

College level textbooks are just as prone to error as Wikipedia. And Wikipedia provides readily available material... only fools take everything from wiki as fact without confirmation but it provides 95% truth.

He's definitely wrong... plants revegged will start to preflower after some time. Also, preflowers noticably appear after a long time in veg, there can be no denying that either.

Lol, fdd2blk. You just earned yourself another unneeded and long owed Rep.

The switch to metal halide at the end of flowering is new to me, I only recently learned of it (but it isn't disputed). The only other things I can think of, are already pretty well known... 2 days of darkness at start of flowering to "jump-start" flowering. Flower nutrients 1 week after...

I agree, our interpretation of evolution may not always be accurate, but even the most confusing evolutionary development has some sort of comprehensible cause. I presume that since the pre-maturity phase helps to prevent genetic diseases from spreading throughout the population and early...

The flaw in that logic stoner 1984 is that after "puberty" the plant doesn't go into pre-puberty after being re-vegetated. It can always be forced to flower. It isn't the change of hormones that makes preflowers, it's the change to hormones that promote the growth of flowers. Preflowers start to...

No particular source, there was a lecture from a well known gentleman that touched the subject of evolution and I think mentioned something along the same lines (or at least many things similar). That was my own logic... but honestly evolution ALWAYS makes sense, when thought is put into it and...
