Roots generally don't like light--it can turn them brown, allow algae to grow on them, and eventually cause root rot which will kill the plant when it can no longer get nutrients to supply the plant. In hydro grows, it is best to keep the plant lights from getting into the reservoir where...

Well, good news. After I went with new liquids and just a pinch (one 1/2 - one 5/8 tsp epson salt in the entire 6 gallon resv), the plants look much better today. Here is the same plant that was in the first photo I posted. Slightly different angle, but the yellow has been crowded out by the...

Oh, you have got to be kidding me. On your plant, the new growth is as yellow as mine while the veins around it are dark green? Just for the record, I looked at every Auto Lemon Skunk thread I could find last night and didn't spot this trait mentioned. Also, I failed to notice this coloring...

I'm hoping someone can confirm my diagnosis and suggest where to go from here. My young Automatic Lemon Skunks show yellow on the youngest growth--it is most evident nearest to the stem on the youngest leaves. The veins maintain a green color. Background: bubbleponics grow in an 8-10...

On your first grow I would opt for a cheaper (non-fem) seed just while you figure things out. The last thing you want is to buy the exp. seeds and have your first indoor grow go down in flames if you missed one step (hot lights, poor ventilation, PH levels, etc.) It's a harder loss if your...

I've never done any scientific tests (3 grows at the same time/temp with different light cycles) but I would really hesitate going over 20 hours of light. I once did an 18/6 grow at the same time as a 20/4 grow and really couldn't see a difference, so I tend to stick to 18/6 (but do 19/5 early...

I never add ice to the reservoir, but will add chilled water. I usually keep 16oz bottles in the fridge and will add 1-2 a day depending on the weather. I haven't proven anything with a study (chilled water versus none) but the plants have seemed happy. Cold and hot temps will stress roots...

Always leave it set to 2.

And you just followed the "X tsp/tbl per 1 gallon of liquid" schedule from their directions? The reason I ask is I've read some have underfed the plants in the early stages and I did see that their schedule introduces nutrients early. Thanks for any tips.

Thanks everyone. These are some good suggestions.

No, I think they would just take your rockets and at worst you would have to pay a $50 fine. It's more the idea that you can't light off a couple of items just after dark to celebrate our country. Oh well.

Thanks for the post, but just so everyone knows, I haven't gotten high in a good 7 years. I'm getting back into the hobby as I hope it can help. I have had prescriptions for sleep aids, but they all seem to have side effects from bleary morning to over the counter meds which seem to wake me up...

I have problems falling asleep sometimes (brain racing) and other times I will fall asleep just fine and wake up two hours later with the brain racing and anxiety dreams. Can anyone advise on a good strain that will shut down my body for sleep but not let me get so couch locked that I would not...

So I'm sitting on my balcony tonight listening to the fireworks and suddenly flashed back to a couple of episodes where the police came when I was lighting off fireworks: 1) A friend of mine and me are both in our teens and lighting off some firecrackers/bottle rockets (when you're in you...

For future reference, Amazon ships just about everything in plain brown boxes. My aerogarden was shipped from them in a plain brown box.

Look at the top back of the hood and you'll see some vent slits. There is a small circle vent here with a plastic tab--this tab locks the light hood to the pole. Use a screwdriver to release the hood and lift it off the light pole. It is easy if you have a friend to help as one person can...
