ok I will start this thread with my germination technique (which has been 100% successful so far) for newbies curious about germination, then end the thread with my newbie questions. Germination- I use a combination of the soaking technique, and the paper towel technique with a heat mat...

I use it. Its alright, nothing you necessarily need unless your in a cold climate (which I am). You do need some way to trap humidity around your clones for their first week of life. However there is a billion other ways to do it without this set up. The heat mat is useless unless your...

Aaaaa nvm looked it up... Seems like you would get netted up walking around your grow room.

Panda? What is that?

What you guys are saying is not necessarily contradictory. He says 2-3 weeks maybe because it takes him that long to get 3" of lights. You may be able to achieve these results faster. Who knows?

MG definitely has brutal nutes in any of its products. Most growers are very prissy about using MG. However I love miracle grow for plants I intent on making mothers. Not so much for plants I plan on smoking. You might want to try picking up General Hydroponic's Go Box. Its 30 bucks for...

First of all, whoever told you ANY nutrients was an idiot. Slow down the watering a little bit, and make sure your CFL is Full Spectrum, as in 6700K . Also you can do your plant a service by running a fan nearby to move the hot air away from it. Also if it is your first grow, do yourself a...

My grow rooms is carpeted, and I'm looking to cover it up without removing the carpet. I was thinking of just covering the floor in plywood then stapling silver tarp to the plywood. Any have any other suggestions for something that might be easy, and cheap? Thanks!

do you use r/o water or just regular water?

I use a 27 watt T5 tube fluorescent. Shave and split the bottoms.

I cut from a healthy mother. Usually clones about 4 to 6 inches tall, trim them down to about 3 leaves. Dip them in Rootech then plant them about an inch down in the little Root Riot cubes. I have tried with, and without the humidity dome with no success. Tried humidity ranges between 60 and...

Alright placed an order for Hydroponic Lamp 225 LED Grow light Panel Red Blue 110 V. As soon as I get it set up I will be posting a comparative journal on the effectiveness of LEDs when used for seedlings. Thanks for the advice!

I was thinking of starting off with something real cheap, just to see if they even really work. http://www.amazon.com/LED-Wholesalers-2501MX-Square-Light/dp/B001MVWYZA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317762944&sr=8-1 Logically if a PoS fluorescent shop light will work with some tubes designed for a...

Before you flame, yes I did cool and forum search it. There is alot of discussion about whether or not they are good for adult grow plant cycles however there is little to none about young plant growth. I am happy with MH, and HPS for my adult plants, and don't intent on switching. However...

yeah made the nute mistake once already :P I have been using rockwool to sprout though (after taproot comes out), and as soon as a transplant (clones or sprouts) the shock is immense. My clones teeter on the brink of death before recovering. So I'm looking for a way to reduce the shock their...

To prevent shock I am considering using the plastic cup technique with happy frog soil (the soil I use for mature plants) to germinate seeds. However I think their is a small amount of organic fertilizer in the soil. Any soil growers have any advice on how this might work out? Thanks for...

So I don't have money for any CO2 enrichers so I figured maybe sparkling water might work. I picked up a bottle of low sodium Canada Dry Club Soda. For the young plants a plan on spraying the surfaces AROUND the plants, and not the plants at all. For the larger plants the idea is the same...

Actually I was talking to my botany professor about this like 2 days ago. Contrary to popular belief clones of the right clones suffer no genetic loss. As the plant regenerates itself it actually experiences similar gene dispersions during cellular reproduction as it would during sexual...

An is good stuff but not at all worth the price.

Thanks for the advice. So they can probably go a solid 3 days without being watered/fed? Then hit with about 600mL water, and maybe around 100mL feed solution?
