I'm currently running a 400w HPS in a small grow room...roughly 2' x 4'. In order to cool the plants, I'm running an A/C system with the intake attached to my reflector. It works great, but it's getting very expensive and I need an alternative method. Here are my questions: Do I need just an...

I just picked up a clone of blue dream and threw it under my lights on an 18/6 light schedule. Unfortunately, under closer examination, it looks like the blue dream has already begun flowering. I see little hairs coming out that are already brown. The clone is only a few weeks old and only...

Hopefully I can answer your question....I live in Los Angeles. The current eletric rates are divided into two seasons....Summer (June - Sept) and Winter (Oct - May). The Winter rates are locked at 12.36 cents per kwh. The Summer rates range from 12.36 to 17.34 cents per kwh, depending on...

Check this guy out.... It's Pre-98 Bubba.....4 weeks into flowering. I vegged it under CFL's then switched to 400w HPS for flowering. It didn't get much light under the CFL's....so that's probably why the growth is so stunted. It's about 7-8 inches tall and looks amazing. The leaves are...

It all depends on how much space you have and how many plants you want to grow. If your planning on growing a plant or two...then a CFL (Compact Flourscent Light) system would do just fine. You'll probably need around 100-200 watts of light to grow them nicely....but remember this....you can...

Hey Smoked Out, HTG Supply is a very popular website amongst people on Roll It Up. They sell Ballast/Reflector/Bulb Kits that will be perfect for you. They have kits that run anywhere from $80 bucks to $300 bucks. If your plannning on growing just one plant...then a 150w HPS system would...

Interesting method gavmac3777...I might try that. Where can I buy a smoke bomb or "fogger"? Will it hurt my plants? The pyretheum-based spray I put on my soil worked very well yesterday......but this morning I awoke to another infestation....they were back!!!! I can't tell if the spray...

Thank you everyone for your advice and assistance. I was afraid to sit around and wait for the problem to get worse...so I ventured to my nearest garden center and picked up a bottle of insect control spray that utilizes pyrethrum as its main ingredient. It's suppossed to be all-organic and...

Thanks for the info! Very helpful.

My six plants have begun their second week of flowering and a gnat infestation has recently taken over the area. The gnats used to be a small problem, but now they've multiplied like crazy and their on every plant and everywhere. I can see tons of them coming out from the bottom of my pots and...

Thanks for the info.

My plant is approaching 2 feet tall and has begun to flower. But the new leaves aren't quite as perky as before... Should I cut the lower fan leaves to promote growth to the new leaves? Also, what's the difference between sun leaves and fan leaves? Thanks!!!

I have a sun system yieldmaster reflector w/ a glass screen that keeps some of the heat away from the plants.... I need to install a proper exhaust system that hooks up to my 6" flange on the reflector

Cuz I'm a newbie...this is my first grow....should I keep the 12/12 schedule?? The pics I posted make the plant color look much better than it actually is....it's much more yellow...

I'm not sure what's wrong with my plant....but it seems to be happening quickly and to all of my plants. Instead of the healthy dark green leaves that cover the bottom of my plant, the new forming leaves are yellow, droopy, and rigid. I recently started using a very small dosage of Fox Farms Veg...

Thanks! Is a ppm meter very important to have?

I was looking into buying a digital ph meter and I saw that Hanna was the most popular brand around here. I happened to see this one on ebay for $28 bucks and free shipping. Is it any good? Or would I be wasting my money... Thanks for the help...

What's up my peeps!

From my own personal experience......White Widow & Green Crack have grown very quickly and easily. They don't require much attention and they withstand alot of abuse. As far as flowering quickly....Pre-98' Bubba was a quick flower for me.

I was debating between the 250w HPS and 400w HPS Grow System too. I'm also growing 6 plants and the size of my grow space (a closet) is very simiiar to yours. In the end, I chose the 400w HPS System because I wanted my plants to get enough light. It's been almost a week with the new...
