    Question for Canadian Growers (Hydro bill tipping off police)

    So 2500-3000 kWh a month in electrical consumption will not, by itself, create suspicion? Anyone else out here use this amount or more without issue?

    Question for Canadian Growers (Hydro bill tipping off police)

    Just read this article: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/03/02/bc-fishgrowop.html Now, I live in the Toronto area where grow ops are not nearly as common as they are in BC, but this still got me thinking. My hydro bill is now up to 4500 kWh consumed over a 60 day...

    1000W HPS Bulb Buzzes When First Turned On

    My 1000w HPS bulb makes a pretty high pitched sound for maybe 30 seconds when first turned on, then becomes inaudible/quiet. My other 1000W tent doesn't do it and this bulb didn't used to. Is everything fine? I'm just worried about an electrical/fire risk. It's been doing this for weeks...

    Cheap alternative to Sensibloom?

    When I first started growing (in my second grow now) I purchased a bunch of AN's products. It's my understanding now that this line is overpriced and primarily just about marketing. I am almost out of my Sensibloom A & B but I still have a bunch of AN products that I am going to keep using...

    Did I Wreck My Cannabutter?

    Okay. I will eat some tomorrow, after I do some more filtration, and let everyone know if it was potent for posterity. Any other feedback is also appreciated.

    Did I Wreck My Cannabutter?

    Making my first batch of cannabutter from trim/popcorn buds. I mixed butter, pot and water in a mason jar and then let the jars float ever so lightly in a pot of water. The guide I used said the water should be simmering. So I had a decent amount of bubbilng, but not vigorously. The element...

    Top seedling at what height / are these strains receptive to topping?

    I am just about to wrap up my first grow, which was 5 Chronic by Serious Seed. I was told that this strain doesn't respond well to topping so I never topped. This go round I am growing four plants total (all feminized) and each is a different strain. Specifically, I'm growing Durban Poison...

    Do you include pot size when calculating height?

    Just wondering what the general practice is. Do people generally measure from the base of the pot or the base of the stem at the soil line?

    High humidity in early flower

    Thanks. I definitely have a TON of circulation. In addition to the fan sucking air in the room, which gets pulled out of the house by cross-breeze from another window I have open, the tent I grow in has a 450cfm inline fan recirculating the air every minute or so in the grow space. I will...

    High humidity in early flower

    Hey everyone. I'm in the middle of my first grow. I cool the grow room using outside air. I have a fan sitting on the window sill pulling in cold air, which is plugged into a wall socket that shuts the power off to the fan once it gets too cold and vice versa. It keeps the temp in a good...

    When to remove my cutting from aeroponic cloner?

    I am in the middle of my first attempt at cloning. I have three cuttings and they are all starting to show root bumps. It's Day 8 in the cloner. My question is how long should I wait before removing them? A pic of the ideal state they should be in before taking them out would be awesome...

    Question about LC's Soilless Mixes

    I use RO water with CalMagPlus. Sunshine #4 is about 60-70% Canadian sphangnum peat moss and 30-40% perlite. The mix also includes dolomite, but I have added some more as I am told there isn't enough dolomite to keep the pH stable throughout the cycle.

    Air Cooled Hood vs Cool Tube in Mylar Grow Tent

    I'm in the process of setting up a second tent so I can have a veg/mother chamber and a separate flowering area. In the first tent I have an air cooled hood. It works well but it eats up a lot of the vertical space. Now I've read a couple of air cooled hood vs cool tube threads and the...

    Question about LC's Soilless Mixes

    I'm using Sunshine #4, so not many nutrients in the soil. I did add worm castings to the mix, however, per the instructions in LC's Soilless Mix #2

    Question about LC's Soilless Mixes

    Been thinking about growing purely organic for awhile now. I have all the ingredients to make LC's Soilless Mix #2. My question pertains to the organic nutrients that can be added to the mix. In the post I'm following the author says to "choose one of these organic plant food recipes to add...
