    I was concerned that 3x/day might be too much, glad I asked. I've also read that rockwool is not ph neutral. Is that true, and if so, what should I do about it?

    Carbon filter Vs. ozone generator

    I'm about to start my first grow on two 4x4 flood tables under three 600w HPS. My room is 10x12x8 and after visiting the Can website found I would need a 6" HO fan paired with a Can 66 filter. The hydro shop didn't have a 6" fan so he gave me a 8" HO and Can 75 for the same price. IT IS LOUD AS...

    Do I need pots in a SOG?

    Attached is a closeup of one of the trays. Should I put the clay pellets directly into the tray, or should I put down a coco mat first to prevent the pellets from fouling the channels and impeding drainage?

    Do I need pots in a SOG?

    But, dude, check and see if the panel is one leg or two. If its 2 then you have what you need right there in the garage. And single pole panels are not commonplace. Do you have a voltmeter? Open the panel and put one probe on each breaker, if you read 240v your all set. Again, this is assuming a...

    A voltage transformer raises or lowers voltage. Your thermostat uses 18 or 24 VAC, so 120v is fed into a low voltage transformer, and 18v comes out. Utilities use high voltage transformer. Have you ever wondered how the utility can power you entire neighborhood off those skinny lines on the...
