    Miracle Gro Potting Mix?

    I've been using mostly straight Miracle grow Potting mix (some perlite and gypsum added) for 6 months now (on my perpetual grow, that would be about 18 harvests...) without any problems whatsoever. My plants do great in it, it's cheap, very easy to find and doesn't raise any red flags. Yes, I'm...

    Spider Mites - Help needed!

    I agree with grow plenty - Hot Shot Not Pest strips - about $8 at most hardware stores. It looks like an air freshener, but gives off bug-toxic vapor (not so good for you either). Use it for a few days with your cab/room all sealed up - no fans, no vents, no HID lights. Use or put in a couple of...

    Perpetual harvest cabinet - 2x 150w hps and cfls - Grapefruit Hash & Pineapple Chunk

    Please tell me all you can about Spidermites!! Rep ^^

    Hot Shot No Pest Strips - $8 at most hardware stores. Seal up the grow for 2 or 3 days with one of these - no vents, fans or HID lighting - use a few cfls to maintain the light cycle. Come back, vent well - the vapor isn't good for you. Seal up the Pest strip in a bag. No bugs. Just to be sure...

    Ozone, Ionizer, and Carbon Filters ++rep

    If you can find the right air purifier. I picked up one a few years ago that is actually a tiny ozone generator - tiny glass vial - like the size a perfume sample would be in - wrapped in SS screen, attached to a small transformer of some kind. Turn it on in the dark and you can see the blue...

    Harvesting every month

    I've got a seperate veg and flower spaces. Flower space holds 6 plants. Every 10 days I move 1 plant from veg to flower, at the same time take one plant out that is ready for harvest. Full details can be found in the link below...

    Harvesting every month

    As another example... I grow in soil, and have 6 plants in flower each 10 days apart for a total of 60 days under 300w of hps and some cfl. I haven't weighed a full harvest in a while, but I pull about 1.5oz every 10days. I've been tweeking the grow and should have it up to 2oz or more soon enough.

    Ventilation and Temperature Control - Please Help

    Should work - your small fan should work fine for the small space you have. You can play with the opening size on the Y by covering parts of it with tape. Even better would be to put one fan on the light, and the other for the grow. Put in some speed controllers and you can dial anything you...

    Perpetual harvest cabinet - 2x 150w hps and cfls - Grapefruit Hash & Pineapple Chunk

    So - I have a plan. Pineapple chunk was definately gonna outgrow if I keep her in veg another 10 day cycle. But so was Grapefruit. Since PC seems to def need more than 8 weeks, and not wanting to mess with my existing schedule, I came up with this... At the turn of the next cycle, Grapefruit...

    Cloning using peat pellets? Funky leaves?

    Should work, but idk. The gel seems too stick to the cutting well, even after putting it in water - at least if I don't shake or disturb it too much. I don't know how well the powder would cling after dipping. Though I hear neither is really needed - as long as you keep them warm and humid, they...

    Cloning using peat pellets? Funky leaves?

    The only time I've had really misshapen leaves was during over nute / ph problems. You can save yourself the trouble and skip the peat pellet altogether and just put the gel-dipped cutting into plain h2o. Keep it warm and you should see roots in 7-10 days. Plain water is nice 'cause you can...

    Show off your growroom!!!

    Here's mine - Flower chamber with dual 150w hps in DIY air cooled hoods, plus cfl and UV-B for spectrum variety. Clone and Veg chambers are fitted with cfls. I keep 6 plants in the flower chamber, each currently 10 day apart on a perpetual harvest cycle. For odor control, I've got a tiny ozone...

    4x4x6 grow room too cold with the lights off?

    Insulation? Rigid foam works well. I had to also put a small space heater for the coldest months - make sure to get one with an adjustable thermostat so you can set it around its lowest setting, keeping your space just warm enough...

    Perpetual harvest cabinet - 2x 150w hps and cfls - Grapefruit Hash & Pineapple Chunk

    I also found my first female pre-flower on Pineapple Chunk confirming it's a girl! woot!! So my original plan had her vegging another 10 day cycle after the current one flips this weekend. But she's put on a lot of new growth this week and I'm nervous she's gonna outgrow the space. I'm tying...
