You are not alone. I'm in San Jose and it's raining hard here too (6-3). I am amazed at how the weather is changing... Good luck to you!

Ask a thousand people and get a thousand different answers. Everyone has to find the method that works best for themselves. I have tried every method I have ever heard of. Most work just fine. The important thing to remember is MOIST not wet! I use "Rapid Rooter" plugs; buy them by the case...

Scooby... THANK YOU FOR POSTING THAT. Man I was also LMAO when I read that ventilation advice. I don't give advice as much as I would normally because I figure many others are more adept at it. After all, I have such limited experience since I have only been growing since 1974 and Indoors since...

Solar and Wind are way too costly in their set-up costs alone. Batteries are really expensive too... Hydro is the way IF and only if you have clean and legal access to the flow that is necessary. If you do, after your set-up costs (lowest of the three for sure) your energy is virtually free and...

Thank you for this... I have been harvesting this way for over 3 years, discovered it just like you did. I dry in my basement letting them hang for +/- 2 weeks. No mold or any other problems but I am in Northern California. I also don't cure "officially" either. I find that the trimmed buds in...

Thank you for taking the time to post this. Hopefully this is an isolated case. A while back I got the spider mite infestation from hell and certainly do not want a pathogen or anything else ever again. I had to completely kill off everything, wash and start all over again. Cost me about 2-3...

Good advice. My thoughts exactly. lights way too Hot and soil is too! I'd use CFL's for rooting and I,d use a very well aerated plain type soil with little to no nutrients at least until their growth takes off.

I grow via Hydroponics but my system is similar. I take cuttings and root them in my home made "Power Clone" machine to which they stay there for 1-2 weeks. I then plant the rooted "clones" into the pot they'll spend the balance of their life in. They Vegetate for 3-4 weeks, get introduced to...

Like Blackwater BUT BE CAREFUL of CALI seeds. I got 4 strains, 10 of each and 39 of the 40 turned out to be Hermies. This was between 3 growers so we ruled out that one's single mistakes forming a stress to produce the Hermie trait. Cali could care less and didn't do Jack $hit. ALSO, ALL the...

God, I feel for that man. You couldn't refuse the police wanting to go in and inspect. Too late. Shouldn't have called the cops.I live in that fear. I might have to sell my place and that would mean people coming to look at it. What the *&^% am I gonna' do with a medium sized operation and all...

Your Bloom looks like mine. I have the same Generator too. I have 4 plants per light fed by 600W hps on a light track (X8) so total is 32 plants under 4,800 Watts HPS. Looks good Bro', I like it. Thanks for the post...

DIY LED light fixture. Experimentate or just save some money... SO-o-o-o, you are interested in one of the newest lighting choices, LED, the latest offering for Horticulture lighting but are overwhelmed by their cost. The manufacturers have flooded the indoor gardener with a variety of claims...

************************************** Sorry to hear of your experience. This can happen to anyone that brings things into their growing environment. This is a matter of "He said, She said" and is too bad that it happened. You cannot say with 100% certainty that someone deliberately did a...

INHO, the seed stem's object is the start of the plant's life. It needs to get the nutrients from the earth and photosynthesis and distribute these to their respective areas. A cutting (clone) already is an established portion of an (adult) plant and therefore the need to get this to root is...

Yea, thank you pizzapuffer, I too, am a Sativa purist. Its getting harder and harder to find these (land race) because it seems like most people prefer the Hybrids that have more CBD's, etc. I prefer to do $hit after getting my morning buzz going. Couch lock is better suited to my night time...

I have used the splitter set-up for over a year and a half and see no strain as a result. All my lighting is run on 240V with contactors, except this single ballast. I don't see the advantage of using a contactor for a single ballast because a 240V timer is cheaper than a contactor (also need a...

Bring new life to your (old) magnetic ballast; replace the Capacitor with a new one. The transformr really doesn't wear, its the Cap. that does. We all should replace the Cap's. every 2 years anyway...

I could be wrong but I thought that reduced wattage did lengthen bulb life. Similar to the effect that a 130 volt bulb has. The bulb is rated for 130 volts but runs on 110-120 volts thus saving on the wear and tear from the undercurrent. If I am wrong in this, I apologize. I certainly don't mean...

You can, indeed, get MH in several spectrums. Again, Sun Pulse has four: 3.0, 4.0, 6.4 and 10.0 K and in 250, 400, 600, 750 and 1,000 Watts. They also offer 2.8 and 5.7 K in their 1,000 W commercial MH bulbs. Their 250W is not available in the 3.0K, but then again, who would be using this...

Ok, let's be friends... but I don't know who you are. Let me know what's up... Paul
