3000K T5 fluorescent bulbs produce a Red/Orange spectrum for budding and flowering (similar to HPS). How do these bulbs stack up against HPS in terms of flower growth? This is what I know so far... *The T5's save on energy per lumen. *The T5's run much, much cooler. *The T5's cover more...

These are 12 days into flower, and I let the light get too close today. The leaves are burned pretty bad, but all the bud sites still look good. How will this affect my yield?

Heres a pic. They are white widow... vegged them for 4 weeks... now they are on day 9 of flower. Using 400w hps, 12/12 lighting, and tiger bloom/big bloom for nutes. They don't seem to want to bloom. I was able to determine sex on all of them after only 5 or 6 days... but all I have is a few...

I have three white widows that are 7 days into flowering. All they have are a few random (and very small) preflowers with hairs on them... I really have to look hard to find them. Does this sound right, or should they be more developed at 7 days in? BTW I started with 5 plants... had to toss...

I'm currently in week 3 of veg, and plan on forcing flower when my plants are approximately 18" tall. But, I have a question to all you experienced growers. Does tying down the branches always produce a bigger yield. I have plenty of head room btw... about 7-8 feet, so space isnt a problem, but...

How they lookin?

I tried to take a picture, but my camera won't focus on something this small. It is a tiny winged bug, looks like a whitefly but its kinda brown in color. They like to sit on the leaves of my plants. It seems there's 2 or 3 every day, so I just smoosh them (They are easy to pin down.) I...

What caused the yellowing... It is 10 days old. Soil is Ocean forest / Perlite (50/50 mixed).... it is lightly watered every day. It wasn't yellow until this morning.

I have Fox Farms Big Bloom, but I'm not sure when to start using it. I'm two weeks into veg, and I think maybe I should start to fertilize soon. Soil is Ocean Forest mixed 50/50 with perlite, so it is an extremely light and airy mix. If I could do it over again, I would not have used so much...

My plants are two weeks into veg, and one of them is growing out of the soil at less than a 45 degree angle... this thing is really leaning. I'm pulling the plant straight with some string attached to the side of the pot. Did I do the right thing?

I'm trying to decide when to switch over to flowering. I have a 400w metal halide bulb with a decent reflector, and some mylar on the walls. I have 5 white widow plants, and I want to maximize the 400 watts without going overboard (I don't want the plants to get so big that the light can't...

I have 5 white widow plants which I'm growing indoors, they are about 2 weeks into veg and I noticed that my grow room had a slightly skunky aroma, so I investigated. I smelled each of the plants up close, and only one of them is giving off a scent. The other four plants are completely free of...

If I have a healthy white widow plant, and it is 30" tall when flowering begins, approximately what will my dry yield be? I know there are a lot of contributing factors that would lead to different answers, but I'm just looking for a ballpark number. Strain: White Widow. Seeds: Seedbank Light...

Wondering if anybody knows how long I'll have to veg before my girls hit 30" ? Strain: White Widow Lighting: 400W metal halide (18 on /6 off) Soil: Fox Farm Ocean Forest / Perlite (50/50 mix) Fertilizer: Fox Farm Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom. Co2: Milk jugs with water/sugar/yeast. Temp: 80-85F...

I'm germinating 5 seeds in the soil that they're going to grow in, as I don't plan on transplanting them at all. The temperature here at home has been getting into the 50's at night, and was only 68 at noon today, so while I was home on my lunch break I turned on my 400W metal halide lamp to...

Hey, i'm new here. What's up everybody! I've been shopping around for a grow light setup, and so far I have found this: http://www.specialty-lights.com/400gpsss.html My question is... Is it a good deal, or is there something better/ cheaper out there? I'm looking for it to be HPS & MH...
