Hey any comments would be appreciated. I had one of those large tubs you buy from walmart to store things in and they also come with a lid. It probably would take a little over 3 5 gallon buckets of soil mix to fill tub. I had 5 plants growing in this tub that I vegged for about 10 weeks and...

I know I have read quite a bit in regard to temperatures of the indoor grow room and what is ideal for flowering. My question is when they say anything above 90f is bad are they measuring ambient temps of room or at the tops of the plants? You always hear keep the light as close as possible...

My temps stay around 92 Degrees in my area and they seem to be doing just fine in the vegetative stage week 4. When they say keep temps down below 90 are they speaking of the temp at the tops of the plants or the ambient temp of the room itself. The ambient temp is around 79-80. The temp over...

If I use 2 inline duct (250cfm each) fans in the same exhaust run does that mean I am moving 500cfm of air or do I need to have them seperated with 2 seperate runs? Im trying to get the best performance to exhaust air from my grow area.

I was 7 weeks into flower and had landlord call and give 15 minute notice that he was coming through to do inspection of property as we are moving into new home. My other half freaked out and chopped the three very beautiful ladies we had so I obviously have premature buds. They were coated in...

I have 4 rhino plants in soil that are 6 weeks and are only 3-4 inches tall. They are nice and green with new growth consistently however the bottom growth turns yellow and dry then falls off so they are consistently losing leaves. Is this normal? Shouldnt the bottom leaves remain? I am using...

I have one w. rhino and three bagseed plants growing under CFL's. I am mixing flowering and veg rated bulbs with each plant over 200 watts. They are five weeks old and are only three inches tall but have multiple leaves and are very healthy looking. The soil is Sta-Rite for flower/veg with...

I have 2 plants from bagseed and one that is a seed found in some White Rhino I had. The 2 bagseed plants are in rubbermaid tub with 270 watts of cfl's over them in home made light with reflector. The soil is Sta-Rite for vegetables and flowers and I believe it has some nitrogen added in the...

Hey everybody just want to say thanks for all the help so far. I found a seed in bag of rhino I bought so I germed and then planted into Large pot. (4 gallon) It has sprouted and is aprox 3 inches in height and is nice and green. I used some soil I bought from Lowes and it has no nutes but some...

This is probably a stupid question but is it possible to clone from male plant with the possibility of ending up with female? Is there any good use for male plant other than pollination? Can you cut the male reproductive portion of the plant and still produce bud? Any input would be appreciated...

I started out germing 8 bag seeds and then starting them in solo cups with miracle grow soil. I know stupid decision on miracle grow but it was prior to me finding this site. They did so well then at 14 days they started turning yellow with brown edges outer of leafs. I decided to transplant to...

Can anyone tell me what might cause the outer edges of the leaves to turn brown and slight yellow discoloration. Im using CFL's and miracle grow soil. They are 14 days old from sprouting out of soil in solo cups. They looked great and in the last 48 hours this has started to happen. Its my first...

I have been searching for the proper CFL's to purchase for grow (6500k veg and 2700k Flower) however the ones you see in Home Depot or Lowes are rated daylight bulbs but do not say 6500k on box. The Lumen rating is much less on box. All of the 20-26 Watt CFL's are much lower lumen rating on box...

All of the CFL bulbs I saw at Lowe's that were 20-26watt were 1600-1750 lumens. Can I use say 4 of these to total close to 6500 lumens for veg or can I find 6500 20watt bulbs? I'm trying to stick with Lowes or Home Depot until I get more funds.
