I'm not sure how often NORML updates its state-by-state maps and I was curious what a real sentence would be like for someone growing a few plants in NY. Would you be sentenced/prosecuted under federal/state law, or by the local DEA in your county? Also, how do LEO's determine how much a plant...

I was wondering if people living in public housing, or housing subsidized by the gov't, are given the same rights as someone living in a private residence as far as needing a warrant to spy on a house/apt. In public housing/section 8, the gov't is your landlord and I know they would be willing...

Hi all, First and foremost I have four ladies under 600 watts, and this upcoming Monday will begin my 6th week of flowering. But I'm not here to even talk about my girls, rather what I noticed today... I heard a low flying helicopter and looked out my window... what do I see? A NYPD chopper...

I bought my Apollo Horticulture digital ballast in October and started my grow in November. Well today the ballast came on, running as usual - but the bulb refused to heat up past a faint glowing filament, occasionally flickering for a second then turning off. It does this every few minutes so...

I saw a pic my friend showed me and it looked like a calcium magnesium deficiency on steroids... I've done a little reading on the net and would like to know 1.) what this is, and 2.) how do I get rid of it? The local guy at my nursery just tried to get me to buy a ppm or ph reader at $70...

1 of these four plants is going to need to be transplanted, obviously I took care of the droopy tin can plant and repotted in the terra cotta beige pot and it's adapted rather well. A good watering did the trick for the drooping. I've uploaded pics in this first post 2 days old, since they show...

Here's my grow journal/update since I've posted about previous problems, one of which I still have, of my babies: day 2 of the largest plant which was tall and in a bustelo coffee can, the others were in jiffy peat cups. They are alive, but I know they can be doing better. Would should I be...

I have a lot to say, but first, my setup: - 63 x 30 x 30 tent - Apollo horticulture 600W ballast (dimmed to 450) running the blue spectrum (MH) 1 plant is an auto-flowering Moby Dick 1 plant is a Super Lemon Haze The other 2 are bag seed from a male or hermi plant, but it smelled and looked...

600watts but running on 450 now and my temps are at a consistent 81 degrees F. at 600 watts they were topping out at 95, but averaging 90.

So these pics were all taken tonight on day 16 since they first broke topsoil. Growing under a 600 watt MH setup (though I started them dimmed at 300w for the 1st week, then 450w a few days later, and have been on 600 now for 3 days). The brown ceramic pot is what I call flatbush... notice...

And I ain't lying. My fan, which was annoyingly loud, broke. Thankfully. I leave a few flaps half open and make sure all the vents are leading outward and open, so air could passively get inside my 63x30x30 grow tent. I'm using a 600watt MH right now dimmed to 450watts, made by Apollo...

So for those who don't know, my last baby grew really tall a few days after sprouting... then collapsed under her own weight. This time around, as you can see, the seedlings in the hot pod propagator are kind of bending. I thought of putting more dirt in the peat cups to help strengthen and...

How should I grow enough to actually do so!?!? How many plants would you squeeze into a 63 x 24 x 24 tent. That's 5'3 tall, or about the size of Danny Devito standing on 2 1/2 phone books.

Dear RIU, I'm working with an Apollo 600w switchable/dimmable digital ballast. I've just had my pineapple chunk die on me, she was good for about a week then collapsed under her own weight. I've included pics of her so maybe you all can help me determine what was the cause of death (some...

I live in a highly populated area, and who knows whats in the sky at any given moment... my question to you all is, do you believe that mylar tents (most which are light proof) really protect you from FLIR devices? I'm a little paranoid now... but the show must go on. Also, can FLIR detect...

I had trouble managing my humidity so I avoided planting... now my taproot is REALLY long and there's a little fuzz on it. Though it's not covered in it, I wanted to know if I should just toss this one or if there really is a chance at fruition :mrgreen: Thanks you all

Hi all, and thanks for answering my germination question yesterday. I've just received my thermometer today, so I can go ahead and start my grow (didn't want to jump the gun) but I'm having a problem I had the last time I tried a grow in a PC case: humidity doesn't seem to want to climb past...

I'm growing really impatient and want to know if you should wait until the tap root gets to a certain length. Thanks

I just got mine today, a 32x32x63 inch grow tent and I can smell the inside, though nothing is actually burning. I have a 600 watt MH light on an Apollo ballast. Thanks

Can having to many fans harm your plants? I had a heat problem with a CFL PC growcase I bought a year ago and want to make sure I have to much ventilation rather than not enough... unless too much air will really hurt my grow. Also, how much light is too much light for a grow area? Can a...
