    Any tips on fix for squeaking 6" Inline Fan?

    Hi- I have a 6" Active Air Hydrofarm fan that is making noticably more noise than when I got it - it's possible this was caused by a bump while it was being moved . I've been happy with the fan for about 3 months, and I usually keep it turned down to 30-50% - it's venting a 600w cooltube and my...

    Is 5 gal extraction bag too big for a small amount of trim?

    Hi guys- First time processing trim and all they had at the local shop was the 5 gal GRO1 extraction bag 8 bag set. I had been hoping for the 1 gal because it was cheaper, and I also have a pretty small amount. I picked it up anyway. Is 5 gal too much for a small amount of trim? Its about 2...

    Vent 2 cool tubes with 1 400 cfm fan? (sketch of setup)

    Hi- Here's my setup: I have a 2x4x6 wardrobe closet. When assembled by the directions, it has two evenly divided chambers on the bottom and a shelf area on top. I will be switching the setup around down the road when I have more plants to fill up the flowering space; I will get rid of the...

    Transplant to larger pot?

    Hi- This LA Conf. has been vegged for 5 weeks in a 2 gal smartpot under a 150w HPS + CFLs. Space was limited or it would have been potted up earlier. The plan was to take clones and then put into flower, which was done 1 week ago. There isn't any stretch or new growth at the top which I...

    remove blue LED from humidifier?

    Hi- I'm using the CVS Ultrasonic portable humidifier, which works well for small spaces with a couple adjustments (rubber feet - it runs very quietly when not in contact with the floor) and also I need to get rid of the blue led that is constantly on. It's underwater - can I just pop it off or...

    When to start GO BOX nutes with Ocean Forest Soil?

    Hi- Just got the General Organics box. Been looking forward to it for a couple weeks. I have 2 plants at 10 days that just sprouted their second set of leaves. I germinated them in 4 oz cups in 60/40 Ocean Forest/Perlite. Everything is looking healthy. Normally I wouldn't do anything...

    Amount of Rapid Start for very small batch?

    Hi- I got a sample of Rapid Start from the local store, and I was really impressed with the results. Unfortunately, I knocked the bottle over. I only have a half tsp left. 2 questions: 1.) Does RS last awhile after being mixed with water? If so Ill just mix the rest and use it for the...

    Oops: do I need to flush these transplants right away?

    Note to self: Don't feed when you're in a rush. I added nutes too soon... I picked up Advanced Nutrients GMB today, and added to the soil at half strength to some newly transplanted clones. The label says start at week one of vegetative growth, but when I did further reading (after already...

    Can I take a cutting 5 days after switching to 12/12

    Hi- I know that a clone taken in flower will take much longer to root and that there is sometimes a decreased chance of success. I had a failed cloning experiment that I regret, and would like to take a 2-3 more clones from this plant. It's been in 12/12 for 5 days and a few white hairs are...

    Can I supercrop this again? (pic)

    I have an 5-week old indica that I have taken many cuttings from, and now I'm going to flower whats left. I'm switching to 12/12 tomorrow and I'd like to supercrop this plant one more time now that it's healed up for a little boost to the stem and to combat stretching. I'll do the higher...

    Heat Wave! Is it ok to take my plants outside for some sun?

    I have a 5 week old CH9 indica indoors under 10000 lumens daylight CFL that I've been taking outside during the day. I hardened it off and it can be in full sun with no signs of stress. I have about 2 weeks where I will have enough privacy to keep doing this - because the plant has been loving...

    Can I root directly in willow water?

    I have 5 cuttings soaking in willow water (for it's use as a rooting hormone, go here if you aren't familiar: http://www.bluestem.ca/willow-article1.htm. I was going to leave them in for 12 hours to absorb the willow water, and then move 3 to soil and 2 to pure water, all under a dome. I'm...

    Supercrop potential clones?

    I have a mature CH9 mystery indica under 7000 lumens of daylight CFL. I am treating her as a mother until I get new genetics, at which point I will flower her. I am using supercropping to promote bushing as I am focusing on 4-5 potential clones below the 4th node. I just did a heavy...

    How much will a windowscreen decrease my light?

    I grow indoors but I have a good chunk of the day when I have some privacy and can move the plants outdoors. I hardened them up first and they absolutely love that sun - at twice the growth I see in my veg box. I live on a patch of land where all the refugee animals that have been pushed out...

    Can I get around heating pad auto-shutoff?

    I'd like to use an old heating pad for a cloning root mat. Commercial versions are $30-40 near me - generally affordable except I'm saving every penny I can for an HPS/MH light. My questions are: 1.) The pad has an auto shut-off on a 30-min timer. Can I bypass this by opening the control...

    Need a Post-Mortem on disappointing grow - Maybe transplant problem?

    I just made my first (really disappointing) harvest that seems to have gone wrong in the transplant stage. The plants - CH9 Jack and CH9 Cluster looked healthy but very stunted - they only grew to about a foot (I did some LST, not sure how tall they would have been if I left them alone.) I...

    Will I stress my AFs by changing their light cycle back to 18/6?

    Hi- I was growing in limited space and threw 2 Afghan Kushes into my box which was already on 12/12. I knew they wouldn't yield as much in 12/12, and I didn't have high expectations, just wanted to add them to the grow and hope for the best. They grew very compact, but are healthy, have lots...

    Better for young plants: Windowsill or 6000 lumens CFL

    Hi- I am stuck temporarily with 5 plants in solo cups. I will be moving them into my new stealthy dresser in 1 week. IMO, it's not really long enough to justify setting up a Rubbermaid etc... and even the $15 to do that would be a hardship because I just scraped by to pay f/l/sec on the new...

    Back after a long break, but...

    Hey everyone- I just finished an 18 month break from smoking, after 10 years of being high every day. I took a break because I didn't have money or good connections and I was tired of feeling like a 'weed-addict'. I'm glad I spent some time away from it, but it's time to get baked again...
