Thanks for the info there buddy. I appreciate you preventing me from doing something stupid.

So I have two lights, a 400w HPS and a 125w CFL for vegging. I have a multitude of plants in the same small room and wanted to know if I could run the 125w CFL 24/7 without it causing huge disruptions with the flowering cycle of my plants. I've read that you need CFLs really close to the plants...

Lowes and Home Depot are your friend man. They have reflective foil tape, insulation and materials to fill those gaps. But don't forget about air exchange/temperatures as you seal it up. Gotta be able to vent that box still.

Don't forget to watch your water temps if you're doing hydro. Also, I recommend ( probably more in the future ) an Arduino setup to monitor temps, humidity, light, etc. That way you reduce your interaction with the plants to a minimal.

Howdy there fellow growers! I've been on the forums before, however life got in the way and it's almost 2 years since I've posted. I recently got back into hydroponics as a full time hobby and grow/attempt to grow a variety of things. Currently I've got one random seed marijuana plant going...

I have the exact same thing. The only thing you need to watch out for is white fuzzy mold that sometimes pops up if it's too wet. Just use a small dash of Cinnamon if that happens. And don't water them at all for the first week after you puff up the pellets....

I was just watch KVUE and I about wanted to shit myself when they were talking about indoor growers and how people should be noisy and report their neighbors.... This shit needs to stop. I'm growing my own so I can stop funding Drug Cartels, Government Black Op and everyone else in between...

The Goodwills in Austin suck, try Craigslist and Salvation Army.

Here are some pictures from my current single soil plant grow.... There's also a pic of my little grow "lab" under the 150w HPS. I think in a week or so I'm going to need to move my plant over to the HPS because it's starting to puff out quite a bit. I also noticed an extra top or two forming...

So I finished up with my tea making and here's the results: 1 1/2 gallons of Willow Tea from 1 3/4 gallons of water Since I'm primarily using this on seedlings, I've got a good feeling about it.

Personally, I'm a cheap bastard, so I'd go for the Penetrator For the 1x1 use one those 13w LED bulbs, like this one: http://www.shop.sunshine-systems.com/product.sc?productId=11 or a panel like this: http://www.shop.sunshine-systems.com/product.sc?productId=1

I actually started my brew tonight. I threw all the sticks & twigs into a big pot, poured in about 1 3/4 gallons of tap water and brought it a boil slowly over the course of an hour or so. Now it's doing it's overnight soak. Now I just have to find some good subjects for a test grow between this...

Yeah so I figured I should setup a grow journal for not only myself ( tend to be forgetful ) but for everyone else as well. Allow me to introduce to you what my tools of the trade are: 150w HPS 5 23w CFLs ( 2 6500K & 3 2700K ) A 5 gallon tub for DWC A 2 gallon drip system Mediums: Coco, Soil...

Only one survived, but I think I got lucky and it's probably a female.... I'll be post pics here soon.

I've been reading about ( and was told by my local trusty hydro guy ) that willow tea is an excellent and cheap cloning solution. I went out today and chopped some willow branches about the size of twigs, but 1-2ft in length. I have a 1/2'' thick stick for good measure as well. I'd love to...

80 is a smidge high.... indoor plants seem to be favorable to 72-78. The small oval yellow spots are a result of touching the CFLs at some point. I've got a few of these "cigarette" burns on mine right now. Also, it kinda looks like the plants are stretching, try keeping the CFLs closer than the...

Home Security systems can bite you in the ass if the alarm is tripped and you don't respond quickly enough. I'd just recommend doing your best to prevent the maintanence folks from coming in by keeping up on all your stuff ( smoke alarm batteries/air condition filters/small repairs ). I'm...

Usually the only difference I've seen between strains & bagseed are the seeds. The seeds suck the THC outta the plant like no tomorrow. So I'm under the same impression that if you get a girl, treat her right, she'll do right by you.
