    When to supercrop?

    I had read about supercropping in the growfaq, but he doesn't mention when to do it, when do you guys think is best? Also, how hard to you actually apply the pressure? Do they always droop immediately after applying the pressure or does it take some time? Gave a few tries so far, but no...

    A few questions about lightmovers

    I'm curious how effective they are for growth? Would you see significant changes in going from 4 lights (all same size/wattage) stationary over the setup, to 2 of those lights with a lightmover? I'm pretty sure 4 lights is obviously more bud, but about how much less? Also how much...

    What is the best/fastest cloning method?

    So i've tried making the "cheap-o-aero" cloner, i've tried the rapid rooter method as well, and both seem to take over 2 weeks for roots to show. I've seen many people on the forums talk about how it takes them 4 days to a week to start seeing roots and i'm just wondering what I'm doing wrong...

    Weak points at trunk of plant stem

    I'm having issues with these General Hydroponics Waterfarm setup. Every single plant in the setup has developed weak points at the base of each steam above the roots right where the top of the hydroton rocks stops. I"m pretty certain it's due to moisture as I can feel them and they are wet, and...

    Is using a dehumidifier for drying?

    I was wondering if using a dehumidifier in the room you're drying in is a good idea? I would imagine pulling as much moisture from the area as possible would be good, but is it a cost effective method to reduce the time?

    How dark should the room be kept while lights are off?

    I'm curious what is considered dark enough for the night cycle of cannabis life? My room is completely dark with the exception of a few LED's that are on various power buttons for fans and power strips. Will these small LED's be enough to cause light issues? Even with those in the room I still...

    Anyone heard of/used "Block-Infrared" material?

    I was talking with a guy at the local grow shop and he showed me a new catalog he got in "custom automated products" and went straight to the back where they had an ad for some clothlike material called Block IR. The material supposedly can block out any infrared light, making helicopter scans...

    Advice on carbon scrubbers please!

    I have the opportunity to use a friends large sized carbon scrubber and save myself 500 on having to purchase one and a fan.

    What do you guys do with all the extra plant material?

    I'm just curious what everyone does with the extra materials from the plants? Such as large males, mothers that need to be taken down, deformed/dead plants? I'm a bit nervous to just throw it out in the garbage, and I don't want to run it anywhere myself. I was considering drying them out and...

    Spider mites

    So I recently just put my clones into an aero system, about 7 days ago. The other night I saw what I thought was just a small spider in the room making a string down from the ceiling. Thinking nothing of it, I killed it and thought that was it. Then last night I saw another little tiny white...

    aero cloning questions...

    So I've built myself two versions of aero cloners using a few bubble wands, air pumps, heater, and thermometer and I think I'm ready to go.
