    Which grow tent brands to avoid?

    Thanks that was really informative. Other than amazon reviews there isn't a whole lot of indepth info like that. For anyone that cares I poked around on alibaba and talked with several manufacturers in china and even found some import records. Any out of left field offbrand companies (ie...

    Metal roof and condensation on the ceiling in winter.

    There are good DIY sites for insulating steel shipping containers and they definitely had condensation specific solutions. I'll try and find a link.

    Exhaust to attached garage/filters?

    Big space. Maybe use ozone and then vent that outside so it doesn't kill you.

    Which grow tent brands to avoid?

    Thanks in advance. I'm shopping the classifieds and they're everywhere so I need a sound off. Other than Gorilla what are some other trusted brands and which to avoid for sure? 1. Would prefer to avoid outgassing VOCs. 2. Shitty plastic corners and poles I can deal with. Mainly looking for...

    Newbie not in central

    Interesting. Ya, pics or another entry when you're really bored would be great. I'm surely not the only one who finds different set-ups fascinating.

    How are the pipes secured to the coolers? Silicone or PVC sealant?

    Having problems :(

    Get one of those cheap $5 aquarium PH testing kits as a backup in case the pens die or start acting weird.

    When to start giving nutrients?

    Give them a decent plain watering to bed them in the new pot and if they're big enough to need feeding start with a weak solution the next time around. I always use freshly mixed solution.

    City water report. Also, holy PH!

    Going to research them now but if someone could parse this 2016 report from the water department here to see how good or bad the water here is would appreciate it. Not sure what to look for. The 2017 report isn't listed yet but it seems they're in the process of switching from a chlorine gas...

    Advice Welcome - First Time Grower - Northern Lights - Indoor / Closet

    Thanks guys. I checked the fert analysis of the MG seed mix and it lists 0.03 - 0.03 - 0.03, so it's looking more like heat burn after all. Canopy temp is down to 82 from 96. Still working on it. The hydro shop and home depot here were both out of plain perlite but picked up a bag of ocean...

    Advice Welcome - First Time Grower - Northern Lights - Indoor / Closet

    Hey there. Rookie here. Back in 2007 I researched many hours here on RIU and geared up for a first grow which never happened. After coming across a 10 year old bag of feminized seeds which germinated I'm playing catch up with information and equipment which have definitely advanced some. Any...

    Weed and Airport security

    Someone on page 8 mentioned hiding it w/peanut butter/container... Probably a bad idea. I've been on international flights since 9/11, with peanut butter (& other food stuffs! haha). They can't Xray through peanut butter, so they open the containers and see/smell/swab it. They even opened a new...

    Electrical ???QUESTION???

    Depends on what the breaker is rated for... I'd guess maybe like 15 or 20 amps. Adding the 1000w could stress it, especially if you have a surge (or trip over wires lol ). Remember that a ballast pulls another few watts in addition to the light bulb itself. If anyone else wants to chime in...

    Cooking Faq/Stickies

    A FAQ or stickies in the cooking section would be killer! Maybe something with actual tried and true recipes. Everyone seems to have a different opinion on them which makes for an expensive trial and error. :weed:
