    Soil grow ,ph up and down, soil ph HELP

    Are your plants looking healthy? If so its fine. You should also check the EC of your nutes/water and run off to see if there is any buildup of salts. I believe you want the first few ounces of water from the drip to get somewhat accurate reading. Maybe wrong though FYI.

    Interesting stuff. I'm not an expert but wouldn't a wick system be a little easier?

    Grrr, Fuck!!! Two light cooltube still hits 95

    Do not buy cheap inline fans. Invest in a Can or Vortex and you'll be happy. Valueline and cheap ones make lots of noise and have inflated cfm advertisments

    Ultimate grow room for 15 amps

    Do not run extension cords to power lights or any other large load. You're asking for fire otherwise. Also the electrical for your house should be mapped out at the panel which allows you to plan your grow. The bathroom comment about how you have 25 amps doesn't make sense. These loads will be...

    how are you supposed to flush soil plants in a grow tent??

    Easy. Get rectangular black greenhouse trays, milk crates and a little wedge for one side to prop it up so water flows to one side. On the lower side make holes and get a bucket to put under the holes.

    Leaves slowly turning yellow?

    You need proper lighting. Those bulbs may not have the proper spectrum.

    Is this light safe to use?

    How old is that current bulb. You should replace it. It's only meant to use under proper condition... a split along the base is not what I consider proper.

    With soil-less don't you want the same pH as hydro grows?

    Diesel Ryder, crazy genetics?

    I am under the impression that you want hydro pH levels with sunshine mix because it is soilless.

    does my room really need to be 100% lightproof?

    Most likely your females are pollinated and will begin producing seeds. You can also pick off the sacks from the hermie to reduce amount of pollen or chances of pollination (though some argue its futile and you should indeed cull males and hermies).

    Diesel Ryder, crazy genetics?

    Thanks for the reply. What do you think worst case scenario would be? Will it flower eventually?

    Diesel Ryder, crazy genetics?

    Hi Folks, I've had this Diesel Ryder since March 3rd (when it sprouted). It is currently 18" tall. No pre-flower signs. Funny thing is that I dropped a purple ryder which sprouted about March 17th and it's already flowering. First started underneath some sunblaster t5ho. moved up to 250w hps...

    Grow box set up?

    Well... Now you're just replacing the tote with a gutted speaker, no? That dude that told you to build a DIY type tent with PVC and poly gave you that advice and it's pretty solid. Ditch the totes and speaker cases n do it right. Unless stealth is a major concern in which case you should rethink.

    "Miracle-Gro want's into the pot trade"

    At the end of the day I think people who spend real money in this market will continue to avoid MG. The reference to RIU seems out of place.

    Using a Uninteruptable Power Supply (UPS) small grow?

    Hey folks I'm looking for information about whether I can use a UPS (lets say 600w) with a 250w hps digital ballast and timers for fan. It's a cabinet grow within a metal cab and I thought the 3-prong plug would ground the cabinet? I found this post on grasscity...
