    Zero rep?

    So the new system is such that some users can give rep of zero value? I have a few reps that gave me nothing. and 30 other users is a lot before being able to rep them again! some people consistently give good advice. they get penalized by that for sure.

    Outdoor water transport

    So you're tired of refilling gallon water bottles and throwing them into your backpack to schlep them out to your remote growing location? Me too. So I bought one of these: It's a solar camp shower, which I actually may use for its designated purpose someday. It's made of durable plastic...

    16k lumens HPS vs. CFL

    Drip Irrigation Frequency

    I've got a few two-footers in organic / perlite in 3G pots. I just set up a timed drip irrigation system to feed them, as I'm out of town for a week at a time. Q: I know how much water these plants need, but I generally watered them about every two days. Would it be better to set the drip...
