    Is this a deficiency, a nute burn or something else?

    2 days into flower, i notice these ugly brown spots on some leaves including newer growth, plus some older leaves yellowing and dying off, could it be a cal-mag deficiency or is it something else? using fox farm nutes and soil

    bloom nutes when they show sex?

    i always thought bloom nutes were added as soon as you flip the switch to 12/12, but recently i've read some posts that suggest you add it as soon as sex shows. surely this can't be right? why would you add tiger bloom for example (i am using the fox farm tri-pack) when your plants are still in...

    Shes getting too big!!! Ok to bury the stem?

    Can you bury the stem of a plant with no adverse effects? Cause I have a plant that has grown too rapidly and the rest are playing catch up. I was thinking of burying the stem about a half a foot or more when I transplant next week, just so the canopy will be pretty even with the other girls who...

    Critique my clonebox (advice please)

    i have 12 clones sitting under this 42 watt cfl... they are in peat pellets as you can see, inside some plastic cups. i am a bit worried there is no condensation after they have been sitting there over an hour though. does this mean it is probably not humid enough inside and they will likely not...

    Help hanging CFLs in cabinet

    I am building a small veg cabinet for my clones. It's about 1.5x1.5x3 ft. I am using 42 watt cfls with y-splitters connected to a power strip. These cfls are pretty heavy but I think i can hold them with zip ties. Problem is I want to hang them horizontally on the side because I heard they give...

    air exchange at night

    i am a bit puzzled about how to do this. i understand air exchange is important for healthy plants. i run a 400cfm inline 24/7 at low-speed to do it. this has probably cost me a little more in electricity but i don't care if it gets the job done. i'm wondering if other people do the same with a...

    CAN Filter CFM Ratings?

    I am a little confused about the ratings listed for carbon filters on websites. My CAN filter has something called a "Maximum Exhaust CFM" which is 200cfm, and something called a "Max Recirculating/Scrubbing CFM" which is 400cfm. I have a 6" Inline Fan hooked up to a speed controller that's...

    selecting the right clones

    well i lucked out and 5 of my 6 plants turned out to be ladies. 2 ak's and 3 white widows. problem is that is too many for my personal grow. i would be happy with just 2 nice females, one of each strain, keeping them as mothers and taking clones off them. my question is what sort of...

    Hydrofarm Active Air inline fans

    Why do these fans have such useless mounting brackets? Anyone who owns one of these fans please tell me how you hung them safely. The mounting brackets fit very loose on my 6" fan and make me uncomfortable with using them to hang over my plants. It's like they give you screws that are too short...

    should i be paranoid?

    by chance i just happened to be looking out my window and spotted a black SUV with two guys in it (not parked, but coming out of an alley). i'm not good at making out models but it looked like one of those big american cars, maybe a Ford. anyways the scary part is it drove a full circle around...

    question about cooltube and passive intake system

    this is a really dumb question folks but exactly how do you arrange a cooltube, inline fan, and carbon filter together in, say, a 4x6 closet? i know where to exhaust the hot air (through a hole in the ceiling of said closet) and where to pull in the fresh air (through a couple small holes in the...
