    Hey everyone! I'm wondering what wall outlets I need to get. I'm just using ordinary outlets. I have one outlet with 2 600 watt ballasts plugged in. Needless to say the outlets get very hot and tend to melt. I actually have the Ballasts plugged into a timer...

    Quick Hortilux question

    Everyone raves on Hortilux lighting so I figured I'd give it a shot. I found a very cheap, supposedly new, 400w hortilux on ebay for 45 bucks and figured it was a pretty darn good deal so I jumped on it. I'm curious as to why there is no yellow tint to it like all my other lights. it's white...

    help with tiny white flies

    I posted this earlier under problem with plants, and after about 110 views and no responses it disappeared. Maybe because I posted it in the wrong place? If a post gets deleted, does no one email you to tell you why? Strange. Any way let's try again. I have a DWC, pretty big plant. In about...

    Crazy thoughts

    Hey guys, Quick question. My DWC's have no ventilation to speak of, other than 6 fans. But no ducting as I can't drill holes. I had a few soil grows which actually came out pretty good, My last plant gave me 3 ounces which I was pretty happy with. But for some ungodly reason I decided to switch...

    Is this really big enough?

    Hey guys, I need your opinion here please. I just ordered a 50 dollar grow box from ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/150890770383?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619 The thing that sold me was that it said, (this unit will take you from seed to harvest). I don't see how this tiny thing could actually take 6...

    Will it ever flower?

    Hey guys!! This is only the 2nd girl (assuming it's even a girl) I've grown and she looks pretty sad. This is the 3rd week of flowering and I just wanted your opinion on whether or not you think she'll ever flower or is she a lost cause? How long does it normally take before you start noticing...

    Ready for harvest?

    Hello everyone! I'm not sure when to start chopping. This girl is in her 12th week of flowering and there are hardly any trichomes. This is my first grow and may have already ruined her. :( I read somewhere that when about 2/3 of the trichomes are red it's time to harvest. But if there are...
