    What are the properties of a good extraction tube?

    I'm also wondering about diameter vs length, and if that makes a big difference.

    What are the properties of a good extraction tube?

    I thought about that, but most of the professional ones I've seen were stainless, so I figured seeing the process wasn't that important.

    What are the properties of a good extraction tube?

    I've been making bubble hash with my trim, but wanted to try my hand at some shatter. I know I can buy glass tubes, but I'm a welder/fabricator by day and wanted to make my own. I've seen plenty of diy ones, and came across a thread here about trying to use a butane can, and someone mentioning...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    You have a lot of reinforcement there. I'm just looking at it from a price point of view. You wouldn't need that many bars going across of you used thicker material. Like I mentioned before, I'm a welder and a fabricator, so this is right up my alley, and I'm just throwing out some info to save...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    I don't know how big you guys are making your frames, but I made one 600W setup with two 300W kits and 1/16" angle would have been way too flimsy. I used 3/4 x 1/16 channel, which is more rigid, but I would have preferred 1/8" angle. It's still a little flimsy with the channel.

    That's even more steep! I guess you are paying for convenience at these big hardware stores.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    I don't know off hand, but I know it's pricey compared to how much out should cost from a metal supplier. I'm a welder by trade so have some experience sourcing metal. You'd be a lot better off buying a full length stick of the aluminum angle from a large metal supplier. Even if you don't have a...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    I got mine as a kit and already had solid wire. I had to relocate one of the wires because of length issues when I was arranging them, and I couldn't figure out how to get it out. They are dual sided slots, so you can slide the wire in either side. I tried giving it a little tug, but I'm 6'3"...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Do you happen to know how to get them out of the connector? I need to make some dimension adjustments to my frame and would rather be able to completely disconnect the lights from it when I do it.

    What's the proper way to use this hash pipe?

    I have no idea what it's called, which is why I had a tough time trying to look it up and finally had to post here. It didn't work so good with the lighter haha. It just bubbled and barely smoked. I have some titanium welding rod I could probably use as a nail I guess.

    What's the proper way to use this hash pipe?

    I normally just throw some hash on top of a packed bowl of bud, but made some of my own and decided to get a specific pipe for it. I bought this one because it was cheap. I'm just wondering if this is intended to get the bowl cherried to burn the hash, or just stuff it in there and try to get it...

    Anyone else clone with only tap water?

    I was thinking this. My buddy has been doing it about 7 years now, and I just noticed a post on this, and he's already broke down ingredients for of the shelf nutes, so we buy the big bags of nutes and mix it up ourselves. It looks to be about a tenth of the price of buying the off the shelf...

    Anyone else clone with only tap water?

    I've heard and seen first hand that thinner, newer growth cuttings also root faster. I'm usually waiting on the thickest clones the longest.

    Anyone else clone with only tap water?

    Ive actually done that twice, but only about 200ppm, and it was because I was waiting on some thicker cuttings to catch up with the rest on one, and waiting for the slower strand to catch up another time, so just getting some nutes to the further along ones so they don't start eating themselves...

    Anyone else clone with only tap water?

    Ive had multiple people ask me what gel or treatment I use for clones, and but I only use tap water. I am just starting out growing on my own, but have been following my buddy who's been growing for years, and he's got a pretty good regiment down. We both use a Clone King, and he's told me he...

    Cover Floor With What?

    I bought dog kennel pans. They aren't that cheap, but very effective. About $50 each for the large ones are Petsmart. Two of them fit perfectly side by side in a 5x5 tent, with about 10 inches or so of room to step into the tent. If you are going to have tables going across the pans, just run a...

    Allergy like symptoms while trimming

    My buddy was just helping me trim about 8 pounds, so we were at it for awhile, and he was having pretty bad allergy symptoms. I was actually ok, even though I can get bad allergies from whatever it is outdoors (never pin pointed it). I forgot that I had a hepa air purifier sitting about 10 feet...
