So do you mean applying the mumps during transplanting? Sorry if that a stupid question haha.bongsmilie
That's how I use it and seen others that use it do the same.. don't no the science but it works for me and every body else that uses it that I know of ... and that's the mycorrhizal inoculant, and not the mycorrhizae cause they're diffrent..✌

How come? You are getting impatient I think here. And I don't want to overstep seeing some of us noobz tend to speak out of tongue sometimes but. I would be letting them mature and veg for a while Hun. Like atleast a month of real vegging possibly two months. Pull some clones off them. And keep it rolling. You putting them in 12-12 right off bat that early isn't the best idea either. Light helps them grow and get bigger and produces more nodes and places for budding to grow and flower. That's why some run 20-24 first couple weeks to really get them started. Then dial it down to 18-6 for a proper veg. Then usually after 30-60 days in veg they put them in flower under a 12-12 regiment to trick the plant into thinking winters coming hence harvest 68-80 days later you get bud. Your plants are very small atleast from what I can remember. I just don't understand where this is coming from???
yeah, i decided to just leave them alone, i turned off the lights and the temps dropped to much, its cold in my apartment. just wanted to experiment a little experience flower, but guess I will have to learn patience. going to leave the ladies alone and let them veg :-) White widow popped her little head out of the soil this morning, what a rush!.....now I have 2 to take care of. god help me~ LOL

Started 4 more today-Pineapple Kush Fems-from Royal Queen-soaked overnight in shot glass til sunk, transfered to Rapid Rooters(damp) and into Dome in dark & 75 degrees.Should see signs in 3-5 days, then 24 wt. Led and heat mat until real leaves,,then into bubble buckets and full LED @ 18/6. .Hopefully timing is right and after 45 days,can transfer to big tent,chop current, and then start 4 more.for perpetual grow.May have to extend,as these newest are photos and will take longer in veg.& flower than my current Autos. Timing is the big variable. LOL .

So just got my electric bill. It's at 185$ mo. Normally it's 110-120$. That's with me running two circular fans to circulate air. 2 6" fans one for scrubber and other for light hood. Running a 400wMH.

I just figure this forum as well is for noobz. So I guess I'd share what cost this is coming to. So with that said I'm estimating about with 1000wHPS RUNNING ILL GO UO TO 250$ month for electric. When running both set ups.

Also my town in whole just locked into .09 cents a kWh. Which therefore I'm happy with :)

Also when people are growing outdoors. Safe bet to start them indoors how much in advance? You all (locals) know where in the midst of winter right now. But I'd like to get a good jump start at outdoor grow for the spring to break ground. I'd like to put them near a water river lake pond. Close enough that it's wet under the ground as well. Say even 2 feet or more down.....? Not sure about this. Or available to get water if needed to them. I've been mapping out places for a year now so I have quite a few spots. I'm not going to get into major detail on the whereabouts or any of this. Well it's frowned upon. It is on a friends property but he has lots of land. So let's say he will have access to them but doesn't want much traffic there. So when should I start popping fems seeds indoor to get ready for outdoor.

Last but not least. What's people's thoughts on outdoor using autos? Is this possible?

you said you were pretty handy ... let me know if you'd like to explore replacing your HPS with COBs. You'll save a bunch on electricity and ventilation.

RE: outdoors ... just remember that unless you're planting AUTOs, they'll veg until probably September before they start to flower. That could mean some 7-10 foot specimens that will need side netting support.
Also, bear in mind that deer and rodents have a taste for the girls as well as the inevitable insects.

I very much am so. I know another gentleman on this forum is as well. I'd like if someone's comfortable with hosting on this matter or has a place we can all meet and possibly bring our tools and shit and build them together. Kinda weird to ask or offer this but. If comfortable I think it would be great.

I'm kinda dumb with electrical. I've watched vids looks easy enough but I will fuck it up somehow some way. Hahaha.
With that said I'm trying to put a 20 amp breaker in and I don't have the room. Only one more spot open. I do have an idea on what to do switching a 15 that I have and taking it out putting in a 20 in those two spots. What sucks is 20 nowadays take two spaces where as old ones were one spot on box.

Right now my funds are low. Getting married end of year and costing me a fucking fortune. Kinda disgusting 40 racks give or take. 10g more than what was expecting. She'll get the day she's dreamed about.

Not to be pedantic, but 400w of COB's will cost you the same to run as 400w of HPS. Now if you are saying he can replace 400w with 300, or that he will won't need as much a/c, then that is a different argument.

The power company doesn't care how you burn watts, they all cost the same.
