I started my first hydro grow and have yet to put my seedlings on nutrients. They're almost ready and what I hear is start at about 300 ppm. My tap water is already 260 ppm so my question is do I add 300 ppm worth of nutrients and bring the total to 560 or do I add 40 ppm and start at relatively nothing? (BTW, buying distilled water or RO is not in the cards at the moment).

100 watt cfl.. yes/no they will live but they will be thin and stretchy.. and its not enough for flowering.. unless its a bonsai grow.. or a cab??

hi i am currently having alot of trouble getting my seeds to sprout. First i had them in jiffy peat pellets for 4 days in my grow room under 1000 watt light to keep them warm, with tempartures of 35 to 45 degrease and there was no signs of sprouting. So i removed abit of the soil and they only just split so i left them acouple more days and still no sign so i looked again at the roots and the was no diference from the first time i looked. So by this time im starting to stress and worry.

so i thought i would try germinating them them in paper towel but the temperature was to cold and after 2 days the roots didnt grow much and only just split the shells on the 4 fresh seed that i put in. so now iv put all my seeds straight in seed raising mix straight into pot. they have been in there for 2days and still no show. do u think iv killed my seed or should i keep them going.

Also whats a good way to bring your humidity level up mine is currently sitting on 20 %

fem seeds that are made using co silv, or whatever other method, will be similar to clones of that one plant that was made to produce the seeds correct?
meaning i wont get a sat dom and indica dom and a purple pheno out of a pack, they will all be consistent to whichever the breeder decides to be the keeper. yes, no?

if not, if your not breeding, why buy reg seeds at all??
i kno the hermy thing but if your in a good environment and good genetics that shouldnt be an issue.

I am wanting to add 2 x 600 watt air cooled hoods to a room that is already well controlled as far as temp/humidity is concerned. What would be the most effective way to cool these lights? ie fan size & placement. I want the lights right next to each other, at the same height the whole time, hooking them together seems logical but i want to keep them cool. need design help. :)

I am just getting ready to start my first grow, it's small - just 2-3 plants and I have a bunch of nutes, and fertilizer - but no idea how to use it all and what type of schedule I should be doing with them. I'm growing in Sphagnum Moss btw...

To start I guess I'll list what I have;
Growing Bat guano (10-3-1)
Flowering Bat guano (2-17-0)
Advanced Nutrients Bud factor X
Advanced Nutrients Sensizsm
Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice

I get that I can just follow the mixing directions, but do I combine them all into 1 cocktail? Or should I use one on any single watering day and keep rotating them? Should I use one, then water for a day with no nutes, then use another one and keep repeating with just water in between?

I was planning on mixing the vegging guano into the soil at 3 tbsp per pot - the flowering guano says to make tea, could I make the tea and just add both of the flowering AN nutes to it, or will that be too much for the plants?

EDIT: Just bought some Sensi Grow A+B...

This is my first post and I'm so excited to grow my first bud! So heres my question, I am looking to grow some Autoflowering bud.http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk.../prod_442.html

I am going to be growing in a small space in my closet (about 3x2 feet walls painted white with black curtain)Would one t5 6400k light and one 3000k light be enough to supplement these 3 plants? Or should I get 2 of each? Also, could I combine the 6400 and the 3000 and just have the plants ride it out with both of those on? Or would I get a bigger yield not mixing the two?

Also, if you have any comments or recommendations on the seed strain or light fixtures please give your input, I'd love to hear it!

Thanks!
