    Newsletter Contest

    Well, I'd be starting from scratch... How do you envision it? Maybe a four page booklet newsletter? Something that could be printed on an 8.5"x11" double sided and folded in half? Is that cool?

    Newsletter Contest

    Is this still open? Do you want it in any particular format? HTML, PDF, Illustrator? How long would you like it (word count or pages)? Embedded photos and illustrations okay? I will do this for a chance at that gear. I will knock it out of the park.

    1st Time Grower - Care to lend a hand?

    Follow Up: Two days since raising the light off the canopy. Color is beginning to return to leaves. I did flush all pots with 2x volume H20 and then followed up with a small amount of diuted nutrients. I have one plant right now that is in 12/12, so when that one visits the room each day...

    Scientific proof that a ghetto (baking soda &vinegar) CO2 generator is pointless

    This is a quote from a government website concerning indoor air quality: "People exhale carbon dioxide—the average adult's breath contains about 35,000 to 50,000 ppm of CO2 (100 times higher than outdoor air). Without adequate ventilation to dilute and remove the CO2 continuously...

    Holly shit! I need all help people! I am gona get tested!

    If you have time... exercise is good (10+ days) but you definately want your metabolism to slow down before the drop. I would say no exercise for two-three days before the drop and consumption of high fat foods.

    1st Time Grower - Care to lend a hand?

    Follow up... It seems that the radiant temperatures were probably waaaaaaay too high. It was only my second day using a 1000w bulb. I think I underappreciated how bright and hot these things are. I raised the lamp to 18" above the canopy and it seems like things might be improving. The...

    Holly shit! I need all help people! I am gona get tested!

    There are a few ways to approach this... all of which have been discussed here, so I will summarize: 1) Dilute your urine by drinking water - You'll dilute the cannabanoid metabolites to a level low enough to not get a positive, but you also dilute the other metabolites to a level where the...

    1st Time Grower - Care to lend a hand?

    I decided to flush the small pots. We'll see if they recover or if I'm out $50 for seeds. I don't know what to do with the big plant. Probably just wait it out another watering cycle and see how it goes.

    Seed Germination

    I've read that germination can take up to 10 days, but in my very limited experience, it seems like if it doesn't happen in 2-3 days... probably not going to happen. Just make sure that it's warm enough to kick off the germination. Maybe these little seeds need more of a boost? I would...

    1st Time Grower - Care to lend a hand?

    The room is a closet. The walls are covered in mylar and the floor in heavy plastic. Aaaah, heck with it... I'll take a picture... hold on... This is the outside. :) The top of the door is the exhaust. The bottom is a passive intake. This is just inside the door. Air intake...

    1st Time Grower - Care to lend a hand?

    Hello everyone. Long time reader and finally registered on the site to post. I could use an opinion on what I'm seeing right now. I have been sprouting four seeds for 15 days under two 4' flouro tubes @38w each, 5000k spectrum. Plants were looking great. They grew to about 4" tall and...
