    hps for veg

    Thanks for all the info guys. The HPS is definitely hotter than the MH. It seems WAY brighter as well. I know about color spectrums.. but has anyone done a comparison of same genetics vs MH and HPS light for vegging? Just curious as to what the consequences are.

    hps for veg

    hi all, I purchased a cheap MH 400WATT and an expensive Hortilux Enhanced Spectrum HPS bulb. During veg, the cheaper MH bulb started emitting an awful ringing sound I couldnt get to go away so I returned it. I have no more funds.. is it OK to veg under the HPS? If I do, what are the...

    Buying online

    I am in a similar situation as the initial poster and here is what I have come up with. 1. I ordered Souvenirs from attitude and nirvana. Both came within a week and are working out fine. I suggest you do not open the package for the first day or two incase someone caught on. Keep in mind, I...

    Leaf Tip Question

    Yes, my hand is more than comfortable and the light is 12 inches away. I have a 6'' Cool Tube so I can get it pretty close.. but still, 12 inches isnt that close considering other grows I have seen.

    Leaf Tip Question

    I transplanted 6 days ago and only gave them Technaflora's transplant recipe at 1/4 strength plus PH adjusted water. I have not watered since then as the soil is still dark and moist on top (although it has significantly lost weight). I transplanted from beer pong cups to 2 gallon pots. The soil...

    yellow leaves

    You should immediately flush each plant with 3 times its weight in PH adjusted water or else you will significantly decrease the potency/taste/yield.

    Need help on Bulb Choice

    Hi All, I have been vegging from seed for a little over 3 weeks now. I started with some shitty CFLS but have now put them under a 400W MH and they are beginning to take off. I spent a little extra and got a Hortilux 400W EYE (Enhanced Spectrum) Bulb for flowering (8 weeks). I currently...

    Help!.. Security related light cycle question.

    OK, thanks a lot guys. So whats the deal with feminized seeds? Are they just genetically more disposed to hermaphroditic or just more susceptable to light cycle change stress? I am using them.

    Question About Light Cycle

    Hi All, I just read this on http://bcseeds.com/. Is this true? I have 136WATTS of 2700K CFLs on 1.5 week old feminized seedlings. Should I be worried about increasing the male ratio? After they get a bit bigger I will repot in 2 gallons and put under a 400WATT and do 118/6. THANK YOU!

    Starting seeds in rockwool cubes

    Ya I know it works but really.. whats the point of adding another step (rockwool) to a soil grow? I havent heard a good argument for it.

    Starting seeds in rockwool cubes

    I am a relatively new grower but have done tons of research and this is what I have found: There is no point in germinating/starting seeds in rockwool if you are going to grow in soil. Think about it.. what is the reason? Germinate your seeds in the good ol' paper towel method and then start...

    Best seed ordering site??

    Just received a pack from attitude and nirvana. Attitude gave me one free. I must say tho.. the "discrete" shipping methods were not that discrete. If the package is opened it is obvious.. so be aware.
