    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Just started using 476w quantum led board and wow, they get hot! Even with a fan blowing on the lights my tent shot up to 88C. Had to quickly set up my cfm fan to push some cold air from the window (good thing its cool out). How do most people cool their tents? I used to use a cooltube with my...

    How long to wait for seeds to germ

    Ya it might have been something I did and wasn't aware of but to be safe I started 2 new seeds while waiting for the others to pop and the 2 new ones have germed. So maybe 2 not great seeds plus me doing something off perhaps. Just sucks when it's like $10 per seed lol. I usually put them in a...

    How long to wait for seeds to germ

    Ahh k I was thinking the same. Sounds good I'll plant them all tmrw and just see what comes of them. Do most people use paper towel method? I've heard of just putting them in a glass of water but that always seemed like it would drown them.

    How long to wait for seeds to germ

    Oh wow weeks? I thought it's normally 1-3 days. Should I switch out the paper towels? I assume after weeks they might get moldy.

    How long to wait for seeds to germ

    Hey all So 3 days ago I started 3 seeds with the wet paper towel method. 1 has popped and basically ready to be put in soil, the other 2 have no tail or don't even look to be cracked yet. I'm especially worried because my Gorilla Bomb seed was very small compared to others and when I took it...

    Poll: Do you add additional drainage to bottom of soil grow

    Hey all So some friends I know put large rocks or small pebbles on the base of their pots then add soil where as i've always just went directly with soil into the pot (perlite included in the soil). Just wondering if most people add additional drainage to the base of their pots or just go...

    Stagnant Wages since 1974

    This is where socialism can help. If you had more worker co-ops in these types of industries you could have a more balanced approach. When workers control or contribute to decision making of the entire business you would see a less profit motivated result. Workers won't vote to get rid of their...

    Stagnant Wages since 1974

    Many things happened around this time to contribute to stagnant wage growth for the bottom 80% (wages for top 20% have risen over 275% since 79). Where we used to have productivity and wage growth closely inline (aka you make more you earn more), this shifted largely in the late 70's/early 80s...

    Do you need Veg nutes with FFOF

    Would you say additional CalMag isn't needed throughout the grow or do your organic ferts that you add in the later weeks contain some? Just wondering if adding CalMag during the first 4-5 weeks and after transplant would be too much due to soil already containing some.

    Do you need Veg nutes with FFOF

    Looking to grab Fox Farm Ocean Forest for my first in a long time grow as it comes with most of what you need to start off with. My question is, will I need extra N or veg nutes at all if Ocean Forest typically has enough organic nutes in it to last 5 or so weeks? Was just going to use CalMag...

    2x300w or 1x600w VIPARSPECTRA LED lighting for 2-3 plants

    That's awesome! Thanks man I was looking for a Canadian distributor since I'd be paying duties on the Optic 4 and other quantum boards I saw. Gonna email them about shipping costs. Also guessing it's all in Canadian pricing?

    2x300w or 1x600w VIPARSPECTRA LED lighting for 2-3 plants

    Ok so the Viparspectra is out Now leaning toward Quantum Strips at 320w or the Optic 4 light with 415w and 4 COB's. OPTIC 4 is about $600 Canadian so it's the highest I'd go. YouTube showing some good reviews
