    How do these look?? New grower

    OK - you're enthusiastic and decided WTF "I'll just go for it". It's your first grow and it's understandable, but now's the time for a dose of reality. Autos and photos don't really belong together unless the photos are in veg. Autos do best with an 18/6 or 20/4 light cycle throughout their...

    How do these look?? New grower

    The label says 300W chip power ... that's the maximum amount of power the chips are rated for by their mfr... sadly it has nothing to so with the actual wattage the unit draws at the wall. Based on other similar fixtures, I'd guess you're lucky of you're pulling 100W. The good news is that for...

    Need some help

    The plant needs more than UV. Is that the only light?

    NEED HELP!!!!

    If you look at the stem just above the soil, it's badly damaged. I think the only way you'll save the plant is to pinch off the bottom "starter" leaves and add soil to cover the node they grew from. If it's going to make it the plant will send out additional roots. Get rid of the twine after...

    In need of a seasoned vets opinion!!

    For photoperiod plants, these are the best starter pots (reusable) you can get. By the time you're ready to transplant you'll have a terrific root system. https://myrootmaker.com/collections/propagation-trays-and-cells/products/indoor-outdoor-grow-bundle

    No worries. IF everything on a plant was perfectly uniform, it'd be artificial :)

    8k watt room 24k Btu Minisplit need a way to add humidity

    Are your lights air cooled? If not, that might be your answer. The air stream is sealed so it doesn't pull tent air and it will remove heat so your mini split may be more effective.

    new qb - help me decide before i waste my $$

    You don't have the height for the tables. You could put flood tables on the floor with a .5 - 1 in 12 pitch and an extraction pump and give yourself a manageable grow height.

    new qb - help me decide before i waste my $$

    No matter how much air you move, that light appears to be too close to the top of the plant. It looks like you grow "au natural". You should read up on topping and low stress straining and canopy management before you set up your new lights ... your investment will be much more productive if...

    New grower, seeds just arrived, what should I grow?

    Just a bit of unsolicited advice. As a first time grower, I read about lots of interesting strains and initially bought too many seeds for my grow environment. Enthusiasm overcame common sense. I fear you may be falling into the same trap. The good news is, you can safely store seeds in the...

    new qb - help me decide before i waste my $$

    The thing you have to understand about buying any piece of technology ... computers, lights, tvs, etc. ... if you can by it in a store it's already obsolete.

    new qb - help me decide before i waste my $$

    They're probably the best on the market since they originated the quantum board design. You can but cheaper copies on ali-baba but HLG is here in the US and makes the best product

    New grower, seeds just arrived, what should I grow?

    You should also go to the breeder's site for each strain and read their comments. The better sites will often have grow related info.

    Which led light to choose.

    If you order these today, you won't see them in the US until some time in July

    New to coco after 17 years in soil.... Here we go!

    For what it's worth, I like the Botanicare ReadyGro Moisture coco blend. I like to flush it with dechlorinated water to get rid of some of the fines, but I'm running hempy buckets not fabric pots.

    4x4 tent, 600w HPS, 1.5 month veg, autopots in scrog. How many plants?

    Just thought I'd add this for reference 4 plants (Ken's Granddaddy Purple) in a 5x5 with Fluence Spydr 2i 630w no CO2 with Greenleaf Nutrients products in 4 gallon hempy buckets with Botanicare REady Grow Moisture coco mix over 2" of river rocks. This is about 2 weeks before harvest. I realize...

    4x4 tent, 600w HPS, 1.5 month veg, autopots in scrog. How many plants?

    FYI the diy tech has largely moved on from cobs to strips

    4x4 tent, 600w HPS, 1.5 month veg, autopots in scrog. How many plants?

    My objection to mixing the hps and cmh is that the spectrum and micro moles will be unevenly distributed over the canopy. You’d be better off with the 2 600s dimmed a bit
