yeah man, i'm doing the lucas formula for fluoros. its 0-5-10mL micro and bloom. i shouldn't have to adjust my pH at all as long as i get it right when i initially mix up my nutes. ya gotta love the formula...... as for new growht with the fimming... by new growth do you mean vertical...

tom, do you think that it is the lumens that make the difference? i believe my little fluoros put out 4800 lumens each. if what you are saying is true, then i'm a happy camper!

yesterday when i was fixing my res i put my water pump in a cup full of h2o2 and left it on FULL speed for a while. last night when i put the trash can away for the night i didn't even think of this. so...... this morning i have water on the floor. its not tooo bad, maybe a quarter gallon, but...

one question, once you fim, how long (i'm talking in length of new growth) before i can fim again? or i guess i could ask how many fims could i possible get with around ten or fifteen inches to work with? sorry if it's oddly worded. i think funny

tom, thanks for the compliment and the link. that really is a good guide and i'm going to be using it in the future. i am wondering what you would do concerning my, uh, concerns...:mrgreen: I'm worried about height (there's more written above in post 14 and 17) and am debating whether to use...

DUDE. save this thread. after you mature for a couple of years (when your balls drop) you should come back to this thread and we'll all have a good laugh and smoke some of your shitty ass male schwag. until then, i believe that the majority of the site will avoid you. good day

thanks for the reply man, im' kinda stressin today. *resesvoir issues* i think you're right about the indica dom. the little one hasn't done much growing as of late cause i've been fucking with the can too much. but i've gotta get the environment set before she takes off ya know? i'm going...

I broke my res today. Not too happy about it. I was trying to drill a hole for tha thing that I explained earlier but apparently my res was not about to have it. So I'm going tomorrow to get another rubber washer and we'll see what happens. I guess I'm going to have to water by hand tomorrow...

ok. i guess the more i use this thing the more i know about it and what could be improved. my next improvement is with the resevoir. the can sits on top of the res, so its difficult to lift it to check on the water. i'm going to add a ninety degree plastic elbow to the bottom of the res on the...

thanks newb farmer! actually i'm not even trying to make money with this thing, just save it. overall, the can cost me around $250-300. but thats just what it cost me not what the parts would cost. a lot of the things i got for free which helped me out so much... the big ones were from last...

socalrippin, and everybody else, thanks for all the great compliments! this little plant is just reaching four weeks old. its around six inches tall right now. for a bit over three weeks this plant was on 18/6. the last couple of days i've been slowly bringing that time down to 12/12. should i...

i've switched the watering schedule to every three hours. the plant gets watered at 7 am, an hour after the lights turn on, then every three hours. so 7a, 10, 1p, 4. i'm also thinking about topping or crowning the plant to see if i can more tops. anybody got suggestions? i'm trying to get a...

hey everybody, i think that everything that i can do has been done. it all seems to be under control and functioning well. it appears to me that my next main concern is the plant itself (obviously). its mama was huge! i'm going to need to control its height. I understand that there are many...

i saw this a couple of days ago. it looks pretty effective. its not going to work at all with my setup but it looks like maybe you could do something with it? heres the link https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/169073-light-proof-intake-how-w.html i hope that helps you out or at...

i'd keep checking craigslist. around my area there are portable a/c's on there from $100-200. heck i just recently bought a blower on there for $20. its one of the blowers that inflate the bouncehouses for kids to jump on. this thing is small, powerful (5.5A) and thousands of CFMs! so yeah... be...

ok so lets say the pics are saved in a folder on the desktop. when you are making a post there is a mangae attachments button. click on that and then browse your computer for the pics that you have saved on the desktop. once they havce been "browsed" you can click upload. once this is done the...

i had a similiar problem earlier. i set my system up for flood and drain and it ended up being too much for the lil plants. What i did was just water them by hand at first until they started needing water more often. then i converted my flood and drain to a drip system. it was really easy i just...

alright i went to walmart and got my surge protector and another digital timer. I took the wiring from my fan and the surge protector and switched them. This way, i've got a surge protector with a pretty long cord on it. I velcroed it onto the exterior of the can and then cut all my other cords...

The lil girl looks good today. The light schedule has been to turn them on at 6a for eighteen hours. i'm going to decrease that period by an hour each day or else i don't think that i'll have enough room. so yesterday, the plant's first day in the can, i turned the lights off at the regular...

the whole can is airtight except for the eight air intakes. There are six for the lights and two passive air intakes for the plant. You can see them in some of the pics. The fan pulls enough air in so that the lights are absolutely cool to the touch. I'm actually planning on the plant growing on...
