    Finish date guess-timation

    I've done both flush and no flush. I found no difference in taste, but I did see the "flushed" plants suffer from depleted nutrients.

    Finish date guess-timation

    Do I flush? Is flushing the right choice for my garden? Will flushing help my grow to a cleaner smoke? These might be some of the questions you might have. To answer these questions, we must first understand what flushing is, and where did the term come from. FLUSHING - to flush, the act of...

    How often do you use additives?

    I switched to Jacks 321 and the plants love it. You can use it from seedling to harvest and don't have to screw with calmag or anything else. The mix is completely customizable.

    ok, I understand what you mean now, but you're wrong. I have 1000w of led for much less than $800, and it works great.

    HID Question

    My led's give me super tight node spacing which is what I want in a plant. The tight node spacing combined with how I train gives me a very wide, shorter plant structure with about 18 to 24 top colas. The buds I get I would say are average, not huge, and are still pretty dense. My led's are from...

    HID Question

    I actually prefer to veg with my led's because I get super tight node spacing which I happen to like. I agree a better bulb may help

    I used this chart from Ilovegrowingmarajuna.com because my lights are just wing reflectors 150W 5-11 inches 250W 6-13 inches 400W 8-19 inches 600W 9-25 inches 1000W 11-31 inches The space I had them in was 2.5' x 5.0'

    HID Question

    Nope on mixing up the color temp. I'm not saying blurples are bad. I have 4 600w (250 at the wall) lights and do very well with them. I've never used anything other than the led's and T5's, but all the "guru's" said HID was better, so trying them out.

    To all the blurple haters ! Week 5 of flower auto blueberry

    Not trying to fuck up your chill, but that plant looks way too stretched. How far away did you have the boards in veg?

    HID Question

    Light is not air cooled, it was at 12 to 14 inches as recomended. Heat wasn't an issue, it was the lack of performance The brand of bulb I'm using is IPower The MH bulb is 6000k and the HPS is 2100k I do have a dimable digital ballast 150-250-400 Maybe I'm just expecting better results than...

    HID Question

    Growing inside I've always used the "cheap blurples" that everyone loves to trash, so this round I bought 2 400w MH/HPS fixtures. So far I'm not impressed. I kept the distance close and got fairly stretchy plants in veg compared to my cheap led's, and am not seeing better bud production in...

    The bags of that promix I use already has a lot of pearlite in it already. It's actually a little too light in my opinion so I always add some composted cow manure to it. The bags I use say HP on the side

    The Promix I grow in only has some starter nutrients which are good for about 2 to 3 weeks at the most. I usually feed starting at 2 weeks. If you're planning on using nutes anyway promix is a good product and reasonably priced It's also PHed neutral to start with
