    Anybody have experience with blackstarled.com? Shipping to Canada also

    Beat me to the punch. a Hydro Hut PG 180 will provide a lot more growing horse power than a BS 240 which only draws 130w when plugged in vs the PG 180 that operates on 160w. Blackstars do work but are notorious for overstating the actual power of their lamps. For reference I've owned...

    questions about autos

    I was refering to light penetration. It's great that you have 40k lumens however only a percentage of those floro lumens are being absorbed by the plants and the fact that they are 26 watters, as mentioned earlier, means they aren't going to have the power to travel very far from the bulb with...

    help choosing autoflowering seeds

    both of those are crap. Nirvana has had well documented issues with their autos. Look at single seed centre they have an excellent selection. Some autos I've grown that were just as good as most photoperiod bud ... Smurfberry - Sagamantha Vertigo and Pandora - Paradise seeds MI-5 and...

    questions about autos

    you may want to look into upgrading your lighting, especially if they are stretching. IMO that isn't enough light to grow two plants effectively. Adding more wattage will let you get max yield.

    Autoflowers foxfarm nutrient schedule

    just like photos some like the nutes more than others. I typically use bush dr. microbe brew from the get go, add grow big around week 2, then tiger bloom when they start to flower. Cha-Ching to finish. Bud Candy from advanced also kicks ass. I use Ocean forest potting soil. I too...

    are these ready to go under hps?

    IMO yes but don't put the light too close. Keep it at least 15 inches away and allow the plants to grow into the light. Do you have a cool tube? If not look into one. You might risk burning the crap of of them.

    Lighting help. Can't really afford metal halide and HID at the moment.

    From personal experience having grown for over 5 years. I started with 105w CFL (true wattage) 5 of them at 25 bucks a pop. Later upgraded to a 400w HPS, then added another 400w hps, then switched to LED and am quite happy with my choice. The point of this short story - I blew way too much $$...

    Lighting help. Can't really afford metal halide and HID at the moment.

    Don't jerk around with cfls unless you're buying 105w or greater in which case you might as well spring for HID. Seriously you don't have 100 odd bucks you can invest in a grow? You'll get it back in 8 weeks if you do it right.

    VERTIGO (paradise seeds)

    The most well behaved auto I ever grew was la bella afrodita from delicious seeds. The smoke was legit as well. Autos are really hard to fuck up unless you buy crap genetics to begin with - and unfortunately there is a good amount of that going around these days. Just read reviews and...

    Reliable working real led

    All I use are pro-grows. They come from the same factory as pro-source. Either would be a realiable choice. If you look at the pro grow line and want something more tuned to flowering check the 260 or 550. I have two 180s, a 250 (2010 model before it became the 260 in 2011), and a new 550...

    Is LED bad for your eyes?

    I too get head aches if I don't wear my terminator wrap around sunglasses in my room. 1010w of any light would require sunglasses though. Be safe man you only get two eyes

    VERTIGO (paradise seeds)

    Just chopped my vertigo last night. I'll toss up some pics if I have the time today. Easily 3 oz if not more. I took some scissor hash and put it on top of some vanilla haze. Knocked me for a loop. Had to take a 1/2 hour break from trimming to compose myself. It is an excellent strain in...

    Highest Yielding Auto?

    Don't knock until you've tried some well reviewed autos. I'll take the pepsi challenge with any local grown photoperiod bud.

    need to give my first grow autos a good kick up the ass !! advice?

    Yes I run LED and keep my lights on 23-1. I've played with other regimines and this has worked best in my garden.

    Harvest every three-four weeks?

    plant a new one every two to three weeks. I maintain a four plant perpetual garden, grow autos exclusively, and always have something to smoke and usually plenty left over to donate to friends and family. Autos will yield two plus oz in optimal conditions. You'll need kick ass lighting, 5...

    need to give my first grow autos a good kick up the ass !! advice?

    Hate to be the bearer of bad news but those will probably not yield much brother. Try a loose soil, I use FF Ocean Forest. Maybe you just got a batch of bad beans. The above posts are correct, for max yield use 5 gallon pots. Air pots are also an excellent addition. What do you're temps look...
