    most everyone will tell you to build your own system. and really it is what is best. you can tailor it to your room size and needs. save a LOT of money. and its fun to boot. Most of the sites are selling shit they build at home depot anyway. but unless you have seen one working in action it is...

    Personal Air quality affected by plants?

    i could see the plants close proximity making you sleepy. think about it. a few big healthy plants in their peak turning what co2 there is into nice pure o2, maybe even dropping the rooms total co2 ppm, don't know if they use more than you put off. anyway o2 makes you sleepy and calms you. one...

    please help

    The drooping now is from turning off the water, in those aero gardens they need that water on all the time or about 4 minutes off at a time max. 4off1on works well As for the first problem, what nutrients are you using and how much? Do you know the ph of your water?

    Need help with deciding on LED lighting

    Whatever product you decide on just google that product and journal ie "grow panel 45" journal. This will turn up actual people that actually grow.. But might as well start off right and get a growledhydro.com led unit. It's more money because they actually work. A lot of people buy them and...

    How to make hash

    Yeah butane hash is definently an outdoor event. A light pilot from a water heater, he'll even some carpet static could blow up/burn down your house. But really it's not much more flammable than gasoline, just more fumey. Proper ventilation is beyond a must. Also yes a YouTube search would be...

    LED Advise Needed

    I would stay away from Gotham Hydro. If you check their ebay auctions you will find a lot of good marketing, hell they even won the grow boys cup. Then you actually research and find that they created a front magazine/website to run a fixed competation. The competation has nothing in it but...

    How to make hash

    to avoid another question ill ask here. how much trim do you guys generally end up with on a 2-3 oz plant? ie how many zips of viable trim per plant? just generalities, i have never measured before and really never used it beyond some horrible cooking haha. back on topic, can you get butane...

    A Theory: Using Infrared Light to Drastically Reduce Dark Time of Flowering Plants

    this has actually been researched and tested before, on here even. when i was searching uvb i believe i found the thread. in the thread they are using uvb reptile lights to extend flowering times to i think 15 or 16 hour days. the technique has enough merit that it will be incorporated into the...

    13/17 light schedule ... BLUE DREAM

    i know if i were going to alter my plants flowering cycle (stating with new plants ofc) i would put the research into using the uvb bulbs during the morning and sunset hours. apparently its going to be in the next grow bible and can extend your flowering light hours to something like 15 while...

    Thinking of R.O. water? You may want to think again.

    ok so i found my city report, can someone interpret the general impact of the following levels of shit that stood out to me. sodium. 17mg per litter. kinda sounds like a lot compared with some waters and such that we are told not to use due to the sodium content. floride. 1ppm. seems...

    Vacation extended, how long after a plant dries out can it rebound? wk 5 flowering

    yeah i know the best we get are guesses, but its a start. unfortunently the extra day is non negotiable at this point. hopefully i get just the start of bad droop and all it will need is some water, likely though i will be a bit into the dry and recovery time will be needed, its shit i know...

    Vacation extended, how long after a plant dries out can it rebound? wk 5 flowering

    I should say that those gallon figures are divided by three. If I gave each plant that dead for sure, but as it sits I'm more afraid of the dry than the wet

    Vacation extended, how long after a plant dries out can it rebound? wk 5 flowering

    yeah i have hit that drooping time as well, im just really after knowing how long is too long. how far can they be, and what are the adverse effects. i imagine potency and yield could suffer as the plant does what it can to survive. i know there are too many variables to really give any real...

    Vacation extended, how long after a plant dries out can it rebound? wk 5 flowering

    Ok so i had been planning to return to my grow after a 4 day(and one night) vacation. To sustain them i pretty thoroughly saturated the soil(not dangerously so) and added one of those water bubbles(self watering glass bubbles for houseplants) to each plant. Generally i water 3 plants (one small...

    Thinking of R.O. water? You may want to think again.

    If you really want to convince and help us could you list some of the bad things our water report might have in it and what levels are safe for each? I know most people are worried about chlorine but I have never heard of a figure(ppm or however the reports are run) as to how much is too much...

    RED Mylar for flowering???

    I thought that it was that when outdoor plants flower late summer the tilt of the earth in relation to the sun meant that the rays of light had to travel through more atmosphere( as it is no longer straight through rather across a longer angle) before hitting us and the byproduct of that was...

    RED Mylar for flowering???

    Isn't it more likely that the tomato comparison was between plants with a reflective underlay vs plants with plain dirt or dark underlay? That would really explain The issue. Extra light bouncing back up vs a plant with no extra light bouncing. I'm on the boat that the Mylar is not going to...
