plants stretch because of insufficient light, as they grow towards the strongest point source of light. more light, closer, is the only long term solution to stretching. you're making a tradeoff when you stake the plants because you are not giving the stems a chance to grow strong enough to...

only one light per closet, your 1000 watt hps lights give out about 145,000 lumens each and you do not want to exceed 10,000 lumens per square foot for flowering, and you only need 2,000 lumens per square foot for vegging. so you don't really have a need for the second 1000 watt light unless you...

congrats on your new grow. lots of skeptics here about led's, and i'm one. just can't believe they give out enough light to grow. do your lights have a lumens rating?

the only space you can effectively use a 1000 watt light is one or both of your closets. any area less than 15 square feet (approx 10,000 lumens per square foot) is going to have too high light intensity resulting in significant bleaching of your plants. for flowering, you can fit anything...

lol.. no double agents allow

i got to give you an A for effort, but your plan still has big holes: 1. smell - your whole bedroom suite is going to reek of weed. everything in the space will reek of weed. you will reek of weed. you will get busted. the only way to effectively control smell is to confine the contaminated...

i use the botanicare line of nutes and supplements. this is only a guess, but i'd say you're wasting money with o2. remember that although the roots use some oxygen, for the rest of the plant oxygen is a waste product that hinders growth. only way to know for sure is to do a grow with and...

i've cut two holes in my walls that i would rather not have had to do but it was the only solution for my grow room. an input hole goes to a room that's on central a/c and an outlet hole goes outside the house. when it comes time to move it'll probably cost me $100 to close and finish the...

no pic, try again

i going to try to help you, so please be patient. your plan is not practical. you are vastly underestimating the heat a couple of 1000 watt lights will produce and you are vastly underestimating how much smell you get from the number of plants you can raise under that much light. if you were...

type of weed is such a personal question - depends on what kind of high you're looking for. seems all breeds are promoted as high thc so that's not really a way to choose. most people probably do what i am in the middle of, just try a couple, find what you like and start a mother plant for...

because he described and said in number two he has nute burn, that's why. he's better off flushing and starting over with diluted nutes which will correct any deficiencies he has as well.

that'll work perfectly

if you put a carbon screen on your window but don't seal the space your whole house/apartment will smell. people use a grow box or grow tent in your situation.

just cannot tell from those pics - but it's really easy if they are showing. males have multiple small pods growing together at the base of the growth tip. females have multiple white hairs at the growth tip. if you have neither, they haven't sexed yet. you really won't have any question...

not sure what advice you're looking for -you've done everything you can until they show sex - something more definitive than a single white hair (yes, its a good sign, but shit happens). you should have much larger plants after 3 months but if i understand correctly you just boosted your lights...

as intenzity says, bag the o2 line - normal air gives plants sufficient oxygen and it's easier to use airstones in your reservoir. as for the co2, it is heavier than air and will settle to the floor of your room unless you have good airflow inside your grow space.

no one has ever shown me a case where the electric company notified authorities about electrical use. it is not illegal to use more electricity than your neighbor, and many hobbies and lifestyle choices have major impacts on usage. the authorities might subpoena electrical records if they...

i counted your first pics, guess you had multiples of same plant? so yea, a 400 watt light should do it. and you'll have no problems with heat with a properly sized a/c, you can even consider adding co2.

first, are you at all concerned about smell? - and to answer the question for you - yes, you should be concerned about smell. even if you're growing as a legal caregiver you are inviting thieves if you don't control smell. neither of your options will work to control smell. basically, you...
