    Haha, if you revieve them for what? So you can grow past the flower period? What period is that? Two weeks of dark then harvest. When you turn the lights off you expect them not to grow any further. That IS the point.

    CFL Light Fixture Help

    I just ordered three 105 watts from the same place. There are two kinds of sockets that can be used for CFL's: mogel (e39) or the meduim (e26). The meduims are regular socket that fit normal bulbs. Yours are the mogul kind. Make sure to order mogel sockets and they will work fine. You...

    I heard bout the blue mystic problem. Nirvana is the only seed shop that warns its customers that they might have given you bad product. They are great. I grow indoors, small grow room. Not even sure how I would try growing outdoors in FL. Too hot. Good luck.

    Ok did some googling a found a good clear, kinda easy description of how light effect a plant. Here's the link: http://www.tomatosphere.org/teacher-resources/teachers-guide/grades-8-10/plants-and-light.cfm In short, over lighting can realy only have one effect on a plant: too much heat. If...

    My First Grow: Journal

    Haha, I want one of those kid toys so bad! It's funny how they market that as an adolecent toy, but they would be way better off marketing it to pot heads, they would make way more money.

    Whats up Howard. Desert Rat did a very interesting study about lumens. Here the link and give it a read: https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/349293-myth-busters-s-light.html According to him, you indeed can over lumen/light you plant. He doesn't say what over light does to plant or why...

    The extend dark period isnt about the degrading THC alone. What they are suggesting for this strain (and its only this strain that they suggest a two week dark period) is that you dont want the flowers growing, because you want the the plant to use its stored resources to focus on producing...

    cfl grow room suggestions

    Nice little veg box you have there. Take some more pics so we can see the plants up close. I'm not sure but by looking at the pics you have, it looks like you plangts a bit droopy. It looks like your drip trays have standing water or have had standing water in them. First you dont water in...

    Thought I remebmered this. Its the Nirvana White Widow that the sensible seeds sells. Nirvans's white widonw has diferent gentics than the orginal from Greenhouse. Its taller and more slender and very delicate, from what I understand. If Nirvana suggest two weeks of dark or at least 30%...

    What stain are they refering to? White Widow? I think most seedbanks suggest a longer period of darkness with their white widows. Not sure if two weeks if excessive, but they certainly do get signifcant more dark time before harvesting than most other strains.

    CFL's: reflector or no reflector?

    Let me add at little info. On the surface things, it would appear using a reflector could only be benefical. It directs all the light to the plant, hence no lumens shoot out towards the wall or ceiling. But a reflector places the end part of the buld towards the plant (the smallest surface...

    CFL's: reflector or no reflector?

    What emits more lumens on the plant? A CFL with a cone reflector on it? or, A CFL with no reflector, turned sidways, the length of the bulb is closest to the targeted plant? Has anyone with a lumen meter ever test this? Can someone test it and get back with us? I want to post the results on the...

    Low-Wattage CFL Growers!

    Question: does a cfl emit more lumens w/ a reflector on, or does a cfl emit more lumens without a relflector on and turned sideways? Not sure what the answer is. Anyone w/ a lumen meter can test or has tested it?

    Wow man those plants look awesome. Looks like the fucking amazon jungle bro. Excellent job. Your seedling box is insane, 700 watts. I'm guessing but I estimate thats got to be about 25k lumens per sq foot. I hope you put on your sunglasses when you open the door to that grow box lol. Hey...

    I have bugs! Please help

    Hey pointswest. I dont think you bad assumetion at all. Dunks are to be used in standing water and gnatrol (I believe is made to be sprayed on soil and plants.) They both have the beneficial bacteria, but believe gnatrol has some other ingredents that make more suitable for soil. The dunks...
