    Stealth Armoire: I need some advice please +rep

    The only suggestion I can think of is: 400 watt HPS might be too powerful. The box is only about 5 and half feet. Your in between sized, but in space that is nice and compact like yours, you might be able to get a 250 watt and cover the grow space with enough lumens. Plus lower watts can be...

    My First Grow: Journal

    yes that reflector works well even if its ghettoed to the max lol. Might have to take it out. Think the new lights and reflector just make it too hot for the plants. Plants look a little droopy today. Not bad, but not like the perky plants I have normaly. Might give it one more day to see...

    My Beautys, what do you think?

    About the average life cycle is 18 days. I think your neem/soap and natural preditors will keep them at bay at least. Good luck.

    My Beautys, what do you think?

    Well there seems to be alot of confusion about Neem oil. The Azadirachta indica is what is refered to as the "Neem Plant". Products bearing the Aza prefix of the name is NEEM oil. Azatrol, Gnatrol, its all mostly neem oil. As you can tell by the name it has alot in common with the cannabis...

    Having weed is making me hate my freinds(SackCHasin)

    Well, since you have a card your not worried about getting busted. Thats the biggest thing right there. Since you live in State where MMJ is legal, its not like he cant get good bud if he wanted to. You can do one of two things: sit him down and tell him how you feel about. Let him say his...

    First grow first journal. Northern lights feminized seeds from Nirvana lots of pics!

    Those Bubbas look good. Hard to say what to do with them. You could lst them and then put them in you main flowering room. But there aren't enough of them to fill the room. That would seem like a waste of space. What size are the pots? They look to be about 1 gallon or so. I bet they would...

    My First Grow: Journal

    Day 21. Woke up today and room temp was about 94 degrees and by far the highest temp to date. Got it back to about 85 in about an hr so. Pants were a little droopy and I had some heat stress on on of the leaf blades. Made new reflector today out of some cheap aluminum pans and ducted taped...

    Nirvana's Northern Light Feminized + Autoflower Grow

    Gratz my friend I am so happy for you. I think the high heat might of had an effect on the flowering of the plants. I have the same problem as you do. I live in FL and its freaking hot here. My room stays at about an average of 84 degrees or so. But during certain periods and very hot days...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    Umm, WW is one of the most potent strains ever created and some 20 years later it still is. Please tell me something: if you dont understand the most basic facts about the plant WW, how in the hell can you comment on the commplicated explanation that was given at the start of this post? You...

    Can anyone attest to leaving the lights off = quicker thc turn over?

    Anything you do will be quick dry technique that isnt hanging. You can use a paper produce to help get the moisture out, but be careful of what kind of paper you use. Any kind of paper is going to draw out the Thc as well as the water, and that will weaken the potency. Wrap in the wrong kind...

    Can anyone attest to leaving the lights off = quicker thc turn over?

    Well it sounds like your plants not ready so placing it in the dark is going to stop/slow trichs from turning clear to cloudy. So I dont think a dark period is best for you. The larger buds need a week or more to dry so they can be jarred and stored. Your in a bad spot. You couold go ahead...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    Yes, some strains can produce more, some produce less. Those that produce the most get the longest time, those that produce the least get the least. More=more, least=least. Havent we gone over this already? You know for a guy that demands SCIENCE, you dont even bother to read it very well...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    Ok one last thought then its off to bed. While the plants alive and breathing, its using all of the plant (leaves and stems mostly) to convert the cannaboids to THC. This is a rapid conversion as oxygen is created as a by product, the change is immidiate into thc. That thc is then shipped to...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    Dark period doesnt replace the cure period, its a preamble to the curing. Your trying to load the bud with THC will preserving the trich colors. Then cut and cure. One improve the other. They are not mutualy exclusive. Stop thinking that way.

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    I there are ways I think that can improve survival of a plant in a extend dark period. One method is over lumen the plant (more than 10000 per sq. inch). This cause the plant to reperate more, drawing up more water. Use carbo load to infuse the plant with more sugar. The plant will store...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    Thats a very good question. First, all I know is that some expert grower recommend this and its suppose to work well for the white widow but prob not any other strain. So thats an exception to the rule. Second thing, the plant will begin to die during longer periods. So accept the fact that...

    Why extend dark periods improve potency

    I put this in another thread as resposne, but I decided to start a new thread to get feedback. Please add or correct any details after reviewing. Thanks. Ok I think I'm getting closer to understanding why an extended dark period not only preserves levels of THC but also why it produces...

    Can anyone attest to leaving the lights off = quicker thc turn over?

    Ok I think I'm getting closer to understanding why an extended dark period not only preserves levels of THC but also why it produces more. It's rather complicated so I'll try to keep it simple. First, THC is produced during the secondary metabolic function (when plant cells breaths). The...
