    Home made reflector question

    The drill bit is going to catch and tear if it goes through. My guess is that it will get really hot making a valiant effort at getting through the stainless steel. You are right on the money with starting the whole with a punch (or a nail). You can do that and drill a hole up to around a half...

    Timers for inline fans.

    Does anyone make a thermostat for a fan? Come to think of it, a fan thermostat would have to be set up backwards or when it cools off the fan will come on cooling it even more.

    Home made reflector question

    Good luck painting that. You plan on drilling holes in that? Better get a hammer and center punch first. How big is this hole you propose to make? If it's large I got news, you're in for a real treat. lol

    2 600w HPS WHADDAYA THINK?

    I'd grab power from the ceiling lighting to feed the new light. Usually the lights and plugs in a room are on different circuits.

    hps and cfl together worth the hassle?

    Yes, use them. I pick on CFL a lot here, but that's because they aren't being used right, like driving screws with a hammer. Using CFL to supplement a T-5 or HPS is better than ideal. I've done it and the plants love it. Growing exclusively on CFL is something like an I/V / liquid diet for...

    Michigan House Panel Signs off on Medical Marijuana Dispensaries, Edible Products

    Are big colas stronger? I've never had the funds to buy more than a couple grams at a time, and most dispensary customers are the same way from what I can see. Those little popcorn buds are pretty much made to order for the dispensary and the patient, as most transactions are of a small amount...

    Michigan House Panel Signs off on Medical Marijuana Dispensaries, Edible Products

    You mean people still use their own names to sign in? Any dispensary that asks for my ID everytime I go in, doesn't see me come back in. I can still get it on the street if I had to, and I would before leaving a paper trail. They make a copy but that was months ago and plausible denyability is...

    The True Cycle of a Cannabis Plant and Yellowing Leaves

    I think that the mother stops using the nutes in the soil, so that the seed that grows in her place has those nutes available to it. She has already been becoming part of the soil again since before her demise, and by the time the seedling is ready to uptake nutes next season, natures processes...

    Upgrade my CFLs or move on to mh/hps?

    HID. Check prices between 400 and 600w, you might be able to get into a 600 on sale for what a regular priced 400 would cost. If you can, do it. :-)

    I'm not sure it's even legal for us to sell to them and them to sell to us. I think we have to be compensated for our time gas electricity and education, but the weed is all "donated".

    Very slow seedling growth in nearly perfect setup??

    Good to hear! I swear by those cool tubes myself. Should come free with every ballast.

    Harvest time? (with pictures)

    How many plants are you growing? No rule telling you that you have to cut them all down at once. If you have only one plant, harvest only the ripe ones, then wait a few days to take some more, leaving the lower buds for another 2 or 3 weeks. This will give you the most from your plant.

    Question about the leaves and harvest time with pics...

    Oh sure you can leave them go longer, it won't really hurt anything. I'm thinking you had a toxic buildup of salts in the soil, ph issues and the nutes thus, became unusable to the plant.

    r these stems worth the wait???

    Oh, for a total of 12 hours, running each bulb only 10? I guess he's trying to mimic natures dawn and dusk cycles? IDK I run everything 24/7.

    High PH signs, symptoms and correcting...Pictorial!! A must read for newb'z

    I looked to the scientific parts of the thread and learned about how ph worked in the soil, and that it was far easier and more effective to set up the soil properly so that it corrects the ph itself as the water is added, than to try to ph correct every feeding. The thread isn't about how...

    Question about the leaves and harvest time with pics...

    Well if you didn't defoliate (thankfully), then there was some nutrient or Ph issue causing the extreme loss of leaves. We can't tell, because we would need the l;eaves to make the diagnosis. What were you feeding and when?
