    How to beat the OP

    In response to a number of requests, we're writing a how-to for defeating OP's. If you don't already know what we're talking about, then it's not something you're interested in, so please don't ask. Credit for first beating the new formula goes to the good people over at Bluelight, some more...

    help please

    This is a lie. There are inorganic substances, like many acids & bases that can be used to adjust pH, which do not affect the flavor of the finished buds. Organic fertilizers are great but just because a substance isn't organic doesn't mean it's bad for you or your plants.

    150 watt mh 24/7?

    Yes. Startup is the hardest on the lamp and is the time where failure is most likely. With proper cooling, an HID turned on 24/7 should outlast one that's turned on and off every day. Any differences between the ballast you're using and the one you should be using will be nullified by having no...

    help please

    We are all for organics and all of our fertilizers are organic. We gotta say, however, that it's a little hard to believe that you can taste the difference between plants grown with organic fertilizers that had their pH adjusted with an inorganic acid and plants grown "all organically." I mean...

    Twisted White Widdow Seedlings

    Keep in mind when testing runoff that its pH can vary anywhere from the pH of the liquid you water with to that of the soil. The longer the liquid sits in the soil, the closer its pH will be to that of the soil. Liquid that runs out the bottom first after watering will be closer to the liquid's...

    Simple question!

    Find out the name of the breeder and check their website for the flowering time of that strain.

    help!!!!! cant figure out wat problem my baby has first timer !!!!!

    First check your soil pH. Next, feed them a nutrient ratio close to 3-2-2, properly pH'd. Always wait for at least the top third of the soil to become bone dry before watering again.

    Simple question!

    It depends on the strain. From seed to harvest, a strain can have a minimum growing time anywhere from 7-20 weeks.

    When do I transfer from dixie cups to larger pots?

    When seedlings start growing their three-bladed leaves, they get moved from plastic cups of inert seed starter soil into larger containers full of a nutritious vegging soil mix. It sounds like it's time.

    Opium to morphine or herion

    Really, the only thing that has to be done to create diacetylmorphine is letting morphine react with acetic anhydride. Everything else is just refining to make a more pure product. For the lowest grade H, low-quality opium is heated with acetic anhydride and dried- all done. The next step up is...

    help please

    Better off being all organic, not really. As we tell everyone asking about growing all organicly, chemicals are all over the natural world and don't need to be avoided religiously except to fit into someone's set of rules (e.g. FDA Organic guidelines). Talking about using organics over...

    No. There's no reason why you have to have a dark period. We and many other growers always use 24/0 for vegging plants, except for rooting clones. Roots grow fastest at night, so rooting clones and any other plants that you want to grow more roots should all have a dark period. 24hrs of light...

    My plants are messed up and i dont know what to do!!!!

    It's true that fixing major problems right before harvest can cause issues but you still want to have a firm diagnosis before repeating the problem in the next grow. Budsmoker- Fish Bone Meal is about the same as regular Bone Meal, just with more N. It's good stuff. Mix into the soil or add to...

    My plants are messed up and i dont know what to do!!!!

    Careful. Most pH meters start at pH 7 when there's nothing to measure. When a meter gives a reading at 7, it should be checked using a different tester to make sure it's giving any reading at all. Keep in mind that most probe-type soil meters need the soil to be very moist, almost mud, in order...

    Opium to morphine or herion

    When using Morphine, without having to convert Codeine to Morphine, all other steps are for purification. Reacting with Acetic Anhydride is the only step required to turn Morphine into Diacetylmorphine. You could mix Morphine & Acetic Anhydride in a spoon, heat it and create heroin. Acetic...

    building a grow room

    If you already have all of the lighting, ventilation and space needed for both tents, go ahead and use the small one for vegging. You'll have vegged plants ready when the flowering tent is harvested.

    Where is the intake air for the room coming from?

    Opium to morphine or herion

    You basicly just use Acetic Anhydride to convert Morphine into Diacetylmorphine, which is simply two morphine molecules stuck together. Codeine should be removed and the latex purified before acetylation to avoid acetylating the codeine. Codeine, having only one -OH group, is acetylated into...

    maybee a brilliant discovery ??? (lighting)

    Ultraviolet light is 10-400nm. Any UV light that puts out most of its light between 400 and 450nm isn't a very good UV light. Imo poor quality lights should be avoided. Only using the chlorophyll b reduces the amount of energy the plant absorbs by as much as half. That graph is online in a few...
