    Clones taco when dome is removed

    Yes I feel it is bad...which is why I do things the way I do. 2 weeks at 100% humidity is a recipe for stem rot and fungal infections. Plants like to breathe free...not remain stifled in a damn dome. The plants have to be stressed a bit to motivate them. I just choose to do it early on to...

    Clones taco when dome is removed

    Skoal, I start from day 1 of cloning to prepare them. Dome off for a few hours. Next day even more. I think they get dome dependent. JD

    Hi Sir420, More complicated then just turning the light. They have to have carbon rings with brushes to transmit electricity as the light turns. Cords don't handle that well. JD

    Clones taco when dome is removed

    Hi Skoal for what it's worth...I don't bother even looking for roots. I put cuttings into rockwool or peat pucks...whatever's handy. Then by the time they can go domeless, I plant them into a solo cup of coco. Helps keep the rockwool more moisture stable. I run 40+ humidity and can take the...

    Nothing beats a Zig Zag,what's your favorite papers?

    Thanks Actusity...but I'll keep using my old fingers as long as I can. I think of it as physical therapy. I wanted to make a correction on the Top papers. Many guys who roll their own cigarettes use them. I just bought a pack and the way they are packaged: no fold, glued along one edge...

    Any tips for my planned setup

    Hi Anon, I'm a sativa fan too. Never grown in a tent so hard to comment on that. Did want to offer an idea that sprouted from by brain yesterday. I have a batch of seedlings that are my first attempt at Nugbucket/Nebula style manifold training. While I was checking them...I realized that...

    Hi Rky...When I read aquarium tubing I just assumed clear. Of course you used opaque tubing. My bad. Getting my Hydrofarms set up using your runoff mod. If I ever find my camera usb cable I'll send you a pix. Cheers, JD

    Paying cash to seedsman, why i am sending my payment to Co. USA?

    Hi Hack, There's lots of business in the US for those seed sellers. I think they're just trying to make it easier for US customers. Last month I bought some seeds from a UK seed celler...payment went to a US address. Seeds arrived promptly. We live in an international community now... JD

    Cannabutter disappointment

    Was that your first butter attempt? How did you squeeze or extract the butter from the cooked soaked ganja. My friend uses cheesecloth. I find I can get more return with a stronger material. Tee shirt material is what I use. JD

    Need help with automated top fed system asap!

    Dude...you are severely overcomplicating things. Emitters are for a different sort of system...high pressure aeroponics. You just want a water/feed delivery system. I am going to run the tube to a stake and stick a 1/4" Tee on the end so the solution goes left and right. JD Far as pump...

    Need help with automated top fed system asap!

    Most setups I see have the splitter riser (1/2" pvc pipe) sticking up in the middle of the garden. That way each line can be close to the same length...making balancing easier... JD

    Need help with automated top fed system asap!

    PSB, Those splitters come with an unvalved unit but also have one with a valve on each output. That allows you to balance the plants feedings. Even possible to do different sized pots. On the psi question...not sure if there's a direct conversion. Just look at the manufacturers specs. If...

    Your latest seed purchase?

    Hi Eastcoast...well at least you don't have to lurk in dark alleys to accommodate your addiction. lol Not personally familiar with those except the G13 Skunk. I have a G13 Widow growing right now. Hope those do well for you. Regarding the Golden Tiger I posted about. Seeds arrived promptly...

    Need help with automated top fed system asap!

    Hi Psb, Went back and re-read. Apparently when you wrote "going on vacation in a month" I read that as for a month. Reading too fast. 4 or 5 days is totally doable. While growing in Iowa a decade ago...I had to be away from my plants for three weeks...so I had to be creative. I set up a...

    Starting a Mother

    Smokey, How many clones are you going to need once you put her in service? I'd be tempted to take some cuts off her now and start over. The one thing you want to do to make a good clone Momma is to cut clones off her. Even if you don't need them. Just get the plant focused on new branch...
