I was just talking to a botanist who gave me the most common sense method to get rid of spider mites. Apparently they love a good melon more than anything. So, you take a piece of Cantaloupe and put it atop a steak over each plant. Leave it for the day and when you go back all the mites will...

I am really starting to worry about the splotchy leaves. The only thing I could find in the sticky that looked like it was the mg deficiency but I have no idea? The brown spots dont really show up well in the pics and I had already cut some of the worst leaves off. Do you all think the...

I have posted about this one in my journal (see sig) but here are some updated pics. The only thing I could find in the sticky that looked like it was the mg deficiency but I have no idea? The brown spots dont really show up well in the pics and I had already cut some of the worst leaves off...

Hi Ricky, I have something similer going on, you can see more in my journa. A lot of the same symptoms, brown spots yellowing and the "chewed" look. Could it be a magnesium deficiency? That is the closest thing I can find int the sticky with the sample pics.

So you would keep twisting the same branch over and over? How many times out (maximum)?

Hello, right now I have a CAN 66 filter hooked directly to a 6" (max 296 cfm) can fan blowing clean air from inside my tent to the room outside. I also have an 8'' Max fan (max 678 cfm) pulling air from outside the tent, throught two 600w cool tubes and through about25 feet of ducting. I am...

I should add that I dont have big space issues horizontally as I am only doing 6-8 plants in a 4.5x9 tent.

So, when you guys supercrop - does the vertical growth pretty much stop? I'm trying to figure out when I'm going to do it - right now I'm almost six weeks from sprout, my tallest is about 11" (technically she's a little taller but I wired her down some to keep them more even. The reason I'm...

Anyone have any ideas? Is there some pest that I can't see? It must move real quick and chomp like hell. But - what about those light colored scrape looking things that eventually turn into holes?

Hello, this post is solely in reference to the all the sudden troubled Alaskan Ice. Here are some update pictures. The chewing and scarring seem to be getting worse and still no sign of any bugs. The scarring that you see down the middle of the leaves is present on a couple of the other...

These are updated pics showing several of the plants, the sickly AI, and what it looks like with just the led's on. I think that I have hit on something with the LED's - I can set up timers to shut off my cool tubes (and the ventalation) but still leave the leds on while the tent fills with co2...

Alright, after pleading for help randomly in other sections I am finally starting a journal. Here's the summary Lighting - 600 watt (dimmable) hid's mh right now and 6 led growmaster bars for experimentation's sake, at the time the ballasts are at 75% - so this should be aabout 450w...

I will definitely be on the lookoutfor that one!

Whatever you doing seems to work! I be the air space between pots really helps thats a good idea. Bro, if I lived near you I'd spring for the co2 just to see what could happen in there!

also, do you use co2? What are your temps like? I used to know a guy that got 1+ per plant and he said hes temps were never below 85, he did all kinds of crazy stuff - big rubbermaid tubs (like 67 litres) fed them as soon as they had legs etc.

Thanks, pardon my ignorance here, but what is the pipe for - is some kind of drain system? Also, is it just the fan leaves that you pull off? Obviously you get great results so I'm not questioning you here - but what purpose do those leaves serve and is there a down side to pulling them off...

I was given a miwaukee ma957 rugulator with bubble counter - anyone know how to use this calculator with one of these? Or is it junk for growing.

I actually took the 2nd one - don't know what all happened in that bed but I think I recognize the look on his face.

Wow, your grows are amazing! I know you do clones but do you think that the same trimming technique should be applied to seedlings? When you say you tie down a little every few days, do you mean a few branches at a time, or you tie them all down and keep lowing them incrementally? When you...
