    Replacing my drip system. Which way to go?

    You make some very valid points

    Looking to add side lighting

    Run the cabon filter outside of the room. Mine just sits in middle of the basement running all the time. Probably not the most ideal, or effecient, but it keeps the ordors down. It doesn't have to be in, or pull from inside, the room.

    Replacing my drip system. Which way to go?

    You say yourself that you suck at building things. I don't know why you'd want to get an even more complicated system. Aero is fascinating, thought about it myself, but too prone to failure and vulnerable to power outages, or pump failures. NFT isn't that hard but really offers no advantage over...

    Replacing my drip system. Which way to go?

    Aero and nft are the two chief competitors of the hydro world... Lol. I think flood and drain is better then both. I lose power every time there's so much as a stiff wind or a clap of thunder. Both aero and nft... Not even a possibilty. To the OP, just use a reuseable media.

    Looking to add side lighting

    T5's would be my choice, cheap, good spectrum and not too much heat. But if you want to go drop a bunch of coin on leds for some side lighting... your choice, to each his own.

    Clone questions?!?!?!

    You cut them too big. They have no root system yet and they cannot support that amount of growth. Leaves that big need roots. You cut the tips off the leaves for this reason, to slow the transpiration process. The same reason you want the humidity dome, is the same reason for taking smaller...

    Air conditioner question

    Why is a window unit out of the question? Just put one in your window, cool the room, then use the cool air from the room to circulate through, and cool, your tent. The heat from the tent will be cooled by the air conditioner, etc... . If worried about odor put run a carbon scrubber somewhere in...

    Help, Groundhogs, moles,etc.

    Chicken wire underground to keep moles and shit out. A raised bed helps make this easier. But it sounds like you need a fence to keep deer, rabbits or something away from your plants.

    grow room made from space blankets?

    Flat white paint would probably work better. That reflective mylar can cause hot spots. You want refractive, not reflective.

    light placement

    Glad I could help.

    light placement

    Right on... Another reason I would go with 2 groups of three is that it would also let you run two different stages of flowering, to help have a somewhat perpetual harvest. Put the first 3 in, then a month later, put the other 3 in under their own light. Both lights should be adjustable to...

    Dual Angled Lights?

    I've had to do this before to deal with crazily overgrown plants, basically ran out of room for the lights and had to move 'em to the corners of the tent, pretty much just like your drawing.

    light placement

    Then I would either make 2 groups of 3 and place a light over both. Or put all 6 together and space both lights accordingly. The 2 groups of 3 would allow better working space around all your plants.

    light placement

    What type of reflector are you planning on using? This will make a difference. What method of growing are you going with? I would center 3, or 4, plants under each light, space each light/plants so that the plants come close but don't overlap, space both your lights evenly over all plants. How...

    Germination techniques

    Shiva, post: 11653156, member: 2643"]Thanks dirty.... Think I'm worrying too much about it... Temp in my grow room has hit 84 degrees now so think it's ready to start the little blighters germinating! Exciting times! Yep. Just waiting for my white widow beans. Germinating is easy. Its the first...

    Germination techniques

    Put them in the middle of a wet, folded wash cloth. Put them somewhere dark and somewhat warm, at least warmer than cooler. Wait 2-3 days, they will start to "pop", then you just put them in the medium of your choice. This has probably a 90-95+% success rate for me. Its not hard, and don't let...

    Americans Favor Bush Over Obama

    He does nothing. He is a puppet. He has no say or control over what happens. The idea of the president running the country is a complete sham. And... if you're refferring to Iran they have just as much right to use nuclear power as anybody else, they won't be able to enrich their own uranium, it...

    Americans Favor Bush Over Obama

    Sounds good to me. However, I feel all is lost. We would need something just short of an all out revolution at this point. Maybe Jade Helm will start that revolution? We are all witnesses to the genecide of America.

    Americans Favor Bush Over Obama

    Thats probably about right. Most Americans are freakin retarded. Bush was a complete freakin idiot. Obama is the anti-christ but.. still better than Bush.
