    It wasn't all bad While that was going on, the organics seemed, although one was starting to yellow out while the synthetic lockout was happening. Here are some shots around week 5. I'm at week 17 now on the Lemon Thai so have more posting to do. I'll be back again soon!

    Let's Jump Ahead Shall We? I vegged in the 7 gal pots for another week, and then got worried. I didn't know the strains and building the flood tables took a good foot away from my height. I also got paranoid of the questionable genetics I was running. I decided to kill off the seeds I knew...

    More looking back. By this time the temps had gotten too much. I was into summer now and lunch was sending me up to 31c for 3 to 4 hour chunks if I left the door closed. I cut a new hole and hooke up the air cooled hoods. It made a 2 to 3 degree difference since I was only pulling in room temp...

    Transplant 2 Here is transplant 2 into 7 gal pots. I had been watering coco/perlite mixed with Gaia Power Bloom 2-8-4 for weeks and it smelled like the forest floor. I lined my pots with this, then mixed some of the 4-4-4 coco with this and added an inner layer and transplanted in after...

    Again, looing back at those photos, I see I've now expanded the pre-framed intake. I was having trouble getting the air-flow right, and thought if I lowered the restriction on intake, the 90 degree elbows and down sized exhaust might function better.

    Looking good! Subbed. What's your room like? Looks like you might be growing in a sunroom, or a fancy grow room with tile floor? :bigjoint:

    My First Cannabis Transplant! So I am a hobby gardener and have no fear of transplanting, root pruning, and general plant maintenance, but when I thought back to my first grow 20ish years ago in DWC, I popped seeds in rockwool and placed them in netpots with hydroton. I've pruned cannabis, and...

    Hrm That's Not Right! So looking at the pics I just posted, I see I am showing off shiny blue light. Some time into the grow, I picked up 2 Spectralux 7,500K MH bulbs for $50 each from a local grow shop. I swapped them out, and did seem to notice some improvement in growth, however this change...

    And so I grow So I can't keep this stuff on the bare concrete floor, and I'm not actually sure what my plan is regarding the floor at this time in the room build (or even now as I type this, I'd love to epoxy, but I have other things to worry about for now......). Oh how I would love to be...

    Back To the Beginning After discussion with my wife, it was agreed I would be allowed to re-purpose the unfinished bathroom in the basement left by the previous owners. The stipulation is that everything plant related must be contained inside the area except for any supplies that could safely...

    What is the minimum distance an intake on a grow cabinet/tent should be from the passive intake of the room it is in?

    Well, I think I have a concept of a plan that puts them as far apart as I am able to. So if there is a minimum I was shooting for hopefully I am over it, if not, I can't go any further anyway!

    What is the minimum distance an intake on a grow cabinet/tent should be from the passive intake of the room it is in?

    I have an 8x8 room with negative pressure and passive intake. I only used 4x8 of it to flower under 2 x 600watt lamps, and the other half was walk-in work space. I had some heat issues, and don't really need to flower out an entire 4x8 space every few months for my needs, so I'm scaling back...

    Grow Attempt: - 2 Nefertiti clones from Pyramid seeds I grew one of these synthetic using Future Harvest line up, and one organic using Perlite/Coco and Gaia green (all purpose, then power bloom) only. The synthetic threw naners like crazy, and I spent some time picking them off, then gave up...

    Hi There, First journal, not sure I need a discussion thread but made one here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/my-unintentionally-difficult-return-to-growing-the-journal-discussion.1035039/ I was a member of overgrow.com back at what seems to my memory like the late 90's early 00's.

    My unintentionally difficult return to growing - The Journal (Discussion)

    Tonight I give my paranoid old school self a rest and have decided to over-share. I'm starting a journal as I have learned that what I know isn't much, research isn't everything, and my lack of experience has been humbling. I'm creating this now and will link to it from my journal as a place...

    I need help. My light shriveled the trichomes ?

    Sounds like normal development. If you are still worried after the above answers, turn on some normal full spectrum lighting, wait for your LED to turn off and take pictures under normal lighting, then turn the lights out and share those pics so we can all see the true color. Also, search this...

    Help... someones smelt my grow :(

    This is my best attempt at a sincere level headed response. I am not in the UK, I am in Canada. If my research and understanding is correct, growing cannabis is illegal where you are with no personal exemptions. Here in canada, before legalization, when someone was charged with cultivation, as...
