My answer: No, don't completely submerge your roots. Yes, leave some of the roots out of the water. Once the root system is mature and established, I keep the water level 3-6 inches below the bottom of my netpots.

I didn't mean to come off sounding like a "dick" so I apologize. I do however still want to make clear that whether or not you were accurately quoting Ed Rosenthal... Styrofoam is not "nearly 100% reflective." (that's all I want to clarify) Styrofoam does absorb light and because Styrofoam has a...

Curing... is not drying. The point of curing is not to get your buds dry, it's to further breakdown cellular material, resulting is a smoother smoke and more unique bouquet. It's more of a connaisseur practice where your goal is to extract the finer nuances from your herb. Not everyone has the...

HAHA! It's made with real bits of panther... so you know it's good! I promise, this is the last time I'll say this... Use Flat White Paint if you can't get or afford Mylar :p :leaf:

400 Club! Great work guys! There are some sweet shots and great grows in here already. Here's my entry. 400w cab grow from start to finish: Which resulted in this: :leaf:

Here I go again... :p My feeling is don't use tap water unless you know what's in it. You can request this information from your municipal water district. In fact... my water district makes their yearly water analysis report available for download directly from their website. My water...

Please don't try this... The poor guy would be dead in no time at all.

"Ed" says styrofoam is "nearly 100% reflective" and is more reflective than mylar and flat white paint? If you're talking Ed Rosenthal, I have a few more quotes of his regarding reflective walls too... Interesting... in that last quote he actually says to coat styrofoam with either mylar or...

That canopy doesn't look too dense, I wouldn't trim any leaves at all... just tuck them under or around other branches or buds. :leaf:

Hmm, dug up an old thread? Well, to add to the op's comments on the stink of Big Bud. My batch doesn't smell much in powder form, but as soon as I mix it with some water... It smells like piss, literally. But a little stronger, like if someone was dehydrated and took a super concentrated piss...

How funny, I actually typed all this info out in my original post and decided to delete it b4 I posted. Shoulda stuck with my guns. :p Here is my most recent harvest and how it was dried and cured: (still curing) Drying: takes place in the same cab the plant is grown in. The cab has...

Okay so check this out, my harvest before last I had a similar issue with lack of that typical dank smell from my buds. My logs show that I was running a relatively high pH range @ 5.9-6.1. Then in my last grow I was running at a similar range and noticed the same thing... lack of smell in the...

LOL! Oops, it wasn't supposed to be the same pic but it is. I posted the wrong one... HA! Nice catch... I'll get the right one up as soon as I dig it up.

This is an excerpt from the Overgrow : GrowFAQ Please read all of it if. It could possiblly answer all the questions you have about reflective surfaces in your grow room. I wouldn't claim this information to be 100% accurate but it's one of the better researched and updated articles I...

This might sound like a whacky question, but do you remember what pH you were running at during flower, especially the last few weeks? I've had some experience with the same thing and I'm not sure if pH was the only factor... but as soon as I figured it out and dialed it in... I got the danky...

Dude, just get yourself some flat white paint and call it a day :p It has good reflective properties, will look more professional and will be much cleaner (and easier to clean) than the Doritos Bag quilt you're dreaming of.

With my very limited experience drying and curing (about 2 lbs of herb over 3 harvests) it's my opinion that a slower dry (8-10 days) paired with a proper cure (3 week minimum) produces a nicer bouquet of aromas and an overall smoother smoke than shorter (2-4 day) dry times. In fact I believe...

Excuse me guys. I'm thinking of starting a gasoline company. I heard there's a way I can add water to my gasoline so it looks like you're getting more gas than there really is? I'm not being greedy, all gas dealers have ripped you off at some point in your life. I'm just asking a question...

Sorry to say, but imho if you cracked the shell yourself (and they've been soaking in water for 2 dyas)... they're probably dead. In the most extreme circumstances, I believe it's okay to "skuff" the outermost seed casing with sandpaper or something abrasive to allow water to more easily...

One of these pre-flowers turned into a male... and one turned into a female... can you tell which one's which? :leaf:
