Well, when comparing mylar to flat white, probably not going to see that big of an actual difference, however, if you were to paint your walls a dark color like blue or brown, I think you would see a decrease in vigor of the plants in the room, but I can't be sure as I have never done it :-p

From what I know, the white sheeting diffuses light more than the shiny coverings. The shiny ones reflect direct light. Sounds like the direct light thing is a good idea, right? Heres the issue. When you use reflective materials that dont diffuse light very well, you reflect colored light. When...

Thanks for the link, Jim. Thats a nice looking plant you got there. I need to spend some time in my CFL cab trying to make it look tidy like yours. mine is all rigged together like a refugee living in an ally trying to grow some nugs for the winter. Cords hanging all over and such... Thats ok...

or maybe hes just too busy tending his new garden to worry about showing it to you :)

SoG just describes the method of growing all of your bud in one even canopy. I don't think you need to have a certain number of plants, or a large area of floor space covered to earn the title, bro. That thread didn't really show a SoG the way I understand one to work. He just crammed a...

My idea is to use low watt bulbs mounted to a piece of plywood which I would hang above a grow area. Each row of plants will be 1 week older than the one before it(in a 4x4 grid), so they should make a consistent slope for the piece of plywood to follow when I hang it on a slope to match...

Why do I not see anyone growing SOG with CFL? These bulbs don't penetrate well, right? They have to be close to the plants, and you generally need a lot of them? Sounds like they made them for a SOG to me, so I'm just wondering why I'm not seeing it on the grow forums. Is there some terrible...

Is that a DIY box you have there? What is that reflective material you used?

As it turns out, I just don't have the time to keep up with this thread and the picture thing and all that. Big apologies to anyone subbed. Maybe some other time when I have the time. The plants are, however, doing well. thanks guys. see ya

my thoughts exactly. Thats good stuff, Mugan Thanks for sharing it with us.

Not a bit. Thanks.

I'm in the process of improvising a couple of seperate cabinet type spaces for those plants. I want to grow them separate for the sake of experimenting with the CFLs. I have never done any training on plants before, and I want to try to have some fun with it and the lights. I moved the light...

Yes you do...you are just arguing two different points. hahahaha. I want to clear this up. I'm feeling like an idiot that I didn't see this before. Rzza is saying that you cannot take shitty genetics and grow ideal with it. I think we can all agree that a plant is only as good as it genetic...

I'll be back. I haven't had as much time to keep up with this as I though I would when I started. Things are a bit hectic right now. Lost my job and just started a new one, and trying to get in to a new routine, and lots of other crap going on too. I should have an update by the end of the...

I know a guy who tops his plants during flower, about 2 weeks in and he consistently crops about twice as much off of the ones he tops like that compared to the ones he grows exactly the same save for the topping. when he told me that I said he was full of shit, but he proved it to me. Thats...

This part I agree with, but it really is a matter of opinion. This part is just not true at all, no matter how you slice it.

I don't know how the test strips for a pool work, so I can't really say on that one, but you can get simple pH meters for like 5 bucks at any hardware store. The roots circling the container are a good thing if you are going to transplant, as that builds a good root mass, and that means a more...

Absolutely not. I believe in the science of genetics, as it is proven. What I don't think I made clear (which is my fault) is the fact that when you get bad weed, it doesnt necessarily mean it is bad because of the genetics. Also, I'm not saying there is no bad genetics out there being sold as...

My girl says I'm being mean to you. I'm sorry if you feel that way too. I don't mean to be an asshole. I guess I just have an abrasive personality.

no. the weed wasnt worth taking pictured of. it seriously was $20 for a quarter if that tells you anything. I mean, it gets you a buzz, but it doesnt taste good, and smells like cat piss. I wont even smoke it. My girl buys it because she smokes too damn much and i wont let her decimate my stash...
