    Early veg state...watering is compressing the soil...add more soil?

    Thanks! Do you think I should give nutes in a couple days even though this is Miracle Grow soil? I figured I should wait a bit to start any nutes since there should already be a decent amount in the MG soil, especially since I've only done a full soaking watering twice (it was just small/light...

    Early veg state...watering is compressing the soil...add more soil?

    Sure! Here's a couple quickies. Raspberry Cough is the first, Northern Lights is the second. Thanks for the offer for other input. My gut says these are not stretching. I've had the lights very close and they both seem to be staying very compact. Nodes seem very close compared to some pics I've...

    Early veg state...watering is compressing the soil...add more soil?

    Hey guys. I'm about two weeks into veg of my first grow and have about four inches of growth on two plants. Only had to give a full watering a couple times thus far but I've noticed the soil has compressed a bit after each watering. I figured this would happen since the potting soil is so light...

    How important is it for the fan to be on?...Is it just mostly for odor control?

    Hey gang - So I have my room set up and I have a computer fan/vent coming in from and several feet away another going back out to the crawl space. How important is it that these fans are consistently on? Are they mostly for temperature control (shouldn't be an issue...using CFLs) and odor...

    What do you do when you have to leave town for several days or a week?

    So after finding this link (http://www.ehow.com/how_5159665_make...ng-system.html) I gave it a try in a pot of dry dirt and let it sit overnight just to see what it would do. It works like a charm! Judging by what I've seen just from this one test, I'd say this is a winner -- good for anyone...

    What do you do when you have to leave town for several days or a week?

    What do you all do when you're the only one that tends to your crop (in a small 2-4 plant grow situation) and you need to leave town for a couple days or a week? In most cases, veg and flowering, I'd imagine the lighting situation would probably be okay, but what about water?! Anything else I'm...

    Any risk to growing other plants and herbs around the good stuff

    Is there any risk in a small indoor grow room to grow some regular legal herbs like basil, cilantro, oregano, etc. next to the good stuff? Mind you, full attention would be on the bud, but I figured I may as well grow some pizza/dinner toppings while I'm at it.
