    NL 50 days into flower pop bottle, almost done?

    No veg at all. Rooted clones in 1" rockwool cubes. Once roots were showing, they went straight into the cups and under a 400HPS 12/12 for 60 days on the dot. I've since moved to waterfarm style systems for less plant count and same budage...but I miss the rows of budsicles! Peace - OGH

    SH Bucketeer System VS. Waterfarm

    I run waterfarms and DIY clones of them also....so I can comment that they rock like hell! I usually run 1 plant from seed or 2-4 clones per bucket and use an inverted tomatoe cage for training. Works wonderful. The main drawback for me is the "mist" or droplets that are created from the water...

    NL 50 days into flower pop bottle, almost done?

    Looking great man! I love 2-liters...here's a shot of some NL I grew early this year in 16oz. cups...and a 2 liter for comparison purposes. Got about 2 extra grams out the 2 liter...but the little cups all gave me about a Q each. Totally fun way of growing if you enjoy the daily maintenance...

    My First Grow!

    Maybe a 1/4 if it pumps up a little more while it finishes. But, never the less, it will be the best you smoked as you grew it yourself! Congrats! -OGH

    Input for Ionic Nutes needed

    If the bottles have the ratio and type of nutes labeled it may help relate them to other nute formulas. Good luck - OGH

    nutes?

    Most likely no, but more specifics on the soil you have would help. Peace - OGH

    Absorb your profits

    Interesting as I've given this much thought myself. What are some opinions on a safe, low key amount you can deal with in cash each month easily? I'm thinking 5K would be about the tops, but would love to hear other thoughts. My thoughts are paying things like gas, utilities, groceries...

    when should I flower?

    I think it mainly depends on how large a space you have as to how long you veg. Most plants will stretch 2-3 times their height while flowering....so it comes down to how tall you want them. I normally put my babies into flower when they are 6-8 inches tall as I want them to finish at or below...

    aerogarden general hydroponics nutrients HELP!

    I do hydro, not aero...but can't you do the Lucas formula in aero as well? For me it is 5ml Micro, and 10ml Bloom per gallon for the first 3 weeks, then 8ml Micro and 16ml Bloom for remainder. Sorry can't help more, but I love GH nutes :mrgreen: Peace - OGH

    seeds sex

    You can buy feminized seeds and you should get 99% females. Or you can buy regular seeds and get a mix of male and female. Apparently there are ways to "influence" the sex of regular seeds...but not sure how reliable those methods are. Peace - OGH

    Calling all Northern Lights "experts"

    I loved all the NL I grew...but never did any training as you speak, so I'm not much help. But, from what I did learn, as the NL's were my first non-bagseed grows last year...is that it is a tough as nails strain so you should be able to damn near abuse it and still get quality smoke. I...

    How much have you gotten with 400 watts

    Best I've done so far is 5.5oz. with Biggie Small under a 400 watt HPS. Here's a pic when they were at 48 days...I did 4 clones in a PowerEco (a slighter larger version of a Waterfarm): And here is a shot of the finished and 3 month cured bud: Peace and good luck - OGH

    Installing Reverse Osmosis in an Apartment

    You can hook up your RO to the kitchen sink faucet with the right adapter. You can also run it off your cold water line for your washer if you have a laundry room. Ask for a "Dual Y" connector if you want to do that as you can use your washing machine and RO at the same time...which makes my...

    R O water...zero PPM

    And every 90gals of water you make, you get to spend another $56+tax on more filters. Whats that? $.62 a gallon...sounds not so smart to my old brain. :-? If you personally think you are wasting water with an RO or an RO/DI system, then you need to read some more. The "waste" line can be used...

    58 Days flowering...Is it done?

    Looks great man. What I do sometimes when I'm at the timeline you are (60 days) I'll take me a nice top bud, clip and hang to dry while letting the plant keep going. In 3-5 days you'll have a nice nug to taste and start curing and get a VERY good idea of potency. Before you know it, you'll be...

    Is it REALLY worth it?

    And please don't think that "penalties 2-3 is the same as 20-30" or you may be in for a rude awakening. If you've no priors, that 2-3 will be nothing, that 20-30 will be something. Now, our definitions of somethings and nothings vary, but thats ok :-) There is also a different level of "good...

    What kind of water do you use in your system?

    Ro, and occasionally RO/DI. Thats all, ever, ever! I learned my lessons with shitty tap water.

    this hydro growing kit?

    That is not a hydro kit. It is put together for you to hand water your growbags with coco. They may have hydro kits, but that one is not it...though it does look pretty complete if you don't mind watering by hand.....which I would recommend anyway if it's your frst grow. Peace- OGH
