    Question about flushing and using high-PH tap water

    Hello folks, Quick question about flushing. I have a grow going in a 4-gallon smart pot. I am in the 12th week of Veg and will be flipping to flower this weekend. I use LED grow lights so have been supplementing my grow with Calimagic (Cal/Mag plus nitrogen) every other watering. My lamps...

    Well, here I am a few days later. The new growth coming in looks more 'normal'. I'm thinking of transplanting to a three gallon smart pot tomorrow. What do you folks think?

    Grow cabinet made from pool-side storage box - Check this out!

    I've often thought about putting a speed controller on it but in the end I felt it wasn't really necessary for my application. The blower is not very loud at all, considering it is completely inside the cabinet. The hollow plastic walls of the box seem to insulate the sound quite well. The...

    Grow cabinet made from pool-side storage box - Check this out!

    The blower is a Dayton model 1TDN5. It's rated at 53cfm, which is more than sufficient for the volume of my cabinet of less than 30 square feet. You can buy this blower on Amazon for less than $65. I then used a 4-inch PVC "pipe cap" as an adapter, mounting it to the intake flange on the...

    Seedling deformed, leaves look mottled / streaked - Really need advice please

    I just started this indoor / basement grow inside of my DIY cabinet (you can see the cabinet here.). The strain I'm growing is Blueberry Headband (feminized seed purchased from Attitude almost 2 years ago). I planted the seed in a Solo cup on Dec 1st; she then broke soil on Dec 6th. I am...

    Grow cabinet made from pool-side storage box - Check this out!

    I have this home-grown grow box that I constructed from a pool-side storage box. I bought the box at my local home improvement store for around $125.00. I first added some swivel wheels to the bottom so that I can move the box around easily. I painted the inside flat wide to get as much...

    PH or magnesium lockout?

    Sir - In reference to your post, I also believe in the KISS method. But shouldn't you always use some sort of Cal-Mag supplement when watering to prevent nutrient lockout and allow the plants to uptake nutrients from the soil? I'm talking about starting from seed and continuing to harvest...

    Boveda Pack Question - if shipped half-assed are they ruined?

    I just ordered some from Amazon and they came in a zip-lock bag. Found it a little surprising but they are nice and pliable and ready for the jars.

    Stop all nutrients two weeks before harvest and allow at least three days after a final watering before harvesting. At maturity, at least 70% of the white pistils should have turned orange/brown and have started to withdraw. Most trichomes should be milky Goal is 10% clear (immature), 80%...

    watering under a net ???

    I have one of these watering jugs that I use with my scrog. To extend the reach under the net, I simply slip on a two-foot piece of 3/4" PVC pipe (left-over from building my scrog net). It slides on about three or four inches until it makes a seal with the watering jug spout and I am good to go.

Just based on the little bit of reading I've done since your post, I've learned quite a bit about DIF and effects of the temperature difference during lights-on (day time) as compared to lights-off (night time). Since this particular...

    Oklahoma and Nebraska suck balls!!

    And maybe that's exactly what it will take to get cannabis removed from schedule I. At the least, it brings the subject of scheduling to the discussion. And it's discussion that's needed.

    Flowering stretch with many colas

    I have a question about the growth spurt that occurs during the first few weeks of flowering. I know that one should expect an increase of height of anywhere between 50% and 100% or more, depending on the strain, growing conditions, etc. For the purpose of discussion, let's say you have a...

    PLEASE HELP!! wk 6 look like they are dying

    Please correct me if I'm wrong here but I hope to help. You state that the PH of your water going in is about 6.5 and the run-off is about 5.6 (.9 deviation). If you want your soil PH to stay around 6.5 or so, wouldn't you want to adjust the PH of the water going in to 6.5 plus the .9...
