    BC Northern Lights Producer Grow #2

    Stillcantroll, I just drilled two holes in the back for each hose, and a small one the diameter of the Pump power cord. I cut the electric plug for the pump at the end and tossed it, and replaced it with a new removable three-prong plug. I used something similar to the pic below to attach the...

    Ancap, Did you end up using a lot of AN "additives" on this grow? I know you mentioned you'd be using "Final Phase." I used it the last two grows, and personally didn't notice any difference versus just using pH'd water. Others may have expierenced worthwhile results using Final Phase, but I...

    Ancap, When your time permits. Let's us know how the trichomes are looking on your grow. If I didn't mentioned it, just cut a small flower, or flower leaf into tiny pieces and view them on a flat surface. You'll never see squat holding it up to the plant like I tried to originally do!!

    stillcantroll, I'm using a "Current" water chiller model 2680. It's a 1/15th HP unit. You can find them and others like it on Craigslist. But I opted to just get a new one. I think I paid about $250 for it online. Someone on here once said something along the line "...a water chiller was on...

    BC Northern Lights Producer Grow #2

    I think most growers would agree that a mix of "cloudy and Amber" colored trichomes is what you want. As the plant grows, and you view it's flower's or flower leaf under a microscope, the trichomes at first appear clear. You can see through them. At this point the plant is not ready. The...

    Thanks for the tip on the pic uploads! As you know most Strains average about 8 weeks but I look at the trichomes with a Radio Shack cheapo microscope. When they look like the attached pic, I chop. I just looked at my last grow log notes and 1 plant was chopped at 50 days (c99) and other 2 on...

    BC Northern Lights Producer Grow #2

    I had a "seed grow" last year and have enough c 99 seeds to last me forever - at least many years. I got them originally through Joey Weed last spring. I let a M pollinate my F. I just got tired of spending $$$ and hoping they arrived stealth-like. So I have plenty to germinate at one time...

    Thanks Ancap for allowing me to add my comments. I'm here to learn as well and to improve on each grow. With regard to my experience... Since I have no luck with clones I grow from seed. Seedling time or clone time to me is the same. The only downside of course is not knowing if the...

    BC Northern Lights Producer Grow #2

    Looking Good Ancap! Nice grow. As a proud owner of a NL Bloombox myself. I've found, at least in my case, I get bigger buds and bushier plants by limiting the total plants in the tub. When I tried utilizing all the netpots the plants tend to grow straight up - as your experiencing - rather...

    Al B....I wanted to let you know that I now have my Root rot issues under control. I did increase my H2o2 dosage to equal 500 ppm (5ml/L using 10% H2o2) and my rez is now clean and clear. I actually have new WHITE roots growing out of the medium and the brown roots aren't so brown anymore. I...

    First post here but I've been a member/reader for about 1 year. Props to all that have helped Newbie's like me! Question: I've used Sensizyme before and understand the benefits from it, but I'm staying away from it at this time and just want to keep my 10 gallon Rez Clear and Clean. I...
