    spotted leaves

    Some pictures would be nice but it seems like you have a spider mite problem. I say problem because most growers use the term infestation losely and frankly it scares people to death. To do a quick test look at the leaves that have the spots. Look under the leaves with a magnifying glass. You...

    ventilation

    Stick with the 600 you will be very happy. As far as the blackout material goes go to lowes or home depot and get the black painters cloth. It might be called something else but it is what they use in the haunted houses to block light and such. If you are going to run a flowering room and a...

    when to flower

    It all depends on the size of the space you have or the yield you want to expect from your plants. I would say minimum 30 days of vegging. IMO

    What nuts to use?

    Fox farm Big Grow and Big Bloom comes highly reccommended and is realively cheap compared to other brands. Stay away from the miracle grow for the most part. Spend the extra $20 bucks and get something worth your time.

    ventilation

    As 1koolguy said don't cool your lights that way you will use the heater less often because the light itself will heat that small of a room for the most part. Insulation is the key. for instance my power went out for 3 hours just now. The outside temp was 25* because I insulated the portion of...

    ventilation

    Alright so my first reccomendation would be to get a heater with thermostat that works. I have about the same size room and what I did was make a few smaller rooms with the black plastic that painters use. Doing this will raise the temperature in the smaller room compared to the ouside air. This...

    Leaf light yellow speckled, mushrooms ?

    I have got another question. When I have been watering I haven't been letting the water run off much, or any at all. Is this a bad thing ? I'm thinking I am going to give all the plants a good flush before I start using my nutes.

    Leaf light yellow speckled, mushrooms ?

    Alright so I corintined the 3 plants that were infested, I did a little test with them to see if I could get rid of the mites. I sprayed the plants with a 1:5 alcohol to water mix then let them sit outside in the 35* temperature for two hours. I'm curious to see if the cold climate would kill...

    Need some help with yellowing leaves!
