    DIY led grow

    I've got an available height of 55cm in my growspace (box) and hoping to be pulling 50g dry per harvest once I dial it in. I'd love to have 100cm.

    birds eye chilli

    Dorset Naga... I don't know if it was harder to grow or to swallow. Either way I ain't planting this sumbitch ever again. Wasn't worth it at all.

    Nuclear Fusion has occurred on Earth!

    Reads like good news to me. Nuclear fusion is a much cleaner alternative to fission and it could potentially save us.

    Calling all chemists and botanists! Let's put an end to overpriced nutes!

    Man, I don't know. Put some manure and compost (costs close to $2-5 per pot at MOST) together with some perlite and you have all the nutes you need imo.

    Produce Male Seeds?

    While I'm not totally convinced that fems are bad for breeding, and will be personally testing your theory on hermie pollen, you pose a good argument. I currently have 3 seeds germinating from my last grow, where I hit one of my plants with some polen from an ugly-ass hermie (to be fair to...

    JMD's #2 Indoor grow (hydroponic)

    Ah right, I thought it was a permanent setup. So... Why Netural White instead of Cool White? Is CW shit?

    JMD's #2 Indoor grow (hydroponic)

    A bit off-topic, but why do you prefer 2xNW and 1xWW? From my (admittedly limited) experience I thought 2ww x 1cw or nw would be the best setup, since ww provide more ~630nm for flowering.

    Passive cooled 3w DIY LED Halo

    So, I pulled the trigger on two lots of 20 3w leds. So I will have, in the next month or so, 20x 3w Warm White Epistars and 20x 3w Cool White. My reasoning is that my MK1 Hans panel already produces all the red and blue spectrums I need, and I can supplement the inbetweens with 20w warm...

    Passive cooled 3w DIY LED Halo

    Awesome, thanks for the reply. I was reading your grow with the missus a few days ago, we were very impressed with the halos. I'm thinking of supplementing lighting in a similar way on my next grow as well. Only smaller scale and not as good looking, probably.

    soils - what do you think?

    You could use a composted manure/compost/potting soil mix (30-30-40) if you have access to these ingredients. Should probably be the simplest possible soil to use and it doesn't need additional nutrients. Although it could use a tea like a couple of times per month, but it could probably do even...

    I would like to try pickandmixseeds.co.uk at some point. I would like to know their snag rates, too. Also, anyone know of any legit seedbanks that accept paypal?

    Passive cooled 3w DIY LED Halo

    Hey man, that's a cool setup. Would you use something like this http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3W-high-power-LED-PCB-200-220lm-easy-installation/713498607.html for supplemental lighting? I'm looking to buy some epistar 3w's from shops at aliexpress, there seem to be a lot of these going around...

    I just don't get LED's....Someone enlighten me

    Dude... Plasma TV's are so 00s. Don't you know that for this decade even the TV's are all led? LEDs are the future, you guys need to get over yourselves. Oh and by the way... The reason why most people supplement light on LED grows, is because THEY CAN. If you have almost always low temps, and...

    56w Hans panel, short box of LST. Currently at two months progress. Lots of pics!

    Harvested 2 days ago. Wet weights 73g & 55g + samplers and trim which are not counted. I was confounded by the slow maturation (trichs were still mostly white with a lot of clear and very few amber - at the same time, the plants were physically degrading. I've narrowed this down to ph imbalances...
