    in an apartment

    I grew in an apartment for 6 months. I purchased a 4x4 tent and carbon filter for the smell. I didn't have any closets available so I used the tent. My manager never checked on my apartment. I grew on the 2nd floor on a 3 story apartment complex. I boarded up one of my windows and cut two 6"...

    64 Days Are They Ready Yet?

    There's always debates about when to harvest. When trichs are cloudy, some amber, or when the receding hairs and swollen calyxes. It's all up to the person growing. Whatever, they like. Different harvest times/strains for different types of highs. There's always threads debating when is the...

    How to clone?? And can i do it off a plant during flowering stage?

    You can do it at the flowering stage. Not sure how far into flowering it's still good for. I do it from my veg plants. I use a 3gal dwc setup. 3gal bucket, air stone, root hormones, super thrive, and nutes. I just clip and place it right at water level. A week later I get roots. I spray them...

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    Here's a couple pictures of what my current grow looks like. I didn't take a picture of the left side of the tent because my ballast is magnetic on that side. I had to top two of the plants again 3 weeks into flowering because they stretch to much. These are all Super Lemon Haze.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    My tent is 8x4x7 and is setup inside my garage. Portable A/C unit is 8,000 btu. The A/C unit is setup outside my tent but I used ducting to connect it to the top of the tent. The reason why it's outside the tent is because there isn't enough room on the inside. Also, the hot air coming out of...

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    Thanks for the info. I will try it out again with some insulation. Also, I think I'm going to pick up a small dehumidifier and set it up in the tent. I would like to drop the humidity.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    So I set it up that way this last night at lights out. It ran for 3 1/2 hours with lights on today. The bulbs were perfectly fine. My temps dropped a 2-3F only. However, my humidity went up from 41% to 57%. I noticed the ducting on the A/C where it connects to the lights got really wet. So I...

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    I was thinking about doing it later today when I get home but I think the bulbs will be too hot. Don't want to take that risk. I'll just do it tomorrow morning and I'll keep you posted.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    You're right. the bulbs won't actually be cold. It would only lower the degrees a little and keep the air around it cooler. I might just try it tomorrow morning.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    If the bulbs are cool the entire time. I don't think condensation would be much of a problem. I know when the bulbs are really hot and cold water gets on them they blow. But, if the A/C unit turns on at the same time the bulbs do. I think it might be able to work without problems.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    That is exactly why I['m trying to figure out if it's safe. I was thinking about just doing it tomorrow morning. But, not 100% because of that and that I won't be home for a while to check to see if they do blow or not.

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    I have the lights in two hoods. Have my fan already pulling the air out through my scrubber and the A/C blowing over the hoods. But, my temps are still high around 85-87F. Last year around this time it was a lot hotter outside. My room temps went up to 97F and I added the A/C unit over the hoods...

    A/C unit connected to Lights. Any issues?

    A/C blows the air by itself. It will go straight into the lights and at the other end there is also a high velocity fan moving air the same direction. I'm pretty sure this isn't a problem for the bulbs but just wanted to double check. With the A/C unit, it might make the bulbs a little colder...

    I don't add it to the water I feed the girls. I put it in a spray bottle and spray them on the soil. If you look at the bottle it tells you how much to use.

    I love Trichomes. A Few Flushing & Harvesting Questions

    There's been some debate over when the trichs are ready. They say amber is better and some say cloudy. Depends what you like. There is a post somewhere on this forum (can't find it right now) but they provide some scientific articles that says when the trichs turn amber the THC is degrading and...

    Pest Control Help

    Like lthopkins i use Go Gnats works really well. It has a smell to it but works great. Also, sometimes I noticed it doesn't get rid of all the eggs. After a week or so I noticed some of them come back. I heard after you spray Go Gnats put some regular sand on top of the soil. This will rip...

    I personally don't continue veg nutes. When i flip the switch to 12/12. I water them with plain water for the first time only. After that, I feed them with my bloom nutes. This seems to work well for my setup.
