lol about the fizzy water comment. Read about what potassium bicarbonate does to the cell walls of fungi and their spores. Sounds like that epidemiological decay may have already been passed down that gene line... Greencure works as directed. Im using 1/4 dose with a total win 6 weeks into...

FYI anyone who tells you that PM is systemic (within the plant) doesn't know their ass from their elbow. PM is not just a MJ problem, in fact grape growers deal with it all the time. It is a fungus. Fungi are NOT systemic they spread via spore and only penetrate the 1st layer of the plant. The...

So water it is for the next week. That will put it into week6 =( It is a 8 week strain so am I just effed in the nute department now since it would normally be flushing time?? This is not my first grow, my last was in college, just a closet with 4 ft flouros and a muffen fan. No PH, no proper...

Cool! thx! Ill hit em with just water and back down on the Nute schedule also I'll look into the suger thing. It is odd that the v is so bad, it doesnt change after watering. Some look almost folded in half near the "palm" part of the fingers. and the buring is only the very tips, not along the...

158 views and no one has an idea of how to fix this? Mah baybeez need help! Is there any more info I can give?

Help! 1) PICTURE OF PLANT at bottom. 2) Growing indoor. Master x OG kush from clones 3) Watering schedule: when dry via meter every 3-4 days ph @ 6.5, Vita-grow 3 part nut. started at 1/4 strength upped to half dose as indicated on label for "herbs" 4) Growing Medium: black gold soil (orange...

Thanks guys, looks like Ill be safe with the bull-run watershed. I am still debating a hempy bucket or DWC. I like that with a hempy you can add a refill reservoir so you can leave it over the weekend if needed, but you DWC guys seem to be getting much better results with the airstone... hmm.

No one said you cant use CFL, it is just that HPS is so much easier and efficient to use. Less heat, (I used to be under the impression that HPS would put off too much/much more heat (NOT the case with an aircooled hood). After doing a side by side comparison with MY OWN EYES and equipment with...

UPDATE: the cab caused too much heat and humidity even with a 6" vortex @ 400 some odd cubic feet a min... so I ended up with a cab FULL of foliage (3 plants were too many) and Powdery Mildue. That is where the 400w HPS and 3x3 tent came into play. =) and my god 400w HPS vs 400w floro is no...

Here it is, I was wondering if I needed a different source or to invest in a reverse osmosis purifier. Im tired of getting ripped off for gallons at the market. I think the tap is ok, super low ppm etc but I would like a RIO vet to look it over if at all possible so I don't cook my babies...

Hey man, I have the same wally world temp/humidity gauge as you and I was having a problem with high readings... Problem was the black case soaking in and building up heat within the unit. I put a piece of white paper over it and it gave me matching results to another thermometer I put in the...

So far it has held 82 the whole night with the carbon filters on the outtake vents. The problem was with my wallyworld temp/humility gauge. It was black plastic and would heat up under the lights giving high readings. I didnt think the air temps or wall temps were 88-89 where it was spiking at...

lol thanks! I might need to start a new thread once they go in and keep this as a build thread. Here is a diagram I came up with real quick and loose like, showing how the spread of the lights adds the lumen. I did not add the benefit of reflectors above the bulbs, just the throw of the light...

Not a single reference to this myth that "lumens are not additive" has come to light or any examples, demonstrations etc. Every source I personally have come upon has stated that lumen DO add. Soooooo.... wtf are you guys babbling on about how 5 5000lm bulbs will only make 5000lm ? There is a...

the other reason I went the 105w cfl route was the $15.00 (at cost price) tag per bulb. =) Im pushing 27000 lumens for 75 bux. :idea:

for all the HPS or MH people, this is not a thread to debate what your own personal thoughts on lumen are. IMO 6900+6900+6900+6900=27600 lumen. The specs of the bulbs changed from my title post. Being a photographer, understanding light and how it acts is part of the gig... Yes the inverse...

I re-worked the lights. I was only able to fit 4 into the footprint side by side. So pushing 420 watts @ a little under 28,000lm It has been on for 15 min and seems to hold 81 degrees at about 3" from the lights without a circulating fan, just the passive intake and 80 cfm outtake fan. Once I...

Added co2 allows for higher tolerable temps for the plants, just one quick example: https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/378946-high-temps-necessary-co2-enrichment.html. I will have the same amount of fresh air (like I said before, 8ft cubed cab with a 4" 80 cfm inline fan...

The box is sealed up pretty well, so I think I can rig a poor mans co2 system, and my girl can make some bread lol. I think Ill be able to get her into the 84 steady range after I finish rigging the lights to individual sockets and mount them horizontal. We shall see! I had success with CFL's in...
