    Your thoughts on efficiency

    Just hoping to get some input on what the community at large thinks would be the most efficient grow setup. What lights deliver the best performance for energy consumed? 600w HPS? T5's? LED? Which hydro system uses the least amount of water, specifically, which system has the smallest amount...

    Nirvana - warning!!!

    Good to know. I'm not really stressing about the seed quality since I've successfully germed some pretty sketchy looking bag seeds without a problem. I think it's just that since this was my first time actually buying seeds I expected something more... impressive... I dunno. As long as they...

    Nirvana - warning!!!

    If you order from Nirvana you run the very real risk of getting exactly what you ordered in a timely manner and not being able to come here and bitch about how you got ripped off. 10 Jock Horror, $25. Ordered on the 8th, shipped by the 10th, arrived on the West Coast today. Huzzah. I'll update...

    Noob in over his head first grow ... outside ....21 seeds

    Not so much on the plant itself but on the ground around it. It'll keep slugs and snails away. So will a pie tin buried level with the ground and filled with beer. Definitely worth doing as I lost 16 out of 20 plants in a night to the little bastards.

    Hashberry value

    Ding ding ding ding! We have a winner. Listen to the man. And as for your question, the econ textbook answer (which you should know, what with the still being in high school and everything) is that it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay you for it.

    Hella Light Problem

    Not the entire West Coast, by any means. I'm SoCal born and bred and personally I think the word "hella" should be smote from the face of the earth, never to be uttered again. But that's just me. Crazy NorCals with your "hella"s and your "cool beans".... Madness.

    can you get a pound a plant

    I'd be willing to guess it looks something like this.... Given enough time and space (and sound growing techniques) a pound per plant isn't unreasonable, much less "impossible". It'd be ridiculous for anyone to try to grow something like this inside, but if you've got a space in the yard or...

    Mold issues?

    Several times I've seen people mention that venting into the attic is ideal for grow room exhaust. It seems to be that blowing hot, humid air into a confined space presents an ideal environment for cultivating vast amounts of mold in addition to your bud. I'm not sure about the rest on the...

    need info on medical strains..

    I was just on the GH site and they explicitly said that they don't ship to the US. Is that a "just covering our ass" thing or is it serious? If so, can I find it through a third party distributor? I'm really looking for a indoor suitable strain with a very up, clear and energetic high. If I...

    Tutorial, Adding extra power lines to the grow room.

    Please, please, please!! Can't wait to see it. I think any electrical tutorials would be welcomed by many here. As for myself, I've zero experience with wiring a grow room (or anything else) and any info in that regard would be greatly appreciated.

    need info on medical strains..

    You can find a number of 100% sativas out there, though most are recommended for outdoor growing, presumably due to height requirements. I've been looking around for an indoor suitable sativa and I think I'll probably end up going with some Willie Nelson after I get set up to grow. Kinda pricey...

    two questions about harvest

    #1 - Yes. Fans stay on. #2 - Not a clue. I've always been under the impression that the type of high was determined by the variety of weed rather than time of harvest, but I've seen other people claiming it makes a difference. Maybe one of the more experienced/knowledgeable growers can descend...

    Summer time heat concerns

    I had considered that, planned on it actually, since I'm pretty sure that running the lights during non-peak usage hours is less expensive (correct me if I'm wrong), but I'd still be concerned about daytime temps with or without the lights as we regularly see 95F+ temps over the summer. Maybe...

    Summer time heat concerns

    I'm currently working on finding a home with a garage/out building to grow in. The thought occured to me that with summer in SoCal arriving (at least 90 degrees outside right now, whew!) maintaining grow room temps in the high 70's/low 80's might be difficult. It seems to me that intake/exhaust...

    Whats the easiest way to get the most ripped from the littlest amount of bud at home?

    I just happen to have a Patron bottle laying around. Sounds like I'm making a new toy soon. How'd you make drain holes without cracking the glass?

    Big enough for ScrOG?

    I've been dying to grow indoors lately and the other day I started sizing up a bookshelf as a potential grow cab. I think it might be suitable for a 1 - 2 plant scrog, but I thought I'd get a second opinion. The shelf is composed of 3" wooden slats with slots for a movable third shelf. I was...

    CFLs for sprouting

    So this is my first attempt at growing and I'm using a 36w CFL over my new sprouts until I can get them outside. They popped up 2 days ago and now average about one inch tall. I realize the amount of light isn't enough to grow and I'm curious whether or not this is a normal growth pattern or if...
