    Plasma grow light

    It seems that many (if not all) of the plasma grow lights I've read literature about attempt to mimic the spectrum of natural sunlight. If you take a look at the claimed spectrum analyses, it does look very tempting; they appear fuller than even multipurpose LED arrays with 'the works' (blue...

    Wattage Selection!

    The carbon filter is attached to a 4" inline (squirrel fan). Although, obviously that's less efficient than it could be as it's pulling warm air out, and not pushing cool air in. That being said, I believe you about the 600. I could easily see that, and that's why I asked. The 400, based on...

    Wattage Selection!

    I've constructed a cabinet using medium density fiberboard for walls, the dimensions being 30"(wide)x22"(deep)x60"(tall) In terms of cooling, I have a Phresh carbon filter, with a squirrel fan, along with dual 120mm computer fans, both the filters and fans on a temperature controller...

    CAN'T SLEEP! What is the best strain for treating insomnia?

    Gentlemen! I appreciate all the suggestions! I seem to be observing some common themes here; Looks like Kush strains are popular for sleep, as are G Indicas (G18, G13)... Grandaddy Purple has come up a few times, also. Keep suggesting! I appreciate all the help!

    CAN'T SLEEP! What is the best strain for treating insomnia?

    Hello ladies and gentlemen! I searched around for a thread addressing this question, and haven't found one; For years I've had a hard time falling asleep, and bud has been the only effective medicine for the treatment of my insomnia. Mids do the trick most of the time, and they're not exactly...

    Word. I'm feeling much better about this scent issue, gentlemen. I appreciate the input. Err... how do you up rep? lol. (New to all forums, generally, and this one specifically!)

    Stinky, stinky! Nutrients which reduce smell?

    the brand is "Phresh" ^This looks reasonably similar. In fact it may be the exact one. 4" intake. I think it's about 11" long total, 4x8 sounds about right, including the metal bits at either end.

    Stinky, stinky! Nutrients which reduce smell?

    ^ That made me giggle a little... I like the cut of your jib, my man. The fan and filter ran me just short of $200... it had best work or I'm gonna send my hydro store owners through a wood chipper, and use the giblets in my nutrient solution... :-p

    Stinky, stinky! Nutrients which reduce smell?

    That's a cogent point, sir! I have a slightly over-sized filter/fan setup for my cabinet. The gentlemen at the grow store all agree it shouldn't be much of a problem. As the setup comes together, I'm more and more at ease with it's efficacy as I perceive it through observation and...

    Stinky, stinky! Nutrients which reduce smell?

    As far as I can tell the biggest obstacle in security that I'm going to face is the complication of aroma. THE QUESTION: Is there a particular set of nutrients which will mitigate smell to any degree, but still maintain optimum results? This is my first grow. I'll be using a 3-gallon DWC...

    Carbonating Nutrient Reservoire

    Good find, Figon! That makes a lot of sense... (although my idea is now shot!) My immediate thought was "Well can you saturate the water partially with carbon, and partially with oxygen?" >But methinks that would be inferior to the benefits of simply saturating fully with oxygen, as is...

    Carbonating Nutrient Reservoire

    Disclaimer; I'm not a chemist, nor do I claim to be anything resembling proficient in the field of chemistry. That being said > My understanding was that carbonating water does not produce carbonic acid, rather it produces a solution of water, carbon, and a 'precipitate' of carbonic acid which...

    Carbonating Nutrient Reservoire

    I'm new to the whole game, so bear with me here, ladies and gentlemen. I'll give an in-depth spec of my setup at the end of this post, in case it becomes relevant. My question is this; I've been reading up on hydroponics for a little while now, and I believe I'm going to try a single plant...
