    defoliation? yes/no and techniques

    I look at it more like cutting some hair or fingernails. There's a point where there's too much, but also a bit of cleaning up is always good. I can't help but wonder... what grower can produce an environment for their plants that is more "ideal" than Mother Nature. Sorry but that's another...

    defoliation? yes/no and techniques

    It's humorous to read how this thread started, the initial responses, and the wealth of knowledge that has sprung here. In my small amount of experience... Defoliating isn't about wether to do it or not, it is about knowing how much to pluck, and where to pluck. My plant has taken to my...

    My first super soil named "TKO's SS"

    I understand that adding mycos early wouldn't let them germinate right away, but my question is, would they expire before a root was presented into the ecosystem? Or would they rest in the soil waiting for roots to grow to them? If there was a chance the mycos would last a few months dormant, I...

    Going Organic reasonable for a beginning grower?

    Thanks man! honestly I'm not sure what the flower period or true strain is. I got it off Craigslist so you know how that goes... He told me it was og Kush and has 8 week flower period. But like I said, can't really trust CL so I'm just going to judge the trics for harvest.

    Going Organic reasonable for a beginning grower?

    straight tap is all I add. If I think about it in time, I RO it with an air pump and airstone (leftover from my crappy dwc) but I haven't noticed any difference when I water with one or the other. Here's my lady in about week 4 of flower. And I stress ONLY WATER!! The work is in the...

    New Grow t5 or full power cfl??

    Here we are. I stopped counting days because I've come to believe that a time frame is irrelevant and I will harvest by judging trics. They're are around 4 weeks flowering the small one was a freshly rooted clone when I started 12-12 so I tossed her in.

    From experience, how much will 22,000 lumens from 2 CFL bulbs yield?

    Lol @ billy big balls. I was thinkin the same shit. You can tell the difference between someone who has general respect and not, even if it's through a computer screen from an unknown distance away.

    From experience, how much will 22,000 lumens from 2 CFL bulbs yield?

    Lol at a pound... And I hear you Jim. I appreciate the respect! I was basically just going on research and certain journals I've seen but like I said, I haven't harvested a thing yet so you would definitely know more than me.

    From experience, how much will 22,000 lumens from 2 CFL bulbs yield?

    General rule of thumb for avg cfl grows is about .3 grams per watt used. I've seen journals that have achieved as much as almost 1 gram/watt. Honestly though the majority of your yield will come from how good of a job you do at giving the plant exactly what it needs in order to thrive. With...

    Going Organic reasonable for a beginning grower?

    I had terrible success with dwc. I switched to organic soil and since I did that, I'm so happy. I add straight tap water, that's all. I bought roots organic bag soil which is already premixed ready to go for veg. I transplanted into tga supersoil that was already cooked and prebagged for...
