    first time cooking. need advice

    your 10g should make a half pound of butter. I just made 6.5 oz of frozen wet trim (use bud at half the rate) into 4 lb of unsalted butter. (You end up with a little over 3 pounds. Monalisaloves maryjane has some great youtube videos on how to make it and bake it. I made some brownies...

    Optimal Relative Humidity, and How to Control?

    No pics but should be easy to describe. I have the 3 head fogger set up in a 4 x 4 tent. I have the fogger in 1 18 ga Rubber maid tote. I installed the PC fan in the top of the lid of the tote. Then I cut a 3 1/8" hole with a holesaw to fit a 2" bulk head and hard piped a 9" PVC pipe to a...

    Optimal Relative Humidity, and How to Control?

    Thanks for the link, I've been looking for a fogger to play with and ordered one myself. Looks like a good site, though being in Canada I don't want to order grow lights or something obvious and give customs my address.

    Optimal Relative Humidity, and How to Control?

    The Hydrofogger looks interesting and the minifogger seems reasonably priced to do a room up to 1000 sq feet. Does anyone know what the optimal RH for flower is? I agree with you that in veg the plants do wake up at those levels. I follow the VPD guidelines but are they the same for flower...

    Portable A/Cs

    No they're not. You can pick up a portable for $219. I agree with the others comments that they exhaust hot air, use up amps and make your room not sealed, needing a fresh air source. I cooked an entire room by not venting a portable properly.

    Container setup advice needed

    Yes I will be running a generator. The thing is the containers will be in an unheated building, and the first 6 months the air temperature outside the containers will be -25 C. During the summer the daytime temps can get to 30 C but the containers will be out of the direct sun and insulated...

    Container setup advice needed

    I am going to be setting up two shipping containers (eventually, going to start with one). They will run on opposite light cycles. The method will be a DIY UC. There will be an approximate 4 or 5 foot room when you walk in to house electrical, ballasts, Co2 generator, chiller, and res tank...

    Seeds not germinating!!

    This is a sure fire way to germinate tough to germ seeds: http://youtu.be/dpKYEIt84qo I put the sand paper inside a roll of pennies paper. That way its handy to reuse next time. The timing on this method is critical. I only soak for 8 hours and then when I put the strainer wrapped with...

    How do you support your lanky/weak strains?

    Tomatoe clips. Your grow shop should have them. I took twine and tied it in a grid pattern on the top of the tent. Then clip a tomatoe clip to a suitable spot on the twine grid. Tie a length of twine to that clip then use another clip for the branch.

    Optimal Relative Humidity, and How to Control?

    According to their website, its .85. From experience, plants flourish at this level in the veg stage. I don't have enough experience flowering them to know if that is the case in bloom as a lot of what you reads contradicts a RH level high enough to achieve .85 in bloom, but in veg they will...

    Optimal Relative Humidity, and How to Control?

    Lately I've been managing plants by VPD and the plants in the veg room love it. I use fine misting to increase RH as required and just open the door for a brief period to lower it. Here's a great tool someone else on the site provided: http://www.autogrow.com/vpd_calc.php

    Rooting With IBA

    I have a DIY aerocloner. I use Sure to Grow Clipper pucks. I use Clonex gel and Clonex nutes, though I only use a 1/4 the label rate. 250 PPM. I was told to use a minimun of foliage because then the cutting can focus on growing roots rather than supporting the leaves. Is this wrong...

    Aerojet 4x4 16 plant tray in a tent.

    You could make your own. Plenty of tutorials on how to on youtube. In a 4x 4 tent you could do it in two 36 gallon totes. I use 1 for a pre veg that has room for 8 3" netpots. You could get 12-16 out of two totes. I get my microsprayer misters from Dripworks USA online. Red 180 degree...

    Mother/Cloning Question

    Thanks. Good advice from all that replied. I already do take double. My cloner holds 22 and I want to be able to move 10 to pre-veg. I run the ppm on the mother around 1900 so the advice to cut back prior was new and likely prudent. I have noticed it takes about 15 days to get roots and...

    For you folks obsessed with humidity, some valuable information MUST READ!

    Thanks for your post. I added the autogrow calculator to my favorites list. And thanks to the OP, JimmyHoffa for the thread. I am growing in a generally low RH environment and this article opened my eyes. I thought I may need a dehumidifyer but may need to raise the humidity instead. One...

    Mother/Cloning Question

    When taking clones is it ok or advisable to make a clone out of the top growing point on the mother? I avoided doing that in my first round of clones and mother is doing great. Too great, as I'm running out of head room for her. I will be taking 22 clones from her next, she can easily supply...

    T5's?

    Chances are you have a garden shop near you. I use Sunblaster T-5 fixtures to veg with. They come with the bulb and are $24 for a 24" in canada. They also have an optional reflector for $13 which reflects a good deal of light. They pull 27 watts. This will be more pricey than a home...
