    What makes outdoor strains early finishing?

    I used to think it was how long flowering takes in weeks. Now after my first year outdoor, I think it's just when they start to flower. Some strains start flowering when the days are still longer and the nights not as short. So lets say you make some seeds of a strain that did not finish...

    Zone 5a strain recommendations please

    what is it about indicas that make it finish in shorter seasons? The majority of strains nowadays are hybrids. Choosing a pure indica you are picking some of the old school strains and missing out on all the breeding of the last few decades for terpenes and thc. Indoors Sativas take longer to...

    How Do I Value These Seven Footers?

    these would be too lanky and tall for me. I wouldn’t want to flower them out as is.

    Just wasted $2000 on LEDS (or) WHY LEDS suck

    UPDATE Had good results with last run with temps of 70-72F during flower. Sure yield may have been higher with higher temps, I got 1 lbs per 480W LED including popcorn nugs. ran 2 lights so 2 lbs. But quality and density was good and they did mature nicely at 9 weeks on the dot. Now we are in...

    Just wasted $2000 on LEDS (or) WHY LEDS suck

    I was getting a pretty even canopy with the cmh. my lux meter showed 50K Lux all around at 18-24" Distance, which is on the lower end I would say. It may have been an issue from lower temps, or it could also be that one of my timers was screwed up and did an extra hour of light for a few...

    Yeah I was just emotional and clickbaiting in order to draw in views and responses. A more scientific/academic approach that I prefer to take when emotions arent high, would give a more appropriate title of "LOW Temperature challenges of running LEDS"

    FINAL UPDATE DAY 12 TURBO KLONE the tops look ok, no wilting, no dying, no rotting/mold, unfortunately, there is not a single root, and so far no knots or bumps. I will be patient and wait another week to see if something will happen. ROCKWOOL CUBES 100% MOLD AND ROTTEN STEMS. I think this...

    \ Night time temps are for the Turboklone, which is the target area. The domes have heating mats 24/7 set to 78F so they are always between 75-80F all day.

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    I've been playing around with this idea of reduced light for the final weeks in a way not mentioned yet. Basically I run perpetual, so sometimes I have some plants that are ready to be flipped, and some plants that are on week 8 or 9, and could use an extra 7-10 days. So I just stick the...
