Looking good! Def post smoke reports of both -- really interested in the Soul Mate. Great parentage, with Bodhi's touchstone strain for the mama, and the terp king for the papa. The tailed-out looking lady has an almost Highland Thai landrace look to it. That's one of the wonderful things...

The Samsung diodes are a huge advantage, and a wise choice! U.S.A. #ViparSpectra

Having a dimmer is beyond an advantage over something non-dimmable U.S.A. #ViparSpectra

One disadvantage is that I don't own one yet USA #ViparSpectra

What would be ideal is to have a 4-gang 1900 box in the wall of your grow area, with 4 GFCI receptacles all wired back to their own separate 20A breakers in the panel. Then you can run extensions or surge strips off of each of these and never worry about overloading a single circuit. This is...

Meh, I don't worry about what the wires are running through at all. I do HVAC and a little sparky work, and was a union pipefitter in the midwest for years before moving to CO. Codes were stricter there, and everything above 30V had to be in EMT conduit indoors, and rigid conduit outdoors...

Would love to give Apple Betty a proper run! Thanks for the chance, @Herbies_Seeds !!

Welp, I harvested the last of the outdoor Maui Wowie, and after a rinsing and light fan leaf removal, she's hanging in the dark at 60/60. Here's pics of her just before harvest, a full 3 weeks behind the other 2; she has a little bit more skunkiness and earthy pepper to go along with the...

Yellowing leaves is nothing to worry about towards the end of flower, especially in soil, and especially outdoors. I find it desirable, myself, as I cringe when I see the harvest of a totally green plant. Barring N deficiency, which usually starts from the lower fan leaves up, it's part of the...

So, what you'll do is multiply those by .015. That gives you your umol/m2/s. For example, at 24" on center, you have 224.55 umol/m2/s. Now, depending on your light cycle (24, 18, 12) hours, you'll plug that in to get your DLI, which at 18 hours would be about 14.3umol/m2/d. And definitely...

delps8 brings some great points. I think it all comes down to investment and expectations on your return on investment. If I was to get to a point where I could expand my grow and make it more than just a head stash and passion thing, I would no doubt get an Apogee, as it's now "a tool that I...

Yeah, nice pickup with the humidity controller with receptacles -- that's better than how I'm doing it with just the timer on lights-off. That's a nice middle-road between my primitive method and going all-out with an entire high-end grow controller/setup. I have a 1-gallon humidifier in my...

Yeah, good luck with your PAR meter search! I'll keep a keen eye out for one and let you know. In the meantime, I wouldn't hesitate to pop those beans if you have the booklet that came with your light has a PPFD chart, that gives different readings based on light height distance and...

Yeah, you could do that, but not sure you'd be happy with it. I only say that because once you've used it a few times, you'll probably be saying to yourself "I should have just gotten a PAR meter." I know I would. Besides, I'm not so sure a lux light meter is going to be any easier to find, or...

Yeah, the cheaper ones will do just fine. I got a decent one used on fleabay for just under $100, but I bet you could find one in the classifieds either here on the farm, or another grow forum. Maybe even make a post, see if another grower has an old one lying around that they'll sell you. I...

What's your budget? Invest in a PAR meter and small humidifier if you have the funds. Get the meter used, save you some scratch. Using a PAR meter to dial in your DLI for each stage of growth will take ALL the guesswork out. It's not hard, either -- there's resources online that you can plug...

2nd pheno of Maui Wowie still out there, chugging along, looking better everyday. She's still drinking as much as ever, even with the cooler weather. Definitely chunkier, denser buds than the other pheno that I harvested last week, so I've got my eyes close on her for mold, but it's been sunny...

I washed for the first time ever this year, (outdoor crop), and it did have some kind of film on the water that was noticeable, like a mixture of dust/pollen and oil of some sort. The plants were so sticky that I'm sure they were magnets for everything in the air, which would make your...

Don't attempt to start too many seeds at once when trying a new germination method. . . .

Chopped the oldest and youngest girls this morning. I got the drying area dialed in and can hopefully get some snap, crackle, pop on the stems within a couple weeks. The whole house smells like grilled pineapples and diesel fuel from this Maui Wowie, which is pleasant enough that I hope that...
