    Using free app to measure LUX - Help!

    Yeah your right, just done some digging and apparently you can't measure multicoloured lights using a lux meter, or at least no where near accurately enough. Looks like I'll be OK the way I am then. Cheers

    Using free app to measure LUX - Help!

    Definatley looks that way doesn't it, I just don't see how a 300w can out perform a 600w by that much. The vipar is a burble light where as the ts600 is just white light, maybe that has somthing to do with it. Looks like I better swap my lights round then I've been using the V to veg and Mars...

    Using free app to measure LUX - Help!

    So I've just downloaded a cheap app to test lux so I can then convert that into umols to get my light at roughly the correct height. Using this site: www.waveformlighting.com/horticulture/convert-lux-to- Anyway when I first started growing I used a viparspectra 300w led and after a couple of...

    Fastberry auto scrog, when to stop tucking?

    Hi guys, As it says really, it's the end of week 4, day 26 today, do you think it's time to stop tucking now and leave it to do its thing?

    . Well just wanted to say thanks for everyone's help guiding me through my first grow, it's dried and is curing nicely, got 52g dry. It smells and tastes amazing, makes it even sweeter when you know you've grew it yourself. Pretty happy with that for a first grow and all the mistakes I made...

    I've just had it out the fridge, had a really good look at it, and trimmed some of the larger fan leaves that were blocking light and it's only the top sugar leaves that are starting to go Amber, is it when all the leaves start to go Amber that I want to harvest? One more pic for you :) Thanks.

    Yes I have a loupe, the suger leaves are I would say around 60% Amber, but the buds are still milky.

    so it's day 65 today, lots of Amber trichs now, I think this one is nearing the end, concidering I had the light too close for about a week, and I'm pretty sure I've been under watering it most of its life its not a bad result. I've already planted a SFV OG which is on week 2 after learning a...

    Hi guys, not been around for a couple weeks had a few family problems. But now that's all sorted I'm back. I realised my problem with the rusty leaves... My light was too close, how embarrassing! I had it in my head a 300w led light wasn't going to do any damage but man was I wrong, but we live...

    No not a bottom feed system. Ive cut some leaves of with a Stanley knife and I didn't steralise it beforehand, do you think that could be the source of the problem? Initially I thought it was the fan was too close, I moved it about 5 days ago but still no real improvement, it hasn't got any...

    It's in a 5 gallon air pot, I've got a pH pen but I've only checked the water going in which is 6.4, I haven't checked the run off. The humidity was getting high last week so I ended up getting a dehumidifier which has brought it down to a steady 45-55%. It's really strange as it's only...

    I have a increasingly sick plant guys :( I got some cal mag and after about 5 days still no better. I'd say about 60% of the leaves are like this now, although the buds still seem to be growing quite well. I switched from 18/6 to 24/0 as I was struggling with humidity, would it be worth...

    It only appears to be on the top and it's only affecting a few leaves, is it anything to worry about?

    It's only minor at the minute, am I right thinking it's a calcium problem do you think? Want to nip it in the bud early.

    Newbie custom fridge grow box

    Thanks for all your help, I thought having a small grow area it would be real easy to control, and it has been up until now, but having such drastic changes in the weather has proven to be a nightmare. I bought a new heater a couple of days ago which is much better, its on a thermostat so...

    This is the thing, I've got the exhaust thru the wall to outside to prevent it dragging in warm air, and that didn't make much difference so I also put the intakes thru the wall so they're pulling in clean fresh air, and it still didn't make a difference, then I went on the met office app, and...

    Haha I know you can grow them 24/0 but wasn't sure about changing the light cycle at this stage of the grow, but I don't think I have any other option at this point, cant risk any mould :(

    I know what you mean, it all adds up, I've got a desk fan in there at the min, as you say it's the time of year, but at this stage of flowering I hear 70% humidity is very bad, I think I might try it.

    Newbie custom fridge grow box

    Just a quick question guys, I'm really struggling with high humidity at the minute, the humidity outside has been over 80% everyday this week so far, and when the lights are off its 70% plus in there. So will I do any damage to the plant if I switch from 18/6 to 24/0 at this stage? I can...
