I have been using a swamp cooler in the room outside my tent to keep the humidity up over 45%. I thought I needed it here in CO. But several people have told me they don't use anything like that and just grow in our 15% humidity air. Is everyone else just growing in CO's natural dry climate...

I am on my fourth grow. I switched to a more simple and basic mix this time and it is working much better than what I had been using. I created my own "frankenmix" so I have to kind of work out my own schedule. Do any really experience growers have advice for how I should use Hammerhead and...

With my third grow ending, and being out of almost all nute products, I've spent a lot of time deciding what to use (and buy) this time around. I've wound up essentially going with the "beginning" of the GH schedule I've been using, while replacing most of the "end" of their schedule. It's...

After three grows, I am barely not a newbie anymore. I remember when I first started, the most difficult thing was figuring out what I should actually be putting in the water. After 3 (2.5, really) grows I have finally worked out a combination that I know works well, leaves clean water (dirty...

I am switching to a sterile res to try and solve a brown slimy root problem. I can find a lot of posts about using H202 but none that tell me how much? How many ml per gallon of H202 do you use for a sterile res? I am using GH nutes with the addatives ("Expert" schedule) in RO water with GH...

Ok, I am having problems with my new plants. I have 6 plants. 2 of them are much lighter green than the rest. I've had leaves turn brown, I've had a leave with rust spots, I've had a leave that turned really dark green in the center, and some with tips that curled up. I've tried to put some...

I've always been into cutting edge science. This is actually slightly old news, it started to reach "buffs" like me earlier this year. It is of interest to growers, but really the whole world. You'll be hearing a lot about this towards the end of this year, when real examples begin to pop up...

I am about to start my second grow, well my third really. My first was very successful, getting a little over 1.2 lbs from a 4x4 tent with a 600w HPS light. My second grow lasted about 2 weeks, until an army of little bugs with wings came crawling out of the pots. I just pulled them all and...

I am currently growing what I was told was this strain. I've also seen the name "Ducth Passion" associated with this, I don't know if that is the breeder or seed bank they originated from but that was my impression. Does anyone know how long this strain is actually supposed to flower for...

Does anyone know the real answer of how long you use Final Phase? The guy at the store said only use it for 6 hours, then clear water for the rest of the week. One place on AN's web site says the same thing. Everyone else says use it all week, or use it 4 days then 3 of clear water. Which...

I am beginning week 10 of what was said to be a 9-11 week strain. I had fed the plants assuming a 10 week schedule. But now beginning week 10 they are not ready to start flushing, 11 weeks is looking about right. Should I just keep running the "ripen" mix using the dry koolbloom for another...

I've been reading a lot about nutrients lately. My first grow is going very well and will switch to flush sometime within the next week, so now I am thinking about the next one. It will be a SCROG for one thing. SCROG seems great for a tent and by growing these first plants too big I got to...

So, I spent the last year and all my spare money for a 6 months to be about 2 months away from harvest. The plan had been to sell about half to a dispensary and keep half for myself. Now, apparently, us peasants are not allowed to make any money on this like the nobility is. So, is there a...

I have some plants that don't seem like they are ever going to stop growing. Is it just that they slow down during flowering but will continue to grow until they are cut down? I was under the impression that there is a "stretch" period for 2 or 3 weeks and then they stop growing taller and...

Many leaves are beginning to turn brown, and then reddish brown. I have some pictures below. These are being grown hyrdo, with a chiller for 69 degree water. GH nutes with the addatives. RO water, 1100 PPM, 5.8 PH, temp and humidity always in right ranges. The plants are 2 1/2 weeks into...

I am trying to figure out how long I need to flush at the end. This is my first time growing and I see everything from "2-4 Days with FloraKleen or Clearex" to "2 weeks with plain water". The taste is very important to me, I especially don'tt want that "tastes like fish tank water smells" that...

I am a first time grower and am worried that my plants that are 1 week and 1 day into flowering are going to grow too tall for my space. I started them flowering a week and a day ago. The tallest was 12", others were 10-11. Today the tall one is 20" and the others are 18-19. I only have 8...

Those of you in more humid climates have probably never heard of them, but out here in the SW US we have things called "swamp coolers". They are also called "evaporative coolers". They are basically a fan that blows through a wet media, the evaporation cools the air. They only work well in...

I have a DR120 tent I am trying to set up. I need to use an Xtrasun reflector, 6" Can Fan, and Can 33 filter in it. The filter was the lightest filter I could find, but the tent still can't support this weight. This stuff weighs 71.5 lbs and the tent only supports 69 lbs... I got close. I...

I am new to this and am just hoping for some general advice. I have set up a closet and think I am ready to get some clones to start my first grow. I am using a normal closet because it is the only space I have. It is 26 inches wide and I have about 4 feet in length to work with. In the...
