you'll hear a lot of negative stuff from people who have never flowered under LED, or people who have bought some cheep shit LED light. but from someone who has flowered the same cuts under various LED, HPS and CMH, i can say that LED's work just great - but dont expect to be able to get the...

another vote for citric acid - not only does it bring pH down but it also keeps P in solution. buy food grade citric acid crystals - cheep on ebay - it's used in wine and jam making. use 1 tablespoon of the powder in a pint of water and you have a bottle of very cheep pH down. i use a couple...

agree with misterdirt. you dot say how many plants but i would say 4 x 11 litre under a 250 cfl sounds good. regular transplanting really helps root mass and avoids watering problems from small plants in big pots. in organic soil you will find you have many many less problems from making sure...

i think it sounds fine on the plant count. i do 4 plant modular scrog under a 250 with 3-5 gallon pots, and average around 3 ounces off each plant. you need big pots for scrog. attic can be awkward but is very stealthy and its my only choice for a grow. just here to tell you it can work just...

hey mcstoner, i grow in my attic too, in a cabinet within the triangular shape of the roof space. i use a 250 over an area about 2x2.5 ft. 2x250 will mean you can cover about 2-2.5x5-6ft in a decent fashion (2x250 will give out more light than 1x400). 250 needs to be 6-8" above the canopy. i...

the pH of your waterings/nutrient solution doesnt have that much influence on the pH of a good organic soil. im no expert on FFOF but i believe it contains lime or oyster shells - also to buffer pH. what do you do? - if your plants look happy then do nothing :) = or keep doing what you're...

sorry for the late response yes 5g dolomite lime for every litre of soil used. helps buffer pH and adds calcium and magnesium. you need powdered dolomite lime. not the same as regular garden/hydrated lime.

From OMRI : Bio Vega and Bio Flores Restriction: May be used only in cases where soil or plant nutrient deficiency for the synthetic micronutrients being applied is documented by soil or tissue testing. ---- 'vegan' as applied to growing is a bit of a nonsense imo, for example are...

bio canna is not properly organic - never mind vegan. it contains synthetic micronutrients. also the bio cann terra plus contains bonemeal and guano proper organics seldom come out of a bottle.

you seem to know an awful lot about this sex change thing bobby - is that from experience? ;) why do you hate trannies so much? if you really want to state your case then you should stick what is relevant. all this hating on trannies/sex change, and the way that people are trying to use...

well bobby, if im LEDGirl under a different screen name then at least give me some credit for forward thinking - because i joined this forum 18 months ago. :D im not actually defending anyone - just looking for the truth - and the fact is i have never read of anyone having paid for a light...

i can understand the shitstorm and all, but all the jibes and slamming about gender change makes some folks look like prejudiced narrow minded bigots. also, for the sake of objectivity, if you cant grow good plants under good quality LED's then you should blame your skills and not the...

flushing (as in putting loads of water through the soil) is pointless with organics and just gives you very wet soil and problems associated with that. best to add dolomite lime to the soil mix at 5g per litre of soil. needs to be mixed in to the soil before you start. humus also buffer the...

excellent - i have a pack of these so i'll be watching closely :)

Just so you know i'm not talking completely out of my hat when i advocate the use of good topsoil, this 2' sqaure canopy from my 250hps modular scrog was grown with 20% topsoil in the mix. gonna get well over 1g/watt on this grow 1st pic 42 days, second pic 60 days, 4 different strains...

good point! i wonder what kind of response DJ Short would get if he was starting out these days and posted a thread saying he intended to use hermaphroditic thai sativa as one of the building blocks of his flagship strain ;)

charles- thanks again for your response - you make it sound quite straightforward! i've been waiting for some more input from those that are against using fems for breeding. It seems that whilst their are many farmers who have strong opinions against fems, its more of a 'feeling that it's...

hey jack i dont have any more pics at the moment - posting them on the net is a new thing for me! but i'll try and get some, maybe start a journal or something. its pretty simple, just work out how many screens you want i would say about a foot square is minimum - measure your cab and work...

great stuff - i got a pack of black forrest and gave half of them to my friend to grow out indoors. this is seriously exotic stuff. the VB mum is a proper jungle landrace. the dad is a hawaiian sativa crossed with cherry ak47. smells odd, looks like really poor weed in the bag but this stuff is...

Modular Scrog not claiming to be an expert, but i think modular scrog deserves a mention here. two disadvantages of scrog in a cabinet is 1, lack of access to the plants at the back 2, difficulty in growing different strains with different stretch at the same time. if you make...
