    My window a/c keeps freezing!

    Maybe I could use a vent fan to pull air through the light trap. Forced air through the a/c. That would keep the coils dry. And keep my room dark. Hmmm. Gonna try that first.

    My window a/c keeps freezing!

    Brand name is, "Frigidaire." It works fine most of the time so I don't think it's refrigerant loss. I keep it turned up to 68, any cooler and it's guaranteed to freeze. I'll try taking the light trap off and see if less restricted air flow helps. Just thought of this... Maybe it's not draining...

    My window a/c keeps freezing!

    Hey y'all. So, I've been studying air conditioner trouble shooting online and the only thing I can of is that the air flow has been restricted too much by my light trap - a lot of outside light pours in through the vents so a light trap was necessary to keep the room dark during the "night...

    Spider Mites week six of flowering

    There's a pre-mixed oil/soap product called "Plant Therapy," smells like peppermint. It was recommended to me from a long time grower friend, she has successfully used it to battle mites even until the last few days of flower with no change to the flavor of the herb. I'm currently using it on my...

    My seeds won't sprout

    The clones stay green and perky for 2-3 weeks but they won't sprout roots, after 3 weeks algae grows on the pods and the clones yellow and die. My methods used to get roots in 5-7 days with all pods uniformly ready to plant by 10 days (Jiffy pods, Great White, seaweed, Hygrozyme, under 40w...

    Please Help? What is happening to my girls?

    Oh! And, if you have mites or any other insect issues, I highly recommend a product called Einstein Oil (neem oil.) It's an excellent biological control that will even clear up certain molds. If you want a good "bio-shield" (healthy fungus/bacteria) I can recommend Great White. It was the only...

    Please Help? What is happening to my girls?

    It seems like most of the previous replies have you covered, the leaves curling and the odd colors are likely due to the high pH. However, I've noticed problems like that in the past from inconsistent lighting conditions as well. Make sure your photo period is correct (18 hours light/6 hours...

    My seeds won't sprout

    I started growing back in 2009, and for several happy years I got nearly a %100 success rate sprouting seeds and rooting clones. I don't know what happened or what I'm doing wrong but it seems like, no matter what methods I'm using, I can't get seeds to sprout or clones to take root since about...

    Perpetual Cloning Question

    A plants genotype is the set of characteristics it has and exhibits based on its genetics, where the phenotype is the exhibition of characteristics based on environment. So, if you and I both had a clone of the same strain but we ran different programs, say RDWC v. soil organic, we might have...

    Perpetual Cloning Question

    The original Romulan was grown out in the 70's and if you're lucky you can still find good clippings. It was gifted to me as a new grower in 2009 and I grew it for a couple of years. Hard to say if it was truly original Romulan but an old grower said it had similar characteristics. Point being...

    Perpetual Cloning Question

    Also, cannabis produces a large amount of CBN during vegetation, which is the precursor chemical to the other cannabinoids, so in addition to becoming stinkier and tastier, the longer your plants can veg the more potent they will be. Remember: a clone is not a new plant. It's the SAME PLANT...

    Perpetual Cloning Question

    I've grown a few strains for more than two years at a time and can say this: if you always take your clippings from a vegetative plant that hasn't EVER switched to flower mode you can grow the same strain indefinitely without detriment. In fact, every strain I've ever kept more than one year...

    Hello From Me

    Indeed. I grew some Romulan when I first started and it took a pretty serious cure time. Minimum six weeks before it even tasted good or burned right, but longer was better. Sometimes I'll put a few nugs away in a "4/20" jar and cure until April 20th, that way there's a nice variety with a good...

    Pest Management.....should I Be?

    I'm hip to neem oil as well. Used properly it has helped me control and eventually eliminate every insect problem I've ever had. Highly recommend Einstein Oil if you can get it. I don't usually feel the need to spray neem routinely and avoid doing so after the third week of flower so as not to...

    Hello From Me

    That's cool. It's hard to find any landrace varieties any more. I think the last one I smoked was a Hindu Kush about 8 years ago. And a solid cure time! My herb never makes it that long, ha ha ha!

    Word

    I agree that Cannazym alone is better than Hygrozyme alone but used back to back or even together makes a difference; using a blend of enzymes is the way to go. Can you recommend another more effective one? What is aloe used for in the garden? I've never heard of using it for the plants. One...

    The Muchacho Smoking Facility!

    Started the morning with a little Old Boy Blue, coming up to some purple Cherry Limeade and a few hits of homemade wax. Mmm. Good Saturday!

    Uncommon Cmh Question

    I recently acquired two Prism Lighting Science 315w ballasts. They don't have any switches or controls. Just straight up 315 watts. Also, these little mogul socket converters work great! I'm very pleased. Dramatically reduced the cost to upgrade to 315's. To Hell with those expensive all-in-one...

    Thanks for the welcome! To start I brew up a nice batch of [Subcool's] super soil (caution: this mix will burn little clones and seedlings. Only plant healthy well-established plants in this mix or use a small buffer layer of plain soil to allow the roots to gradually find the enriched soil)...
