    Thoughts on Grow Tents / Grow tent myths commonly found online

    Right now I’m growing Mr Nice Black Widow and Sensi Skunk #1. It really only smells if I turn off the carbon filter. Doesn’t matter if the tent is on or off, if that thing turns off it stinks after like 5 minutes throughout my entire apartment and into the hallway. With the carbon filter on, it...

    Thoughts on Grow Tents / Grow tent myths commonly found online

    I agree that Monsanto is going to be the biggest threat. They have the money to throw behind R&D and I think that once cannabis is legal across the US and across more markets, they will produce a homogeneous cannabis variety that is GMO and has genes for fungal resistance, pesticide resistance...

    Just a quick example of the type of the type of “knowledge” that people share which is wrong, but has little noticeable negative effects. People use far red lights to put the plants to sleep, but then advocate for folks to run them in the morning because “if far red puts the plants to sleep, it...

    I would say 90% of the people on this forum have not shared any knowledge lol.

    Also, just because I have only been growing cannabis for 1 year doesn’t mean that everyone who has been growing longer than me knows more than me, and it doesn’t mean that everyone who has been growing for less time than I have knows less than me. There is some knowledge that is specific to...

    I’m not bashing VPD. I am saying most people in the cannabis world are misapplying it, or not actually doing a controlled scientific experiment to measure its effects. Of course, there are larger cultivators who are able to hire consultants who have lots of knowledge regarding implementing mob...

    MIM, I should have clarified. There’s probably a better way I could have articulated my point. Too much negative air pressure is a bad thing, and too much positive air pressure is a bad thing. Ideally we want equalized pressure, however I’ve personally experienced more problems with too much...

    Jimster - You are correct, the plants energy cycle continues into the night. However, providing supplemental CO2 at night is pointless, because Cannabis can’t “store” CO2 in the night and use it during the day. Some plants can, but Cannabis isn’t one of them. Hopefully my first comment didn’t...

    I think you completely missed the point of my comment. I’ll just leave this link here. Plants rely on CO2 for photosynthesis. Wasn’t saying anything about O2. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    Right, there’s is a cloth/particle filter inside of my air ducts that pull in from the outside. Also, to those who say that “oh you are just used to the smell”. I should point out I do not smoke very much at all. I’d say i smoke about a half ounce a month, if that. I only like to smoke before...

    Thoughts on Grow Tents / Grow tent myths commonly found online

    That is not correct. People have been in my apartment and cannot smell it at all. The only time I can smell it is when I open the bottom vents, before I have turned on the fans that blow into them. And I actually don’t smoke a lot. I smoke primarily for back pain relief and for help sleeping, so...

    Also, some people have posted replies with suggestions on how to stop light from leaking out of my tents. To be clearer, since my post was long winded, the point was that you don’t need to block out the light that leaks out of your tent. A lot of people suggest doing it, but it seems to be...

    Right, running co2 when the lights off is pointless because the plants aren’t photosynthesizing. Have you ever had a landlord before? Because I don’t trust mine lol. I live in a decent sized building but there are multiple reasons a landlord might enter my unit. For example, to fix something...

    Thoughts on Grow Tents / Grow tent myths commonly found online

    To be clear, I’m saying that not all light from outside of the tent makes it inside the tent. I’m not saying anything about indicator lights inside the tent, which are typically red and are strong enough to cause stress issues. But a lot of people are worried about light getting into their tent...

    Hello everyone, I'm a new member here and a newer farmer as well. I have been using grow tents for about a year. I currently run a 5x5 Apollo Horticulture tent as well as a 2.5 x 2 gorilla grow tent lite. I will post some pictures here as well of my design / setup. I have carbon filters...

    Hey there

    Hey there from that big city in the midwest! I've got a family history of farming corn and soy, and other crops for over 170 years (and farming the same land in IL since the 1850s). Can't wait until it's legal in my state, which should be soon! I am also very into technology, as that is what...
