Started with an Ed Rosenthal book in the 70's. I'm still learning - by doing and following others on The Farm.Hey there,
General topic is how are people learning to grow?
I have read and re-read the Cannabis Grow Bible (3rd Ed) by Greg Green, it is a boat load of good knowledge and I learn something new everytime I crack it open.
Good LEDs work just as good as HIDs.learned by reading Ed Rosenthal's marijuana grower's guide back in the 90s, they didn't use any LED lights, etc, just MH & HPS, grew a couple in a open room grew A LOT FASTER than the light I'm using now, I bought a couple of those cheap LED lights to see if it was even worth trying to compare but seems to me that it grew faster under HIDs, anyone else having this problem?
That's funny I'm coming across this, was thinking the exact same thing half hour ago. I'm thinking it's the fact that we're able to produce more THC from a plant than back then with today's nutes, focusing it's energy on producing nice thight, sticky, stinky buds instead of growing big, loose not so packed with trichomes flowers.learned by reading Ed Rosenthal's marijuana grower's guide back in the 90s, they didn't use any LED lights, etc, just MH & HPS, grew a couple in a open room grew A LOT FASTER than the light I'm using now, I bought a couple of those cheap LED lights to see if it was even worth trying to compare but seems to me that it grew faster under HIDs, anyone else having this problem?
they worked better for me I've tried using LEDs they grow plants way too slow for me, back in the 90s when I 1st started fooling with them, HiDs is all we had & knew how they work, now since growing in medicinal states we can grow them , so I used to use LEds went bought a 600 watt MH & HPs kit for $250.00 set it up ran the exhaust to the attic a friend made in my house & showed how to reseal it so it won''t show marks where a hole is , this is my home I don't put holes in my walls to grow pot, If I had a choice keeping my house livable or growing pot ? I'll keep the house , it's worth A LOT MORE MONEY!Good LEDs work just as good as HIDs.
The problem is the “cheap” LEDs lollearned by reading Ed Rosenthal's marijuana grower's guide back in the 90s, they didn't use any LED lights, etc, just MH & HPS, grew a couple in a open room grew A LOT FASTER than the light I'm using now, I bought a couple of those cheap LED lights to see if it was even worth trying to compare but seems to me that it grew faster under HIDs, anyone else having this problem?
$7000+!..Wow! I thought $150 was bad. You must have a very very large setup.A variety of methods. Thc farmer is one of the great ones. I read a lot and still do. My problem being out in the woods is not having close indoor growers to bounce problems off. It can be expensive learning to grow indoors when the avg monthly light bill has never been below 7 grand a month. I am learning, my concern is maybe not enough or fast enough. Thank You.
b/s a nice harvest with CFLsThe problem is the “cheap” LEDs lol
THE BEST METHOD IS OUTDOORS , you can't sub nature , nature takes care of it's problems and those what's in it,A variety of methods. Thc farmer is one of the great ones. I read a lot and still do.
