Look at the picture that was posted again, my friend. Those definitely are not two litres. They are your run of the mill vending machine bottles. He harvests about a half ounce from each. ~Ethno

A conversion bulb is a bulb that can be used with another light specific ballast. For example, a metal halide conversion bulb can be used with a ballast that was designed specifically for high pressure sodium. ~Ethno

Welcome to RIU, Caroline. People here are pretty friendly, so long as you read through a thread before asking a question that's already been answered twenty times. :wink: Even then, they forgive and forget pretty easily. That's one of the reasons this is considered the best community resource...

As the plant(s) get larger, you'll need to change the water less often, due to the mass of the root system and the small capacity of the reservoir. They'll drink it up like you wouldn't believe. A word of advice with the Aerogarden. If you MUST use their included nutrients, don't use the...

You'll pick it up quickly, especially if you use the link onthedl provided. I'm as much a proponent of using proper english as the next man, but it's simply not practical to write such things as "compact fluorescent lighting" over and over again. It's all good. You'll be on your way to slinging...

Victor, the voice of reason. :grin: Good looking out friend. ~Ethno

Subscribed. Looks interesting, Faux. Keep it up.

I definitely wouldn't ever recommend anyone pee directly on their plant... However, if he's trying to keep the deer away, it's probably better to urinate near it. It won't hurt the plant. If the roots "suck it up", the plant will probably like it, actually. Urine is pretty clean. And for a...

I'll answer your second question first. Yes. It's much wiser to do that. Now to your original question. No, that will not produce feminized seeds, just the usual mix. But it is useful if both the female and male have traits you want to grow out for an eventual stabilised phenotype. And um...

For maximum yield, yes, you do need nutrients. In hydroponics, aeroponics, wick systems, hempy buckets, or any variation thereof, you absolutely must use nutrients. However, you can grow without nutrients in soil. Whether it will work very well is entirely subjective, and is dependent on the...

It depends on how much you use and your system set-up. I can testify to the fact that using organic molasses truly does work. I can also testify to the fact that it can build up in soil and especially aeroponics. If you have a hydro, aero, or wick setup, use very little, very, very, very...

They look very, very good to me. I can't see for sure without a side picture, but there doesn't appear to be a lot a lot of visible stretching, and the fact that the one on the left has new nodes without much spacing is spectacular at that size. Good job! Be careful when you add nutrients...

In Cannabis. One should never use it on Cannabis unless specifically trying to breed. In most other plant species, it produces female flowers, in addition to providing a boost to growth. ~Ethno

LowRyder is low, low quality. Too much ruderalis land race genetic stock. Go with quality. Cannabis is easy to grow, at any height. You don't need to sacrifice quality for ease of growing. ~Ethno
