    The Best Deals Thread. Post Best Deals And Lowest Prices Links

    Cool, thank you for the heads up! I don't doubt one bit that what you linked is better but I'm a newb in understanding these new gen lights and am rather interested in understanding the comparison between say that fixture and if you were to assemble a cheap kit yourself using these parts: $33 -...

    The Best Deals Thread. Post Best Deals And Lowest Prices Links

    This 315w conversion kit really caught my eye as a future upgrade to my 400w HPS for flower, especially if I buy a second one down the line (+a cheap hood), combine that with a new 3100k bulb off ebay for only $60 and I get a pretty nice upgrade to my flowering setup for less than $230...

    Heatsink help needed.

    http://www.heatsinkusa.com/5-886-wide-extruded-aluminum-heatsink/ Is a great site for sourcing heatsinks, can choose your desired length to suite your needs. I rarely see people individually setup CPU heatsinks for cobs unless its just a couple or a few, would be better to run something like I...

    Passive veg ventilation help

    Very informative, thanks a ton! It's super dry here in the winter months so knowing I can do a little trial and error with the ventilation for that is fun news to me. :grin:

    Passive veg ventilation help

    I'm running a 400w HID, the fan is a hydrofarm 6", rated at 400cfm. The closet is roughly 3.5'x3.5'x7'. The hood is rather large, the typical barn shaped ones with two 6" holes on each side. Smell most likely won't be a problem until flowering at least so I'm just looking for the most...

    Passive veg ventilation help

    Hello! :weed: I recently bought an air cooled hood and inline fan, I'm a little uncertain though as to how I'm suppose to setup the ventilation when I'm not using a carbon filter (for veg months) to help minimize stress on the fan. From my understanding, it would be worth it to hook up ducting...

    Cooling a tent. Any dangers with this idea?

    I've been doing this myself haha, with no problems! It works fantastic! Love having full control over temps now during extreme heatwaves and only needing my a/c on low + like a temp of 74 will keep my grow closet(3.5x3x7) bellow 75 all day on a 110+f day. Only issue is to be sure you really...

    When can I transplant my seedling?

    I've left plants in solos for way longer than they should have been (4+ weeks), they were rootbound to hell, way outgrowing their containers with no problems.. I just think in his instance it's a little too young to be moving, it's barely starting its second nodes... another week would be more...

    When can I transplant my seedling?

    I would personally let it get a little more rootbound and let it develop its second nodes more, unless there's an emergency or real reason to transplant now it's just going to be some unneeded delay to it's growth. I'm just a believer of not disturbing a plant in a small container like that or...

    I'm confused right now...

    I always thought LST wasn't redistributing auxins but simply when the main stem of the plant is bent, gravitropism kicks in and the rest of the plant tries to orientate itself from there on out by growing lower nodes vertically when exposed to light and air? The only time I thought auxins truly...

    Low stress training

    I've been LSTing after watering, waiting at least a day or 2 preferably for soil I've found to work the best. I'm assuming with hydro there's not really a preferred time, it's just the case of being extra gentle in your bends if they're more pliable, if you've never had issues with kinking at...

    Bag seed grow

    Hey man, welcome to the growing party! :hump: As Intenseneal said, they're looking like they're begging you for more light (stretchy growth) and are hungry for Nitrogen (lower leaves turning yellow). Mind posting more details about your grow setup? How many lights, what watts and color...

    Which strain would you ditch?

    Very tough decision in my opinion :-?, I'd probably end up getting rid of either the blue dream or blue widow, even though both of those sound like great strains I think the others in comparison are simply better choices. If the blue dream was doing noticeably better than the blue widow or vice...

    How long after this final transplant should I wait to flower? (First Grow)

    That's a great idea, I will have to take a page from your book for sure as it sounds like it would work great for what I need :clap:. I was thinking of something like that but w/ small holes at the ending of the hose (say, 6 pen sized holes, 3 on each side) for a more even spread of water (and...
