Blendtec :P If it can blend up a cellphone im sure it can handle dried stalks :)

Duct boosters are typically used for intake, or used for an exhaust for smaller veg/clone tents using CFLS. A duct booster won't be strong enough to use with a carbon filter or air cooled light. Yes it would be a problem unless you have the AC running hard or a window AC unit in that room...

Put the trimmings in one of the aluminum baking trays, stick it in the oven and dry it out. Then blend it up. Basically becomes unrecognizable and just toss it in the yard. Or blend up the trimmings w/o baking to dry and flush it down the toilet. Or blend it up, toss it in a bag and take it to...

A user on another forum had a coco grow where he made a mix of coco/epsom salt and Fox farms marine cuisine. Basically allowing him to just use PH'd water with a bit of epsom salt. Has anyone tried anything similar using dry nutes mixed with coco? It seems super simple which is pretty appealing...

Ordering big bags of soil will absolutely ass plow you via shipping costs, especially to AUS. Even though Fox Farms is good and highly praised it honestly isn't needed. Any decent quality local soil that can grow tomatoes good can grow cannabis. However there's a few things you could do. Order...

Indeed, I thought about going the "cheap china" route but opted out of it. Just the reviews alone on the ipower put me off. You don't hear solistek, lumatek, phantom,etc up and stop working, or blowing up bulbs. Especially when dealing with things that could be a potential fire hazard. Would...

Ahh good to know, so basically when shopping for bulbs I need to make sure they are dimmable ballast compatible? Weird, I've only skimmed through bulbs a few times and have never seen any mention about dimmable compatibility. Maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough.Edit: Damn that's unfortunate...

http://growershouse.com/quantum-600w-3-x-3-air-cooled-tent-package Went to a couple of the top sites and noticed some of the things in the kits were subpar stuff, such as the vent fan, the tent itself,etc. So far this is one of the best of the prebuilt kits I've seen. Just wondering if that...

People say more roots, more yield. Bigger the pot, more roots and thus more yield. Has anyone actually tested and experimented to see if there's ultimately that much of a difference between a 3 and 5 gallon? I guess I should note said plants will be vegged for a short duration.

I was originally planning on a quantum 400 watt HPS for a 3x3 tent, but I'm reconsidering that and thinking about going LED since heat may be a concern. Basically the only LED within my budget is Mar's Hydro and I keep hearing that name. Problem is, some people say their amazon reviews are...

You're better off buying the compressed bricks on the internet. The compression is awesome as it eliminates the cost of shipping since it's done by the pound. If you have to get a shittier brand of coco just rinse the shit. It's all the same, just some are rinsed a lot better than others...

MH conversion bulbs allow you to use said MH bulb on magnetic HPS ballasts. Which is useless. Get the pulse start. Pros to pulse starts are longer life, better cold starting, shorter warmup times.

Just saw a propaganda campaign on the news saying to vote against 2. It was painful, basically saying dispensaries will be like pill mills (something they are supporting LOL) and they'll be completely unregulated while mentioning the FDA. Honestly it's not looking good. There's way too many...

Yeah my resume is crap, just minimum wage jobs. Currently in school (better late than never) for networking.

Yeah been researching for a year now. Figured out the bare minimum I would need along with equipment. As always funds are the problem. :(
