Not withstanding some deals around the net, that price range ($25 US) will not get you a "good" or "reliable" ph tester that will work for both soil and liquid solution testing. I personally will use a pool kit before trusting cheap pens to measure conductivity correctly ... Plenty of...

Use a three way lamp and compare the visual output you see. The staging difference between the mid and upper may be harder to discern but not impossible. Also triggering voltage for some 3 way bulbs will vary as to which stage they throw. Too much start load for the ballasts could effect...

(Random thoughts on "stealth" and size with that rig ... plus a note about staples ... I realize you have a plan and all that. Just tossing out some thoughts to flush out some of it maybe.) You want to control size. Reduction of sunlight with I'm guessing a 60% or so rated shade cloth is not...

Yes, we've already found similar occurrences on good ole Terra firma. Uhm, been a year or so now, but Mono Lake in Cali coughed up an arsenic based bacteria ... Darwin quotes about not knowing what's under our feet and all that rot. For all our quickly expanding knowledge, there is so...

And Okra. Some nice flowers and one of the strangest edibles ... slimy goodness.

Oh, that's right ... treadmills: http://youtu.be/dTAAsCNK7RA

Hmmm, UB's day job ... or at least this is what I imagine him doing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yx4QgK_xEfE

Let's just say I'm big into recycling. :) Typical use "cleaned" filters for first pass or in a pinch only is where I stand on them. So, on ground, in place filter, with newer filters up top or what not. Or run as first pass inline even. Used one acts as a moisture trap and all that. Hence...

And for recycling/revitalizing, you can "wash" and bake them. Best results (personal testing only, not in general) were removal of the material by submersion in water and then washes/submersions of H202/50% and Muriatic Acid. Most of what gets trapped is organic micro-particles that bind with...

Heh, this thread made me think of that scene in Club Paradise at the end where they kick out the garbage bag of weed and it lands in the islanders fire/dance circle. Course, darn old movie cant find that clip ... But this one is cute and makes me think of what must go through someone's head...

50 pound bales ... still a royal pain to handle or hide on most boats. I guess when one of the cartel people I crossed paths with said they were going to flood the market via new methods, I'd rather thought it wouldn't be by letting it just drift in. ;) Sort of makes me wonder how many...

This has been rattling in my head since I saw it. Not sure why this rings my bell per se, or why I got fixated on it, but I wanted to say thanks for the wonderful thoughts it created while working outside yesterday for sure. Though I should probably say I'm one of those people who tastes...

Dont forget to look for farm supply as well. People ignore "feed stores" and most of these tend to stock a very nice selection of organic gardening supplies. Often in bulk only, but it varies. Even lots of the major cities have supply stores within easy reach for the small ranch/hobby farm...

General note about flowering transition: more mature plants transition better/quicker ... Strong note on general. Some genetics will lean well enough in SOG's with min or zero veg time and all that rot. Just in general, the life-cycle of a plant mimicked into a shorted time span indoor...
