    Using Condensate Water

    I have a 40 gallon container catching the condensate from my 2 ton split unit and my 70 pint dehumidifier. on a good/bad day I can get up to 12 gallons of condensate water. I started using some and am wondering if that is a good idea. The PPM's run around 50 - 60 and the PH is from 7.0 to 7.5...

    Mini Split AC Units

    I purchased a 2 ton split unit for a 12 x 24 room running 4 1,000 lights (naked) and the ballasts, dehumidifier and all are inside. The compressor is outside and painted and surrounded by potted ferns, etc. The only problem is the noise. Usually not much of a problem. I bought an Ideal Air Split...

    best medium to use for the Al b. fuct technique?

    Thank you for info. I also have the same size little black containers. I was going to use a 1,000 watt light (because I have it). May I be so bold as to ask what amount of yield you average per plant with a 600 watt lamp? Thank you.

    best medium to use for the Al b. fuct technique?

    GypsyBush - Have you used rockwool before? If so, why do you prefer hydroton? What size light do you prefer for a 3x3 tray? Was just going to try an SOG in a 3x3 so thanx for putting the thread right where I was reading. What PPM do you run? Why do you prefer that specific brand of Nutes? I...

    Annual or Perinneal?

    I have grown for a few years, twice outdoors. I am so used to grow and chop that it never even entered my mind if cannabis is an annual, or a perennial plant! If perennial, what happens if you harvest, cut it back dramatically and let it stay for next year. I saw this program where this guy in...

Outdoor plants start their flowering cycle around the second week of August. On August 14th the daily sun time (DST) is just...

    StinkBud Inspired - Bubble Gum, White Berry, Blue Cheese, Durban Poison

    GringoLoco... I like the setup and how it fits in a 4x8 tent. My question is this - How do you get to the reservoirs for changing/cleaning? The pump will not totally drain the reservoir so I'm wondering if it is a hassle moving everything to change and/or clean. What final dry amounts are you...

    1000 Watt RDWC Setup

    Why the chiller? Does the pump generate that much heat? Or is it your choice for a cooler reservoir to feed? What is your expected, or was your total harvest?

    1000 Watt RDWC Setup

    How long are you vegging them? What is your expected finished harvest? What is your feeding schedule? I take it the 3/4" flex is your overflow? Are you using regular Home Depot type 5 gallon buckets? If so, how do you modify the lids? What size net pots are you using? TIA

    Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

    Not sure of nomenclature, but... The Stinkbud system consists of 3 flowering racks (each containing two posts, each post containing from 3 to 7 plants). One rack per 3 week period, rotating. You say that you have a 600 watt light per 2 "Stinkbud systems". I take it you mean per 2 racks. So my...

    Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

    I agree in general about an open flame, but then is that not what greenhouse type gas/propane CO2 generators are? Here is the link again. The question remains... Will this generate enough CO2 for a 500 cu ft room...

    Hope this topic fits in here. I know you can get a light mover, and that makes sense as far as $$$ goes. But what if I got a lazy-Susan and hooked it up to a one (1) RPM motor and had the PLANT go in circles? I could then have two naked 600W lights vertically in the middle of a square of 4...

    Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

    Probably off topic, but... I love the nutrient formula. I pour the old stuff into my garden and the effect is amazing!!! Could you use this same formula with a coco grow? I really don't see why not, but your the expert, not I.
