    Is it bad to change vegging hours from peak to off peak?

    Just switch the lights over. Geeze - what do you guys do if you have a power outage? Nothing is going to happen. Switch the timer and start saving a few bucks.

    Square footage / plant quantity question

    Hi, I would think more plants that are smaller. 2 week veg is likely a lot. I always threw my plants into flower when they got to about 8 inches. They would finish at between 2-3 feet. 1000 watters will penetrate 4 feet of foliage with a new bulb, so you always have light hitting the...

    First Attempt at Vertical

    Your system looks great..easy to construct, and alter - simplistic is a great way to grow, good job. I look forward to hearing and seeing what you plan to do to improve it.

    root bound ?

    It shouldn't. It's just easier with say 10-15 gallons to maintain.. you can run it for a week without having wild PH swings... just top up with ph'ed water and mix well and you won't see anything bad happen.My plants drink alot more when heat is an issue. What are your temps?

    root bound ?

    I was growing 12 plants in 6 totes at one point and getting almost 2 lbs under 2000 watts doing 2 plants in each 15 gallon tote. 2 1/2 ounces of bud per plant.. not "small yeilding" by my definition.. but to each their own.

    can clones vary from same mother?

    Clones taken from different parts of the plant WILL grow differently to start. They are still the same genetic make up..and should catch up - but lower branch clones for example will generally root faster and grow bigger initially than clones taken from the top of the plant. You will get...

    root bound ?

    After re-reading the thread.. I change my mind.. you aren't getting that good of advice.. MY POINT is -you should try to have at least a 5 gallon res or bigger. The amount of water acts as a buffer for the PH fluctuations. Not per plant... that's insane. I made the reference to 2-3 plants...

    bubble bag

    not usually alot of crap.. I find when I use a grinder when I make hash I get a lot more hash.. but the quality isn't that much less that anyone would ever notice.. I can tell a little bit when I make it .. but it tastes the same and you get just as high. Try it once ground up, and the next...

    root bound ?

    It is ok.. smaller plants will uptake less nutes, and you won't be running your res with high nute dosages at that point, so your drift should be minimal - a word of advice if you are going to small res.. learn how to properly set your res PH and then don't even check your PH. Don't mess with...

    HELP!!! expertise needed!!!

    Yup, I follow you.. that's why if you re-read my post before dismissing it so quickly you'll note I said (and no need to capitalize it).."you are sticking to the feeding schedule..(which implies I KNOW you are feeding something).. and not adding anything". (which goes hand in hand with the next...

    HELP!!! expertise needed!!!

    What do you mean when you say you "are sticking to the feeding schedule and not adding anything"... If the right answer to your question is - add more Nitrogen.. guess you are fucked eh? A properly cared for plant is green right until harvest.. this "yellow leaves is normal" stuff is said by...

    Wtf is on my plants.

    You may be on to something.. but I still think that they are an infestation covering the plant - if not spider mites, then maybe Ghost Beetles. :lol:

    Are you sure it's not spider mites? you could try killing them with neem oil.... ;-)

    Tips for a beginner?

    Check ebay.. sometimes you can find a 250 watt HID combo light with a MH and HPS bulb for a little over $100. That will work for 2-3 plants, and you can figure you can pull like 1/4lb out of one.. not too shabby for a small space. You don't have to "sterilize" anything.. just get pots and wash...

    Machine that produces constant CO2?

    co2 generators are machines that constantly put out c02. Usually it's propane from what I've seen, but I saw a link to a NG unit the other day. They have mushroom bags that are supposed to release a good amount of co2 and then you get a bag of shiitake ushrooms at the end of your grow, but I...
