I wrote this for budsnbeavers which is a brand new Canada focused Cannabis forum. Wanted to share here as well, maybe a few people will find it useful, or some of you OG will have ideas how to make it better. Covers identifying circuits and their rating, some example grow setups for 15 & 20amp...

Moved up North Canada two years ago on the coast and been having all types of issues with slugs and snails, vicious little buggers. Have tried all types of different things but they all seem to have their problems. Like works good but needs maintenance, reapply every week etc. Chatted with an...

Been a longtime since I posted here and things sure have changed a lot! I have a garage I am looking to setup a grow tent in, space isn't an issue and since I am in Canada I want to maximize what i can get out of the 4 plant scenario. I was looking at this...

Well I have been "flat growing" for a few years with 2x600W but with a move coming up I really want to step it up a level. Reason being the house we decide to rent will be rented with this size and style of grow in mind. The Plan 3x1000W Vert (Probably Octagon Style) flip flop For now no...

So I recently had to move into the city which puts a new twist on growing for me. Before I never had to worry much about sound and smell as I lived in the sticks. Now noise and smell are a huge concern. The Space: I will be forced to grow in an apartment and at the very best a duplex. Only...

Been out of the loop for awhile and have seen these mentioned. They sound excellent. Anybody have any links where I can read up on them or any discussions here? I have looked but found nothing so far. Also checked a few of my favourite online suppliers and didn't see the bulbs or ballasts listed...

I recently moved to Quebec from BC. In BC I had a general idea of what max kwh you could use before hydro got suspicious I also knew that BCHydro worked hand in hand with the RCMP in spotting grow-ops and even had the power to send one of their inspectors out with only 48 hours notice under the...

After a long absence from RIU I'm back and looking forward to helping out and lurking once again. Hello to all :joint:

Just wondering what peoples favourite Blogs and sites are for keeping up on Marijuana news from around the world :peace:

Well i recently decided to do a 12/12 from seed with some bagseed. Plants in the pictures are about 5 weeks old. I have to move for work and only have 16 days left to grow these plants...9 in total. Will cutting the light to 8-10 hours speed the maturing up at all. I would like to get at least...

Well this is my first indoor grow. Had a few thousand seeds from some plants that we let go to seed this summer. No idea on the strains but there were definetly 4 different strains when we let them go to seed. Every 3 of them were heavy and i mean heavy couchlock. 1 was pretty mellow and mild...

Well day before yesterday my 4 inch vortex that was cooling my 2 600W lights kicked the bucket. Couldn't wait the 7-10 days obviously for a new one so i had to go ghetto!! Picked up a 10 inch 524 CFM Can Fan from the local nursery (The only place in town that had inline fans) for $70. Got it...

I woke up this morning to my 4 inch vortex vibrating the hell out of my first light. The fan is solid mounted on a wall. The fan itself does not seem to be vibrating but the air coming out is so rough now that it is vibrating the the hood and light it runs to. Returning it for a new one will...

Was thinking today what would happen if the fan keeping your hoods cool dies? Do the hoods and lights just keep heating up until they either rupture, light something on fire, or possibly fry your plants? And if you are on a plane travelling 600mph and you get up and walk towards the front are...

Curious to see how hot peoples air cooled reflectors get. I have 2 600W ELD air cooled hoods cooled by a 4 inch vortex i think it runs at 175 CFM. Both hoods stay pretty cool under the glass i can hold my hand 1 inch under the glass no problem. The sides get a bit hot but i can keep my hand on...

Hello all, Just started my first indoor grow and am looking for opinions/criticism. The table for the floor is 4x8 in 8x8 space covered by 2 600W lights. Will fill the table in a few days. Plants are from a crop i let go to seed this summer and really liked what it produced no idea on the...

Well it is time for my first real grow :bigjoint:Have 25 little fellas under 8 40watt fluoros right now. Strains are unknown. I grew a outdoor crop this summer from bagseed and let them go to seed. Was very happy with the quality from them all. So going to veg these guys for a bit longer and...

Hello all, Fairly new to the indoor growing game but have been reading these boards alot and have learned a ton. I have a spare room 9x7x8 (LxWxH) it also has a closet in it that would be perfect for some mothers. My problem is that the Max amps i can draw is 15. It is a rental or i would run...
