    Botanicare Hydroguard works great but.....

    I have used Botanicare Hydroguard to keep a healthy mix of bacteria that along with air will keep a batch of water with nutrients from turning into a smelly mess that will kill or harm your roots, fish, ect.. This involves live bacteria and their spores. Every bottle has a manufacture date and...

    ChiLLed LED Grow Lights still suck.

    Really? you going to spend that much money on a company that puts out a product before working out all the bugs...I bought the unit when they were using the same MW driver for both types of diodes. The VYPERx plus at 1190 u/mols is much more bang for the buck and has a cooling system design...

    Picking between a water chiller and a portable 2 hose AC...wait there is a 3rd option.

    MINI SPLIT AC....no ac tech required and not the expensive grow shop version. Bonus is that the seer rating for one of the units that caught my attention had a seer rating of 13. I am only two days into searching and it looks like a $800 or under unit is good enough. Any good or bad experiences?

    What's best.... SMD or COB grow lights?

    And yes I know there are lights that have a combination of both. Most high dollar grow lights seem to be based on one or the other. It has been only recently that Cree and Philips' Lumileds are offering an assortment of SMDs designed for horticulture....even going as far as saying this...

    Dear Midweek Song.... rose is a rose or not?

    So Lewis I have ordered a few times from you before the whole Credit Card thing hit the UK, was going to do a bank transfer sometime last year and was unable to do so because I did not have access to your sort code. Was of no matter... I found out that my bank would charge $40..no thanks...

    Paying for seeds

    Favorite seed bank not taking credit cards or you dont want Attitude to show up on your CC statement? Use TranferWise instead of bank wire. My bank charges $40 and makes it a hassle. You just have to make sure that your chosen seed bank can be trusted because once the money is sent there is...

    The Need for Seed

    I have been looking for a new seed supplier and a way to pay for it. Attitude is usually out of some of the high demand strains....especially since they have become the only UK bank that I know of that can process Visa. Tried to do a bank transfer.... they wanted this and that..SWIFT numbers...

    Bodhi is totally over rated.

    It looks like this seed breeder took a page right out of Dr. Greedthumbs playbook. Give the beans away to a certain few in exchange for pimping his inferior product. I have given Dream Lotus and his take on C99 and one was low yielding..the 99 and the other was Dream Lotus which was full of...

    Credit card orders or other payment methods.

    Attitude will take a Visa (no Master Card) for a USA order and it doesnt get processed through China. Tried to place CC order at Oaseeds but was offered (extra $15) Paypal. Tried to order from Midweeksong but I was missing some sorting numbers. Or I should say I never received the sorting...

    Ordering has become a pain in the back side with CC in UK and Paypal in Spain

    No more Herbies until they get their credit card processing resolved..along with Midweeksong. Tried the wire thing but the UK and Ireland have sorting numbers that are 3 pairs of numbers: xx-xx-xx... along with the usual bank routing info. I just paid an extra $11 to use Paypal for a Spainish...

    Cree CXB 3590

    I have been wanting to do a high CO2 grow but didnt have the tent, the right lighting (I use mostly T5 and the 4 pin cfl). My 600w ballast and bulbs have been in my storage unit long enough to gather dust. But now that LED is at a good price point and it produces a lot less heat than the 4 pin...

    Regular vs. Feminized

    I overheard a conversation where someone said to the other "why would you ever want to buy regular?" I thought to myself what a f'n idiot. Then I tossed a question to people I know personally and all though they didn't have a strong opinion about the subject didn't really know how fems are...

    Don't forget the four pin CFL...which is more like a T5

    The 55 watt 4 pin cfl can still be found at industrial supply sites. One ...1000bulbs has a web site and sells the 6500K that measures under 22 inches at 4800 lumens. You could fit four of these in a 24 inch four bulb T5 housing. Best of all they only cost $4.42 and will at least last a year...

    Feminized vs Regular seeds

    Google the above but in reverse and you will get a note some information from Greenhouse Seeds that fems are as good as reg. seeds. The only way someone can make that statement is if a strain's females can be turned to males at a 100% rate. Correct me if I am wrong.... if I have a success...

    Why Bitcoin is doomed.

    There are basically two groups in our economy. Those that produce and those that "administrate" or like the weasels in Washington like to put it..."serve their community". If the producers choose to circumvent the government by barter the govt. will only tolerate it if it makes up only a small...

    Peak seeds

    Heard good things about this breeder/bank. Sent an out a postal mo .....turned out to be the wrong one..nice enough to send email on the 24th of last month saying it will be sent back (have yet to receive it). So I sent out another order on the 1st of this month for some northern lights #5. I...

    DIY heat mat, get the size you want.

    I am a big fan of not creating more heat than you need, not to mention more room....firing up a large heat mat to pop a few beans blows. Those small reptile mats don't last very long. I just put together a heat mat from materials that are made by flexwatt. The "tape" comes in 11, 4, 6, 3, width...

    Slow mail plus cold....beans just sit there

    All of my orders have come from UK or Netherlands up until last order. It came from eastern Canada with a temp around -21F the day of order. I know that a seed can take cold but have read that several hard freezes and thaws will compromise the germ rate. Any experiences with this? I am using...

    The hell with the EURO tax.

    As an American your already doing more than your fair share defending the free world so why pay the VAT tax? Currently I know of only one bank who's owner is willing to go the extra mile and do the paper work so that US residents don't pay the 20% VAT tax. There may be more but as of now it is...

    DIY Rapid Rooters

    Google azodicarbonamide.... it is the stuff they use to give the bubbles to foam mats not to mention Wonder bread. Im also pretty sure that it is what is used for making Rapid Rooter plugs. The bubbles left behind contain small amounts of ammonia and other goodies and that is why it is band in...
