    Actually, it didn't work worth a shit.. Next time I'm going with perlite/vermiculite. If you're doing a small grow, I'd definitely recommend getting a WaterFarm. I got much better growth from a WaterFarm than a hempy bucket: the $65 or so for the kit will soon pay for itself in the increased...

    400 watt Mh/Hps: Grow on a Budget: A Beginner's Reference

    I would advise against skimping on ventilation. Spending a few bucks on a decent inline fan now will save you the heartache of heat stress later.

    CFLs, LEDs, Car head lights, street lights doesn't work

    He's trying to be funny and failing miserably. I'm not sure if LED is ready for prime time yet, but it's getting better all the time and a few of the most recent grows I've seen have been pretty impressive. As the price goes down and the wattage goes up, I think it will be the wave of the...

    Brugmansia in a (big) Hempy Bucket?

    My wife has become interested in growing indoor Brugmansias (can't blame her, really: they're lovely plants). For those who don't know, Brugs require lots of watering (although they need well-drained soil), lots of fertilizer, and lots of light. This made me think that it might be worthwhile...

    5 Feminized DP Twilights, Hempy Buckets

    Got a little over an oz. of very nice smoke: sweet taste, a bit couchlocky but a great body buzz. (Given that Twilight is 100% Indica, that's about what I expected). Also got a couple trays of Space Cakes out of the trimmings, which were even nicer.:eyesmoke: I'm going to put a bigger...

    5 Feminized DP Twilights, Hempy Buckets

    Instead of using a HPS light, I decided to take full advantage of the southern exposure on our balcony. I just moved the two survivors (otherwise known as the Madeline sisters) inside today. My experiment with Hempy buckets proved a bit disappointing However, the buds produced in a...

    Hempy vs. Waterfarm

    In mid-August I transferred two Dutch Passion Twilights from their smaller Hempy buckets to larger quarters. One was placed in a 2 gal bucket: the other in a 2 gallon Waterfarm. Here is the plant which was grown in the Hempy Bucket and here is the plant which was grown in the Waterfarm...

    Ratio to make whatever....

    Here's how I do cannabutter: approximately 14g of vaped weed added to 6c or so of water and 2 sticks of butter. Place in crockpot or slow cooker, bring to boil on "High" setting for a few minutes, then leave to simmer on "Low" for as long as you'd like. (I've had the best results doing this in...

    Aging cannatreats?

    Since I have begun cooking with cannabis, I have noticed that space cakes seem to get more potent the longer they stay in the fridge. A batch which is very nice when it's completed will be absolutely lethal two weeks later. I'm wondering if oxidization and other chemical processes don't...

    Double Gum - 46 days Flowering

    When I checked her today, I noticed she was starting to pop bananas here and there -- so I figured no better time to harvest than the present. The yield was 24g wet; the buds are sticky, lemon-scented and surprisingly tight for being grown mostly under CFLs. I'm presently drying them in a...

    12/12 from seed Sativa - thoughts

    I haven't done it but I would think that 12/12 from seed would be ideal for equatorial sativas. After all, that's basically what they get in the wild.

    Double Gum - 46 days Flowering

    Well, she's back under CFLs -- the HPS bulb blew (my second one). Rather than replacing the bulb again, I'm thinking about scrapping out the damned light altogether and getting a CoolTube for my next flowering, which should be happening in a couple weeks. (I'm not thrilled with HTG's discount...
