Hey RIU, I've been looking through here, and have been increasingly interested in LEDs. Mostly due to the claim of less heat output than HID/CFLs. I'm in need of help looking for an LED that has an actual draw of around 100-160~ watts. Most likely 180w-240w LEDs. I've done quite a bit of...

Hey RIU, Just thought I'd do kind of a "final post" thing lol. My last plants herm'd on me and it kinda came with an epiphany. I've been so sucked into this growing thing that I've realized that I almost neglected a lot of things... Not really neglected, but if I wasn't working my 10-12 hr...

Hey RIU I'm currently on my first grow right now and my NL auto is 51 days from seed. It's in a one gallon smart pot, and I have reason to believe it's about to be rootbound pretty soon. A lot of the lower leaves have turned yellow and I've had to trim well into flowering. (I wanted to avoid it...

Hey RIU, I'm actually about three-four weeks away from harvest, but I want to try to get a head start on this drying process as it will be my first time. I actually don't have anywhere else to dry the finished buds except in my small box that I'm growing in. I was wondering if that's ok to be...

Hey RIU, For those who have seen my posts, sorry for posting a bunch of times, it's just I've made some recent developments. My plant has been showing reddish brown dots and yellowing of leaves. Lower leaves are starting to turn brown and crisp and die off. Half of the rest of the leaves half...

Hey RIU. My Nirvana NL auto is about a month and half old, and it's been flowering I think for the past two and a half weeks or so? I've had some thrips problems I think, but I've used azamax and a chili spray about five times and it seems to have settled down. Don't see anymore, but if I do, I...

Hey RIU. I've recently having a bit of a pest problem I think. I have bitten leaves, but past few days, I haven't seen anything. (Sprayed 1/2 str azamax two days ago). Just now I found this small thing crawling on the OUTSIDE of my box. Might be what's eating at my plants? Any help would be great.

Hello RIU! I desperately need some insight on anyone using azamax, or anything similar to it such as neem, bug off, etc. Three days ago, I sprayed my NL auto with azamax, b/c I finally found some evidence of some random little bug (I'm going with thrips) eating my crop. I took a 1/4 tsp of it...

Hello RIU Lately I've noticed small brown blotches on a few leaves, and little white blotches on about a third of my leaves with small bite like holes on some others. At first I was convinced it was a spidermite/thrip problem... but I've yet to notice any bugs, even after putting bunch of...

Hello RIU I'm experiencing some pretty bad heat issues with my 150w HPS. Got a 100CFM inline fan attached to 4x8 phresh and a case fan bringing in cool air, and a 5" O2 fan for air circulation. I've tried doing everything possible to bring the temps down. I added another 4" hole for passive...

Hey RIU, My Nirvana NL auto is five or six days into flower, and I've noticed some of my leaves are a little deformed and see some white specks. I haven't noticed any webs or much else, so I'm thinking its thrips... I have some floramite coming in the mail, but I've read that it takes about 28...

Hey RIU Recently I think I've just killed my five day old seedling from heat, and I'm considering just dropping a new bean. But my question is, can I take out the dead seedling and drop a new bean in the same old cup? Nothings been done to it except watering it twice. Thanks in advance!

Hello RIU I've just recently switched my cfls out for a 150 HPS due to my girl entering flowering. My stealth cab which measures 36x21x19, is equipped with a 100 CFM inline fan attached to 4x8 phresh filter, and a 45 CFM case fan for intake. Also have a 5" O2 fan for circulation. Lately the...

Hello RIU, I know, most of you are like "another 12/12 thread" go check del's and I have, not all of it, but went through a good chunk of pages. So I have gathered a bit of intel, and I had some questions that I need a second opinion on... I plan to do a 12/12 sometime after my auto finishes...

Hello RIU It's about that time when my grinder needs to be cleaned, and I wanted to make qwiso with it. The only problem is, from what I've heard, it's a pretty strong smell of alcohol, and I don't have the option to let it air dry in the open. So I thought about putting it in the box where the...

Hello RIU Just a quick question concerning temps inside my box. I have two different thermometers, just to be safe. So I have my digi thermometer sitting on top of my soil right next to my plant, and it reads 80-87F~ with 150w HPS and 65w cfl running. On the other hand, my other thermometer...

Hello RIU! I'm starting my first grow, and I just xfered from jiffy -> ffof and perlite (roughly 70/30). My concern right now is temps in the box. It's a 36x26x19 box lined with 6mil black/white poly. Got two holes, one for intake one for exhaust. Exhaust fan I'm using S&P TD100 inline fan...

Hello riu, I just started my grow, and I have a 150w HPS mini sun built in ballast with an S&P TD100 fan attached to a 4x8 phresh filter. As for intake I have a simple case fan pushing maybe 40~cfm in. Also have an O2 5" fan coming in the mail. Measurements of my box is 36Hx19Wx21D, and my...

Hello riu, this is my first grow and i just want to make sure i get these small details down. i'm sure this question has been asked a bunch, but i can't seem to find an exact answer on any forums. So i have a 4x8" CF attached to the S&P TD100 fan right now. The set up is CF -> Fan -> Exhaust. I...
