    75% Argon 25% CO2!

    All small buds! Buds don't seem to be growing

    See the pics. The buds are all very small. They don't seem to be growing. Week four of flowering. 1 600 watt HPS and 1 400 MH. Botanicaire nutes. Modified "StinkBud" setup. This is my first grow but shouldn't they be bigger? Milt

    More light the better? Even if it's the wrong spectrum?

    I have a HPS 600 watt light with a grow bulb. I also have a 400 watt light with a 4,000 k light bulb. If I mount the 400 watter with the 600 HPS would this help? It does not even qualify for a grow bulb because of the 4000K. Would it cause "stretching" because of the very blue color...

    Interupted Light Cycle

    I have a 400watt MH pulse start ballast with a 400watt HPS conversion bulb. The bulb works for about 5 hours before shutting off. I replaced it with my MH grow bulb for now. I ordered a 600 watt HPS to replace the 400 watt. I figured the area (4 x 3.5 x 9 tall) needed more light anyway...

    I have some stupid questions about ph and tds meters

    I have a Milwaukee tds meter. Does this meter need to soak in "Buffer Solution"? Or can it dry out? I have a cheap PH meter. It says to "keep tip wet with potassium chloride" Can I leave this soaking in "Buffer Solution"? The reason for this is I had a PH meter go bad. (Milwaukee)...

    What area of the plant is best for cloning?

    I have some plants about 6 weeks old. I want to clone them before flowering. None of the "branches" have more than one set of leaves. From what I have read you must clone a "branch" with multiple sets of leaves. I should wait for "branches" or can I clone a single fan leave? I include...

    Can I clone running lights 18/6?

    I am going to take some cuttings and would like to leave them in the VEG room. The lights run 18/6. Will this be o.k.? Also, at what height should a person begin taking cuttings? Thanks, Milt

    What happens in low humidity conditions?

    I just added a heater (little milkhouse style) and now the humidity is around 40%. Should I ditch the infra red fan milkhouse and go with a oil filled radiator style? Or add a humidifier? What if I do nothing? My "tomatoes" are looking o.k. Milty

    11 Day old plants REALLY stretching!

    I germinated 20 seeds on the 13th. They are getting so tall they are falling over. I am using a 7" tall humidome and 4' fluorescent light. The light is 1" away from the top of the dome. The medium is rockwool 1.5" cubes. I will try to post pics Wednesday. Should I tie them to straws...

    Germination troubles?

    I just germinated some "Bubblicious seeds. I think I left them too long. They are completely out of the shell and there are what look like two small leaves that are yellowish brown. Is it worth putting them into the rockwool? Another question, which way do you put the little stem...

    How do I transition from germination to aquamist?

    I have a question, how do you go from germination to the aquamist? Do you put it on top of the medium? Do you need a "cube" and then transfer it to the grow medium after it roots? Thank you for your time, Milty
