If worse comes to worse, I can try again. But this is what I did... Took cuttings from lower part of plants, put in water. Cut 45 degree under water and made small nicks with xacto knife under water. Covered wet stem with rooting compound. Placed in pots that are a mix of 1/3 Perlite, 1/3...

Ok, another question about changing lights to flower... I had poster earlier and someone said that a HPS for flowering is the way to go. But... in regards to Fluorecents; does changing to a warmer bulb/s (3000K) do any good? The space is 3ft x 3ft with six 3400 lumen, 6500 K(daylight) bulbs...

Yes, that does help. Appreciate everyones input.

Does anyone know if you can safely put 4 foot, 75 watt bulbs into 40 watt Fluorescent fixtures? I saw at Lowes that they had 75wt fluoro tubes. But anything I have seen (or have) as far as hanging shoplights are all for 40 watt bulbs or less.

Erowid has a basic guide that you can use and expand on.

Just wondering... does switching to warmer lights (more orange/yellow) really help the number or size of flowers?

At first there were no problems, but after dosing 2-3 times a week for over a year I noticed itching when dosing. Even after holding off for months... the same symptoms occured. Benedryl at the start of a trip helps now (50mg). There have never been any recorded deaths from Psilocybe...

So this chick has a cheezey/hot babe avater, uses what seems to be a "real" name, has 103 posts, and has never gotten high before...Hmmm? uh... Fed.

I use "Bio-grow" from Worm's way. It is a molasses based organic product you use with every watering to soil grown plants that gives a constant low dose infusion of nitrogen. Good stuff and will not cause burn. As far as flowering: "Bio-bloom" (also an organic molasses based product) is a...

You can get syringes at the Farmers co-op. They use them for giving animals shots. Just go in and tell them you need some 20 guage 2 inch syringes to give your large dogs shots. Works every time and they are dirt cheap and sterile.

Yes, heat is what starts the growth of the mycellium. The ideal temp range is 75- 78 degrees ambient air. In other words; the air around the jars should be 75-78. The temp in the jars tend to be about 3 degrees higher than ambient. Thus... 78-81 will be the temp in the jars (ideal internal...

I have heard of this before. An old farmer (real farmer) mentioned it once years ago, but I never really understood it until now. When should this be done? can it still be done at the very beginning of the 12/12 cycle with decent results?

Peach... been doing the "Kitchen Chemist" thing for years now. You are exactly right.

Try this... 8 ..."1/2 pint" jars. mix 1/4 cup fresh ground Brown rice with 2/3 cup Vermiculite and 1/4 cup distilled water. **** This IS the widely accepted new PF Tech formula**** Place 1/4 cup Verm in bottom of jars. (less time collonizing). Add mixture. place 1/4 cup verm on top of...

I went to that site and it came up as a laundry list of mushroom sites, kinda like "bizrate.com with no specific "kits" to buy. If you really want to get seriuos about being a "kitchen chemist" go to Mycotopia.net. Search the archives and ask questions. But... I will tell you this much so far...

Yeah, Fox Farm "Ocean Forrest" is the shit. Big fat wide leaf babies that grow like crazy. After 3-4 weeks add Fox Farm "Peace of Mind Fruit & Flower" monthly to replenish the nutes.

Bat guano is good. I use it about twice during a grow. I also use Fox Farm soil and it is the best. If your kids are suffering... Bat guano may not absorb fast enough. That would make me think that a "quick fix" may be in order. So... since Fox Farm products are top shelf and liquid nutes that...

I have been using Molasses since the babies were about 1 month old with every watering (package says it's safe to do so). But, looking at the nutrient information on the bottle... it seems to me to be just a regular low concentration nute feeding. You know, just enough nutes to keep things...

A friend of mine cuts his lights for 2-3 days mid way through flowering and says he gets bigger buds. I tried it and only noticed a small increase. Actually... the darn things looked healthier than before I killed the lights for 2 days. Who woulda thunk it?

At what point should the lights be changed to warmer/yellow lights for budding? currently using flouros that are "daylight" mixed with "cool white". As pre-flowering begins to show sex ? after 12/12 is reached? after baby buds appear? any help would be great. Thanks.
