Thanks for the kind words....i think. Why did you have to "bust my balls" cuz you thought you had to?

Do you think I would go through this if that light couldn't penetrate paper? :cuss:

What are you working with?

I'm guessing ignorance is bliss...

How long untill people that know nothing at all stop talking... LEDS are not measured in lumens because plants dont give a shit about lumens.. 1 lumen is how bright a single candle is to the HUMAN EYE.. Seeing as plants see light in different spectrums and not by BRIGHTNESS... leds do not need to put out . Lumens , because lumens are not what a plant is looking for...

Im not going into the details because your not worth it but the info is out there... Look up LED PAR if your really interested

a ganja guru told me about the silica. he also has a bs in plant science, and has never steered me wrong before, so i tend to take his word. but dont take my word...research before you add abunch of sand to your mix. makes sense though - think about horsetails and how strong they are. and thats a thin, hollow stem.

not sure about posting external links on riu, but heres one for silica blast, minus the www part:

Well....ive been delaying this post for awhile. shit hit the fan a few weeks back and I tried

as hard as possible to keep this grow together but it wasnt possible. I had to shut down

things for the time being due to an unfortunate series of events. All in all...I just couldnt

find a home for them and had to chop em down. I shed a few tears as they each got the axe.

They were doing so well! 2 weeks into flower!!!! baahhhhhh!!


This is only temporary. I'm still looking for a new home and hopefully I'll be able to get back

on track in the coming weeks. For those who have been following/sub'ed...I'll update with a

post in this thread as soon as I get things back up and running so that if you want...you can continue to follow!


Cheers fellas and thanks for the support.
