if heat isn't an issue and you have adequate ventilation then I'd go the 400, but if you're not able to ventilate well - i.e just a computer fan or something similar, then go with CFLs. You can flower and flower well with HPS, but what spectrum are the CFLs you have?

if you want to actually produce some smokable bud from these plants, you're going to need several 42w or higher CFLs (2700k) per plant. - it's best to spread the light around the plants, so you'd want at least 2 on top and 1 either side..per plants that is. if it's just an experiment and you...

Go to a camping store or Wallmart and grab 3 of the emergency blankets - they're Mylar and dirt cheap. If you're lazy like me, just order them off ebay - they're prob like less than $2ea - so for under $10 you should get 3 dilvered to your door. Also you're gonna want to replace those lights...

mate the advice here on the forums in exactly that - advice. we recommend you don't grow in your parents house and while i know this is frustrating it's for your good and for theirs. the reality is, you may have to wait til you're a little older and move out before attempting a grow -...

3 pages of ppl telling him not to grow in his parent's house and he's still intent. scrap the snake cage idea - it won't work - it's hard enough keeping lights/temps/humidity under control for growing weed let along fucking with your poor snake's habitat - he'll bite you as payback for sure...

nice plants! what size pots are you using?

here's a start: https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/937-how-grow-marijuana.html Also, you WILL make mistakes during your first couple of grows, most of which can easily be rectified, however if you don't have any idea what you're doing you WILL kill the plant(s) - usually from silly things...

I've seen people using 125, even 250w CFLs in PC case grows, so as with any grow - the more light the better, as long as heat doesn't become an issue. During flowering you'd probably want 2x42w (2700k) and throw a 6400k spectrum one in there too and position them evenly around the plant. The...

yes, add around 25% perlite to your soil mix - it also has excellent oxygen retention which promotes root growth.

LOL you owe BigBudBalls a beer - he just saved your house and possibly your life :)

I'd wait til you 'find' a few more seeds before starting a grow - you could put in a month or two's effort to end up with a male. Having said that, it could be good practice if it's your first grow, so that you can learn from your mistakes and apply it to the next grow. But as with what the...

Have you got a hygrometer in your grow room to measure the heat and humidity levels? If not get one! if so, what are the readings? If heat is an issue then you're going to want to change the air in your grow room 3-5 times a minute (once every 2-3mins if using CFLs) with an exhaust fan and some...

Man this story angers me to no end. How destructive is sending this guy to jail going to be on his family? You'd get less time in jail for drink driving and killing another motorist - has this guy killed anyone? is marijuana a dangerous substance? has anyone ever died/OD'd on marijuana? NO! why...

my general understanding is NOT to give them any nutes - only water, for the first couple of weeks or you'll basically kill them from nute burn. when you start with the nutes you want to start at 1/4 strength with every other watering, some people increase the amount of nutes (say to 1/2...
