    Well I hope it is good enough for tonight. The wife said the sheet goes down to about 2 feet from the bottom. So it is not completely covered. I think the wire will generate enough heat to make up for it "I hope!". I forgot to mention last weekend I taped wood popsicle and paint sticks onto...

    Going down to 27 for me tonight. Looks like my heat wire and sheet is going to get put to the test! Won't get to check things out until tomorrow evening.

    Some handle frost better than others. Like I have seen people say on other threads. Some plants are the last thing still standing green while everything else around has long wilted and turned brown. Big healthy plants might do just fine. Keep us posted.

    I don't know from direct experience but from reading I think it can take up to a couple of days before you know your in the clear. I think a real hard frost you can see the next day but some damage may not show for two or three days. Any chance you can throw a frost blanket on top of them for...

    Here we go again. I got my timer setup yesterday for the heat wire. It will come on at 7PM and turns off at 10AM. Low of 41 tonight. I will have the wife throw a sheet over them starting tomorrow night. I took the plastic down. I put a big metal post in the middle to prop the sheet off the...

    I have been using neem oil too. I have been spraying the tops and bottoms of the leaves then a little spritz at the bottom. Never watered it into the ground though. I have Gordons Garden Guard Insecticide. Its a white powder that I use down low. Got it at Tractor Supply on clearance for...

    Just checked on my plants before dark. The widow is looking good but the Nirvana freebie still looks like pre-flowers. Probably sativa dominant. The fingers on the leaves are narrower and spread out more than the WW. Will post pics tomorrow. Got my first tea mixture "brewing" right now...

    That is one of the reasons I stayed away from any kind of fish emulsions. Been spraying liquid fence on a regular basis. That stuff smells god awful. I never fail to get it on my hand when spraying it too.

    Do you think Grandma's Molasses is a good enough supplement for potassium? I think it says 22% on the bottle. The bat guano is only .2 K. I am thinking that might be the only spot I am lacking in nutrients. At least that I can think of.

    I probably would have used FF again for this grow if I had not gotten rid of everything. I blame myself for anything that went wrong, other than the chart does seem to be very aggressive. I am still tempted to pick up FF Big Bloom (0.01-0.3-0.7) again. Anyone using it outside?

    I used the Fox Farm Trio for indoor last year. I got nute burn each time by the time I started flowering. My plants were not huge and I did not have much experience. The second time around I was careful and used a lot less than what the chart recommended and still got some nute burn (not...

    So did anyone else have to deal with frost earlier this week? I am heading back up this afternoon for the weekend. Its been beautiful weather since the frost "says the wife". Hopefully we don't see that again for a long while. Low to mid 50's for the evening lows. Does the cooler air slow...

    Mini Green House to finish flowering

    I made this over the weekend to protect from some early frost that we got (went down into the low 30's in Northern MI". This was just temporary I have a heat wire that you would use on your roof to keep the snow and ice from building up in your gutters. Worked great but now it is time to move...

    I have been thinking about trying to make a cheap PVC hoop house. The current setup was just to get through this freak frost we had. I already have a big roll of plastic. I only need it to be 5'x3.5'x5.5' tall. My only worry is humidity and bud rot. Is their a simple solution to control...

    I would agree but a low of 33 degrees and 36 tomorrow night is freakishly cold for this time of year. After tomorrow night the lows are 49 - 52 for the night. So maybe the space heater is jumping the gun for the short term. My plants have just started to flower. So I have a feeling I will be...

    North West lower Michigan just South of the 45th parallel. It seems more like the arctic circle tonight.
