    New Grower seeking soil advicd

    I've had good luck with a 2:1 ratio of Pro-Mix:Earthworm Castings as a base soil and the only thing bottled I use is calmag. Calmag is a band-aid/duct tape for damn near anything systemic. I top feed from there. Add only water for the life of the plant.

    Yes! That's my plan! I've got more room in both rooms, than I'm using and I do have a couple other LED's that I can hang atop any other's I bring into each room! In your opinion, if I were to add supplemental light to each room, what would you add? I've got some CFL's, floro T-5's and a 300w...

    Definitely read that about PM, and since my issues with it were years ago, I think I won. Using the stuff I did was a long, hard fight. I've seen absolutely no signs/symptoms in a few years, but I left those bags out in my 2nd garage in case it had a expiration period. I'll burn them after the...

    I've got 2 of my 'racks' going now, as I popped 2 MOB clones into it yesterday. The first one(TD x 2) is a few weeks ahead this(MOB x 2) new one on 18 hours of light. I've got workbench-like table where I put my cloner and baby plants that I'm going to put the remainder of my small...

    I was trying to stay away from doing a sulphur burn in my house. Do you think that though my rooms have had no signs of PM, that it's still not gone?

    Dude, that's one fight that I definitely don't want to fight again(my first outdoor grow was in bags next to my lilacs which were loaded with PM), and I had to fight that off for about 4 months of spraying different agents every day(peroxide, organic apple cider vinegar(w/the mother), baby...

    Fubard, my lights have two settings. On & Off. The colors are what they are, but I have kept the lights approximately 24" - 26" above them. I can get a little closer if you think that'd help. Too much, too quickly is my middle name, so yeah man that could be very true as well. My problem(one of...

    I must be lucky, as here in Maine, I can go to one of a number of caregiver-owned storefront dispensaries and get damned near anything for $15 a clone, plus if they're selling clones they've probably got some bud for sale, so I'll get a few buds to taste if they've got something new. Another...

    Do you think I should just scrap the whole rack deal and just grow all my stuff like you're doing? So, don't use tape? Just twist ties?

    RIBrian! Gotta love New England!! When I first moved north from Fort Lauderdale, I lived in North Conway NH, so I went from super-flat and hot to wild mountains and snow/ice, but I LOVE it and would NEVER go back! Those look nice and I like the under screen shot! That shows me that I'm in the...

    lol, I remember buying 'Lettuce Hash' from High Times when I was a teen in the 70's.. It seems everything you 'sent away for' to their classifieds was total shit and a money-soak! So so so have been down that road!!

    The reason I ask about the outdoor grow is I'm 100% unlimited( as far as I could ever be) in height, as my raised bed boxes have 8 foot tall 2x2's for support, but I still want more tops than a Christmas Tree-looking plant!. I just did my 2nd topping, but I'm waiting for a few nodes before I do...

    Oh yes indeed, I rooted that cut( I try to make it my business to root every cut I take )! It's actually outside in it's own 4' x 4' x2' tall raised bed box! The other 2 Tangerine Dream cut, I left in the solo cups until they had roots hanging out of the bottom cut-holes in those cups! The 2...

    Blurple Led Yes or NO?

    Do you think that fact that I just let shit go nuts in veg and don't try to clear out the bottom until just prior to flipping? I try to let enough of those lower branches grow out so they're almost like little plants of there own by the time I take a cut. BUT, even after I've gone in and...

    Blurple Led Yes or NO?

    I use these racks because I was just copying something someone else had done and was just trying to make it easier to move them next-door to my flower room with ease. I can lift stuff and aren't in a wheelchair yet(lol). I guess the easiest way to explain it was I'm a student of too many...

    hotrodharley, that pic on top that you that you said you supercropped for me, I noticed you also pinched/topped the branches. Do you have a regular 'rule-of-thumb' for doing that(like every so many nodes..) or do you just look at it like shaping the whole deal... more artist-y? I just popped my...

    Oh, I see. Perpetual Harvesting is kinda what I'm trying to do, but I do have some periods(like now), that I've got to wait a few weeks to flip my next veg run. I clone off every single plant I have and try to keep thing moving, though. Non-New Englander's usually don't know about MOB(Mother...

    Dude, those are the BALLS!!! I'd scrap my racks if I could get plants like that in one pot! Are those 10 gallon bags? I bend and snap my branches, but never have at that early of a stage. I REALLY need to pick your brain about this venture! Thank you very much for not making me feel like...
