    Is it common for first leaves (not cotyledons) to drop?

    Is it common for the first leaves of a healthy seedling (not the cotyledons, but the first jagged leaves that appear) to yellow before there are 5 healthy leaf sets? Just wondering. Someone told me that it is, but I do not remember having had that happen when growing in soil.

    can I flower using hps one day, and sunlight the next?

    Not growing yet, but curious. Wondering, when I have plants in flowering stage, can I alternate between hps and direct sunlight outdoors? Every other day, my plants spend their 12 hours outside let's say. Is this likely to stress the plants? Also, what if instead I were to alternate hps...

    Does any research indicate that the body absorbs more nutrients when you get THC?

    This is something I've been wondering about. I read that THC dilates the blood vessels in the brain. I read that it is effective at slowing down amyloid plaque formations and tangles in the brains of Alzheimer's victims. Can't help but wonder if these things are due to THC allowing the body...

    Has anyone bought and used cheap 400 watt low or high bay MH lites form ebay?

    Metal halide lights. The following example isn't really cheap, but I've seen the same lights as these sold MUCH cheaper on ebay. Of course, anyone knows that it is a big risk, buying used lights such as these. I'm really just curious to see if anyone has bought and used with good success...

    What do you think of this size hood for 400 watt HPS/MH?

    The hood on this MH/HPS light is huge. 3'Lx1.5W. All 4 sides are bent to 45-60 degrees. Metal has a mirror-like finish. Would this hood be too large for the area that a 400 watt grow light is able to serve? (Can't post a pic. Sorry.)

    white paint or reflective mylar with 400watt mh/hps?

    Hi there. I see that many folks with cfls are using reflective mylar with them. Well, let's say I have a room that is 10'L x 7'W x 7'H, and a 400 watt hps lamp. (mh conversion bulb used for veg, then switch to hps bulb for flowering.) Would it be better for the plants to cover the walls with...

    Is there a plug-in thermostat, like for a space heater?

    I have a quartz space heater. Well, you know the light timers that you plug your lights into, then you plug the timer into the wall? I'm wondering if there is a thermostat like that that I can plug my heater into. Anybody know?

    Hypothetical question about mh, hps, and yields...

    Purely hypothetical, so please don't bite my head off, m'kay? ;) Curious about this. 10 week harvest, 21 days veg, 49 days flowering. I know that I should shoot for a minimum of 30 days veg, but let's say 21 days veg for this question. Okay. Lets say I have a 400 watt setup (ballast...

    Is this what being high from weed feels like?

    In 36 years, I've never been able to get high from weed. It even made me sick the few times I tried smoking it in earnest. I got my Mom vaporizing for health reasons, but I normally don't partake. Well, the other day, I took like 5 hits off her vape. Hurts my chest and makes me cough for 2...

    Question about wiring for lights (cfls)?

    Hi. This question may have been asked milliions of times, and it may even be in some faq somewhere. Unfortunately, my internet search capabilities seem to suck, so I am unable to find the info here. I know how to wire a series of light sockets in parallel. Due to an electronics class 4...
