Your plant looks a lot like my outdoor-grown of unknown strain. Thanks for adding your strain info, I was trying to figure out what I had, and it may be a very similar type. I also live in area with those temps in October, and my plant had beautiful purple leaves and many bud...

4 x 4 room setup with 600W LED (277W draw) with veg and bloom switches. Light 18" above pots. 7 days after popping through soil.

I have a 600w LED (277W draw), and started my seedlings at 18" distance from it. I just moved the light to 20", as the plants are about 2.5" tall now and starting on the third node development (at 9 days after poking through the soil). The light I use has veg and growth switches, and I...

May be a silly question, but is you HID ballast inside or outside the tent?

My dogs love to eat the leaves, and if I cannot ensure they can't get to the outdoor plants, then I make a 'cage' around the plants with fence wire that is 3' or 4' tall. Wire that is rigid enough to stand on it's own and easy to work with - just a couple of stakes to keep it in place and...

I see some really inexpensive ones on e-bay, both the type with wired probe and the kind that are solid. For the price of some of them , a person could get several just in case one crapped out. Today I was in a local vape shop which sells cigars and they had these little humidity...

True - don't want to stress the little ones. I will try the inverted light/dark schedule in my soon-to-arrive tent for less heating cost during the winter months. I just bought a 3 X 3 tent to use in a different area of the garage (also unheated), and will do a comparison grow between the...

If flipping over from lights on during daytime to lights on at night, would you keep the lights on for 24 hrs (or more) then switch?

What instrument are you using for monitoring your grow humidity & temp? Brand, where to purchase, etc. is all appreciated info.

Maybe more info would help to identify what this plant was. Outdoor grow, with minimal 'manicuring', harvested in October when daytime temps in mid-teens and night down to 2-5 celcius. Height at harvest around 9-10'. Smelled like a grape popsicle - my favorite flavour. ;)...

Good idea to make use of 'free' heat in your garage. My garage is detached and is as cold as the outside. I may try that switch to running lights on when it's the coldest part of the 24-hr period, using less energy to heat the room during daytime when lights are out. Right now, the room...

This is my first indoor grow, after a couple of outdoor ones of modest success but still with tons to learn. I have a 4 X 4 room in the garage, which is insulated but the garage is not, and it can get fairly cold in winter here. I have a 600W LED (277W draw) with an oil-filled heater (with...
