Thanks Rodrigo!

Thanks FD!

Just have a quick question about what most consider as day one for their plants. Do you start counting from the day the seeds pop, from the day planted into the grow medium, from the day the plant sheds the seed husk, or something different?

I'm on day 31 of my first grow. (Plan on posting my journal later) These are just an indoor fem mix and have no idea what they may be at this point. Growing in a DWC with cfls I've ran into a few problems and setbacks but they seem to be pretty healthy My ph is good but I'm worried about my pump...

Thanks CloudBlood!! I HAVE been reading up on some DIY CO2 methods that I was going to try. I didn't really think about it helping with the temps but that makes sense. I've got the room insulated with some good R19 that I had stored in my attic from back when I worked for the Pink Panther many...

No problem fish cake! :) ANY input is good input! You either learn what's right or what's wrong.

Thanks man but I think I've got it figured out. I'll find out soon. I'm going to insulate my reservoir and dump conditioned air onto my air pump that is feeding a couple of air stones in the bottom. Should find out in a week of all goes well!

Thanks for the encouragement fish cake! Yes, I've been trying to check out something new every night. I've been surprised at all the different methods of growing and it's like a good book that I can't put down. I found some LED's last night and I thought it was interesting that one light can...

Got it! You learn something new every day. I should be starting my first grow in a couple of weeks and I get more excited about it all the time. I would have done this a long time ago if I had known there was so much support out there! No more hustling up mj or supporting the cartels for me...

Thanks Be0wulf! So to clarify even further, you are talking about Kelvin ranges and not Lumens, is that correct? The lower 2700K being more in the red spectrum and the 6500K being more in the blue spectrum. Also, do these ranges correspond to the bulbs wattage in any way or is it just the type...

Thanks for the info crashnfool!! Sounds like a good idea. I'm probably going to add at least a couple of more lights. I agree that you probably can't have too many cfl's. :thumb Peace

How many cfl's do I need to grow 5 or 6 plants? I currently have two lights with reflectors. • 350 watt duel spectrum @ 4200 lumens for flowering • 300 watt duel spectrum @ 3400 lumens for veg My grow space is still being setup but will measure about 4 * 3 * 7 with Mylar Can I use...

Thanks bro! This is my first grow and I really don't want to F it up! I'm trying to cover everything and this forum is going to be a real life saver, I can tell already! Take care my friend! I'm sure I'll have more questions to come and I'll try to post some pics later.

Thanks for the tips. Going to give it a shot but I plan on setting everything up and getting some data on temps, etc before I start my grow. Peace!!

Sounds like a good idea! I have decided to get a small AC to cool my room after I insulate. I'll do some more research on keeping water temps down. Also think I'll monitor my room for a week or with with everything going to get some working temps before I start my grow. Thanks!
