Hey guested.    You have quite a challenge ahead, and I am very interested in that :)   First thing I want to say is that "life will find a way". In the simplest terms, if you give the plants light, water, warmth and food they will grow. If you can give the plants a reasonable environment, they...

Hey Charlie.   Indoors without a light ? Not sure if that was what you were asking... Perhaps you were asking how well it would work without light compared to using artificial lights ??   Without artificial lights I would say don't bother unless you have a sun room or porch that gets a whole...

While I understand that making money to support the web sit is important...... allowing adds (Comcast) that completely overtake the site and interfere with my efforts to reply or post is very disconcerting.   If this continues I will move on.  I spent too much time scrolling and adjusting the...

Personally I'm a little skeptical about the inexpensive (or expensive) LED grow lights for peppers.  I am not saying that they do not perform.  I have absolutely ZERO data that supports my skepticism. The data that I don't have is...... Do LED's work to grow PEPPERS ?   Look to the YouTube...

This post could be placed in a "Grow Log" (glog)...  That is if you keep us posted as to the progress of your peppers.   Beside that, what a beautiful place to live !  I wish that I could stand on my patio and see what you see  :party: !!   I've looked up the average weather in Sarajevo before...

Did you checked the pH of your system when your had the plants in the Dutch Bucket system ?   Can you explain what you mean when you say you didn't rinse the Perlite and the soil was too sandy ? Why do you think that ? Seriously not trying to be assy... I am truly interested.    So you took them...

First I have a suggestion.... when you take pictures of your plants for posting it's a good idea to take the pictures with your plants under "white" light.  Put them under CFL or something and turn off the LED's. Pull them out of the tent if you have to. The reason is that the it is difficult to...

Peppers like it hot, but that's not to say they won't grow in cooler temps. Daytime temps in the 70's should be good enough... it's the night time temps that you have to watch out for. Down to the 50's up here in the North this time of year and the peppers are still doing OK. Not great, but OK. ...

Here in Minnesota we get the Siberia weather for about two months a year. Not something to rely on though :)   Discovered today that the LEC 315 comes in a "remote" version... Ballast is external.  Might look at that.   Then there is LED.  Not sure if I trust the LED... unless I spend a grand on...

Thanks stickman.  So then if I poop in the garden it should reach an equilibrium :party:   Kidding of course.    I have seen soil amendments that have active microbiology. Maybe I should consider adding some of that to the next garden expansion.  I don't have a lot of room to be able compost...

I currently have a HydroFarm Phantom CMh 315 watt fixture inside of a 4x4x6ft7in Gorilla grow tent (lite version). I have the ballast for this fixture mounted outside of the tent. The ballast gets damn HOT. I've added a fan just to cool the ballast !   The Sun Systems LEC 315 has the ballast...

Lot of go-getters on this post.  Not sure that I am worthy (jk)   I used to ride off-road when I was younger. Favorite activity was rock hopping and stump jumping. Knees gave some trouble a few years ago so now we just hike and canoe.   My wife and I backpack on the Superior Hiking Trail in...

I've had a few pairs over the years. I currently have Sennheiser HDR-165 wireless.  I like the full over the ear soft cups.  I love these :)   Jeff

Just a quick question.  I bought some Kellogg Farms raised bed mix this spring for the small outdoor garden. It has all of the ingredients that good garden mix should have, but I think it was totally lifeless out of the bag.   The garden needed a few doses of chemical ferts over the summer to...

Thanks all.    Biggy... I have 400+ CFM available. I can suck the air out of the tent plenty fast (maybe a few small animals too). The problem is that the air coming back in to the tent to replace the removed air is at a very low humidity. And now that the house A/C is off, that refresh air is...

TAG>>  New Indoor Grower   Greeting All. My question is about temp and humidity, and should I spent a lot of time and effort controlling these two factors.   Basics>> Currently three plants in 3 Gal cloth pots... Ghost, and two Tasmanian Habanero.  Have 9 more pants planned.   VIPARSPECTRA 700...

Are you growing outdoors ?  Has the weather been normal this year ?  What soil are you using ?   Many questions.............   I have an apple tree that would normally produce bags and bags of apples.... this years I literally have TWO apples on the tree.  Warm spring and late cold weather...

Keep your grow simple... stick with the GH nutes and all will be super fine :)   Maybe you could start a separate grow to test your tea ??  I'm all for experimentation, but if you do deviate from the "norm".... expect to have results that are not so................good.   Jeff    

Yes so then..... I am interested in the "taking some of the diseased leaves....."   This has a foundation. I agree that if your could cultivate the intrusive bacteria and find a way to mitigate its influence.... you could have a winner !   But when you say "I mix a few thing in there..."  well...

Any windbreak should be fine. You don't have to stop the wind... just diffuse it.   Maybe a short fence of two or three feet in height on one or two sides of the garden might work.  Here in the Great White North ( lots of snow ) we use fencing to reduce the wind blown snow drifts. The snow and...
