    NEW Extreme Memberships

    I'd definitely consider it if y'all (ya'll?) enabled Tapatalk (iPad forum browsing client).

    First frost is coming. We're all doomed.

    They made it! It didn't get below 39. But the hotter varieties looked like they were parched this morning.

    First frost is coming. We're all doomed.

    Yeah, this was a good thread. Stupid server. Anyways, I'm strongly considering administering Bonide systemic granules to the ones I want to bring inside, and trimming them down a bit so as to (1) allow them to adjust to their new habitat and (2) make sure that they don't begin fruiting for a...

    Bought this before hearing about their terrible reputation. Is this a bhut? http://i.imgur.com/jaZuPl.jpg

    indoor New grow tent

    A 4ft x 8ft grow tent with all of those extra vents? Sounds great if you have the room for it. Nice to hear that it has solid zippers for a cheapie tent. Thanks - I kind of have room for it in my 500 SF apartment :).

    indoor New grow tent

    It's true. I joined this website, posted for a couple months, and FINALLY snuck in my plug (for which I get 5 cents a click through), and you had to go and ruin it! My kids are going to starve next week; I hope you're happy. Seriously, I think the ref id is intended to identify the...

    indoor New grow tent

    Thanks! The Super Blue looks fantastic, but I think I'll need to settle for right now; I've been dumping money on my gardening hobby left and right :). My first priority will be working out a proper ventilation system; it's a hothouse in there right now. I have a 240 CFM fan going through the...

    indoor New grow tent

    1000w. It's got a hortilux super HPS in it right now, but I'm considering switching to MH since my citrus is looking a little weepy. I'll be bulking up on peppers pretty soon, still germinating right now though.

    indoor New grow tent

    Just set this up after ordering it from Amazon. While I don't think the markdown is quite as spectacular as it looks—a brief search shows the same price everywhere, and there's no reviews—I rolled the dice and was pleased with the results. Seems well constructed, much more so than other...

    First frost is coming. We're all doomed.

    So, first frost is rapidly approaching in Montana. My BJ plant just started flowering, and my habs set peppers about 10 days ago. My options would appear to be (1) move them indoors and quarantine them to be moved under my HID light; or (2) slaughter them and start anew. I guess (3) I could...

    Aji Chombo

    Looking good, man. What exactly is an aji chambo? Sweet pepper crossed with a chile?

    I'd be curious to read more about teas; happen to have any links?

    Fox Farms Grow Big

    I thought about it, but I felt like the trio was formulated for...err...not vegetables. Am I wrong?

    Fox Farms Grow Big

    Anyone ever used this for starting peppers? There was a sale, so I picked up a gallon. I also have some chile focus lying around, but I can save it for fruiting if that's wiser.

    MH, HPS, or CFL?

    The heat isn't as much as a problem as it would otherwise be (though I'm sure it will still present some issues). I'll post pictures when I get the chance, but my little grow area is below the apex of the roof, so the ceilings are probably around 14' high (that may be a slight exaggeration, but...

    MH, HPS, or CFL?

    Thanks for all the advice guys! Alas, impulse buying took over once again: I purchased a 1000w HPS/MH system :). It's going to go in my 1 bedroom, 500 SF apartment. I am a fool, but a happy one. So, I've read that for chiles, MH or HPS can be used interchangably. Does this mean I'd be wiser to...

    MH, HPS, or CFL?

    That seems to be the consensus per what little research I've done, but I've seen quite a few people—albeit a minority—insist that newer CFLs, e.g. the 125w ones, or just a lot of the 42w, are superior for limited spaces because they can be arranged around the plants more carefully without...

    MH, HPS, or CFL?

    Thoughts? I'm considering getting an HID light—perhaps 2—so another option would be 1 400w HPS & 1 400w MH. That would give me a better spectrum. I'm also considering growing some dwarf citrus trees inside. It's tough to find info that isn't about growing weed :).

    seeds Germinating experiment: cups vs bags

    Just picked some up, and wanted to say thanks for the idea. A thought: for those that go the hydro way, I bet you could save a step by placing a seed in rockwool, wetting it down, and placing it in one of the little cups. Seems like it would retain the moisture a lot better.
