SHAZAM! Thank you! My trip to the dump just got a whole lot better!
Yep, that was an easy fix. Just took some time to swab out the accumulated gunk in all my batteries. A very productive Saturday.
Hardly a grow guru, but here's my 2x4x5'8" setup shoehorned in a corner of the garage. I put it on a 29" high table for easy pruning/maintenance/crap stowage.
Can comfortably grow four 3 gal pots or three 5-gal, could likely shoehorn in 100+ single bud plants using Sea of Green.
It's not that hard to set up. Light is the big cost - mine is a refurb'd 250W LED from a client - gives me about 650PPFD with a red boost for blooming. Tent cost $175. Air circ comes from a $30 dual window-mount fan from THD, and a small $15 clip unit to exhaust air out the vent. Temp inside seems to run about 10 degrees above the garage - HPS/MH will run a lot hotter. Will see what happens when the snow flies - got a backup plan for supplemental heat.
Feeding Lucas Formula through blumats (cost around $50 for six carrots, quick releases, etc) fed by gravity from a five gal bucket. Nute/PH balance runs less than $25 for one cycle. pH meter and calibrating stuff cost about $75 but worth every fuckin penny..

Awesome, thanks guys. Ive read some threads on it but always appreciate the input.
Nice set up TBS.
Bromontana-- Beerdrinker also had a good post a page or two back in response to my startup question.
Set this up for a buddy. 2x4 tent like TBS. Air cooled 600w digital (50%,75%,100% settings) Good personal set up.

Anyone in Denver/CO got the hook up on lights? They would need to be cheaper than this, delivered. I could care less about the shit timer, but the pkg would need to include both bulbs and hangers. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006K5AJOG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_sfl_titl e_2&smid=A2WRS4X4C0GMOQ
Dunno - shit happens. Last week a grower acquaintance in Marin County, CA had his neighbors call Child Protective Services on him and his wife; rippers come take a large swath of product; and then the neighbors called the cops. His first criminal hearing is in 2 weeks....
Added in the bloombastic and upped the bloom to 12ml today.

Looking nice BeerDrinker.
That CPS shit makes me rethink about sticking within state law.
Would that 1000w hps be cool for 4 plants? How big of a tent would I need?
1k for 4 plants should be fine. Big hood. 4x4 or 5x5.
CanAduh bringing the full on dum - apparently millions of accumulated deaths and billions if not Trillions spent in non war w/tobacco pales in comparison to the devastation wrought by the devils lettuce.
I am no math wiz, but I believe infinitely means it is a LOT WORSE - bake with caution.

What is a good sight to read to identify when they are ready to cut? Also, drying\curing methods need to be researched. (Open to advice to, but happy to be pointed in the right direction and reading.
Thanks in advance,

PS: I love Oregon!
Trich heads will become cloudy, and start to amber.

50% ambers are what to shoot for, but it is strain specific.

Hard to give up on that cash cow of the past 40 yrs, shaking people down for personal consumption mj - fuckn sad

“At a time when a growing majority of Americans support legalizing marijuana, it’s amazing that police are still putting more people in handcuffs for this. There’s just no good reason that so much police time and taxpayer money is spent punishing people for marijuana when so many murders, rapes and robberies go unsolved.”
Imagine, cops going out and solving murders and such -
Colorado hotels are updating their signage. I still haven't seen the sign at the airport that says you can't take it with you. I bet that one is a collectors item.

Although I mostly indulge in the tax free variety, it has been cool to visit retail stores and get a sampler of diverse strains. The favorite these last couple summers has been Kosher Kush from High Country Healing in Citythorne. Solid.
Go 5x5 or 6x6 with a digi ballast, 5x5' with 1k conventional buzzbox. A decent 6" carbon filter should easily remove all traces of dank for at least a couple flower cycles.
Veg your 4 typical indicas to about 18" and hardened off to full flowering light before you switch to 12/12. They'll typically double in height and width in the next 20-25 days as they start setting buds at every node. Plan to pot up to final size of about 3 gal of coco in a week or two after the flip.
Try for an even canopy, as your light only has a 18-21" "depth of field". Too close, and you'll "light burn" and kill tops, too far, and the node will only produce larf or popcorn. With a good yielding strain, you should be able to pull an L every flowering cycle.
