What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

I would think.... in today’s “aware” society, the VOC levels in any indoor paints are low enough that a day or so would be fine. I’ve painted indoors for 40 years and slept in that room usually the next night... never had a problem ...YET. in case: VOC = volatile organic compounds

Got a bit of an odd ball question. I'll doing some painting in the room that my closet grow in it. I've already got my wooden shelf sanded down and a fresh coat of semi-gloss white on it. She looks good. I'm gonna re-prime the closet with some mold resistant primer and some fresh flat white, and I've got some trim to do around the room as well. Which brings me to my topic. Did this all out in the shop, because of the sanding and tools.

My question is how long can I expect to keep my plants out of my grow closet? I'll be leaving heat and fans on during and after painting. It's all beauty tone interior latex, nothing fancy, all water friendly stuff. I figure a couple days wouldn't hurt? I've done lots of rooms and stuff before and I figure it takes a couple days for the odor to wear off, I figure if it no longer bugs my nose, it shouldn't bug the plants? I've only got some small vegging plants and seedlings at the moment, nothing flowering.

I’ve learned that lesson when there were 6 using 7 gallon bags. You’re absolutely right and it’s not like anyone is saving a load of money on nutes as that’s maybe 1/2 the cost difference But the convenience of using only water is ...... stressless

kind soil is fantastic, a bit pricey for me but the stuff is great

[Farmall]

If you need to purchase soil... look at Nature’s Living Soil on Amazon or Kind Soil.com. They are prepared and ready to mix with your coco media....READ the instructions carefully, I found them a tad confusing but I use nothing but these days

adrimal yes you need shade that is way to hot for young plants if those are fabric pots sure you could bury them but need shade for intense sun.

[adrimal]

outside grow. pots 21×18. big enough? hot dry area . should I burry pots? will shade cloth be needed on 120 degree days. my well water at 7..4 should I take it to low 6. thanks Admiral at wahooscott44@gmail.com

Well the amounts they post are always in a sea of green. So they have alot of plants in the amount of space. I can say that over 1000g can be done in a 4x4. I exceed that sometimes but I use a 1000watt hps/mh and another 424 actual watts at the end of flower. But I grow far more plants than probably anyone here. But that is in cbd plants. 600 grams per 4x4 is possible for everyone. Just takes practice and loving and treating your plants like a pet.

I’m asking mainly in reference.. because the journal I may post next.. the lighting is 1200w led with dwc hydroponics.. single topping with lst.. in a 4.5/4.5 Mylar (grow tent replica) oscillating fan.. fox farm nutes and hydro guard.. strain Black berry kush and 1-95 with bbk suppose to be around 450 and i95 suppose to be up to 400... I also have some amnisia white rhino and blue dream and thc bomb 450,350, 500 550 respectively I have caramelicious too but can’t find quantity info.. on that one.. all thc level around the 20-25 range I know these are all under perfect conditions I’m just trying to figure out.. my next step..
Kinda a copy cat of nebulas.. I get a lot of starting ideas from this forum.. I’ve been a farmer for a bit now

[FunkyButtLovin]

In the article the tent is 4'x4' and just over a m2 but the grow could have been done in a 3'x3' which is smaller than 1 m2. The total harvest was 646 grams so the breeders estimates are not out of line but a beginner in soil with mediocre lighting is generally not going to come close. That was a high performance hydro grow by an experienced grower.

Thank you oldjarhead100 that’s a great answer and pretty much what I though.. but when I was reading nebulas example it confused me a bit because I thought her grow was near perfect

[Farmall]

Although a nightshade plant, it does not grow like a tomato which would put out roots

[oldjarhead100]

No it wont I did a fluxing last summer and had all of the side branches tied down no roots grew on them ,now if you covered them with soil maybe

[oldjarhead100]

the estimates that breeders give are under perfect conditions, if you can get 350 from one plant with a 600w light .I would say you had a very very successful grow .

every time you stress a plant it hurts yield

[Daskahn]

NebulaHaze Here’s my question.. in your example grow(wonder women under a 600w mh/hps) you got 351g off of one plant.. and I thought that was wonderful and more then I could ever hope for.. but I looked on seedsman and they claim the average weight could be between 450-550 m2 I believe do you think they are exaggerating or do you think something could have been done differently?
