    Electricity 101

    I have it all installed with transformer and proper cable and timer and relay to switch polarity. When you switch polarity on a dc motor it simply rotates the other way. I only wanted to figure out how they calculate actual draw of 100w 24v dc from 220v AC. I also don't have much time on my hand...

    Grow crashing, please help. 2nd year grower

    I think it has to do with the root zone. Calcium deficiency happens on new leaves and not old leaves since it is highly immobile. It could be nutrient imbalance or high salinity in the soil overwatering causing roots to drown etc... Talking about heat stress yes it can cause many problems and is...

    The mites are gone and i still have 3 weeks of vegging. I am considering applying avid as a preventative just before i flip them. I think since it is non systemic and has a short half life it would not go into the flowers. I am worried that mites attack during flowering. I really dont want that...

    Sorry to go back to the thread topic, i just want to say that i think that stray cats are a carrier of mites as well as other animals like birds. I found a cat had made its way into my garden a month or so ago and now i saw the mites with a population that seems like a month old. Last time i...

    I suspect it is the soap that is killing them. I tried alcohol and it did nothing. I tried h2o2 worked great on turning my leaves to golden color while keeping the mites alive. I once tried drowning a plant for hours then put it back up to dry i had to rub my eyes but yes those fukers were...

    Hello MP family. I got my hands on a fert that is the same composition as Avid miticide. I tried it and noticed that it has sort of a benzene like smell to it. I also would like to ask if anyone has used it before? I will not be using it in flowering. I used it 3 days ago and i was planning to...
