They suck the moisture out of the soil and are a very poor choice for growing cannabis.

Pros easy to get nice and weighty to stand up cons can be pricey in bigger sizes and a pain in the rear on some transplants.

My tent is 32"x32"x63". I've only ever done one plant at a time. This time I am attempting to share the tent with a hydroponic grow in a 5-gallon bucket. I normally grow soil in a 5-gallon smart pot. Should I use a 3-gallon instead? Last grow the 1 hydro filled the tent.

Indoor or outdoor question I’m thinking of starting a new autoflower grow. My question is: can you do indoor / outdoor / indoor for the plant without stressing it out? My current tent is in use, but I think it might be free in 6-8 weeks. Or should I just keep it outdoors completely?

Temperature setup I have blue dream auto MSNL seedlings that are in their first vigorous growth week. I have kept the temp at 72 during the day, 69 at night with a average humidity of 60 , it is usually 55% during the day and 65% at night. Should I keep these temperatures going into veg stage?

Incredibly low CO2 levels After adding an A/C to my tent I began using bottled CO2 like never before. 20lbs in 5 days. Without adding, my CO2 is at 4 ppm. Yes, four parts per million in the dark. How can this be possible if the air in my house sits at 400ppm? I read that photosynthesis stops below 200ppm

Moving plants It's winter here so have an indoor grow going. I'm wondering though, we're having beautiful days, is it worth dragging the girls outside through the day? Is it worth the effort? Anyone else muck around that much?

4x4 16 Plant Veg Time and Training Hello guys, I am planning on flowering these 16 ladies in my 4x4, but I am unsure of how long to veg and what training to utilize for maximum yield. I was thinking 3-4 weeks? Or maybe longer? Is topping in such a tight space a good idea? If yes then at what time? Thanks!

Soundproof grow area I made a countertop tent out of mylar and 2x2s. Any tips on what I can hang on the front to dampen the sound of fans and filters? Foam didn't do much so I broke it into smaller pieces to block off the noisy fans and pumps individually. I'd like to isolate the whole thing ideally.
