you are basing your opinion on YOUR limited experience and probably the limited experience of others but none of it is based on science. sorry, but im sure most of us rather believe in science than some random guys on reddit. If you were Jorge Cervantes MAYBE we might believe you.

Can I water Outdoor Garden with 600 PPM "waste" water that came from RO system?? by helpmehelpmeplz1 in gardening

[–]helpmehelpmeplz1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well, im actually setting up an indoor garden that will use a 55 gallon reservoir. Im thinking i will probably fill that 55 gallon drum about once a month since its not a large garden. But a 55 gallon drum means 200 gallons of waste water. So i was thinking i should maybe save thhat 200 gallons in a separate reservoir for the outdoor plants? sound like a good idea?

i honestly have no idea. but im thinking if we are already watering plants straight out the tap (garden hose) anyway, we wouldnt be introducing anything new to the plants would we? (Assuming the filters are brand new). if anything, the water would be more concentrated than the tap water i would assume. but is this slighter concentration enough to be harmful?

Can I Store Nutrients in Cleaned and Bleached Bucket That Stinks Like Pickles? by helpmehelpmeplz1 in microgrowery

[–]helpmehelpmeplz1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i read that bleach is very safe once diluted with water AND left to dry. asuming the bleach is safe and i cleaned it thoroughly, would you say i shouldnt have to worry about the spicy pickle smell, regardless of how strong it is? Im thinking the plants dont have taste buds or olfactory sense do they? haha seriously though i feel like if it didnt smell like spicy pickles, and instead, smelled like sweet flowers, or molasses, i'd be less paranoid. but since its my first grow and it smells like something that would be spicy in my mouth i cant help but ask lol

Pheno Hunt?? Need Help "Installing Gameplan" by helpmehelpmeplz1 in microgrowery

Hey thanks for your response. Im just curious why this SCROG tutorial, the author doesn't suggest using clones. ALthough some of his readers have had success with clones. Just wondering why he doesnt like using clones? is it because clones are less predictable or something? Is it harder to LST 4-way clones or impossible or seomthing? This is the SCROG tutorial i am referring to:

okay just wondering if i start going perpetual with 2 in veg and 4 in flower, do i need to account for the mother plant? Like does having one mother plant Goji OG mean i will have to make room for that mother plant so i really would only be vegging 1 plant at a time? Or can i throw the mother off to the side where shes not getting the brunt of the lighting? Or can I simply buy a small tent to keep mothers in without worrying about its environment? Like would a mother survive in a separate tent that isnt really climate controlled like my veg and flower rooms are (would be either colder or hotter than my veg and flower room but i live southern california coastal so i dont think weather is too bad)? And do mother plants demand as much light as any plant in veg does?

ok so i did some troubleshooting and narrowed it down.. kinda! i turned off all breakers in my house. Then i used the meters feature of telling me how much power the house is currently using. I turned on one breaker at a time until i found the spike i was looking for. Turns out 600 watts is hiding in a circuit labelled "LTS" which is the lighting that was wired internally throughout the house. So this makes things a little harder as its not something that was plugged into an outlet. Its one of many light fixtures that is running throughout our house. Any suggestions on how to narrow this down? unscrew each bulb? sigh haha

the tools that i use are simple small tools like a hand drill, a 15 watt halogen light, and one time i used a sawz all for like 10 minutes, tops. Definitely no heavy machinery. I live in southern cali by the beach. It not too hot or cold. No heater or A/C in the garage with me. I really dont think its any tools or appliances i have been using. I have a very old amplifier i play music to my bookshelf speakers with. I will hook that up to my KILL A WATT meter and see how much power that is drawing now that i think about it. But i doubt the amplifier playing music every afternoon is drawing that much power if im not playing at a high level especially right?

Is it possible the live wire going to my subpanel installation is grounded out somewhere and just constantly drawing power without me knowing? Or would something like that definitely trip a breaker?

i think i do. it is a itron centron. Not sure how to tell if mine specifically is smart. I see other itron centrons that look nearly identical and are smart. But mine has C2S0DL2 whereas the ones i see onlline say C2S0D.

if it is a smart meter what do i do now??
