Looks like it's a good product that's reusable. I never seen these before.

I've noticed what some growers use for drainage. Some of it is pretty cleaver so I thought I'd share mine. I'm new at growing cannabis but I have used this system for growing other things so that they get proper drainage. The best thing is that it's cheap, reusable and you don't have to make anything. The green ring is sold at the Dollar Store where it now sells for $1.25. It's a firm styrofoam ring that you place under your pot that allows drainage and air to flow. The next thing is a Hyper tough automotive 7-quart drain pan that sells for $2.97 at Wal-Mart. This pan you place your green ring in and your pot on top of the ring. Using both together your pot can drain and the pan catches the run off. Once your pot has completely drained just dump off the drainage. No water in your grow tent. Maybe some of you can post what you use for some newbies like myself. Have a great day

What is the time for your lighting during flowering for your girls in grow tents. I hear 12/12 or 18/6. I want to be sure my girls get enough sleep time. I can't wait until warmer weather so we don't have to worry about it. I'm seeing all of the pics posted very nice in all the stages of growth.

Thanks for all the responses. I see that it's a trial and error kinda thing. To Texasbob I'm using Koscheal 2000W led grow lights. So far so good with this brand. I like the fact it has a built in fan which it doesn't get hot at all and a switch for veg and flower. I 'm using Foxfarm Bushdoctor Coco Loco in 7 gallon pots right now since It's winter here.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this website and have read many of your posts. I've also seen your pics of your girls and I know I'm in the right spot for my questions. I have grown twice and I know I have a lot to learn. My question is what's the best fertilizer to use on my girls. I'm aware that different fertilizers are used at different stages of growth. The girls according to my calendar should be ready to harvest but they are not. They seem to be in slow motion. I'm using a fertilizer but my guess it's just not the right one. Any and all answers is greatly appreciated. Thank you all
