Walker I use secondaries. :p HBT Supporter Joined Sep 8, 2005 Messages 10,982 Reaction score 122 Location Cary Sep 27, 2005 #2 for non-pellet forms (plugs and flowers), I think you need to use something like 15% to 20% more than you would with pellets. The pellets pack more punch because they are ground up hops (hence, more surface area.) -walker
