ive 'peerblock' that kicks in once ive an interwebs connection, it blocks MILLIONS of known ip be it gov, college or even ur ISP, check it out ive never been more pleased one downside is it works so well alot of sites wont give u access lol
isent peer block just p2p? i,e for your torrent client/? the problem with that is sumtimes its blocks a entire range and not every host in that range is a bad IP. .. IS WHAT IT IS, i dont encode or upload anymore so its not needed,

Yeah, just blocks known flagged machines but u can easily change the parameters to allow certain sites you frequent. N I'd recommend anyone to download it just to see how much shite actually tracks us.

Once ur not constantly at it I'd suggest a free vpn (allows a few gb of traffic a week or something alongbthose lines)...but as u stayed it's so fucking slow

Hey all.. Any thoughts on letting the bins go dry on like the GWE water farm system? Like you would in soil, etc it makes sense to treat it the same as other mediums, just not sure.

Why would you want to let your medium/pots dry out?

Salt build up, lockout and massive PH drops anybody?

their are some sweet free VPNs that would be better suited over the proxy as a proxy will only mask your browsers traffic so say if ur downloading some movies or something like that all the traffic will be seen so VPN is the way to go if ur planning on cloaking ur whole home system.
A linux pc with a decent Atheros WiFi card capable of packet injection (£25).
Backtrack 3 installed into linux.
Piggyback any WiFi signal within range you like.

in gunna get another one for the flower tent the yanks have proved that blue light at the end increases resin and resin = lemony goodness.....

cause there self ballasted the ballast is in the bulb tube my 400w puts out the same heat as a 600 or a little less....

you can do a whole grow using blue spec with only minor sacrifices to yield, in fact that's all they used in the usa for years.....

at 15 a light can make cash cropping cheap as chips.....

i cant see using a b;ue all the way thru will giveu just as good yeilds as a red? or even dual spec, understandably some blue is always good but for flower they say red spec pref for a reason no?

One would say for the same reason you would / do in soil. Plants get lazy when life is just too perfect and nature is not perfect. It is used across many commercial crops to promote bigger fruit, more aggressive flowering.

So the question sort of remains

You wouldn't in soil, or any medium for that matter. Like I said......salt build up, lockout and massive PH swings.

"Plants get lazy when life is just too perfect" - Fuck knows what you mean by this, when life is perfect for plants (hydro) they grow bigger and stronger, faster.

Forced drought promotes yield? - I'm afraid you'll have to sling up some sound corroberating evidence for that one mate, I'm calling bullshit.

Yea that is my thinking, it is done throughout food growing, and in soil so retic with dwc sort of makes sense to give em 24 to 36 hours I would guess -

Really you never would in soil? Wow I am calling a bit of a new Gardner you may be.... If you want evidence in soil just ask any grower that has long term soil experience - or fekin google it
