I've changed res once during flower this cycle and it's just about over, I do use a good water conditioner though, Flying Skull z7.

I have a nice r/o system and an easy way to pump the water in an out so I don't really mind that!

That small amount of water cool enough would be my guess. My 1/2 horse will cool 55 gallons down to 39 degrees.
70 gallons and a water pump that runs 24/7 I can only get down to about 64 degrees F with the 1/10th horse.

Dynagro. Foliage pro from start to finish, bloom and taper off foliage pro, mag-pro and protekt.
I toss in a mild bloom booster every now and then. The Z7 and basically that's it.

It's winter and you are about 100% on the money... Another reason I'm switching to hydro is bc I got hurt at work and have trouble watering my plants. Easier to change res once week than breaking my back watering everyday. But spot on! Lol

Just one solar storm 440w for two Oxygen-potsystem on the analog timer!

Going to be flooding three times a day during veg and 4 in flower... Haven't decided on nutrients... Floral series... Dyna gro... Or Lucas formula.... So much research lol,

Dude hydro is for dudes who wanna sit and stare at their plants all day because they can't get no *****. They ain't gotta life outside their being a rebel growing a little weed. Once the thrill of talking about is gone and you gotta PH that crap daily you'll be like. OMFG! This is all assuming your not scared of ***** and have a life. Just saying. bongsmilie

You are seriously confused and don't have a fucking clue,
You failed to see my posting about dosers.
I'm pretty sure I have a life outside sitting staring at my plants, my daily job interferes with that.

dbkick... Ive been doing a lot of research on dosers.... Any recommendations on an affordable one... or one that can even run on a 10 gallon res? I think the autopilot one is nice but the way it throws ph into the res might not work for such a small reservoir?

I just upped to a 20 gallon res.... Maybe a doser is in my future.

There are some things I just gotta do myself and that's one of them. I know nothing of them other than they exist. saw a milwaukee ph doser on craigs the other day.
