Ttystikk's vertical goodness

[OneHitDone]

I understand not wanting to gamble on a crop. I know it takes a lot to understand a lot of what I'm doing. And that's okay. I don't expect people to make changes over night. Just like growing plants, it's a process and it takes time and effort, from both me and you. I do my best to provide accurate information, but again, this is not a commercial enterprise. I don't have a lot of money to put into it and I'm not here to make money off this, so it's not easy and it doesn't go quickly.

If your the Cat running the Salt site. FloraNova supposedly has Protien Hydrolysate and maybe some other shit in it I don't see listed in your formula.
It is definitely not a "clear" mineral mix.

Believe me I'm excited to hopefully be able to drop this 800$ price tag for two runs. I'm excited to see it honestly

@ttystikk this is where I think you will find coco performance trailing behind RDWC is in the young stages. Trying to get them off and running from clone.
Hydro just delivers in that aspect

Do you know what 'hydro' even means? What do you feed them in coco, if not 'hydro'-ponic nutrients?

I guess we'll see; I'm not changing much else for the first few runs.

Not at all I'm getting 2 128 site ez cloners like I had at work and gonna pump out monsters within 15 days of being cut they go right into the coco no issues with a full root balls. I've shown @ttystikk what I can do he trusts me he's seen it all in person cuz he actually took interest in what i was doing and is the one who got me thinking about how much we can really do with my grow system and using his style of growing and lighting. I'm gonna be devoting time over there to put down some true monsters hit some 2gpw numbers on a large scale and with how many people he knows and respect his way and what he does maybe it'll open some people's eyes to some of the young dudes in the game in only 27 but been doing it on and off 10 years my dad taught horticulture and botany along with biology and has a green thumb out this world. I know there are a lot of claims and loud mouths out there who can't back up their talk but I know what's about to happen at his house and it's gonna be beautiful

Right. But in the end I'll have an education on the subject, and that's worth all the effort to me.

But, to give you an honest remark on Rhizotonic and Boost, the short answer to when I'll have a replacement for them is I have no idea. I know they are hormone blends. I also know, for the most part, what hormones are in them. So, I could go so far as suggest comparable replacements but not actually an identical product.

Now, Cannazym, on the other hand, is a an enzyme product. The same enzymes that are used to clean up pond algae and shit like that. Look up Pondcare Pond-Zyme or any other pond enzyme.

I do not use boost so don't worry about it believe me I've met the CEO and president of canna on 4/20 and they said it's an additive that can do good but over all is un-needed in the grow but rhizotonic is my favorite shit in the world straight up lol

On another note rhizotonic is the most expensive of all their product lol but I can testify that shit is amazing

wow $800, I spend about $3 a grow

 

[Afgan King]

Oh I'm sure you do believe me I'll figure out a way to get rid of the price tag and it's not that much a single run depends how big plants and everything else is

 

[ttystikk]

'Bout a pound, lol

We'll see what lessons can be learned. I'm sure I'll learn plenty, which to me is the best part.

Such is my preferred coin.

I'm not so interested in the salt part, but I am interested in seeing the plants produced from the whole setup. Personally I like the SIP's with living organic soil, but to each their own.

 

[ttystikk]

Up til now, that's been my bill too. On the other hand, if yields increase by only ten percent it's paid for itself.

I've been thinking about it and there's exactly no reason at all why it couldn't be very compatible with what I'm doing.

What do you feed them in coco, if not 'hydro'-ponic nutrients?

So you're telling me that hand watering hydroponic nutrients into coco is better than having it feed automatically and recirculate? Drain to waste is cheaper? Top feeding with a wand is better?

If you're switching strains, switching nutrients, and switching lights, and switching medium - it's honestly hard to pinpoint what is better than the other. It will take a bloom cycle, or two.
I'm still tuned in to watch, though. Not sure what I'm watching anymore but I'm watching

I had to laugh at this. Reminded me of this Nigerian guy I used to work with. Were having some telemetry issues with some electric/hydraulic tools and instead of isolating 1 thing he wanted to rip the whole string apart every time. I told him if he did that again his head was going to meet my sledge hammer . Carry on

 

[Vnsmkr]

Go big or go home eh

 

[WestDenverPioneer]

U saying it needs to be dialed in after 5 years of using it shows its not a simple system especially how he does with multiple closed looped rdwc going at same time all in different life cycles all needing diff nutes and etc.

Well that's what separates some of us from the others. With over 23 years of hydroponic experience, to me, it just needs to be dialed in. To others, it needs to be scrapped and verboten.

my dad taught horticulture and botany along with biology and has a green thumb out this world.

OK. Now I got it. All your posts make sense now.

Uh yeah, like 'drop in fit'; the complete water system is already in place, I could recirculate fresh water under SIPS tubs full of whatever I like just as I do RDWC now! This would certainly work to aerate things at the very least. It would also eliminate the water wand.
