Ok Al you said you use Canna ferts. Well I dicided to go with that, and so I went to their Website.....SO MUcH To ChOOSe FroM! Now for a basic op not a simple/complicated as yours is which ones do you recomend.
I may have missunderstood the info on they site, but it seem to be three to four types of ferts. One was for soil but out of the three for hydroponics which do I choose?
All I know on the bad looking plant it looks like the plant has no new foliage comeing out. The top is a solid node with tangled leaves around it then the next three sets of leaves are very tiny(size of little finger's nail). Thats all I can say about that until I get pics.
Feed the Panda, thanks

Posting pics of your grow is questionable from beginning to end; it is a calculated risk. If you were ever busted, such pix could be used against you in court. However, if you need help with your grow, it's hard to get any competent assistance without pix.
As long as there's no way to identify you or the grow location from the pix, it's generally OK.

Depends on the media you are using. There's a Canna product for regular media called Substra and another for coco coir media.
hey al,
Longtime fan of all you've shared with us, thanks alot. My question is: i hade a bad breakout out of pythium in my aerocloner, i cleaned the resv. with 35% h202 at a high dose of 25ml/l (with out the clones in) and cleaned the ""goo" off the stems. Can i use the clones that were in the cloner or do i need to make new clones? I also use the h202 for pathogen control, i may have missed a dose... by the way, i used your thread to start a grow with your setup in mind, but i do 6 plants every 5 day off ebb and flow, works pretty well for me just devides the work up, instead of 24 plants every 2 weeks, its more my style...less work a day lol...thanks so much for your time.

The tips of the stems will probably be rotted. Cut off the rotted material and try again with the cloner having been sterilised as you described.
Sounds good to me

New cameras will add in extra data (like the ID tags in an mp3) stuff like focal position, camera model & serial number, (which can be back tracked to you if you registered the cam or paid for with a CC), date, etc. Find a program that removes them. RIU does remove them by default from what I've checked, but I prefer to do it myself.
(I'm on a Mac so my program would probably be useless to you)
Hey Al, that 'hated manicuring task' comment. Before I ever had a harvest I thought, eh, its a labor of love. Now that I have a couple under my belt, glad I only grow a couple plants at a time!
Its kinda like pancakes. When you start, you'll all excited and by the end you hate 'em.

All digital cameras include EXIF data with the image. I'm sure there's dedicated software around for stripping EXIF data, but the easiest way to remove it is to load the img into an editor like Photoshop and save the img. The 'save for web' function in Ps 7.0 is handy. You'll probably want to resize before uploading anyway.

Forgot to say well spotted, BBB. I should have pointed that out r/ EXIF in my previous post but simply didn't. I've already worn out my +r on you, will hit you next time I can.

Oh the solenoid block is gone right now and have a 20lb'er for CO2; closed loop (but mothballed for now). The 'noids got clogged, at least the ones used for watering. But basically automation. I travel a lot and can peek in and adjust most anything from the road.

oh man, it's all like that... it's been 'work' to me for quite a while now. I had a two week break not long back and didn't miss running the op one little bit...

When I worked for a coffee company servicing that equipment they always used a pre-filter, no matter they water quality, maybe you already are, just a thought. VV

Ive been wondering the same thing, but can it also lead back to your computer. Now I know they have it but what is the best way to hide your IP address are anything else that leads back to you?

What's going on Al, I had a quick couple of questions for you. When I'm taking the clones once they are showing roots through their rockwool cubes and transplanting to their pots do you have to hand water for a couple of days until the roots find their way down into my nutrient soaked pellets? If so, should I just water around the rockwool cube into the pellets?
Would it be alright to presoak say 100 cubes at a time for 24 hours in 5.0ph water and then store them until ready to use?
Also I read you used denatured alcohol to sterilize your equipment when taking clones. Could one use 35% H202 instead, as I'm not sure where to find denatured alcohol?
Thanks again for all you do!

Proxies were never something I knew much about and when I last tried to use them my speed was so drastically reduced I just couldn't warrant it.
As far as the camera tags, I was aware my camera added extra info but as far as I could tell there was nothing that could be tracked to me. No serial numbers in mine but now I am worried as I post a lot of pics, more for my reference than others but still. I am a med patient working under the limit of the state minimum allowance. But you know the deal federally.
Anyways to the question..
Al, if you wouldnt mind going to my last post in my grow journal. There are two pics at the bottom of the layout I had initially, all the plants equally laid out. And then how I moved it last night to take advantage of the light. Since the roots are a day away from starting to grow into the hydroton I really want to get them into a solid position where I won't have to move them. My problem is that if I keep them how they are now, I run the risk of the roots and the branches growing into eachother. So eventually I would like to move them apart. But I would like to take advantage of the arrangement as it is now until that point.
Will I damage the roots if I move them at a later point? Should I look into putting some hydroton in a netpot and put the rw in that to make them easier to move around?
System is Ebb and Flow. Cubes are 6 inch cubes that I halved, so somewhere around 6x6x3. Any other info you may need would likely have been stated in the latest post or in the first post. But since this is more a general question I don't think you even need that info.
Please advise.
Thanks
