The Official House and Garden Thread

[anomolies]

I don't have an EC meter, thats why I wish someone would measure it for me lol.

house and garden rocks!! Used it in deep water culture (hydro line) and had amazingly fast growth. Stalks were huge along with the colas. A bit expensive Im not gunna BS there, but well worth the money spent. Make sure you pick up there feed guide when buying this product. It takes work. It's not the type of line you can just throw together and feed. Every product from H&G has a purpose and specific time period it needs to be introduced to the plant cycle, but when done properly you will get amazing results. I have never seen root mass like I did when I used deep water culture with H&G. I know use bio bizz and soil, which also works great but veg is much slower. Definetly would like to give the H&G soil a shot though. Cant remember if its strictly organic but I dont believe it is. Thats why I went to bio bizz. Love the pure stuff.

i'm currently running the their soil A&B line up and so far liking it in FFOF

Yes I would use both air stones and recirc pump

Thanks for the reassurance on planning this out right.

You do not adjust the ph. I actually emailed house and garden about this and they said that the rising ph is actually better for the plant uptake the p and k.

Yes I found out the hard way. I think I wasted some expensive shooting powder because I adjusted the ph to 5.9. I have already done a water change in my resevoir In stead of buying more shooting powder. I just switched my nutrient line to some leftover BC nutes for the last week.

Does anyone know of a good Cal/Mag suppliment that I can add to the H&G Aqua Flakes line? I have a strain that has weak branches and I want to stiffen them up to put on weight.

They all work pretty much the same. I personally use the botanicre cal/mag.

 

[#1Raiderfan420]

fk.. no one ever answers my questions about H&G. whyyyyyyyyyyy? =[

I have never measured a teaspoon of a/b so I have no idea. It will vary as well depending on the EC of the water you start with.

I prefer cal-max from grotek. to each their own i suppose... another thing you might want to look into is some form of silica for weak branches.. pro-silicate from grotek, rhino skin from advanced and botanicare makes one but the name is escaping me right now. just my 2c

well dur. Do you have RO water? do you mind measuring 1 tsp for me?

And you wonder why nobody answers your questions.

 

[anomolies]

well I'm just saying, of course RO is a factor. Anyone got an EC meter?

I was reading my first posts on this thread from like 2 years ago. lol, its funny how much you can learn and how far you can come in 2 short years.

 

[Mr.Natural]

Hey good thread purrrple. So what have you learned? Whats the biggest misconception with H&G ?

Yea it is pretty funny to look back. I actual have learned alot over the last year and a half along side you in this thread. I was a lurker for almost a year before I jumped into the riu community, but this was one of the first journals I looked at. Thanks for the great idea to start a house and garden thread.

[OZUT]

I've yet to experience it. I don't use Calmag and I don't use an RO system

 

[bowlfullofbliss]

Use hard water and it's not an issue .

 

[xivex]

Man I can't wait to get my hands on this shit. I'm trying to find it and local shop has to order it. Hopeing I can get it for flower at least and try a Bloombastic vs. H&G Flower line-up side-by-side in my LSD grow-off (see sig!).

Its supposed to be the bomb. I can't wait to try it.
