So do you reduce A and B ml for ml or reduce the overall A+B less than ml for ml with PK13/14. ie if you add 10 ml of PK13/14 you reduce other nutes (ie A+B) by 10ml or not?

Cheers.Scroggsy.
 
I am considering going with a bubbleponics solution, but I do not want to get involved with rockwool after all I've read about it. Can I use coco instead? If so, any particular brand of type I should use?

In Bubbleponics/DWC the rockwool cubes are for rooting the seedlings/clones. You would then transfer those small cubes into netpots full of hydroton. The rockwool cubes really do nothing once the roots have made their way into the DWC bucket. And no I don't think coco would work in DWC because it takes a root system to hold the coco together, and thats not where your roots will be growing in DWC/Bubbleponics.

Wow, that really sucks because Rockwool sounds like it's not something I even want to bother handling or being around. It's like asbestos.

No it's not anything like asbestos. It's more like fibreglass but made of resin not glass. It will make you itch if you rub it on yourself, but it wont hurt you in anyway. Just use gloves if you feel that worried about it. It's nothing to be concerned about. Be more concerned about smoking.Scroggsy.

You have a long way to go young padawan.


It is called a CocoTek liner and they come in many sizes. You place this inside of a netpot, fill with coco, and the roots will grow right through the bottom.

This is how you use coco in recirculating systems. Fabric planters work also.

I don't smoke. I vape. Exclusively.

So I could use something like this in a bubbleponics system?

whatch out when you repot them, heard boys having problems repoting in airpot
I did and ended up with half the roots being torn off. Because I potted up from 6ltr to 10 ltr. So long as you pot up to a big enough size youll be fine. (ie 1ltr to 6ltr or 3ltr to 10ltr)

The Airpots come off really easy, it's trying to cram in the roots into a pot thats not big enough that will cause probs because you have to makesure that all the little holes are filled in the sides. Apart from that Airpots are probably the easiest and least damaging pots to use.Scroggsy.

These airpots are great. So far 2 of my biggest plants have stems over an inch thick like nearly 1 1/2 inches. I am a bit worried about how tall these puppies will get though, one of them is already 3 feet tall and only one week into flower.

Will they grow any taller after the stretch? they are indica's. Scroggsy.

Most of the 17,000 coca-leaf farmers who had encircled a camp of 245 narcotics officers quit their siege today, officials said, adding that military intervention would not be needed. Edgar Merwin, a United States adviser to the elite narcotics unit, which is known as the ''Leopards'' and is financed by Washington, said fewer than 100 growers still surrounded the camp, although roads to the camp remained blocked and farm leaders threatened violence if the police did not leave the area. The officers have been trapped in the remote camp in central Bolivia since Tuesday by coca farmers angered by the Government campaign to disrupt cocaine production. Cocaine is made from the coca leaf.

And Coca is not Coco or Cocoa. Each are different...

I hope you understand that.

What up people? My ladies are doing great in the coco. I'm on day 11 of flower. Looking good, pistils are showing and the co2 is working killa. I have a Blue Mystic and an LSD going that have both been topped also. The mystic is 2' and the LSD is at 17" tall. Here are a few pics from day 10 of flower.

Day 33 of my grow in straight Coco with the complete Botanicare PBP line. The strain is Black domina x Lowryder. (Automatic supersonic cristal storm from Samsara)
Follow for more through the link in my sig!
Looks healthy ma jigga. I'm generally not a fan of autoflower's, but Black Domina is some nice smoke. I've got Blackjack, which is a cross between Black Domina and Jack Herer, it's some very nice stoney stuff. Tastes like black hash mixed with incense.
