veg for like 5 to 7 days for a sog, and turn around is strain dependent. but if a clone takes 2 weeks to root good and you veg for 7days and your strain is a 8 week one
your looking at 11 week turnaround time on cycles

7 days 12 buckets and you think ill get 2lbs? I wouldnt need longer?
Longer for 12 buckets. You want to do SCROG...not SOG. Scrog you bush out the plants using topping and LST, then a screen and then tuck them during the beginning of stretch to get an even canopy. SOG you take 100 clones, root them, and flower them right away. Preferably with a strain that likes to grow 'single cola' versus naturally bushing. 2 completely different strategies.

Just started a grow with C.A.P ebb and gro and I'm worried about root rot. I used AN tea in my soil grows but was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for this system?

Dont use an bennys in a ebb! Now with that said, root rot is a issue! More so than pythium/slime.
First off raise those buckets 1to2 in. To allow full drain out! Next thing either start using h202 or
Use teas that you brew outside your res. What on you pick is up to you. I can say this if you can
Keep water temps in the 64f to 66f using h202 will be fine, but if you go over that then brewing
Teas is a must

So, I'm at the end of week 8 in flower and getting ready to chop. My question is should I flush? This is my first run in a titan ebb and grow. If you use a clearex flush, how long and what flood cycles are you using? Thanks

Dont use clearex its a waist of money! Its made of frutose and sugar :( if your planing on a good flush use plain water,
Theres no need to ph this water. Do it for 7 days to 2 weeks! But 7 is ok. Run it like this- dum your res and refill with
Water, then let it run in your system fo a day or two. You will see that the ppm of your water will continue to rise, at
This point dump that water and refill with new and run it again. Repeat this process till you have water returning to the
Res thats the same ppm of your tap water you started with, at this point your ready to cut.

It's a shame we lost about 10 pages. There was so much info in them. Oh well.
There is no need to use a flushing agent. Flushing is to remove salts and other unused nutes from your grow. But on a final flush you want to remove everything. So why add something? I use ro water in my grow but when it comes to flushing I don't think it's needed. Used ph tap water. After 2 days you will see the ppm go up 200-300 if not more dump that and fill with more ph tap water. And let it go till harvest. The ppm can still go up 100-300 ppm by then but that is what you want. And you just removed about 600 ppm from your grow media.
