Looking great....! Pen
Yes but I would seek other options
I have recently read that you can use pure 33% sulfuric acid from auto zone to lower ph.
Thanks man. Makes me real happy to hear that. Seeing that I don't show this to any one other than RIU every once n a while. STAY HIGH!!!Looking great....! Pen
what grodan cubes are you using HR? You say 4x4, but what is the height? 2.5" or 4". Also, when you put these in the ebb and grow, how much of the rockwool cube is under the water-line?
Good to see your still lurking fumbleLurk ............
Hey bro i think winters coming way to fast lol, but im thinking things might get better with the cold.HR,
I just want to confirm your Aquashield ratio? I been using about 12oz per 50-55gal. I don't use piranha or anything else just aquashield. I know your using 7ml per gal but using it with piranha also. Just wanted to confirm the amount?
Thanks Bro!
I hope all this stupid weather won't destroy the trout fishing! Not sure I can take that after the shitty salmon season!!
I know you didn't ask me, but how often were you watering when you were hand watering? 3 times a day in straight rockwool seems excessive, and when I tried out 6x6 cubes, I felt once a day was even too much when the plants were young. You may have no new roots because of over-watering, and the plant doesn't need to grow new roots searching for water if the cubes are always over-saturated. A little wet or moist or damp is cool, but sopping wet all the time might not be ideal.HR,
So my flood table project isn't going that good. Basically what we had before was just a homemade table that we put our 4x4 grodan blocks on and hand watered them. And for the most part it worked pretty good. So for ease of use and consistency in watering I made a flood and drain table. So we started out watering 3 times a day. Now its been about 3 weeks and things aren't going good at all! The problems were having is no growth,wilting and no new roots. I've been out of town and haven't looked at them myself but thats the description I got. So what do you think? First impression is it's just to much water especially since we were hand watering them before inconsistently and they were fine. Also there's a lot of the mold on them. Do you take the plastic off of the grodan when there in the table? Also it seems that the roots would have a hard time establishing in that wet wool? Although I read in past posts that its ok for it to be wet. Any help would be appreciated as usual! I'll try to get some pics
Thanks!

What stage of growth are you in, and how big are the plants? Might wanna cut back to one watering a day, see if the plants perk back up.
Thanks HR,I leave the plastic on, but 3-4 weeks you should have trees! So something must be rong! I would cut back on watering
till you see roots poping out the lower part of the blocks. Sounds like over watering
