I’ll post results and comparisons as I had a 1000w raptor hood(think it’s rated to cover a 5x5 if I’m not mistaken?) in a4x8 tent on a mover to cover the entire tent. I’m shooting for a 6x6-8x8 coverage from one light without loosing photons from top to bottom and figured they should bounce...

Wierd concept but was thinking about building a pyramid style growroom since my tent tarp is all fucked now. My light normally covers a 4x4 but since I have to build a room vs a tent I was thinking about doing a four side pyramid, with the grow light at the top. The vents for the light would be...

@TintEastwood Thanks man! You got those good links on lock! Only person I know who has links and timing as great as you is my girl who I swear has a stash of passive aggressive memes just for me, saved for when I piss her off lmao

I got em1 that I use for soil plants but haven’t ever added it to hydro grows, anyone got any experience with that? Idk for sure but I thought that em1 uses some sort of molasses or brown sugar to preserve the microbes? I always hate the thought of adding molasses to a hydro grow but also I’m...

Yeah took the advice an pumped my humidity up to 70-74 with a swamp cooler ( towel, fan , and air stones on timers for mid day, and I’ve been able to stabilize @70-74 and 90-93f which is right around the vpd I was missing and the lil girls seem to be loving it too. I’m running great white @ 3...

@TintEastwood That manifold is for air pumps correct? I have a bunch of 6 way metal ones that I bought from the hydro store for my air pumps but haven’t been using, and I could definitely hook up to those. I’m thinking a pvc bulkhead from the pump to a 3/4 t then run a length of pipe the...

Is this for hydro or soil? I thought availability was based on medium, if I’m not mistaken? I’ve been running the ph at 6.0-6.1 and adjusting it down if it raises but your chart say 6.4 is optimal? I’m just a lil confused

Right on man that was the issue my vpd was way too high thanks

Actually had to top water the top left one yesterday by the air intake because it was drying out, my tents a bit hot in the low 90s and(but get it to 85-87 with the ac on) hovering between 35-45 rh, which is making me stoked because last grow was cut short because we couldn’t get the humidity...

Nice I’ll try that if it keeps goin outta wack

Yikes yeah 7 is crazy at this point the most it went up was to 6.4 but when I finally got it stable at 5.85 it kept rising to 6.0-6.1. Although Might be the great white tryna help the plants I’m just here holding um back idk When do you start raising your ppms? Like should I just do +50 every...

Just tested water and it was at 5.75, with ppms at 223. added 3/8 tsp of Protekt, a drop or 2 of ph down and I’m at 6.03-6.05 @228ppm

I adjusted to 225 this morning an the ph was around 6.0-6.1 so I adjusted it down to 5.75 because they like rising to 6.2 after a day or two. The ph rising is why I’m planning to shoot down/ clean the table today by removing each row and peeling the plastic back(thank god I used close pins and...

havent ran Rockwool and Hydroton in a couple of years but was gifted these plants already in Hydroton pots from a homie that had to travel for work and wasn’t gonna be back to finish them.so I took over but have been doing promix for years as well as soil. They are in rooted in Rockwool, places...
