    Cleaning Hydroton

    Allow me to actually answer the question. The way I do it is to fill up a rubber made 25 gallon tote with pH'ed water (5.6-5.8 ) I take the amount of hydroton I'm going to use and soak it over night. The next day I rinse them in the sink using a strainer. Then, while I'm germing my plants, I run...

    Help!

    hydroton is an inert clay, so is its dust and particulate, this is why we use it as a medium. While it muddies your reservoir if you don't pretreat your hydroton it will not sicken your plants. Besides, that's like a cup of hydroton in a 4 inch net pot. These issues are pH too high, and nute...

    My answer wasn't sarcastic, you asked for the best bang for your buck and I gave it to you.

    Looking for guidance

    Lumatek ballasts are known for being reliable and long lasting, Vortex inline fans long lasting and reliable, I like CAN carbon filters and cool tube reflectors are garbage that's why you can make one for $8. With a 16 square foot footprint you want a reflector with a large footprint 2x2 or...

    wardrobe grow advice

    I grow in a similar sized wardrobe, I use a 400 watt MH/HPS with an a/c air cooled fan. I know that a 600 watt would be too hot for my cab so it's safe to assume that it will be too hot for your space as well.

    lookin for some advise

    I always recommend using a waterfarm, it is a combination of DWC and drip system. I have been using one for years with phenomenal results. Read this thread to see what a waterfarm can do https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/344359-pineapple-express-g13-labs-seed.html a lot of waterfarm users...

    Best hood for a 2x3x5ft 400w?

    I would recommend a High Yield Super Nova http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-SuperNova-Reflector.asp . It's the one I use, excellent light coverage due to the sloped front and it's air cooled with one of the flanges on top which makes it easier to fit in a small space.

    Cutting my ALIEN STARFIGHTERS TODAY !

    It is a shame that you wasted, supposedly, good genetics on harvesting an immature plant, I don't really care why. If you're butt hurt that you were criticized for harvesting an immature plant, then perhaps you shouldn't post it. Or if you do, provide a reason as to why you would intentionally...

    cfm rating

    Better to have to much cfm than too little, I'd run it with the 4inch 140 cfm fan, and during flower if you can smell it outside the tent get yourself a fan motor speed controller and you can lower your fan cfm's that way.

    Hydro shop etiquette?

    Jesus fucking Christ, seriously you all have way over thought an incredibly simple thing to the point you should be arrested for being too stupid to walk amongst normals. Every hydro shop, everyone single of them in America, make 80% - 100% of their revenue selling to weed growers. On the rare...

    so u think your a hydro pro?

    I am not a pro, I can't say my set up is perfect, but I do well with it certainly better than most indoor soil growers. I use a PowerGrower Eco, it's a bigger version of a water farm and my yields for one plant run between 10-16 ounces. So I call it a 13 oz average, that's based on my lowest...

    24x24x56 vs 36x36x64 Darkstreet II secret jardin

    You have roughly 46 cubic feet, for just filter and air exchange a 4inch 180 cfm inline fan would be appropriate, to air cool your fan and filter/air exchange you want 6 inch 270 cfm inline fan or more. If you are going to go mh in veg and hps in flower, you probably want to spend the extra $30...
