    Replacing my drip system. Which way to go?

    I am going to replace my drip system with a new system. I love my old drip system but I would like to get rid of as much grow media as possible. My grow tent is 150 x 150 cm and I grow vertical for the moment (2 x 600 watt). HPA and RDWC both look very interesting. I have a green thumb but...

    I use the online service myself and I can tell that it erase the exif info. I agree in that it must be a perfect way for LEA to setup a trap since most of the people who uses the service probably have something to hide. There are quite a lot of discussions on hacker forums of this kind of...

    First Grow, a few questions+oddities

    High Phenn, Good decision to finally start to grow your own cannabis! The harvest much depends on the strain and temperature when you grow outside. If you live in a cold climate you can start the grow indoor and move the plants outside when the temperature is high enough. The plant might survive...

    chopNcrop, the external tube shows the water level like you said but could also be used for draining the water from the bucket.

    What makes Aeroponics more difficult?

    On the TV news, the majority of the raided grow ops seems to use drip systems. I often ask myself if the professional illegal growers choose drip systems because it's simple, considered less likely to fail and over time is more profitable. Or if perhaps the most successful growers actually do...

    Is it a bad idea: Aero or DWC + vertical grow?

    It seems to be an excellent idea for anyone in my situation, with a daytime job that interferes with the growing. Looking forward to see some inspiring pics from your next grow!

    Is it a bad idea: Aero or DWC + vertical grow?

    Impressive system! I really like the idea that you can walk away from it for a period if necessary. Your plants seems to thrive in that environment. Does your preferred strain veg faster in that system compared to other methods you have used?

    Is it a bad idea: Aero or DWC + vertical grow?

    The size of the grow tent is 150 x 150 x 200 cm (5' x 5' x 6.5'). The height is 6.5' and the space for the reservoir under the tray is close to 50 cm. Height left for growing 5'. The lighting is 2 x 600 watt HPS. The average temperature inside the tent is 25 degrees Celsius (77F). I use...

    Is it a bad idea: Aero or DWC + vertical grow?

    I have been growing vertical for about a year and it works fine with the limited grow space of my tent. I use a recirculating drip system with coco as grow medium. I read this thread on Amazon aero system from Nutriculture...

    Heat stress, potassium deficiency or something else?

    I flushed the whole system this weekend just to be sure that there is no imbalance in the containers. My latest theory is that there was a small imbalance combined with heat stress. Since my last post I have found one or two leaves on the other strain, with pale almost dry leaves. Those leaves...

    How do I get the most out of Aurora indica from Nirvana?

    Yes she has started to smell strong the last week. I really love the smell, intense and sweet, not very different from strong oranges. I only have two plants of this strain but I am a little bit worried about the smell. If I grow 5-6 plants in my next grow I will consider to invest in a ozone...

    nematodes and gnats

    I had the same problem in my hydro system. The situation escalated and the sticky paper just wasn't enough so i bought nematodes. The product i used was delivered as a gel in a small sealed plastic bag. The gel should be mixed with 1000 ml water and should be enough for about 20 pots or an area...

    Heat stress, potassium deficiency or something else?

    Thanks for the help Mainliner, now I can exclude a few things from the list and you gave me a few ideas of what could have caused this problem. THE KONASSURE: It's the highest leaves only. It's the second time with the White Rhino strain but the first time in a vertical setup and with coco as...

    Heat stress, potassium deficiency or something else?

    Thanks for the input Mainliner! I have a recirculating drip system using coco as grow medium. I use GHE nutrients Flora Bloom and Flora Micro mixed in the "Lucas Formula" ratio. I do add extra CalMag to the formula since some growers says that I need extra Magnesium when growing in Coco. Every...

    Heat stress, potassium deficiency or something else?

    Hi, I grow two different strains in my second vertical grow, Aurora indica and White rhino. The Aurora indica thrive with no signs of heat stress or deficiency. The White rhino however, has some kind of problem. Some of the leaves on the top of each plant is discolored. Each one of them...

    How do I get the most out of Aurora indica from Nirvana?

    Hi, This is my first grow with Aurora indica from Nirvana. I started the 12 hour light cycle 46 days ago. When I observe the trichomes with a mini microscope some of them have a milky color and some are still clear. When I look at the buds in daylight about 60% of them looks ready for...
