    There is a break fitting that goes on the fill line. Just follow the instructions and u should be OK.

    I've heard it referred to as the green rush many times. Trouble is, during the gold rush not many people made a lot of money. Lots of people flocked to Cali during the rush but the people that made the most consistent monies were the guys selling axes and shovels. Sound familiar?

    Like i said, it refreshes that water every flood so its not a big deal. Plenty of o2 in that water. You can raise the inner pot up 1/2" or so by tossing a piece of pvc in the bottom if you really want to. Maximum yield per plant is about lighting and veg time, not system. This setup is designed...

    Nasty's 1000w 6 plant Hydro Grow! Pics n' updates!

    Your PH climbing is due to pathogens in the rez. H2O2 will fix that 2.

    Fellas, please try to avoid the big dreams of being able to support yourself on growing medical marijuana. The idea that you can make 120K a year from selling your closet grow is insane. Don't quit your day job. A great goal for anyone starting up a medi grow is to never have to buy another...

    Who uses the CANNA Nutrient line?

    Right on! Rep + Salts are salts, the plant does not give a rat's ass where it came from. Canna is good stuff. Gets the job done. Glad to see you just got the base line and some rhizo. all the boosters and magic sauces are crap. Macros and micros. Good luck! Keep us posted. :-P

    We will never have the same amount of product here as Cali simply because we have a shit outdoor grow season. As we get more and more growers in the market what will happen tho is all the tumbled crap that is sold in a lot of places will disappear. If its not frosty it wont sell at all.

    No need for a stone in each bucket. The flood cycle refreshes that water every few hours. You should have a few large stones and fairly big pump in your rez tho. I cheat and use h2o2 instead. :bongsmilie:

    It works in 1 shot. If you get all the adults and eggs, soak well, the 1st time there is no need to re-apply. Mites only grow tolerances if they live thru it. I've used it myself on 3 different patient grows and have not seen a mite since in any of those locations. It is kind of a nuclear option...

    Uncle Ben's Gardening Tweeks and Pointers

    Organic tastes better, huh? :roll: I'll bet you a harvest you can't tell the difference in an organically fed plant and one fed with a non-organic fert. The plant does not give a rats ass where it gets the raw minerals from. Taste is about trim, dry and cure. :blsmoke::blsmoke:

    Hortilux vs standard bulb

    Tighter nodal spacing is from the added blue arc in the SuperHPS lamps. Either get SuperHPS or supplement a good daylight CFL or 2 for the added blue spec.

    The only silver bullet to kill spider mites and larvae in 1 application i've encountered was FloraMite. Kind of expensive tho. 1/2 fl oz (enough to mix 6-12 gallons of spray) is about 30$ on ebay. Qt makes 400-800 gallon of spray and is 300$.

    I recommend soil to all new growers. A good soil mix can be made up and given nothing but tap water as feed for 12 weeks. Gets no easier than that. 400W is a good size for a start-up grow. 400W is good for about 8 sq ft. Don't be afraid of non-organic fertilizers. The plant does not care if...

    Nasty's 1000w 6 plant Hydro Grow! Pics n' updates!

    The drug store stuff is only 2% so you need to use 10X as much causing issues with some of the buffers they use. Get the 35% from the hydro store and add it at a rate of 8ml/gallon of rez every 3-4 days. No more pathogen issues.

    does this look like nitrogen burn

    Nope. Slight heat stress.

    Hortilux vs standard bulb

    The added blue arch tube is what the SuperHPS like Hortilux lamps have over the std ones. You can supplement for the blue spec in other ways (a daylight cfl or 2 for example) if desired. I ran a 400W mag ballast for a long time. 120$ + shipping from HTG.

    Uncle Ben's Topping Technique to Get 2 or 4 Main Colas

    Yea, my bad, i kinda came off like a prick there. :dunce:. I was peeved at my Broncos choking away another good start :cuss: Anyway, Swisher has it right, taking off the growing tip will induce growth at all other growth sites. The 2-4 main cola technique is for earlier on but you can take off...
