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

    yup, 600 is prolly a little bit low. When are you scheduled to change it out? If the sprayer is getting tangled it may be causing more harm than good. I'm not familiar with the kit so I cant comment directly tho. Do the dircetions mention anything about it? When you run out of GH nutes, look...

    I can field the 2nd half of that question from reading other threads by UB: Grow: Dynagro Foliage pro http://www.wormsway.com/detail.aspx?t=prod&sku=FP410&AC=1 9-3-6 AFTER STRETCH bloom: Dynagro Bloom http://www.wormsway.com/detail.aspx?t=prod&sku=DB410&AC=1 3-12-6 Can I suggest a...

    P.S. Lucas formula was derived trying to find a good balance with minimal effort. A good balance is the key in the end. How you get there is kind of unimportant.

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

    If you've added back 2 gallons fresh water your PPM is even lower now. The mix your using (i assume that was ml/gallon of grow-micro-bloom) should be fine for veg actually. I would think that it would give you more than about 600PPM tho. hmm. Whats your current PPM? That will tell us if you need...

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

    LST requires too much added veg time and is too time intensive with multiple plants. The point of this is to top, veg for a short recovery period, and flip the switch. Wow, I just realized this thread is 147 pages long. Such a simple technique and basic science draws a crowd. ;)

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

    Nah, leave the light where it is now. No benefit from moving it at this point. They are old enough now to be that close. The papery feel to the leaves is caused by the deff as well. N deff. Mg is required for N uptake so a mg deff will lead to N deff. They are all tied together but N and Mg have...

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

    Hi Nasty. Scribed. I have a few pointers for you and a couple things to point out that should help you on your maiden hydro voyage. 1st. That 1000W is WAY to close for your plants veg needs. On the plus side its been that way since the beginning and they are still alive so there is prolly no...

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

    I would weigh in that topping causes stress. It's not a lot and most strains handle it with absolutely no problem but if you have something that is rather weak genetically because of breeding section process, poor cloning techs etc, it can really recoil when presented with any stress at all. I'm...

    Don't mean to step on UB toes but I can say from experience, No. You will not get the same yield under artificial lighting as you do under the sun. There are some new digital (hot-start approved) lamps that are coming out soon with a much fuller light spectrum in each lamp but I'm betting even...

    Coco and soil grow indoor

    That is probably a bit much. I'm thinking 1 flood every couple days will prolly do. It's easy to increase the frequency of flood if you get really dry. Going the other way is much harder and more stressful to the plant. :weed:

    Coco and soil grow indoor

    Cheesecloth would be fine as long as it can draw enough water through it.

    Coco and soil grow indoor

    Hey, Dbo. Scribed man, I'll be around and commenting from the cheap seats ;) . I'm a big fan of ebb/flow systems. Did you drop your water pump in a nylon sock to keep the coco particles out of it? As I'm sure you've figured out by now that level on the water is fine. Grow on, buddy.

    Hi Grum, What is your current feed? N-P-K and dosage.

    Thrips, Mites, or Both. +rep for help

    I do see some thrip damage but its difficult to tell if its new or old. Some of the leaves are necrotic and that is not from bugs. You mentioned that you fed tiger bloom, is that all? What is the NPK and dosage of all your current nutes? Always PH adjust after adding nutes not b4. PH swings are...

    For All Cap Ebb and Grow Users

    I run just a few gallons of water in to rinse and then pump it back down the drain. NO need to refill totally. Good idea on the table substitution. The controller bucket is the heart of the system.

    advanced nutrients vs. fox farm

    I love it when obviously new growers get upset and start attacking when presented with simple science that destroys all the hype around canna-nutes or any other well-guarded forum paradigm. The plant produces all the vitamins and acids it needs naturally and wont take up most of that crap via...

    Hey Al, Happy to see you and to know that all is well with you down under. :) It's always a pleasure to have you around for as long as your real life allows. I don't spend a whole lot of time on the forums anymore, instead hanging out in the IRC channel spreading the e/f word, but I always make...

    For All Cap Ebb and Grow Users

    I use H2O2 to keep my rez and controller bucket nice and clean. I use 2 ml/l of 35% h202 every 3-4 days and it stays very clean and bacteria free. I just finished dumping and filling the rez for the first time in a month (I use Lucas with addbacks) and there was no bad odor or nasties on the...

    Uncle Ben's Gardening Tweeks and Pointers

    One more thing, Ben. You mentioned that you do not believe the Lucas Formula to be a complete feed. Can you elaborate on that a little bit? When properly mixed Lucas comes out to about 1-1-2-.6(mg). Whenever I am considering a new nutrient I always plug the number into the calculator to see...
