It's pretty amazing what us freakin newbs can do with a little help! :bigjoint: You guys rock! I really appreciate all your input :bongsmilie:

Very nice room there Gypsy! I like the idea for your "Thingy" - I think it'll work... :peace:

I've never heard of lollipoppin being done in quite that manner - I'll definitely check out the info on urbangrower and see what that's all about. --> Found some info on Urban Grower - Vol 35 Pruning. If that's what you're referring to then I can understand where you're coming from. The...

Yep - after chatting with a few people on RIU (props to morrisgreenberg) I added a 15min segment timer. I have it set for 15on/15off for this round. My roots have really taken off since I added it - coulda been because they were in the machine for about a week before I added the timer tho...

Thanks for the info! :bigjoint: I've not ordered anything for my operation online as of yet - little nervous due to my state not being Medical Marijuana friendly (don't wanna end up on some list ;) ). The price per gallon from BGHydro ($30) seems pretty good - I was paying $13 a quart...

No apologies necessary - I love the input! :hug: I didn't really realize H2O2 was doing all that, but once ya think about it, it does make a lot of sense. All I know for sure is that the first couple tanks I did were quite scummy by the end of a week, and since I've used the H2O2 it's been...

Mine's been running around 74 for water temps, and the room is between 75 and 80. It's just crazy how a little difference in the environment can make such a big difference in the results. I'm happy to report that the plants in my flower room are perking up nicely, and a few are showing some...

WOO HOO!! Lovin them roots :hump: I've gotta say that getting that aerocloner was one of the best purchases for my operation. How cold were they getting at night? Is it the water temp that was getting too low, or just the air temp? I wish I was sure of which strain I'm growing (bag seed...

This is my first grow, so I'm no pro, but the information that I went by was this... When you see a second set of true leaves (don't count those first leaves that pop up from a seedling) then you can switch to full strength nutes - this will be approx 2 weeks after starting on the 1/2...

I got the 15min segment timer installed and set to run 15on & 15off. So far it seems to be working as well or better than before. I'm really interested to see if I get less of the roots starting in the neoprene on the next run. Decided that 3 of the plants I put in to flower were a bit too...

I've just started using AquaShield and Hygrozyme in my tanks. I've had zero issues with my clone tank (other than when I also use SuperThrive), but my larger flowering tank does seem to get a bit funky (some slime/cloudiness) and the pH needs more attention. As far as I'm concerned the jury...

Cool - I get whatcha mean now. Looks like I can get one around here for about $18, much better :joint:

I wouldn't suggest using cloning gel in your aerocloner. I tried it on my first batch and they took forever to root. The gel kinda formed a greyish goo cap on the tips of the cuttings. My second batch was done w/o any rooting hormone - just cut them from the mother and placed them in the...

Didn't think you were steering me wrong - just wanted to make sure I understood. Thanks for the clarification :D Are you using an "expensive" cycle timer on yours?

Seems it's time to look for a cycle timer - always needing something new for the grow rooms :) Thanks to all for the input!

Looks like you're getting things nicely dialed in - Excellent work! :joint: After my poor luck with cloning in rockwool using an aerocloner has been a savior for my sanity. Getting much better results and so much less hassle. Good luck and keep us posted :eyesmoke:

When you say "30/30" do you mean 30min on & 30min off?

Nope - didn't abandon the drip system. I use the drip system on the Veg side for the mothers and the ebb/flow system for flowering (just like Mr Green). When I initially put the mothers in pots I didn't know about burying the rockwool cubes. I have covered them with some squares of panda...

I've noticed that there seems to be more new root growth quicker from the area where the plant is being held by the neoprine seal. If I push my clones down a bit I will often find new roots where the stem was in the seal, when at the same time the lower part of that stem has no roots, or just...

Thanks much! 8) The first batch out of my cloner had to be taken before I felt they were ready (not too many roots). All I did was bury them fairly deep, the bottom of the stem is buried about half way down the pot, and they've stayed standing for over a week. I also kept the circulation fan...
