Ive heard that stuff can grow algae and its really expensive. Why would you wanna leave hydroton? The best thing besides hydroton is black neoprene inserts. They sell 5 in. You can grow some decent sized plants if you tie them up or support them. Even scrog might work to hold em up. Your roots...

Yea I use this stuff. I wrap my DWC buckets with their tape too. I decided to get some for a 4 x 8 x5 veg cabinet when I got sick of mylar heat problems. I did the whole cabinet and after I saw how it kept my cabinet cooler by a few degrees I bought the tape to rap my buckets in since it is...

Well the point of using final phase is to be able to flush later so you can use nutes longer and pack on a lil more weight late in the game. Normally I would start flushing at week 6 for an eight week strain but if you are using the final phase you could literally flush a few days before...

I've used that stuff with good results. My only problem with it is that it didnt make my "ph perfect" like it says on the bottle. But other than that its a great line just like most of the popular brands. During Veg as long as you get the macro and micro nutrients to your plants and provide the...

I noticed this black vehicle near my house. It has a back plate that say "official" on it. It has police lights inside the top of the windshield. It has a satellite on the roof which is folded down in the picture. If you know what this is for on the roof let me know cuz im kinda curious.

Yea that cataract kush is a winner but no totally stable - a friend of mine grew it out. He got 3 phenotypes off of 6 seeds. 2 exact same super short, 2 exact same stretchers [still short butt tallish for heavy Indica), and 1 in the middle - one died for no apparent reason. The one that was...

You could hand dip the rockwool in your nute solution [which must be kept in the dark and aerated] and then set it on a tray under your light. You would have to time this so it got a lil dry then wet over and over. Now even though this is possible its not the brightest idea and it defeats many...

Dont blame the nutes for your own lack of a proper system. Would you want people to stop smokin your buds just because they didnt know how to inhale? Fox farms is a well respected brand. Yes it is true that synthetic nutes are easier to deal with for a beginner but use up your ff and learn a few...

I would use 1/2 to 3/4 the ppm for aero than what i would use for hydro because your system will get less clogs and with aero your plants absorb more nutes so no harm in a lil less nutes. IF

Haha likewise on ur name my friend.. Dont tell Indica ive been f'n around with some Super Lemon Haze lately its nice to take a lil trip to the sativa side every once in a while although I prefer Indica doms most days of the week.

If you use rockwool the pump rarely needs to come on because it holds moisture so long. I've heard of people doing 2-3 waterings a day with large rockwool cubes or coco. I use hydroton (clay pellets) and keep my pump on 24/7 pumping aerated nutrient rich water to the roots at all times in my...

If thats all you have its better than nothing although duct tape is fibrous and not completely light proof so I would just use some black trash bags for now. Foil tape works well to seal out light it costs $5-10. Hydrogen peroxide can help a lot in very small doses like I mentioned in my last...

Yes you can place cubes directly into the flood tray. You can start with small cubes and work your way up to bigger ones. Make sure you peal the plastic off before inserting a smaller cube into a bigger one. In this case I think a passive drip system would be better than flooding the tray. You...

Lol never seen anybody pull the "pics from google intro" pretty funny man thanks for the entertainment.... And where the hell did you find a "9 gallon low profile DWC bucket" cuz the biggest buckets I've found where the 7 gallons. My 5 gallons are getting a bit tight. Anyways 1000 watts would...

bland bud = bland diet regardless of grow medium. My buds are feasting on the whole buffet in my DWC hydro system, ya dig? If I felt dirt had something that all my supplements didnt I would make dirt tea and strain it through a coffee filter then throw it in my system... hmmmm maybe thats a...

I don't know if this makes any sense: -QUOTE(stu sleeper 20vt @ May 1 2008, 06:18 PM)[http://www.uk420.com/boards/index.php?showtopic=130215] -i'm a member on ukc and geeza recently posted this.... -Ok how far have you got -First off is the pipe work all in the right places, the drain pipes...

Many people use neoprene inserts instead of net cups for aeroponics. Its just a circular neoprene cutout with a slit going to the center where you anchor the plants stem. This way all of the roots get sprayed but you will definitely need those supports to keep the plants stable. These systems...

Yeah I agree hydro can outproduce soil easily the only possible disadvantage I see to hydro [and a lot of ppl dont do this anyways] is you want to put up a little extra hard earned cash on supplements (organic or synthetic) to stimulate more oil production (terpenes) and end up w/ the kind of...

props for that huge plant J. Good idea to use the tote just for the sake of giving those roots more room and I still recommend the float valve idea its fairly cheap. You could buy a 50 gal roughneck jumbo tub for $20, a float valve for $5-10, a bulkhead fitting for $2-3 and some hose for $5 and...

I think recirculating deep water culture or RDWC would be your best bet thats just my opinion. RDWC can incorporate a drip system. Like flood and drain, you want to make sure different strains are separated so you can tweak nute levels. I run 4 plants per 600 hps and use a 50 gallon roughneck...
