Hydro is more expensive on the setup for sure, but after the initial purchase.... way cheaper!! I reuse everything but old nute water, 1.5" rockwool, and about 10% of the used hydroton. Equipment failure?? If you are growing so big and arent watching your gals for over 72hrs at a shot, you're...

NO NUTRIENTS FOR CLONES!! well, cept for maybe a touch of the almighty Superthrive. 1drop per gallon more than enough. Tried voddoo juice and just flat out cant do much with organics in my setup environment. Also, Ive found that my unfiltered 60ppm tap water is fine. Actually, the chlorine...

Only time i noticed excessive drying was when I had too much light or temps too high. Im guessing the vitagrow is helping. The temps and humidty i keep is about 80/80, but I do like misting them daily. Never had a mold or bacteria problem since I clean the thing evey time I transpant. Clones...

Seems like a lot of extra money, and hastle to clean up. I use the standard black plastic flats, and a simple dome. Once i take the clones, dip in clonex and put in 1.5" rockwool, i dip them in Vitagrow anti-wilt. Seems like I dont have to water the cubes again for about a week. I use the off...

ive done so many tests on when and where to top, how late is too late ect... What Ive found is that successful topping usually begins at the 3rd true leafset from bottom. Also, try to top above the nodes that have 2 small bud/leaf/stem sites started. Sometimes the secondary branches dont have a...

TSK TSK! A big reason I like hydro is the efficiency and lack of waste. Nothing stranger than watching someone dump and buy hydroton all the time. Rinse that shit in the tub and reuse it. Think GREEN my friend, this includes recycling. If you keep a decent clenliness regiment, excess buildups...

Ive heard of the mold issue and lung problems. Maybe it isnt worth the risk. I retract my previous suggestion for health reasons. Although, I DO smoke a pack of cigs a day. haha

Did I misss something here? Dont we still have a federal govt that has MJ as a schedule one? Legal huh? anyhow, this thread wasnt about that, we've plenty of ones that are tho. :) Happy growing to all!

yeah, what he said:mrgreen:

I get paranoid above about 95 canopy temps. 90 is my preferred max. Reason i got an overtemp controller. Dont worry, if it is or was too hot, they'll let you know in short order. The leaves will tell you very easily. Hopefully you just lost a day or two of growth, but prepped them gals for...

All you can do is dry it out as much as you can stand, and try it. Id recommend a water pipe, but if it tastes too damn harsh, give it someone you dont like. If your throat seems abnormally dry after....step away. Sux, but excessive mold is bad for your lungs i think. Sry I dont have the "pour...

Hang to dry (in shade) and check daily. In that heat, wont take long (2 days?). Once they FEEL kinda dry and crispy, put them in jars and close lid. They will be wet as hell within 3hrs! I just open the jars, leave it open for a day, close again. If you're worried theyll dry too quickly, put...

I just let mine dry out, spread it thin in tubs, and pick out the dried roots. after that, a tad of controlled compressed air. Leaving too much kinda added to dirty res tanks and flies in my setup. after the precleaning, then the rinsing in plain water, then the soaking in h202, it does fine...

6" fan and 600cfm carbon filter. Hate to say it, but I tried all kinds of shit, and in the end... an expensive a hell filter ($200?) and a tad noisy $100 fan. My location and situation cant afford ANY smell to leave my home. Had the in-laws in and even as non-smokers, never noticed during a...

100watt hps (screw floros, I cant get em to perform above clone) per 4 moms, and I get 10 cuts per every 4 weeks. Shit, cant keep up. I mean, 10 cuts per, after I chope em down to a bloody stump previously. Flood and drain twice a day, 100ppm 3part nutes in 15gallons. Change 1 time a month, and...

No clue, about there's. I got a phresh filter and I like it, but thats just my 2cents. Anyone else?

Been running the fan 24hrs a day, but now pulling thru 2 of the yieldmaster hoods and the phresh filter. I had to put a good bend in the intake hose between veg and flower room. The light was traveling thru the hose! ha! Anyhow, even with the extra restrictions and such, the bulb still vibrates...

Standard mogul sockets all day long! Too many bulb choices for that socket, and geez, its 3 wires. Just tighten the screws and ground your fixture, youll be fine. My local electric supply has them for around 12-15$ . I'd definately go see the shop manager, and ask why his store is taking...

The moms never get big enough for the roots to get out of the net pots by much. Im not a huge fan of the net pots....root matter breaks off, they dont pull out very easily at harvest, and they fall over. I use closed containers in everything else, because youre right...roots dont like light.

wow, 1100 for light nutes? I like to keep mine at 800ppm in the meat of flower. Of course thats on the nacl scale. maybe your using the other scale? If I mix my nutes up to 1100 on nacl, it burns the hell outta them. I think my nute company uses the other measurement, cuz getting it to the ppms...
