    Should I give up on these sprouting? Pics

    Stop poking at it. Keep the temps around 75*F. I don't use domes for seedlings as the media stays wet too long, which isn't good.

    What size net for scrog?

    Plants look great. Scrogging can be done many ways. Some top a lot to create many branches and fill the screen with those, some top once or twice to use a few man branches and some don't top at all. The less you top the faster the growth and the more you have to grow your plant horizontally...

    Spartan series 4 light controller

    Turn off breaker/panel Connect the 240V (red to red, black to black and green to ground). Turn on breaker/panel. The instructions clearly state that you add a timer to the 120V trigger. http://sunlightsupply.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/product/702898_Application-Diagram.pdf...

    Best method cloning

    I use a DIY aero cloner using tap water at about 300ppm (0.6 EC) and add calcium hypochlorite (pool shock) at 0.01g/gal 2x/week. Change out water every other week. No pH adjustment. No temperature management. Mists for 15 minutes every 2 hours. 23w 5000K CFL @ 18/6. Close to 100% success so far.

    Brown leaf edges from transplant?

    Could be UV burn. Move that plant into the shade and as SPLFreak said, slowly introduce them to sunlight. Start at 1 hour a day and increase an hour each day.

    Reverse Osmosis

    If you're using a tank, I highly suggest you get a permeate pump (if you don't mind the device ticking as it refills). http://www.purewateroccasional.net/permeatepump.html

    Considering giving hydro another go

    I made a 1/2" pvc rectangle around my plant with around 25x 1/16" holes evenly spaced around. I use a 264 gal/hour el-cheapo water pump. I don't ever see dry spots within the "spray zone" when I check.

    Considering giving hydro another go

    Dunno yet. 1st run with this system. I would suspect a little lower than DWC and a little higher than coco. I stopped using DWC as it required too much electricity to run the chillers... running sterile without the chillers worked, but it's just another thing to do. Growth rates in DWC are...

    1. Yes. And the pH 2. No. Yes. No. I'm running recirculating drip w/ clay balls. Almost silent. Runs for 1 min every 2 hours now.

    IWS flood timing

    That should do it... but I like flooming or waterfall much better. http://www.thctalk.com/cannabis-forum/showthread.php?58309-Flooming-vs-Air-stones

    IWS flood timing

    Just make sure the water is well aerated and you should be good to go.

    Portable a/c for sealed co2 (split or window a/c not option)

    All you need to do is put the cold section where you want it cooled and the hot section where you don’t. You can also leave the ac in your grow area and run ducting from the hot side out of your grow area. Or put the ac on the outside and run ducting on the cold side into your grow area. I’ve...

    Portable a/c for sealed co2 (split or window a/c not option)

    I purchased a window unit on craigslist. Removed the front. Removed the fan from the evaporator (it was sharing an axle with the condenser fan). Pulled out the evaporator as much as I could (be careful not to pinch or break a line). "Installed" the window ac so the condenser was outside of...

    Samsung 1 footer build driver suggestion

    Doesn't the HLG-80H-12A only goes down to 10.8V? Series or parallel... sharing current or sharing voltage... either way man.

    3" Jiffy pot question

    When I used these in the past I tore off the bottom half of them. I don't know if it made any difference. If I were to use them now, I would plant the whole thing. It would be less shock to the roots and help maintain a nice dense center root ball.

    Drastic pH drop overnight with Mega Crop in DWC

    I was having problems with my current grow in early veg. I was adding cal+mag+iron to my RO+DI to get 0.3 EC then rhino shin to get to 0.4 EC. Then I added megacrop until I got to 1.2 EC. pH swings like crazy... I kept adjusting pH to get to around 5.8. Plant got a little fried... got some...
