LOL do not put pool shock in your rez!?!?! you have no idea how it will react with your salts? its meant to keep water clean to swim in now grow plants?!?!

I learned recently that the molasses + bennies turns the N to nitrates which the plant can't use. FYI

Every time i see these threads I laugh. Pool shock? Ya that sounds tasty for your plants. ALSO, h2o2 DOES NOT PREVENT PATHOGENS. Any dose of common sense will tell you that any thing corrosive enough to kill microbes/fungi spores will be strong enough to kill your plant. same with bleach...

Just grab some Nitrogen from NPK, don't over think it. A little goes a long way and you should see them start greening up with-in a day. This is good to use at the end of flower when you are flushing/reducing nutes. Most nitrogen is nitrate nitrogen which washes out way easier than other...

Looks like over fert caused a lock out.

White dots in the last pic are thc glands before they become globular. Plants look healthy other than ones drooping. Maybe pots are too small? those plants look pretty big for a 5gal. If they are drying out every day or every two days and you are feeding them everyt ime you might be over...

Yea exactly. got a penguin 1/2 hp chiller and it keeps 100gal cool with the method. no flow control, all the systems seem to be within a degree or two of each other. between 64 and 66 if i keep the chiller at 66. i got a pvc tee in the return to add a temp probe at some point then i might...

that company sells all of them and they hook up to a rasp pi or arudino. the yoi can host a web sserver on one with charts. thats my plan. i have the T for my temp and then gonna put the rest of the probes in the rez. my chiller cools the rez so i want tovknow what temp it is going into the...

You only need the one with bacteria, fungi don't benefit hydro. The mikos in dirt create a symbiotic web with the root system to transport nutrients, I don't believe it works like that in hydro. The bacteria work because they are small single cell organisms that work symbiotic with the plant. If...

Also anyways like I was saying just because you don't need it in your rez doesn't mean you don't need it for your grow. "Humic and fulvic acids also help protect your plants against stress. In the Virginia Tech study, it was found that the 5:2 ratio of humic acid to kelp stimulated plants to...

With all due respect just because commercial growers use it doesn't mean it is the best. It means it is the best cost/benefit ratio. LOL...Thats day one business class. http://www.haifa-group.com/products/plant_nutrition/water_soluble_fertilizers/haifa_micro/ Haifa Group makes all water...

That mix looks nice. whats 25lb cost, how many gallons?

I said folair... also none of the other micros aren't chelated in the image you posted so you could benefit from it probably IMO.

I have 3 - 8 site UC DIY clone system with 3in pvc and uniseals.

Fulvics also have chelated iron which can be mixed with kelp for a powerful foliar spray that can me used in any grow medium.

The thread in/out of the pump should be regular 3/4" NTP. My chiller pump is connected with NTP to PEX brass peice. the uniseals we're annoying thats for sure, only had two leak out of 29 buckets tho. After looking at your hole prep you would be fine with uniseals. Most people rush it and...

Fulvic/Humic acids are an essential part of plant feeding, esp in Hydro. Fulvic is better for Hydro because it is a more refined version of Humic Acid. Fulvic Acid is a natural chelator/complexing agent. Most expensive hydro lines have chelated micro/micros which allows them to be taken up...

Also I would ditch the humic acid and just use AgBio Ful-Power, much much cleaner. Everything else looks good, only criticism i have over kelp is while it deff feeds the microbes I'm not convinced they will be in large enough numbers to create the plant hormones they supposedly create. I...

That is because most cheap silicas are Potassium Silica with releases potassium when it is mixed with water creating silicic acid, this will raise the pH. RAW silica is a plant based silicic dioxide and doesn't effect pH. So you want to add this last because that's the reason you buy that...

Oh man, Do NOT add bleach?!?! you need to brew some EWC tea asap, use the Hiesenburg Tut. Sterile rezs are a hoax. Don't use UC Roots with the tea (don't use it at all, ever actually).
