    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    lol i love this one plant in a coke bottle. It's an original mother plant that ended up runty cause it's pot mate was much larger much faster. Poor little bugger got rootbound. I retired that mother a little while ago and repotted this plant into it's coke bottle home. I found it room in the...

    Interested in aeroponics....

    1. 1 minute on 5 minutes off is the best timer setting. A timer that can manage that will cost 90 bucks. I have a diy aero and i've run both 30 mins on 1hr off and 30 mins on 30 mins off using cheap HD timers and it will work just fine. 2. You need hydro nutes. Big choice is organic or...

    pre flowers..?? how come

    if your plant is still in its veg stage you can clone with no worries. Plants in flower can still be coned but depending on the strain it may be a big hassle. They aren't in flower until you put them on 12/12 lighting, unless you paid a lot for autoflowering genetics. Some pics of them would...

    Aero Lid Leaking - How to fix?

    all these other suggestions aside, i have the same problem and the quickest cheapest solution. I had some plastic sheeting, like vapor barrier or paint drop cloth (even large garbage bags). Cut two equal rectangles out of it, both are about a foot wider then my res on all sides. Then cover the...

    pre flowers..?? how come

    they will put out preflowers when they are naturally mature enough to begin budding. You may also see the branches growing from the nodes go from being symetrical to asymetrical growth. The female preflower is a little cone with two tiny hairs coming out the top. If you are seeing these then...

    how much hydrogen peroxide should i use

    you can add 1.7ml of 35%/ L of res water at every res change. Then, every 2-3 days add 1ml/L. Don't use the 3% stuff from a grocery store. I have found peroxide deals with bacteria better then algea, i still end up with algea on the airstones and arround the top of the res if any light is...

    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    plants looking great today. Can't wait to start seeing real flowers come out. The damn things are huge, they range between 8 and 20 inches tall, so i have a "good" spread to see what height i need to aim for in the future to get a harvest i can work with. I'm worried about the stretch cause one...

    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    plants look good today, 20 inches tallest plant. I rearranged the lighting and ducting for the final FINAL time today, so that the light can be in it's final flowering position at the top of the cab. The 20 inch plant was showing leaf curling again due to heat stress, so the light had to go up...

    First time aeroponic grow journal

    if you want to experiment then you can try putting clones directly into hydroton and running your cloning cycle with the pump. I'm doing clones directly in hyroton bubbler dwc and it has worked swimmingly

    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    ok so the largest plants are pushing 16-18 inches, need to flower lol. The swap over to 30on/off seems to have increased the growth of the plants if i were to be comepletely honest. Now that they have a large root mass i guess they can probably uptake more. Some of the sickening dwc clones were...

    First time aeroponic grow journal

    if i were rockwool cloning then i would get 1-2 inch cubes depending on clone size. Then, soak them in water ph'd to 5.8 and sterilized with 1ml/l 30% h202. Then use a salad spinner to get cubes moist but no soaking; squeezing them ruins all the little air pockets in the rockwool. Then get ur...

    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    day 26 hydroton clones, 7/14 showing roots. The HPS vegging plants look great, i have swapped over to 30 on 30 off on my timer since the rootmass is so large. They are going going into flower on wednesday, and then we can start the harvest countdown! Im thinking 54 days till harvest from today...

    Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

    i've read only one thread from a guy who actually built his own. As far as i remember it still cost him 600 bucks or so, because led components are just not cheap. I investigated a diy led solution, but it seemed to expensive and experimental. On the other hand, if i could swap out my 400w HPS...

    First DIY stealth aeroponic cabinet grow, SOG

    tallest now pushing 16 inches. I know that that clone was the tallest to start with, it was about 3-4 inches long, the others were smaller. So 4 inch clones will veg to the size i need in 30 days under hps. under cfl we'll have to see i guess lol.

    well it would keep it colder longer but no, your temps are so high unfortunately that i don't think it would help enough. A chiller off ebay is an option, you can also diy one if you feel up to it from either a dorm fridge or from a small water cooler, both for 100 bucks or under usually.
