i clone in a bubbler cloner and then transplant to hydroton when roots are showing good growth. i recently tried just cutting a clone and sticking it into hydroton. i made sure the stem was low in the pot, like almost touching the bottom and it rooted within two weeks. a little slower then...

lol wow good point. teach me to smoke and think.

im at page 207 reading this... i just had a crazy idea about the timer issue. as of page 207 and i think still now there is no cheap alternative. i have a timer that will do 30 min on/off intervals that i bought at home depot. I find it works, but i'd like to feed for less time. running two...

shouldn't be a problem man, it should be mentioned that you smoke in that room and thus the faint, even occasional strong odour of pot wont really matter. You'll only have what, 4 plants a t a time in their? 6? in terms of who it stealthed from wont you get owned by the visual more then the...

allright so figure i should update. ill get some pics of my successful buds up here at some point. day 36 of flowering, and my plants have finally recovered from their major pythium infection. They are all covered in bud, the tallest plant has developed a 3 inch cola, the others are mostly just...

wow. i have the planer but now u can't have it. u must pay for that pun

with cfl you shouldn't have too much of a problem because the light has no intensity after a few inches. You can use black carbon filter in layers over the holes, or use reflectix to build a vent cover to reflect the light away. The way that the light fucks with the flowering is there is a...

no way will it burn. I have my 400w cooltube touching reflectix and it is fine and it gets much hotter then a cfl ever could. as soon as you have power going in you should get a smoke alarm just in case for right above the closet.

many people shy against squeezing rockwool cubes because it collapses all the microscopic holes inside. Use a salad spinner to get the excess water out of them next time :)

been on 12/12 for 4 days now, and im seeing bud development all over the stems of my hydro plants. The plants aren't as tall as i'd hoped, but i need to flower them to get my cycle going, so i'm hoping they will all reach 10-15 inches- i've allready seen the leaves stop developping and the stems...

hey another sparse update. my clones are plants. all are exhibiting new growth and the tallest is 6 inches tall now. They all have developed root systems and are doing well. Ive had lots of problems with bacteria int he res. mostly resolved that by really keeping the res temp low and adding...

alright, so this is first update in a while. The aero system is in full use; i have 14 rooted clones currently getting used to their new home under the 400w hps light in the aero tub. Using 20/20/20 hydro nutes and 3% h202 at 17ml/l. They are doing great, seeing lots of root growth. Some...

do you have a ppm meter? cause you can just decide on your ppm and then monitor your res. Feed whenever it has dropped noticably, and try and maintain a somewhat steady level increasing the ppm slowly over time to see what the plants like.

sick. amazing. keep it up. i'll be watching, as should everyone, everywhere.

i have a place near me called lee valley tools that will sell one. the internet isanother good source if you can wait. So i moved the clones to the main system 6 days ago. Only four have survived the transplant. I know why. First, the clones were all too small. I first timed myself here, and...

lol. c02 clearly works. even in small scale. it's just difficult and expensive to do it right to see the ideal increase that it can give. do what works for you. just research and make up your own mind lol.

can't hurt and can be essentially free. for some people it seems to help. don't be so negative

that's another hotly debated topic in the world of aero. personally, i think that letting the roots hang in moist air probably does give you a good ammount of benefit, so im going to be getting 15 min timer and running 15 min on 15 min off. If i had 80 bucks i get a one minute on 5 off timer...

update, root growth on the clones in the bubbler is looking good, taking two of the airstones out has not affected growth. Ill be moving them in the next day or two as soon as i figure out this res temp problem. One of the two clones in the main system wasn't low enough in the hydroton and died...

mostly i just want to see if i can get my harvest down to once a month. I have a three chambered grow cab, and only one chamber is lit by an hps, so one chamber for clone/rooting on 24/7 cfl. one on 12/12 cfl and one on 12/12 hps. In this cycle all plants will be 75 -90 days old when they...
