    Hydro vs soil {re. potency difference}

    Well I stand corrected lol. The RIU poll must surely be a true representation of the ops question. I truly believe that in a blind sampling of two clones side by side it would be hard to tell. I think that lots just assume organic taste better. Again this is only my take on this subject. And...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    My first one was an oakton pen, lasted one year. It was that tech who suggested the hot water soak.

    Superstoner's new 3 rail, 50gal system, 36-40oz every 2 weeks.

    He just said fuck it I think :o, dont blame him, why bother. This site had turned from bad to out of control. Bunch of basement trolls, that pounce in anyone that is a newb or thinks differently and likes to try new stuff. Almost had it to but just hangin to watch the train wrecks.

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    ^^^^ seen lots of people post "jee I store it distilled water and its broke" lol. Also not sure if it works but tech at one of the companies told me it may come back if you let it sit in very hot water overnight till water cools. Tried it and it still was fucked! Blue lab does back there product...

    Plants won't take nutrientd

    Newb here but at 5.5 weeks should they not still be kinda green, i guess strain has to be considered. Looks to me (cant stress newb enough) like a bit of nitrogen may help.

    Lets Debunk Advanced Nutrients Once and For All, A Guide For Every Noob.

    I agree that is not top shelf lol. But everyone is always arguing the point that cheap nutes will grow pot. If this guys telling the truth.......it is the internet lol. Then case in point, cheap nutes grow pot :o. And even a newb can grow it with cheap nutes.......real cheap :o. Ugly looking but...

    Hydro vs soil {re. potency difference}

    Genetics plays a part but I do enjoy properly grown hydro bud more, just my opinion and only based on my grows. Probably if put to the test I could not tell the difference lol. And yup your asking a question that will get you many different opinions. Much like any questions asked here. As for...

    What are you using for base water re: RO, ppm's, etc. does it keep ph stable. What ec r you running in flower?

    how bad is hard water?

    As most have said your water is to hard to be conductive (hahaha) for a great grow and you will struggle. I have no way to get RO filter in my shed so I plod along tweaking things. I have found that different nutes produce different results but have not tried many in my short hydro life. Having...

    how bad is hard water?

    Been there done that. Had to add down on a daily basis and mine is 200 ppm's but high in calcium. The other issue was mag lockout

    Nutrient choices

    Sorry meant to add I have used the superior since the beginning but wanted to try new stuff. The HG kept the ph way more steady I believe (cant remember one run to the next) I'll check my diary :)

    Nutrient choices

    The latest run has been a run of change lol. I converted my totes from flood and drain (kind of lol) to low pressure nozzles (fake areo :o). Also started running H&G Aqua Flakes with very good results. I'm 30ish days in to flower and I notice that the buds are not really packing it on. The...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    Well seeings how this has become more about nutes than plant torturing what are thoughts about botanicare power flower nutes (believe thats what they're called). Just stopped at the one and only hydro store left here and they have 5, 1 gallon jugs of the stuff for $20 each. Was gonna try it as I...

    Paper towel to hydroton?? - Flood and Drain

    "and when watering you could wash your seed down to the bottom of the container of hydroton before it has a chance to root." Yes dont do that lol. I directed my nozzles at the net pot and cycled continuos till roots showed then turned it to 15 on 15 off. But yes as stated if watering be very...

    Paper towel to hydroton?? - Flood and Drain

    I think with clones that have established roots would do great. The thing that I had issues with were placing the tap rooted seed into a location in the hydroton, I bought, I think it was like 20 lb bag, its big lol. The pellits are the larger size so they kinda suck. Again they are doing ok

    Paper towel to hydroton?? - Flood and Drain

    I did it on this run. One tray used jiffy pods the other just hydroton. Just put the seedlings in crevices and they did ok. The jiffy pods actually seemed to do better after root formation, but I also used different nutes so not a fair comparison. I have found that the seedlings struggle in rock...
