    Advantages of ebb and flow over aeroponics

    I was thinking I should have kept the screen that came with the shower drain lol. I will try hanging a fine mesh on the bottom of the drain and see what happens. I cant get the lid up in the upper tray at all now just no play in the roots. Some sort of false bottom perhaps??? I just may go back...

    Advantages of ebb and flow over aeroponics

    40 years lol. But in water for only 3 years. As for clones I havent found a plant that I want to clone yet, still searching lol. But I do run the same strain when comparing variables. Not a true scientific comparison but tells me enough to know ya or nay! I can tell enough with the trays to know...

    It was shit lol but ya I figured it would be a good one!!! Nope, into the bho pile!!! OP may want to do an auto next time as you should get more than a photo in the same time frame but again strain dependant.

    Flowering, strain dependant may take a lot longer than 8 weeks as well lol. Just had a strain take 115 days to finish, it sucked lol.

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    Do I smell a sales person? It is a pretty impressive light non the less. Our town is replacing a few HID's with induction types so it'll be interesting in 5 years to compare costs!

    Has anyone used a AIT Air Injection Technology "The Spider" Airstone?

    Looks good Alpha! I guess the next step is will it plug up? As C$, I'm by no means an experienced grower but before switching to sprayers I introduced DO into the water by basically creating a fountain in the upper res. The water would hit the too of the res and splash all over the place. There...

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    "A 900w rocket plasma runs 1 amp on a 240v circuit with a full spectrum bulb that is good for 20 years and never needs to be changed" Are you sure about this? You may want to check the specs again. 900 watts is 900 watts, 3.9 amps i believe but may be missing something here. If it uses a quarter...

    Advantages of ebb and flow over aeroponics

    Thats the plan! As I said I was pretty happy with my previous nutes but the flakes are doing better so yes I will keep looking. The flakes are $49 for a litre of a + b which is almost 4x the price of what I've been using lol. My grows are on the quick schedule with 20-30 day veg from seed and...

    curious about enhancing plant flavors...

    Thanks! Not an issue yet as sprayers are fine and res is dark. May need to stick an air stone in bottom res if it becomes an issue. My spray manifold is 3" off the bottom and roots still entangled it but again sprayers are doing fine and there's lots lol.

    I would use both, not sure about why you would need nutes at this stage but I dont do soil. Maybe Im missing something??

    Advantages of ebb and flow over aeroponics

    Wow, lots of stuff here that baffles me. I have built many different systems over the last few years and just not seeing what you guys are with the difference between the two. I think the terminology is the first issue. True aero is not a fountain pump and sprayers, which is what I run. True...

    curious about enhancing plant flavors...

    I know we are getting off topic but I'm going to have issues real soon I fear. First time using sprayers and have a few design issues! Roots are starting to drop down into (totes) main res. I'm not sure how this is going to turn out as I'm only 2 weeks into flower. Also my roots coming out...

    I am paying far to much for power,what can i do to pay less?

    I tried it a few years ago but cant remember if it effected yield that much. I had just started hydro so pretty hard to judge effects of light versus me lol.
