I say 24/7. I have been having very good results with doing it this way. And I think that I am still very new to hydro.

If you are talking about the organic MG soil, check the built in fert level. From what i remember the seed starter has the lowest ferts. If it is as low as the SS soil, just feed water to give it a good flushing and switch to foxfarm after a week or so.

Which soil did you start with? I had all my grows in MG seed starting soil, perlite, and moss. If you did the flush between veg and flower stage you can add the MG bloom booster to it and it will be fine. Just start off with the ferts at about 1/4 strength to get the plant started. Then work...

I will have to keep an eye out for this. I am starting my first DWC now.

I have seen it in several of Roseman's threads that he has 3 plants in each bucket. So I am just following along with him. I don't see there being a problem with the roots. I have seen where people have to trim the root ball bc it gets very big. I will be monitoring the water levels on a daily...

Ok. I looked into the pump I have. It is only 3.5 watts. I am going to be returning it this weekend, and getting the 80 gallon pump that is rated to 7.0 watts.

Thanks for the replies. I will look into the wattage of my pump. If it is to small I will return it and get a larger one. I will keep you posted.

Looks like I may just be using one 5 gallon bucket for now. I may make a ten or 15 gallon out of a rubbermaid instead. Not as many seed germed as I would have liked. I think I should be ok with the 40 gallon pump and the 8 cfls I have to start. Using 6 6500k 26watt bulbs and 2 23watt 2700k for...

This will be the first time I use DWC. I have done a lot of reading on this. I have found that MOST people say that you should use a pump that is rated to 4 times the size of your need. On to the question. I have a pump rated for a 40 gallon tank. Would this be enough for me to pump air into 2...

Just purchased this kit. Going to be using this setup for the time. It will also be the first time I do the bubble setup. Figured I would test out a cheaper kit before I go on to more expensive ferts. So far I have had good luck with soil grows and cheap MG ferts.

Do the pots have good drainage. The top of the soil may be dry, but the bottom of the roots may be under water. By the way subscribed.

I have never had a problem doing it. Most of the time that I transplant, the root ball is holding the soil together. So i just put it in the new pot and add soil around it. I never disturb the original root ball. Just add around it to make it as easy as possible on the plant. The I lower the...

Just a piece of advice for you. I have done a few grows using MG ferts and soils. I would be a good idea to go with either a 10 or 12 inch pot. I never had enough room for the roots in the 8 inch pot. Always had to transplant them about a month before they were done. I have noticed that the...

The Fan leaf thing was something i read in a book. It showed that there were positives to removing fan leaves just before the harvest. It said that if you trimmed them, it made the flush more effective. It would make it easier to have the chemicals come out since the plant has the bare minimum...

I am coming up on the end of my first grow. I have done a large amount of research and I should be at the point where I start to flush out the nutes. So I just started to use water only. Let me know what you guys think.

That same one is on ebay.

I think I will do just that.:bigjoint: I have to learn that program better. Not to bad for the first time using it.

I have to agree with the rest. I am very interested is seeing how this turns out. I have seen this work for tomatoes.

Walmart has 6500k 26w bulbs for about $10 for a 2 pack.

I love sex either way, But i have to say it does seem better while high.
