    First time ever grower wants to do hydro ...

    From what I have read ice really only works for peak temp issues like a spike in temp during summer that will last a week. Icing a dwc every 4-6 hours for 16 weeks takes more discipline than I have.

    My tent is so small and with the panel that goes in it the placement is predetermined. I am cramming them in and they are very close. Btw you are going to get your temps down and stable in the 65-68f range. Not only to prevent rot but for oxygenation of the solution.

    It depends. If you are using a lux meter and are converting it to that value via one of a few apps then it is important to ensure the correct spectrum selection. I have a BT tool like about everyone. I uaed this app to verify the loss of light at the edges and the hot spot in the middle. It...

    If your base ppm is 400 and your nute mix is 300 your ppm total is 700. Now some things that will make the numbers move. Hydroguard added to a dwc that has biological material that it will eat and can produce nutes that drive up ec/ppm. Some types of ph adjusters can have the same effect...

    Are you going to run a chiller? Even with wrap the buckets will reach tent temp without a chiller. I wrapped the same way for light even with the panel in place.

    sticky traps for insect identification and elimination. my cold tap was 300 ppm but my first mix was with warm water from the hot side that had a base ppm of over 700. When I adjusted nutes on the second bucket fill I again subtracted 750 ppm and it was real low so i added till it said 300ppm...

    What game are you playing

    Sounds brutal. My never got through game was F-16 combat pilot. It came on 3 hd 5 1/4 disks. For those of you who never had to load multiple disk games on your PC and run a boot disk ( saves resources) well your welcome. A whole generation of pong players took that bullet so you could blow on a...

    Listen all y'all it's sabotage!!

    In Ohio as Adult Use lets you keep plants legal and stuff this would be an actionable offense of Vandalism or Criminal Mischief. Can get sanctions but to get money you would need to file a lawsuit. In Ohio small claims court judgements are a joke. Unless they are well off and do not want to deal...

    Just blew up a 3590 because i got too baked and tried to wire stuff.

    I can add to the sadness I would never laugh at buzzwork mistakes. Life lessons should be painful and/or cost money. Acura Integra overheat send the head out for checking. Did not expect head back and" customer" shows up with it and some killer weed Saturday morning. Blazed up and did the type...

    Outside for access for filling and checking water level and ph. Even with a ph monitor you will want to verify with a good meter and check calibration weekly. Are you running a chiller for the solution?
