consensus seems to be getter a bigger one! Anyones thoughts on inside tent vs outside?

just a small 1.2 x1.2 with 4 pots. reaching 70 - 80 which is surprising after a heavy defoliation!

Hi All, Wanted some advice here. Dont remember this being a problem before but seem to be fighting a high humidity battle and im not winning! I dont have the best extraction and so there is a bit of circulation going on which im sure doesnt help. I've bought a dehumidifier which helps a bit...

back again! ive noticed that over the week i see the EC go down, assume because the'yre eating the food. if i top this up to keep the desired EC level i can see signs of nute burn but couldn't before. is this normal? Is it better to let the EC go down through the week and then start again...

Might sound silly but just wondered what people tend to do with the large tank that auto fills the main RDWC system. Do you fill with the same solution strength thats in the main system? or something a little weaker and adjust the system on the fly? Does anyone just use it for water and then...

Thanks that’s really helpful and will make note of that chart. I would definitely need RO to do that as I’m at 0.6 from the tap.

That’s good to hear. I was more wondering about overwatering though

Hi again - you mention half a cup a day roughly but I’m really nervous of over watering. If the cube is still damp does that mean it’s ok not to water or not necessarily? They’re certainly not soaking wet. It’s hard to gauge this one tbh. Maybe they do need watering as they need fresh food...

While I’m on here - regarding EC. I keep hearing two conflicting strengths. There are food charts that suggest starting around 1.1 and moving up at intervals. There are also people on here and other charts I’ve seen that suggest about half that. Could a few people comment on this matter so...

Ok thanks - I have a plan for the next week and expecting it to work! Will feedback then. Cheers

Thanks

Just checked and the leaf tips are all curling down a bit. I’ve turned the air stone pump off for now so that the pots can dry out a bit. Seems to keep it all very moist even when the water is well below the bottom of the net pot. Anyone know of a brand of air pump that’s quiet? So noisy that...

It’s quite hard to say as I have many in different states. As it was my first time dwc I kicked off quite a few seeds and left them in the propagator throughout. If one of the net pot transfers failed then I could bring a healthy one in from the propagator. What are your thoughts on the need...

Yeah although they’re just not growing any roots. After the initial one or two peaking through and then being moved to the net pot they just stop root growth. I tried moving one that had developed much more and had many roots showing around the cube but that did the same. Just doesn’t take to...

Yes sorry it’s RDWC. Really struggling after moving to the net pots. Tried one technique of raising the water and lettting them sit just above the bubbles for a couple weeks and no real action or anything positive. Some died. EC was high at 1.1 but also they could have been too wet. Having...

Hi Guys, If the EC of the tap water is .6 before nutes would you way a filter is 100% needed? I’m adding hardly any which takes it up to .8 which is still probably too high for where they’re at. Currently trying to see why they don’t seem to be taking to the net pot well and I think it’s...

Yeah I don’t like the stuff. Are the RR PLUGS better at not getting too wet?

Thanks - what EC is the solution under them/being poured on daily?

Actually it does seem like it should be nearer 0.7 youre right

could you let me know how much you top fed them roughly? I know there are alot of variables but roughly how many ml in how many days would be useful as a benchmark. thanks
