    Guidance Needed For My Hydroponic System

    Sorry..... just saw one of your 1st questions. Now that I've seen the system you have, I can only say that you would need to see what they say 'bout changin' pots. Sounds like to much trouble to me. I plan on either just changing bulb temps... or having 2 rooms. book: "Marijuana New...

    BB & SSH Hydro Grow

    Moving the light away will just make the stem weaker. move light closer-keeping an eye out on temps, and cut to 18 hrs. And you do have ph control. First your water/nuets. Then you can always check your soil. *** sorry... I'm baked and did not realize I was looking at an older post.....

    Any input on my plant would be great 1st time!!

    Yellerz is right. Need more info, but from the hip....... You need more light (watts/or closer) and it would help to know 'bout soil makeup. I am willing to bet she is lacking nurtrients needed for veg. state. But you need to tell us more.

    organic wick system?

    I am trying the same thing. I use coconut fiber. gravel and potting soil normally. Want to try Hydro, so as I change over i'm experimenting. In my pots I have 4 or more 3/8 wicks in place. I can adjust how much the girls get. Later I will go soil free.
