    Can you put a humidifier right in dry room?

    I've been doing my thing. This is really just a hobby for me anyway. I had a lot of success running rdwc, I just took down my 4x8 tent and am only working with my 4x4 because I grew a bunch and didn't need to keep going cycle after cycle. I've been breeding different strains and to be honest...

    Who's Got The Fostiest Buds? Let's See How Frosty A Bud Can Really Get?

    My original Blue Power (sour dub pheno) from the 1st cup in Denver from a long time ago. I lost her for a couple years, got her back out of nowhere, random contact. Same one in my signature. Very special girl. Christmas will be day 56. Going to let her go to 60. This is my favorite strain ever...

    Can you put a humidifier right in dry room?

    It's been awhile man. If I want to add to the dry time I let them hang dry in whatever humidity is in the room. Typically like 20% or less. After 48-72 hrs, the outside is kinda crispy so I put them loosely in a tub with the lid either on all the way, slightly cracked, sitting on top, etc. to...

    I havn't been here for quite some time, but saw your post and had to login. I found my original blue power #3 which is a straight sour dub pheno,or I should really say it found me. I started it back in 2012, thought it was lost and gone forever. Never seen anything like it since. Low and behold...

    Make $2200 worth of "Clear Rez" for $4 !!!

    Just finished a 12 week cycle in my rdwc system. First time running pool shock for me. Results were great. Worked better for me than hydroguard. Using a rdwc system w/ a chiller. I have HTH shock from walmart. 1 gram powder to 1 gal water Once you have your 'solution' I add 5ml per gal. When I...

    Opinion poll on nutrient strength.

    I've been running lucas for quite awhile now in a rdwc system. Literally just finished a cycle, cut them today. But anyway, I always run about 400 ppm, so .8ec. That's just what the seem to like in my system. If you use ro water, use some calmag which has some nitrogen in there too. With lucas...

    I didn't do a journal on these. I had 3 females and they all look the same. It smells like berries and has a nice taste as well. Nice uplifting strain. I'll run her again. I have a couple blue power's I'm running right now, just put them in the flower tent. I really like that strain as well...

    2 BIG BUD Ladies_RDWC_First Time

    Those look great. I can't see the trics, but they don't look like they are ready just yet. I noticed my rdwc system likes to go a few days longer than my soil grows of the same strain. Make sure you scope them good. Most of my rdwc grows go 65-70 days, but then again I do grow more sativa...

    Vacuum sealing in jars

    I've transferred all my horde to vac bags. Had way too many big jars around. I'll never get to it all, but wanted a long terms storage solution too. I like how the vac bags smash everything into a nice brick. Air is the enemy in preservation!

    Questions about a DIY RDWC setup

    I just cut holes below the zipper line of the tent for each pipe/tube. I took careful measurements and made 3 cuts total. 2 pvc and the 3/4 return line. Put some black duct tape around it and sealed it just fine. I used to have the control bucket on the inside of the tent and what a relief to...

    Questions about a DIY RDWC setup

    DIY Undercurrent system. Use square buckets and 2" pipes. No clogged drains, no overflow issues. I change the water once per week and that's pretty much it. The control bucket is on the outside of the tent and it's hooked up to a simple top off rez. Water level stays the same all the time hooked...

    *** RDWC HELP NEEDED *** STRESSED PLANTS DAY 1***

    I'd like to see those roots, how big is the root ball? Is there Any smell to the water at all? Purple stem in the first pic says P deficiency which is odd for a 6.1 ph. I see a little green growth out of the top though. The only time I've experienced anything similar is when I transferred rooted...

    First dwc

    Its's a Ca deficiency. Either you are not adding enough calmag when changing out, or the ph is drifting too high. 5.8 is about the top range for Ca absorption. Might try to bring the ph down a little? Some strains use more Ca than others too. Had a Gogi Og that was a calmag whore.

    DWC: Looser, airier final product?

    I grew a strain of cherry gorilla. Mom seed in soil, clones in hydro. Mom seed was denser, rdwc was fluffier, but equal high. My theory is that strains that like to stretch will stretch even more in dwc, elongating the node spacing making for a fluffier bud. It was quite a big difference in my...

    sexing in perpetual

    Yeah, the are basically kamikaze clones for the good of the fleet. The absolute fastest way to get guaranteed females in a hydro system is to get fem seeds, otherwise it's basically cloning a female. Hard part is finding that female that gives you everything you want.

    sexing in perpetual

    The idea is to take only like 1 or 2 clones from a seedling plant and put those 1 or 2 cuts (from each plant) into 12/12 flower light cycle. In about a week or two, those clone will show pistils or pollen sacks. Now you know what the sex is of the plants still in veg. By this time (1-2 weeks to...
