    brown/copper spots on leaves

    That's a PH fluctuation problem. I keep my soil PH at 6.5 and my hydro PH at 5.8. Works great for me. But always add your nutes to the water first, then PH the solution, and then check ppm. Adjusting PH will change the ppm count as well. So PH to optimum number for your medium and test your ppm...

    Bubbleponics Nutrient Solution Question/Fox Farm Feeding schedule

    You have to be careful by not changing out your nutrient solution. As the plants uptake nutrients they use some nutes more than others. So you can add nutrients to raise your ppm level but you still end up having nutrient defficiencies. Say you start off your tank at 320 ppm with all your...

    Veterans...Get the hell in here now!

    Yes, but without military wives and spouses we wouldn't have a military. And you're just as tied to the military as your spouse is. I don't think you give yourself enough credit. It's a tough job what you do. And I thank you for your service and sacrifice as well...

    Veterans...Get the hell in here now!

    It was an honor to serve. I'd do it again even at my age if they would let me. lol. The 10th was a top notch unit. I really enjoyed my four years there. If I ever had to go back to combat it's the 10th I would trust my life to. The "Currahee" battalion in Korea That I was with was pretty top...

    Than you... I've been out for a little while now. I was turning in my gear the day the planes hit the twin towers. My ETS date was Sept 29, 2001...

    I I agree with Doc... That's not light burn. It's Iron deficiency. Throw away the calmag and simply use molasses. You won't have any more problems.

    "Attention" Please Read Help Save My Crop

    You can also use Grandmas molasses or Blackstrap molasses as a supplement for that. Just heat up a little water and mix 1tsp molasses per gallon of water. The molasses is high in calcium, magnesium and iron. Also, save yourself a lot of trouble with root problems and add some Hydroguard to your...

    Yellow roots in DWC

    It's mostly the small things that have the biggest payoff in the end.

    Yellow roots in DWC

    It helps me as well to make sure the nutrient solution is flowing across the entire surface of the cube. I've found it also helps to increase DO levels. Just to throw that out there...

    More DO... More better :o)

    Yellow roots in DWC

    Yeah, I would think so. They don't yet have the root structure to draw a lot of water for transportation. So it could do damage. But with taller plants it works great to bend into a little eddy and direct your water flow into. And let it run off onto the cube. My plants perk up quick doing that.

    Yellow roots in DWC

    I've never had a problem with it. But I'm not using it to reflect light. I'm using it to puddle the nutrient solution into before it flows into the cubes. If you increase the surface area of the water that comes into contact with the surround air it picks up more oxygen and helps to raise my DO...

    The Worst Strains to Grow

    I can always tell if my PH is off or my PPM is getting low just by looking at the gsm. The Indicas don't show a sign at all. So I use that to my advantage. It's like my early warning PH/PPM meter. lol

    The Worst Strains to Grow

    I don't know about garbage weed but from a growers standpoint.... gsc's flowering stretch really sucks. Hard to get those nodes to fill in which drastically cuts down on yield IMO. And from my experience growing gsc she's pretty finicky. Easy to bite burn and easily shows signs of PH...

    Wow, that's crazy! Not even any side branching. Looks like a waste of time and good nutes. lol

    Yellow roots in DWC

    I know I've had clay dust from my pellets even collecting on the tin foil I have around my baskets if the nutrients solution stream is flowing across it. But it's never colored my roots. I use two large cylinder air stones and every time I change my res water once a week I add a tsp of...
