    Nice Grow. I looked at that exact unit too online, as well as the eco rainforest 66 3x3 would be a good fit. Hate that I can't find anything locally. Still may just do a DIY DWC with bigger baskets as well just cut save some cost and get a nicer light.

    Plants are finally recovering. PH 6.1 Temps good Roots Whitening up PPM is at 650 @ 0.5 scale per my TDS meter btw and that has dropped from 700 yesterday so doesn't that mean plants are eating more nutes than water and need to top off with nutes?

    any thoughts on drip systems like the general hydroponics that are individual drip chambers with 5.7 gallon res? I hear that the drips systems get clogged. So, it sounds like soil is easier but you have to water every few days, I sometimes have to be gone a day or two from the plants, one reason...

    one airstone and not sure of speed of pump but I don't think it's that powerful airstone is 6 inches wide blue. the peroxide did clear the water up nice, this is a small box 18 inched wide, one foot deep and 4 feet high. I think it's just too small a setup and too many things not right. You...

    Yeah that does make sense. A little frustrated because I bought the box and followed instructions and this is how it turned out so I'm going to be sending it back and he's cool with a refund, he can't even figure out why it grows green then turns brown and crispy. I did get the PPM down to 650...

    Really. Wow ok sounds good, I went with the dosing online on grow weed easy that was supposedly half the nutes, but if you had great grows around 700 then I am torching them. I'll have to adjust that right away, I'll check the temp of the water in RES, just not sure I'll be able to adjust that...

    Yes I can see how that would be important, I'm looking at either the 3x3 or 4x4, and I do like the drip or Superponics it seems to keep them looking very healthy. I feel my DWC is limited and the plants just seem dry, but that could be the lack of cal/mag that I have been dealing with, I...

    This is great stuff! Much appreciated! I'll try and push it to two weeks but no further like you said small hydro setup better to change sooner, I wish I could grow outside! Living in condo so must be small and stealth although am considering to get a 3x3 tent and move most of my things to it...

    Got it. I feel like now I have some direction and idea what to do and look for, no matter how much you try and read hard to find your exact problem/setup as others, I just wasn't sure what to do as far as adjust nutes or flush or what. Do you think 340ppm tap is usable growing? Also I have...

    First Time Grow, Newbie, thoughts!?

    Gotcha, I'm going to do a rinse on those roots right now and I agree some light has to be getting in. I tested my tap its 340ppm so that's why I went with distilled because I heard tap can be hard on the plants. Great idea with 20 to 50 percent of old res, that makes sense is such a small res...

    @bobtokes Will do~ @Konassure and @HydroDan That was another concern of mine guys, slightly drooping. Roots ae white but at the top toward the plant cups there is some green algae I just did a flush and new nute mix yesterday. These pics are of right now. Thanks again everyone, so much...

    Thanks a lot, sorry for the pictures in advance. I had my PH at 6.2 but read somewhere that would lock out Phosphorus, and Ideal was 5.5-6.00 will adjust that right away and give it a few days, that's why I needed to finally post to see what the experts felt. Do you feel I need to add more...

    HI everyone! This is my first post, I'm new so be gentle! LOL. I'm in the middle of my first grow, will give details below of setup. I want to start off by saying I've searched many a forum, and links and googled plant issues, and for the life of me, I can't figure out if I have a phosphorus...
