The idea of the on off, food, and plain water is so that salts dont build up..

When you put nutes in your water, and the water dries up, your left with salts.... when you water with fresh water, the fresh water absorbs the salt, and the excess nutes are taken up with the water...

so yeah 8) Technically they do get food with every water, just in varying amounts.

Oh cool! I didn't think about the fresh waterings picking up the left over salts. Yeah I'm gonna flush twice this run and I didnt feed in veg so I should have some really clean herb.

Yes, this is also the reasoning behind flushing


When you flush, water the soil until it is moist throughout... wait 10-30 minutes, THEN come and really run some water though the pot.. by letting the soil soak you are letting the dissolved salts to get absorbed into the water... the water that will get flushed out.

Then your letting your plant use excess nutrients throughout itself, rather than going for the salts.

I will take more pictures to show you guys what I am doing. But it is a Electric Fruit Punch and LSD grow. I will post more pics and specs. This pic was taken March 23rd 2011 at Day 8 being in the temporary soil cups. This grow will be a Fox Farms soil, and I am almost certain we will be retrofitting/converting the tent to accommodate our home made Aeroponic set up. After reading this post about his Aero Purple Cindy grow... me and the bf looked at each other and said lets build one of these!!! Check it out!

What up everyone, I got a 24x36x62in tent I'm using to grow 1-Master Kush and 1-auto Blue Mystic. Right now I got the BM drowning in a bucket. I plan to put the 2-MK in the tent when the BM is done drowning. Here's some pics of my tent and girls...................


This my tent with a 150w HPS light and Joni (BM) when she was young,

We've been talking and planning all day today. Gonna complete this "soil grow" and while it is happening bf will be building our Aero-Ponic system that will fit inside the tent with the resivoirs outside to keep the water cool! Can't wait the new Aero system is going to be ahhh "tits", I guess I should say!

I chose a 600 watt dim-able system for my 78" x 78" x 78" tent that does Metal and Sodium bulbs. I also have a 35 watt 6400k curly-cue small fluro light for seedlings and clones.
