Great thread NewGrowth, +rep. I just saw your post on ppm levels and the up and down rise. I'm new to hydro and had been thinking about how that could be read. If it would be telling me about how it likes the nute levels. And how to adjust the ppm levels to try to hit the sweet spot. But I'm guessing that spot will change through the course of the plants life and will have to be adjusted along the way. Great job on this thread.

I have 5 plants that are flowering now and on day 45... how long should you keep them on 12/12 ?? I bought a pack 10 random feminized seeds so im not sure what the strain is.. they are on an ebb and flow w/ a 250hps light... I just switched the water to nute free to flush the plant... should i add nutes for another week or so... I need a little help... thanks...

Hydro shop is really the only other place I could think of.
Now they stay on 12/12 until flowering is done and you harvest
Hard to tell when you should do your flush would have to see pictures and see how ripe your buds are.

O.k. I finally took some pic's of the space i want to use its small and was wondering what would be the best for me to use and if its even possible in such a lil space The measurements are as follows
Depth: 23 1/4"
Length: 51 3/4"
Height: 23 1/2"
and here's some pics
Any and all help wanted from lighting to dro set up or pots just let me know ill make it how you guys tell me but most of all i want New Grow help thanks ery body lol

Newgrowth,
what size water pump do i need? im pumping water into a manifold that is kind of a grid thats about 6' long and would be three sections wide(as in sort of a honeycomb grid) of the 1/2" pvc...hope im explaining it well enough...it will aslo have to pump it up lets say 3ish feet..from a 5gal bucket or similar tub.

Nice dude. Good looks
I would use flouro's in such a small space it can be very difficult to control heat. T5's would probably be good you could put a couple on the back wall as well.O.k.

If you want to do hydro a DWC set-up would probably be best for that small space. Simple to build as well. Check out Wolfmanzen's perpetual locker he did a lot with a an even smaller space.
When you buy a pump they should tell you the Max head pressure rating. This will be the maximum height that the pump can effectively work. For what you are talking about you would be safest going with a pump with at least a 6ft head rating.
Also when you check the Max head pressure take into account pipe diameter. Some pumps will list had rating for 1\8th " others 1\4" some will list for 1\2".

One plant per square foot in SOG, sometimes more with good lighting

I have a question, Im using AN 3-part grow, micro, and bloom. I have a 70 gallon res and a 4x4 flood table that I flood 3 x's when lights on for a period of 12 mins. How much grow, micro and bloom exactly should I be using? Or what ration should I use them?Attachments

Hey Guys....thanks ahead of time for all the info!!! I'm a first time grower, starting dwc system in 3 gallon buckets...all from seeds and under 1 600W hps after they sprout. I'm using Technaflora Plant Products Recipe for Success....supposed to be everything I need for each stage of growth for my babies. First, have you heard of or used this product, have any recommendations about it? Second, i followed the directions EXACTLY but I still want to make sure my solution is safe for the seedlings. What should the optimum pH level be? I just checked mine and it was 7.2. Also, if I'm using this supposedly "dummy proof" kit for nutes, and following the directions exactly, do I still need to check my ppm?? I don't have any kind of a meter for that....what would you recommend? (I'm using a simple test tube aquarium kit for my pH test).
Thanks so much for any help!
