i am about to set up a 2'x4' flood tray. i will be using 3 gal air pots fill with Hydroton. this is my 1st time going full hydro and i was wondering how many times a day should i flood my clones? during the small veg stage and during flowering when they get their? i know their are allot of condition's but just a basic rule of thumb please?

ive been told to never flood at lights off is this true?

PH whats ideal for flood and drain with Hydroton? i was planing around 5.8-6.0

any advise would be great

Hey man, I am also about to be using the 12.5L air pots. I mix a little bit rockwool cube in also 1/3-1/2 of the medium. Anyways. I would say 4-6 floods a day is a good starting point, but heard of 8 or more, so you'll have to dial that in. Also you may need to top water some of the solution if the cubes/clones roots don't quite reach deep enough yet.

Yes, avoid flooding in the night, it's simply not needed. I don't flood closer than 2 hours to lights out. This is also why I like a touch of rockwool in the mix, helps keep the interior moist over-night.

5.5-6.0 is ideal. A little swing is fine, over 6.0 you start running into problems.

Other tip: wash the shit outta the hydroton. Get it where you think it's clean. Now take a sample, pour some water through (measure the EC before and after). Compare how much it has risen, if it's more then 0.1EC I recommend you wash more.

thanks allot!!

i was thinking about 4 times a day, so every 3hrs in flower.

i am going to veg with a 20/4 light time so should i flood every 5hrs for 5x a day or is that too much for baby clones?

i will be 100% in hydroton

i will rinse the crap out of them..

check out these new air pots i got, i have no clue who makes them? but i think their going to rock for Hydro, very solid and will last forever.

heres is some pics of 1/2 of my harvest, i will finish the other 3 plants tomorrow.. i cut 2 bigger plants and one runt and i have the same left. buds are crazy crazy sticky and very dense more then i thought and maybe the most dense ive grown to date. their was allot less popcorn buds then i thought their was going to be so far maybe about 1.5-2grams?

i wanted to test out the Micro shots on my new camera so a ton of close up's. buds have purple in it and a very nice tint of purps on the frost. very very frosty bud and the smell is very strong fruit smell not really smelling like weed unless you know whats up.

the 1/2 harvest is in paper bags drying right now.
