i have been using soil for years but am always having problems with my ph screwed up. iv been using a aeroponic cloner for a while now so built a cheap bubbleponics system and am about to start using it.
want to do a sea of green with little to know veg.
3gal tub that i put a little under 3 gallons of water in it.
i have general hydroponics fertilizer. i have some jacks classics and cal mag on hand too.
res temp stays at 72 all day
1 air stone with pump.
air temp in room is 72 to 75 degrees
30% humidity
- i have my air pump siting at same height as tub but i put the air hose over the light. if power goes out will it fill up with water?
- my clones roots are about this long. is this long enough to put in bubbleponics or should i wait a little longer?
- my aeroponics system i just use tap water and rooting gel. i have had around 99% success with clones. my tap water ph is low 7 to high 7. i have gh ph up and down. what ph do you recommend for bubbleponics? im using a gh color drops and some pool test strips to test ph so its not the most accurate.
- dont have a ppm meter but the test strips have a total ppm from 250 to 1000. whats my best rout to keeping this under control?
any advice or ideas i would appreciate.
oh yeah that plant next to the bubbleponics system looks like hell. i have had so many problems with it. started off with bugs and once the bugs were gone my ph was all screwed up. ph is at a 8 from what i know but dont have the best way to test soil ph correctly. used some orchid fertilizer yesterday to lower ph. looked a little better today. time will tell. any ideas how to get that back to normal would be appreciated.
