Letme help you decide, I use to grow soil and loved it hydro always seemed like more work or too difficult. well now I dont know what I was thinking, I bought this water farm and it is so simple and I have more control then I ever had with soil. I say you buy a waterfarm and give it a go.

they are pretty cheap too, even the starter kit that has nutes and stuff is only 80 bucks or so.

Yeah cant go wrong all I would recomend is drilling a ton more 1/4" holes in the top bucket to let them roots get down in the lower res.. waterfarms make MJ happy.
 
Yeah. I got it as this months promo. The other promo seeds match Jorge Cervantes's books on "quality seeds" but not the PE Feminized, which looks like it would be nothing but "trouble" according to the pictures of what a low quality seed looks like.

Other people have mentioned of their PE seeds being the same color as mine, checkout this https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/373039-attitude-october-promo-droped-blueberry-19.html forum.

So, not sure what the seed is "supposed" to look like.

Mine are somwhat pale or greyish in color there fine. Like a book, you cant judge a seed just by looking at them.. if there white like white paper then there no good but long as they have a greyish tint to them there perfectly fine.. I have a few strains like this C-99 for instance has the same look to them Ive never had a problem with germination or growth.. the plant you see in this growlog came from a greyish color seed.

What a great read..was hesitant on going Hydro but feel a little more confident on starting one via these waterfarms. I've got a 400w CMH and will put it to use with the waterfarm. I didn't notice any mutant growth as CMH seems to excellerate cell division. Its recommended to add a Silica agent to aid in this rapid growth. Got all my strains and just waitin on my Landlord to leave for warm weather in January..

i saw that about the silica as well i figured i wouldnt worry about it since it appeared Scottyballs had great success without it.

@ T.M.B. I use the hanna 98129 combo meter (pH, EC, ppm) and if you follow Scotty's grow exactly all you need to use is the pH and ppm. On the blue drain tube, there is a white line and that white line represents the approximate 2 gallon water mark.Scotty also recommended that if you do use your tap water to make sure it's below 215ppm, but I've heard of people using higher ppm's with no problems. If you do go the tap water route, get a 5 gallon bucket and either add an airstone or let it sit for 24 hours before using it. Hope this helps.
