i am going to take some time if need be and put together wtf i am saying.
but just READ THIS please....it answers all yourBS i keep referring to. i was defending you and your use of h2o2 and clearing up some fact i thought to be important. you are getting mine and your conversation with yours and lb's.

i'm gonna go smoke a bowl again.......and then i'll respond to the last post if need be......no, fuck it......it needs be! lol

cleanest res...sure, whitest roots, possibly. but thats not fair cause your res is clear mine is ....idkwtf color mine is but the roots take on a tint. but loveliest.......sir, that is where i draw the line. i will not stand idly by while you call my ladies undercarriage anything other than beautiful.:finger: take that! and now imma have to take a pic of roots......ought to be fun.


lol@gypsy .....i like how your smart assery works......but seriously, passive aggressive people suck. and why am i gettin drug into this? i just wanted to stir the pot a bit....you two are having fun all by yourselves.


can vouch for the sense of humor, and you only knock h2o2 when people are battling some form of rot in the res....i believe you've stated it wont get rid of it all the way.but i digress.

what the gypsy is yammering on about is the part where you go back and forth on it. (it seems) i know better.....its just how the post reads.

h2o2 is in and of itself part of REAL, not RIU organic chemistry. it just so happens to be one of the more volitile nasty corrosive organic substances known to common man.
(for reference sake, i am a chemical operator. take it or leave it fellas)
it is not part of "organic" growing.
this may be PART of where yalls wires are getting crossed.
when h2o2 comes into contact with any other organic (living) substance it breaks it down by oxidizing it wich does in fact kill it. oxydation produces o2 folks, warm or cold....cold holds it better and longer and in higher concentration but thats why we ALL have cold water res's.
not trying to have class. just reading into the questions and seeing how far you two keep getting away from the issue thats confusing the gypsy about your posts. again.....i dont care and you two might not either but this is organic chemistry law. now hygrozyme.....hehehehehehe it worked for me but lots asnd lots of people had problems with it so i quit messing with it, figuring i was lucky. but it is an enzyme and enzymes do feed organisms (good or bad) so where in lies the problem with the poor dirty old hippies postings concerning it.

just curiuos.

ok.....bring it, susan.:bigjoint:.........call my roots not lovely...boy i tell ya

Bro.. there is fault...

this is a discussion..a debate ... and in my opinion has everything to do with SOG growing...

I need to know if what I have been doing is right or not...

I do not have money to waste.. and if I am wasting it.. I need to STOP IT!!!

I believe that I have earned the right to take up a page or two and get to the bottom of it...

I am sorry if this offends anyone.. but I go OUT OF MY WAY to try and help people...

And If I am having difficulty 'getting" something have a lil' patience...

I am not a troll, nor is my intention to fuck anything up...

We all read what gets posted and reply... so post your questions...

And I am sure someone will be able to help...

But I am serious...

You guys might think I am tryong to be funny..

But I am not..

I am dumb as rock..

Now...


..


can Lb or Bugs answer my last question?

Should I, or should I not use 50% h2o2 @ 1ml/L (as per Fuct's recipe) in my op???

Is it a waste of money or not?

it belongs here. use it. and you dont have to second guess. of course it works. but with your climate and water purity your golden man. lb isnt even bashing h2o2....he hates hygrozyme. (whole other issue there) he was saying that with your conditions you dont need it. fuck man....try it without it.....before you run out of it of course. if it isnt still perfect then you have your answer.

and no....to go to your thread is stupid. it would be like going to stinks website and calling his mom a cancerous whore. your cronies would gang up on me and i cant be bothered to care anymore.

THANK YOU!...

I CAN understand exactly what you meant...

and Bugs...

I would NEVER allow anyone to gang up on you..

ESPECIALLY in my house...

Hell, you are more experienced than pretty much EVERYONE there.. save a few of the true masters that com through once in a blue moon...

I would DEFEND YOU, even as you ripped me a new one...

YOU ARE more experienced than I am.. and a certain level of RESPECT is DUE.. regardless of the chain yanking between friends...

But thanks!:clap::clap: you make me sound like some rock star or something...

ALWAYS remember Bugs.. I'm a newb and I know it...:razz:

never doubted you for a moment.

and Bugs...
yes, gypsy?

I would NEVER allow anyone to gang up on you..

well thank you for that. i'm both suprised and impressed and starting to maybe think i read into things too much sometimes. but i'm not alone in thinking you get what seems to be amped up sometimes. but then again so do i .....so fuck it. :mrgreen:

oh, i'm not talking about growing experience. just that if some of your underlings read anyone dispute you they bann together and decide someone is defaming their hero and the onslaught ensues....i will point it out next time they do it if you werent paying attention to that sort of thing. i'm retired so i'm bored.

YOU ARE more experienced than I am.. and a certain level of RESPECT is DUE.. regardless of the chain yanking between friends...
naw...imma newb too.....pure and simple. you know for a fact that i fuck shit up all the time. (this is what i mean btw about your passive aggressive side...but i may have been being overly sensitive. you do have a wicked tongue when you choose so the "english is my 3rd" means squat to me....your intelligent enough to be held accountable.) only a few folks on this site can call themselves masters....and of the ones who can, none do.
yaknow?
But thanks!:clap::clap: you make me sound like some rock star or something...
wel your horribly annoying pic marathons that you drive by post on every thread has made you famous. god i hate the internet:mrgreen:

ALWAYS remember Bugs.. I'm a newb and I know it...:razz:
goes double for me

So I don't get it. Should I use H2O2 or not?
Ha ha! Just kidding. :mrgreen: :twisted: :joint:

I am going to keep using it. Shit canned the Hygrozyme in the res, but I am going to try it on my next batch of clones. I have been having a stem rot problem on my last two batches of clones. I douched the shit out of everything with some bleach/water solution. Getting ready to cut a new batch. Not really hurting my progress. Just trying to get a few new mothers.

Imho Gypsy, with your set up you have plenty of room to try it both ways. All of this could have been avoided by a simple side by side test. Oh well.

Where I live, mold and fungus and just about everything else will grow anywhere. Seriously. The troubles of a hot climate with high humidity. I don't really have the space to do a side by side right now. Can't put two trays under my 400W. And I can't afford my 1KW until I get some crop in. But after that it's game on. Then maybe I can start to contribute to this thing. As for now I will just stick with what I know and try my best to filter other suggestions.

And in case none of you knew I am a fah reel newb. About 4 weeks from my first indoor harvest. Exciting for sure, but a bit nerve racking. Can't screw this one up. After 2 days of using the Lucas Formula though I have noticed that the plants seem to be into it. Greener and fuller that quick. And so far the res is nice and clean.
Thanks for the help and the 5 new pages of debate to read Bugs, LB and Gypsy. Sometimes this thread stagnates for too long then somebody tosses up 10,000 pics or a heated discussion. Keeps it interesting.

So everyone fire up a fatty and get blazed. It's almost harvest time!!!:eyesmoke::peace:

nice......:mrgreen:
that is the spirit the great homo, aka sparkafire intended this thread to be about.

as long as lb aint lookin....keep it. and hell ya on the hygrozyme. i used it in the cloner and in my spray bottle when i was still using rapid rooters and wow!!!! bleach white roots and lots of em. but if you got nasties in there folks swear it will go bad for you.
I have been having a stem rot problem on my last two batches of clones. I douched the shit out of everything with some bleach/water solution. Getting ready to cut a new batch. Not really hurting my progress. Just trying to get a few new mothers.
i am struggling to get moms back up to par since the addition of my 250mh.....rot of any kind sucks. but man do i hate bleach....it kills me that people use it. it will kill your plants if you dont get rid of it all during cleaning. i use dawn,water and bio green clean. and i never have issues.

no, it could have been avoided by me and lb keeping our mouths shut.:mrgreen:

i bet you cant wait to get everything up and running!!!

ok, i'm a newb too...and the lucas formula doesnt make sense to me. i literally dont understand it.:cry:

I hear you...

BUT I am a newb... and not really a gambling man...

I XEROXED Fuct's op... and it worked...

I am NOT about to put my 1g/w at risk...

If someone has enough "know how" to convince me.. I'll try something...

But up until this conversation... I HAD NEVER QUESTIONED THE USE OF h2o2..

I had NO REASON to try something different...

But when more experienced growers (like LB) tell me I am wasting money... I HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION...

I do not like paying out... I am tight tight tight with money...

But yeah.. now that I question it.. a test will be done... so I can rest assured my money is not being wasted...

:wall::wall:

1-2 days and 5 pages of post later i see ya still dont get it.

didnt bugs just break it down for ya?

nobody said anything about wasting money. its all about efficiency and what ya need and dont need. this is why Al B fuct stressed that he will not design anybody OP or hold hands because everybodys OP is different in one small way or one big way or one another.

this wasnt al b fucts way originally. he will tell you that someone taught him on the inet years and years ago and that is he paying it forward. and he would say that over and over again. Al also admits to being stuck in his ways and not going on experiment missions....but he did do experiments when he felt like it....but other than that he will tell you, he doesnt have time for trial and error....he wants what is tried and true. I, however, on the other hand like to burn my hand on the stove and see how i can increase increase increase increase productivity. And its nothing wrong with both of mindsets....as that is how the community keeps growing....one goes with the tried and true and some others are inventing new shit or coming up with new means. With all that said, i hope people dont think im talking shit about al b fuct, cuz he is one of my mentors...im just hardheaded and like to test the waters myself

furthermore, again this is always why you would never ever see Al B holding anybody hands or accepting PMs. Sure he would answer questions in thread and help the best he can, but he isnt going to design everything for you.

No 2 Ops will be identical unless you are in the same location (water consistency) with 2 different flowering rooms or so. This is another reason why AL B drew up the blueprints, but werent very strict.


Either his mentor taught him about air pumps or either he threw them in there hisself.

Once you have forced air injection, you are inviting air borne pathogens to get into your hydroponic reservoir. This is also what causes pH to fluctuate and EC to go wild!!!!

I, however, dont use air pumps for the previous reasons stated. I'd rather use COLD WATER, mechanical force, waterfall, and fast moving water to create my DO.

Al B would notice slime, gunk and other types of buildup and pathogens in his res because as i said before warm water will give pathogens a nice breeding ground. That (air pumps) mixed with warm water reservoirs brought on the problem and He wanted something that could nix it. This is why he used/started using h2o2.... im sure if Al didnt have a pathogen problem, he would not use. Al is sorta commercial, he doesnt have time to be buying shit, if he didnt need or 'as a just in case measure'. Plus Al also knows that Flood and Drain is less susceptible to dieases and such because roots dont actually hang into hydroponic water like other hydroponic systems, but instead in E & B, the roots are in pots/containers, filled with medium

This is what was the problem gypsy....you thought you NEEDED to have pathogen control. Why add extra equipment/nutes when you dont have pathogens? This is what me and bugs were getting at. I dont use air pumps, and i keep my res covered...they are a cold 64.5F and water is kept moving.... i dont have pathogens, so i dont have the need for 'pathogen' control


also just to pull your leg.... you didnt exactly xerox AL's OP because he believes in canna products....even used root stimulators and bloom boosters. matter fact he even took advice from people who would tell him that the dosage ratio for pk13/14 was wrong....you on the other hand claim you want to listen and learn, yet all you do is flash your pics with some kinda smart-alecy remark and say 'damn i dont see a deficiency' :p :p :p :hump:


This is why me and bugs bang our head to the brick wall, Gypsy. This is what we are talking about selective reading, smart assery, etc etc. This is why. Another example is the last few post, you said 'well, why aint nobody come out and just say that. coulda been that simple'.....yet when me and bugs do try to explain it simple...you accuse us of not going into detail enough....its like we cant win :p bongsmilie


but we still love you
