so to get to your question sorry about taking so long i got it at the home improvement store it was clearanced down to 100 but it had an internal ballast that i hade to take out and make external, but it is working very well i have to say my temps are down so i'm happy
 
i went to the hydro shop today and picked up some dr hornby big bloom and added that at 5ml per ltr and also picked up some unsulfered molasses and added 2 tablespoons to my ten gallon res

its cool im just thinking about hps aswell
 
Yeah lol when i was at the shop all of the carb nutes were made from molasses or cane sugar. So i figured i would give it a try. The only thing that i noticed that is different is there was bubbles in my res from it so i just shocked the hell outta it with a bottle of peroxide. Whenever i get cloudy water or have a algae problem i just add 1/2 bottle one day and the other half the next and it clears right up. It should have cleared up now i haven't checked today yet though because it is still night time but i will check today garanteed lol gotta make sur emy ph is still on.
 
So here is my little one 28 days into flowering still no smell outta her but i am gettin really excited I think i may be doing something right!! lol

I never told you guys how i the peroxide worked out it clearede up after the third day of treatment with peroxide. Every day after i started to add the h2o2 it got a bit better but the third it was all gone
 
I don't know your other grows and so forth. My question is this do you notice a increase in bud size and density. I run a drip and have thought about MOL. but forgot about it after a little research. I have clogging of my lines as it is now, without asking for problems....LOL.
 
I use ebb and flow so i have no lines to clog. But i think that the clogging lines you are having problems with is from nutrient salts. You probably knew that though.

I have heard of people using filter bags, they are a bag you put your pump into that works as a prefilter, this might be something you want to look into if it isn't nutrient salts that are your problems. I have heard of people using tights thar are thicker than average nylons for prefilter bags. Sapposedly it extends your pumps life too.

This is my first grow that i have done, so I really don't have a bench mark to go from but I do know that carbs make more dense buds.... All of the hydro solutions that are carb solutions are derived from molasses or cane sugar. I have notices my buds growing in more densely but I am not sure if this is the typical life cycle or from the molasses.
 
Mine are from salts yes and algae growing in the line. I like my main line clear to check for flow don't like the thick black for my main. I use rockwool too and that can have particles to clog also.
 
ww when you change your res do you flush your lines with bleach? i think that would help a bunch also i have noticed that h2o2 will take care of algae. Just make sure you run your lines through to get the dead algae out. my water in line is also clear so i had similar problems but no clogging of course. I still think that the filter bag would do you good

So here she is I started to flush today the cut down day is Friday. I plan on changing the water thursday before she gets watered and then the ax....
Last week i sampled a bit of her and got pretty blazed it wasn't the best i have smoked but it was pretty damn good. It was definitely exponentially better than the 2 previous samples i had.
