have you given super soil..(hate that name).. a go?

I use Bennies in my regiment so AN's LCL has a permanent home no matter what the nutrient line is..
.... really like the Humboldt honey....
and hygrozyme ....
so, yea... I don't think I'll ever be running just one product line.

and with the Bio and having to supplemental the ever loving shit out of it... was not the case for me...(until the last bottles)... I only used Humboldt honey,Liquid Carbo load,Sweet,hygrozyme and silica blast..... and Cal/Mag...... shit and the bennies (great white and roots XL).....fucking ass crackers ok so maybe there was a little more going into the Biocanna regiment then I was previously thinking... LOL!

I actually did start a super soil grow. I had a batch mixed and everything. The problem was that I couldn't even veg in the Roots organic like it says you are supposed to. I ended up having to feed at something like week 2 in a 1 gal pot because everything was hungry. I gave it a norm dose of BioCanna and they picked up. I tried to just water after that, and it got hungry again. So I abandoned the project looking for a good veg mix and ended up really tightening up my BioCanna run in the process so I just stuck with it. I do this every so often. I have problems with BioCanna, look for something else, and then the BioCanna starts doing even better than it had before. I am considering giving it another go again, I have some Chernobyls I'm dying to get into.

I use Humboldt Honey also. I don't use it as much as I used to. I normally only add it during innoculations and at around day 30 and 45 of flowering. I'll start adding a bit in once I get to the end to help with smells and flavors. I was using a little every time, but it just seems a bit redundant to use the whole time while using BioCanna. I alternate Hygrozyme and Roots Excelurator. I've used great white and roots xl. I use Azos and Mykos now. I really like these and see real nice root development with them. Great white is just too pricey for my liking.

Sure thing mang. The Micromole from Humboldt Nutes:

^that's the 600w version, and the only one of the two that's dimmable down to 400 watts... which is currently the type of setup I'm working to perfect right now. Adding C02 to the mix is the next logical progression, but that will be a little later on (money's tight as it is).

And here's the bulb I'm thinking of getting to run with the ballast:

No no, Not there! It's a renowned private school.

And I'd managed to get the local county to pay for most of it, plus I'll still be getting unemployment checks every week as well. Win Win! Managed to also talk my way out of not one, but getting all THREE Accupalacer tests waived. Booyah! :eyesmoke:

i got a hydrofarm air cooled hood (w/ glass of course) i'll sell you... box it up & ship it to your door.

takes 400w to 1000w bulbs... used but excellent condition... make me an offer.

if you want a pic i'll post one... no problem.
 
Btw, you just made my day with that hurdlur' chick vid there Capitan Stickyfingers. Lol, I was listening to some BS on the stereo and it just synced up perfectly... like that Pink Floyd and Oz deal!

I like cool tubes for tents and raptor for larger areas. Im looking into adjuster wing too

i know that dizzle had asked about cool tubes on a thread on zon and everyone who replied all seemed to say the same things, cool tubes don't have a very good footprint area..

and i love the raptors, but they're too big for my area from the ones i looked at.. i only cover about 3 x 2.5 o so'ish..
 
Cooltubes work okay but you lose lumens because the light has to pass through the glass twice once it hits the reflector. Think about it.

This is true (but) lummins isnt what brings the yield its PAR and par isnt blocked by glass!
lummins are what you and i see! Plant see and feed on par :)

Yeah well i wont complain knowing i can get my 1000watt cool tube only 10 inches above my canopy at a steady 78 degree temp.
The loss of lumens becomes irrelevant at that point imo, i could be wrong but i dont think i am.
 
Racerboy I use magnum xxxl. I like them better then the raptors because of how the glass comes out. It's way easier to clean a magnum than a raptor IMO. Both are nice hoods but I chose The magnum for that reason.
Pretty sure someone in here was saying they liked the blockbuster(I think) better than the magnum and that they ahead used both. It was one of the regulars but I can't remember who.

Btw I smoked some stardawg today. That herbs some fire for sure
