love the baby quails - cute and relaxing i bet lol
Guess the ph perfect does drift?Well fellas, got the hydroguard this morning. Put 4ml in my 4gal res. The pH definitely drifted since I first started on Saturday. It was up to 7.3. Brought it down to 5.6. Seedling still has its helmet on but its growing.
Definitely appears so. I will have to keep track of it daily. Atleast on feed days I wont have to do any pHing.Guess the ph perfect does drift?
I don't remember if you said, but what for water are you using and how long did you let it set?Definitely appears so. I will have to keep track of it daily. Atleast on feed days I wont have to do any pHing.
It'll stabilize as soon as you get roots in the water.RO and it sits in jugs in my garage for who knows how long. From brand new to weeks old at this point. I literally filled like 60 jugs and go through them in no certain order. My ppms are around 7-9.
Thanks for taking the time to tell me why. Thats badass. Thanks 3MRoots swap hydrogen for nutrient uptake. Hydrogen lowers ph, so it'll buffer out with root mass.
beautiful mainline - love it!Check out my mainline on one of my testers.

I dont think I will defoliate anymore until after I am in early flower.
Thanks bro, couldve done a prettier job but I am all about function over looks hahabeautiful mainline - love it!
Working on a cheap "chiller" idea for my hydro tub. Built it up on a box, insulated around the tub, and the exhaust fan draws the outside AC in under the box. So far, it's keeping it cool under the box. Just got it filled with water, so I'll see how cool it keeps that. This is going to be my mother station.it's like night and day once the roots establish - my pH stays pretty stable!
also - when she drinks water - top it off with RO - don't do like i did and top it off with nutrient-filled water. It causes lockouts and can fuck your plant up.
also track your daily water levels, ppm, and pH and temp in case you don't have a chiller.
if you haven't yet, also download this to your phone:
I saw someone make a chiller using some computer parts and an aluminum chiller block. I'll have to hunt it downWorking on a cheap "chiller" idea for my hydro tub.

Thanks. That could be quite useful.I saw someone make a chiller using some computer parts and an aluminum chiller block. I'll have to hunt it down
Warm air from the pump and temps.What causes the water to heat up generally?
