And C.A. thanks a lot for stopping through with the fishing info. I was wondering if you missed my post... but you caught it. (totally didn't mean that pun, but I'll leave it) I'm super stoked to start my new hobby. Probably will take some time to get going as I save a bit of money and get everything else in order. Should be awesome. Just what you posted got me excited to no end. Sounds right up my alley.

Just a bummer I'm a year to late to take interest. My old next door neighbor moved less than a year ago and when he did he got rid of all his old fly fishing gear. He had assembled his collection over 40 years or so, but his kids aren't into it, and I didn't want it... even remember telling him no. FUCK! Ah well... wasn't meant to be I guess. Thanks a whole bunch for the response.
I was heavy into flyfishing before I screwed my back up and I have been running cheap 15 to 25 $ Wally world fly rods with a decent ebay fly reel ($20). I spent alot more on a quality flyline ($50) and some good flies and took a guided float/flyfishing class for $150. Now I can read the water and know where they should be, and I catch alot more fish. I just wish I could still get out and wade the rivers for salmon and steelhead like I used to. You live in an area that has alot of HUGE trout that don't get much pressure so You're in a great area for fly fishin. I'll be movin down that way as soon as I get my SSI just because of all the good fishing. I love the area around Red Bluff down to Chico for fishing!!

Happy Birfday brosef!!!!. . . may your day be filled with long bike rides, and even longer joints. :peace:

On a slightly different note... anyone ever try an 13/11 light cycle, giving an extra hour to the day time? Would this help in plant growth ya think? Larger yields? Thoughts? A lot of plants will start to flower at 10.5 to 11 hours of darkness... just thinking out loud here.

whats the best size tent for a 600w hps
A 4 x 4 is great for me, it also gives you the option of upgrading to a 1000 down the road.

Sup 600? Haven't been on much lately, been very busy working and gardening. Loving the prOn and good conversation as always, I hope everyone had a great weekend!

hey and who elese here is fromt he states? just wondering? mostly talking to known 6 members too but others aare welcome to respond
I think most of us are from the states. Duchie is our only canadian I think. West, Don, Nas, Mantiszn, 3eyes, a few others are UK. Dst is in europe. But I think maybe 60-70% are americans. And I think of those americans about half of us are in california.

Hope that straitens things out mate ;)

EDIT: Forgot we got a couple peeps in Australia.
Back in the mid-60's I moved to solid state, but I currently hail from the great state of confusion, though I seem to find time to get over to a state of wonder as often as I can.
Ashamed to say that I sometimes still visit the state of anger, but the sales tax is too high, so I try to avoid that place.
;-)

(other than those places: Oregon's beautiful Willamette Valley is where I lay my head to rest)

hmmm not real familiar with your table set but aa freind of mine had the same issue recently and he runs a high end DWC system. He soaked his roots with H2O2 real good to kill the rot, cleaned out the rez well and started over. i will go and try to find some more info for you. keep your chin up and
good luck
thanks ima read up about how much h2o2 to use per gallon and give it a go.. And I know this is a flood and drain table. I said dwc like a dumb ass but its kinda right in the middle the way I set it up and the way the long roots grow..

@reggaerican I would suspect high water temps could be the main cause. Do you know what temp your water is at? Also, I've never run flood and drain, but I can't imagine that problem coming from not enough water. I think 10min per hour is more than enough. But yeah, I've only ever done dwc so not an expert..
thanks jig you know to be honest I never thought of checking my rez temps if anything mine might be too cold, but I will check on that today... my rez is outside the room and dug into the earth in my basement floor... is too cold bad also..?
thanks guys every bit of help I can get just might save these girls right now

Here is a nice link by a very knowledgable and experience veteran of RIU, lots of great info here for flood and drain and applications of H2o2.

Also, I'm horrible with remembering birthdays (I'd rather forget my own): who's birthday is it?

Well, in any event: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

If I had a bowl, I'd toke in your honor, but an emoticon is all I can muster at this point, so: bongsmilie

I think 55 is about the coolest you want the water. Mine stays something like 65-68 and I think that's about perfect. Those two threads the guys posted should really help.
