++Hellraizers++ DO AND DONTs and in and outs of the ebb&grow/ebb&flow systems

[hellraizer30]

although I'm thinking of doing a couple small flood tables starting with 6 inch rockwool cubes and then stacking on 12 inch cubes then into buckets.unless someone tells me different in this nice thread.

Db i would run tables to veg in 6x6 hugos and then move to your monster buckets and fill the rest in with growdan loose
fill, much cheaper and easy to work with.

but I already got these silly ass silica roks. pricey too, so you're saying use no hydroton or roks at all??

 

[dbkick]

I guess my problem was I just wasn't ready to pop them into the ebb monster, I suppose I can just do 6 inch cubes and then into rok, I screwed my schedule all up this time and that's what threw me off, hell I could just go from rapid rooter to the buckets now.

I say this... Fuck rock or rok lol tron clay its all bs. Growdan or coco nothing else

The problem with stacking will be placing them in the buckets without ripping all the roots. If that is the way you want just go right to 6-8-12" cubes. To start with.

I agree. Just ton sucks. But I'm loving the 80/20. So are the plants. Moved a 2' tall 3' wide plant and it never moved or stressed. Couldn't do that with hydroton.

Did you switch to the technaflora yourself. I remember you telling me you had AN dialed in.

 

[hellraizer30]

I had both of them dailed but AN keeps sending out bad batchs and fing up everybodys grows!
then say you can return for 100% money back.... But shit they going to replace my burn to fuck plant
hell no. Techno is good shit but canna is the future for me

 

[FuzzDodger]

I used canna when I was running soil with great results. Since I moved on to Hydro I've been looking at Heavy 16. But I like the idea of running some H2O2 to keep shit clean. Manufacturer told me that would be no good. was wondering if anybody have used Drip Clean from H&G.

FuzzDodger; What % of H2O2 and how much per gallon do you run in your units.
Thanks.
sod.

I'm running heavy 16. Never ran h2o2 all the time. Didn't see a problem when I used to for a week. But now I'm just running bennies.

Heavy 16 is some pricey stuff, is it accually worth it?

If you compare heavy. With other brands you would see its not really that pricey.
but from what friends tell me its good stuff! I have run it but with minimal results.

 

[Warlock1369]

It costs alot upfront. Bit with less extras needed it's cheeper in the long run. Last 2 grows been running 3/4 and going 2 weeks. Adding 1/4 after a week. Plants are happy and 1 4L BUD kit lasts 2 grows or more in 55 gallon res. And don't remember the last time I bought veg.

the Rec dosage on the chart says 15mL of each A&B, and even more in mid bloom, are you saying thats overkill then?

Alway start at 3/4 the rec dose. Some brands like AN go 1/2
feeding charts are always a bit hot.

I used Heavy 16 when I first started with my Ebb & Flo. I used it prior in soil with good results.. I personally thought that the Prime was making my res a mess..

 

[Warlock1369]

I only use heavy 16 veg and bud. Liquid karma, armor coat and N-cal-mag from (grow more), azos and tea from (Xtream gardening) and that's it. Couldn't be happyer.
