Seems like for those running smaller pots they’re more frequently feeding throughout the day. I’d assume you probably feed at least 3 times a day probably more at that pot size. I’m going to try feeding to runoff only once instead of both times for the day.

That’s what I’ve read I increased dosage by half a gram for both a and b. But even with this last feeding runoff is still under. I might try fertigating to runoff only once during the day instead of both times. Probably feed to runoff after lights off dry back, than feed without run off before...

I did notice this last feeding that my runoff is quite a bit more than 20%. I feed at about 750-800mL and my runoff after I let it drip for a few seconds is around 200-300mL. I think this could be a partial factor.

My bad rookie mistake I guess oops. And I let it runoff for about 10-20 seconds before I start to collect it and measure. at this point I’m only feeding twice a day at 800ppm. 5 gallon pots. Ph is 5.8-6.0. Up until this last week I had been treating it like soil and watering when dry to runoff...

Hey RIU! I’ve been growing in coco from the start. I was taught to treat it like soil, water when dry type deal. As I’ve grown in this journey, and tried new things. I have stumbled across high frequency fertigating. Man have I been using coco wrong. This is my first attempt at it and I’ve been...

Y Yeah im pretty much just chucking a little pollen for shits and giggles I really have no idea what I’m doing as you can see lol. Will def check that out though.

Happy accident I guess, rookie mistake. Next time I’ll take the sanitation more seriously. Either way this is a auto female pollinated with a photo, the more seeds the better odds of having female and male autos

Hey y’all, good to see RIU back up and running. I decided to try a breeding run. I shut all fans off, isolated the 2 plants I wanted to seed, and than brushed 2 nodes of two branches for each plant. Waited a few hours, and than introduced them back into the tent which has a few other plants 2...

Thanks man. I have a pretty good relationship with the guys over at the local grow store. The owner who was there when I was looking around sold me on these. So far 10/10 germ rate so I’m pretty excited.

First time encountering a seedling with this weird growth. Opinions? Should I scrap it or let it ride out. It’s 1 of 10 all the others sprouted normally.

Thanks for the input, I’ve seen mixed reviews. It’s made out of aluminum. I would prefer to buy from an American company. I see some who swear by them and some who don’t. But I can’t seem to find the exact reasoning behind why they don’t like them. It’s never bc the lights just straight up...

Purchased at a local grow store in MA. I follow his IG and has a decent following.

Hey y’all, I’m in the market for a new light for my 5x5. I’m looking into the CLW SX 820, along with a few other brands. Anyone with experience with this company care to give some insight on them? Thanks!

Yeah so the ppm is usually 150 and under last I measured it it was 132 like last week. I know our water is super hard. Growing in fabric pots you really see the calcium and salt build up on them. I tried to find a detailed report on my municipal water supply but I couldn’t find anything that...

Yeah it’s an unfinished basement, the odd thing is that the ac worked fine in the heat of the summer I think the ambient humidity in the basement is so high that the spike the ac gives off is similar in percentage so the dehumidifier can actually take out the humidity. Also another variable is...
