    Is daily watering really needed for Coco?

    I think your pot is staying heavy because the plant isn't big enough yet to be taking up that much water in a day. A large portion of the media doesn't have roots in it yet. I wouldn't water to run off until you have leaves that are at least reaching the edges of the pot. On my first grow...

    Granite Haze day 11 from first sprout. They each popped up about a day apart. Started in Root Riot plugs and as soon as tap root appeared each was moved into Autopot with 100% Canna Coco. Started top watering each at 0.6 EC gradually upping EC and lights. This morning lights up to 400 ppfd and...

    H I might be a little too critical sometimes because by the time it's dry and cured I've usually built up a pretty good tolerance already. Everybody tells me both Chemdogs are great. Each plant had totally different structures. One had really monster buds and the other smaller but very uniform...

    Yeah it's supposed to be 60/40 sativa leaning. It was me that had the chemdog. A little disappointing honestly. For a f6 2 very different phenos. I liked their CDLC much better. I really liked the 2 f1 freebies that came with it much better. They both seemed to be more sativa like.

    Last grow ended up pretty good. Got 23 oz dried flower and 52g of nice blond bubble from 4 plants. Started 3 GraniteHaze f6 from Speedrun last week in Autopots. These are supposed to be heavy yielding autos and I decided that 3 plants will probably work out best for me. I was also fighting...

    Anyone use one of these little guys? Aliexpress venturi.

    When I shipped young angel fish to a wholesaler in Chicago I had about a 4.5 hour drive. 200 fish went into a plastic bag that was in an insulated shipping container that measured about 16x16x12 inches tall. The bag only needed about 2" of water. I'd then purge as much air out as possible and...

    My apologies for jumping to that conclusion! I guess that comes from me trying to explain this to people over the years.

    As someone who was an active aquarium hobbyist for over 25 years breeding and raising freshwater angel fish and then maintaining living reef saltwater tanks I respectively disagree. The size of the bubbles is irrelevant other then speeding up the movement of water there by increasing the...

    It's not the bubbles that oxygenates water. Oxygen exchange naturally occurs only at the water's surface. Bubbles just insure that more water is exposed to the surface.

    Who is using AI Controller (AC Infinity) and how?

    In AI I can set each individual fan for the speed and swing to be constantly changing from 1 to 10 which is a feature I like and want. When not in AI I can only set the speed to one set speed between 1 and 10 and no adjustment of the degree of swing. The only way to access the variable settings...

    Who is using AI Controller (AC Infinity) and how?

    I got mine for the extra ports too and still set everything manually. I think they should spend more time perfecting the AI then releasing some of their other new products. One thing I don't like is that I don't have full use of all of the features of the circulation fans outside of AI. Turns...

    I grow autos and do the same but shoot for 6.2 to 6.3

    Your EC really isn't very high. If you are getting nutrient burn at 1.5 they probably aren't getting enough light. My last run in Autopots with 100% coco I was running a 3.0 EC in RO until about the last 2 weeks with my lights cranking. Three plants were taking 3 to 4 gallons per day at their peak.

    I focus more on the condition of new growth before making any changes. Plant looks great to me! I'm surprised you are only watering coco once a day though.

    Thank you! I like the tall one second from the right. I think it gets much better light penetration, air flow, and is much easier to defoliate. It's had no training at all yet has multiple colas all about the same height. I guess if it was a photo it would probably be the one I'd clone for a mother.
