That makes sense.. I almost said it in my post about this matter.... I think my problems with small media could have been solved by beefing up aeration and such

It is quite a bit less dusty that hydroton. It is lighter than hydroton. Water retention is pretty good. idk, it's been a long time since I used clay balls. I didn't think hydroton was available anymore.

This is my favorite hydro media available right now.. It is not as cheap as bulk granite/river rock/pea gravel/etc, but, it is cheaper than most clay balls/kernels for sale. For a bagged media, I love this stuff.

I've never been real good with flood and drain hydro, but, I always had healthier roots with larger pieces. I wonder what is is about the smaller size that got you better growth? Do you have an idea?

Good luck with the granite.. hope it works out well for you.

Nice.. yeah.. options are totally local.. I get CHEAP granite here. It doesn't have to travel far. I should look for some agregate(sp?). I'm sure it i available somewhere. The mountain granite I saw is just HD bagged stuff. Yeah, watering more times a day is an easy fix to fast draining media.

24/7 "fountain" hydro. manifold with an irrigation fitting "1/2 elbow" to each site/plant. This is actually an aquaponic system.. but it works with nutes.. just have to change the water out over and over. Aquaponics are set and forget. Some plants aren't happy with the fountain thing.. Some...

A fountain hydro system works great.. I have built manifolds with a feeder to each plant. Let me get a pic...

I'm asking myself the same question right now.. cheaper grow media? When you buy rock by cubic yard or by the ton you pay a much much lower price than buying rock bagged. It's the same with soil, compost, mulch, rock, whatever. I am setting up 4 large 200 gal aquaponic systems right now.. We...

Interesting idea.. I work with crushed and decomposed granite a bit.. I have never thought to use it. Most of what I get is not consistent in size... 1/4in minus.. but I have seen some "mountain granite" that was grow media sized.. I like expanded shale.. It is pretty damn cheap too. I have...

I know. Pretty disappointed in myself too. I WAS clean for a while. Just gotta get back to it..

That is excellent dirtsurfr. Since I have started smoking more indicas I have experienced the medical benefits of cannabis like I had not before. That's pretty rad you have seen such benefits from MJ.

I wish there was still a like button.. I appreciate the kind words. I was in a rough spot this morning. Going to see about funding tomorrow morning. I'm gonna get off and stay off. Love..

Jesus christ.. i started a thread about this again. I've gone fucking psycho. ehhh...

Yeah, I can apply for state funding.. I gotta go see this counselor at 7 am tmrw. They open at 8 and see you on a first come first serve basis. I'll go see what they can do. Wish I just had the money. I don't wanna have tax payers pay for my problems.. Wish they had a half assed rehab.. give me...

yeah, 12k. fuck it. maybe if i get arrested I can get it for free.

Well, I'm gonna make the call and see what they say. I stopped growing a while back.. I don't have shit for money.. hopefully they will take my broke ass.

Yeah, I've heard about ibogaine.. It sounds terrifying.. I used to love tripping when I was younger. But now, even the most pleasant psychadelics terrify me. I think a good old fashioned detox and rehab is the way to go. I've never tried a rehab inpatient thing before.. I've been to 2...

Nah, no need to apologize. I appreciate it.

I've made like 3 of these threads now.. god damnit, this has to be the last one. In a paranoid state i changed my password to a sequence of numbers and letters and then erased the password so I could never sign on again. I don't even remember why I did it. I don't grow anymore. I think I was...
