    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    So, will any quality, pure "Sphagnum" be a substitute for the Ancient Forest? I did a shit ton of searching online 6-12 months ago about this - looking for what it is I'd need and what ancient forest is; btw - it's not EWC it's humus/sphagnum mostly, though there's def EWC in it - and one...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    They'll be fine in the fridge, essentially 'sleeping'. Leave about half the container space for air or leave the top off. I was wondering about brewing less as welll. A gallon or even a 1/2 gallon should be fine I think, I made 2 gallons once and threw out over a gallon, lol. My mistake...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    Hey thanks for the response and the insight GiftedOne. Much appreciated. Also - I see someone sort of addressed my question back like 50 pages - so thanks as well. As of the other day, I'm dead set on getting some "Ancient Forest" - it's kind of a no brainer. Here's what I just found out...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    Hey guys, So I'm familiar with this recipe/thread from like a year or more ago. Anyway, just wondering: 1) Is there any replacement for poop? i.e.: Is there anything else other than EWC that'll fill it's place? And is Ancient Forest much better (is it cleaner) than regular EWC. I have...

    leaves on hydroponic cannabis plant curl down and droop

    I know this thread is kinda old, but, isn't 1/2" under the bottom of the net pot a completely arbitrary guideline. If you're in a 10" net pot and have it full of media, your plant cube/roots could be anywhere from the very bottom of that net pot to the very top of it - and that's about 8 to 10...

    Quantitative Airstone Test. an end to the hype

    Hey Legally, I wanted to know about your Pondmaster AP-100 air pump setup. How is it working? How many lines from manifold are you running, and how many air stones? How long have you had it now? Does it stay a lot cooler than that Ecoplus commercial air one does? Well my question is posted in...

    Quantitative Airstone Test. an end to the hype

    Hey Legally, Good thread, read the whole thing - even the wars. Do you have any grow threads, I'd like to see what you're working with. How many buckets/sites are you running off that "pondmaster ap-100" (right? 148L/min)? At first I was thinking 10L/min per 5 gal bucket (not 5 full gals...

    hanging bulbs vertically.....

    Bingo. So technically, your buddy has a point. If the bulb model has a "U" at the end - it means its position is "universal" and can be hung vertically or horizontally. edit: looks like this was addressed :)

    So this vertical lighting I added sucks!

    I'm not an expert, but I'm almost positive this isn't completely correct. That is...I think it's..wrong. UV sunglasses will be better than nothing, for sure. But there are threads on the subject, you should get shade 5 glasses or something similar; welding glasses/goggles, something more...

    Maximum Nutrient Strength / Truncheon Meter Mixup

    Hey everyone. So, I just received my Truncheon meter today - I needed it weeks ago, and wasn't going to flip until I had one. I ordered the "Commercial Truncheon meter which has a slightly higher scale than the "standard" truncheon meter. They sent me the freakin' standard one!! F**K. I just...

    Ohhh, not only do you suggest the Ranco, but you yourself use it? That's awesome man. I'm gonna order one on payday. Thanks a lot dude. PS: I see some 'pre-wired' ones on pretty obscure sites (though graingers was one of them). I don't think I'll bother though, I think I can figure it out...
