Anyone tried this? I have an old hot water system I can gut and use as a cover.

Week 7 update.

This is how they're looking so far after nearly eight weeks since transplanting.

This was basically how it started, went from a 4 X 8 tent into using the whole room. The plants themselves didn't have the best start and near the end of week 3f they're only just getting over a P deficiency they carried over from the mom plants.

Actually I did let them get a P deficiency as you can see from the purple stems but no more than 1ml/L should be enough. Maybe 1.5 to 2 if you really want to push it but I've managed to grow 5" plants on only a four week veg cycle with no more than 1ml/L of Micro.

Environment is really important, growing in a tent will make things easier only if your climate control is consistent. A steady flow of air in and out of the tent is a must and how that air gets distributed in the tent is important too. Using an extraction fan up top coupled with an oscillating...

I use Seasol. Derived from cold climate Bull Kelp. I use it as a root stimulant in the seedling stages. Throughout the whole grow I use it along with humics to increase natural resistance. As a foliar in veg I use it to stop vertical growth and increase lateral branching.

Yer I'd flush your res and start over with plain water pH downed. Only start adding nutes when you have decent roots going. Look for the side branching on the roots to begin, if it's mainly just the tap root. They look pretty fresh. I'd keep a humidity dome on those guys till the roots set too...

Silica in liquid form (Potassium Silicate) is so alkaline I use it as a pH up once the base solution is set. Add first and pH down to around 6.5 (at least under 7 in the acidic range), the micro will drop it a bit and if you're using humics/fulvics they will drop it a fraction more. Going raw...

I've only grown in R/DWC. I used to change my res weekly, new water, new nutes. This was necessary as I was doing all kinds of weird shit to the feed ratios when I was learning. After a few grows under your belt you'll learn what the plants want. These days I don't change my res but I still need...

As soon as you can upgrade to recirculating do it. Having climate control at the root zone eliminates a lot of potential problems. The upkeep is actually a lot easier than DWC too. It may not sound like a lot of work but watering individual DWC buckets can actually become a task. The res if big...

Like fulvics/humics are chelators for the essential nutes, Amino acids; namely Glutemic and Glycine is a chelator for Calcium. Except it works a lot better as it adds an opposing charge to the molecule so you have true active transportation of Ca into the plant. You want a good root system to...

This is my poor mans setup, well 1/3 poor. Two thirds of this room is being lit by $30 usd floodlights. I'm a solo grower that has grown through 4 harvests. This is my fifth grow and I've gone back to basics on most things, except size of the grow. There are two strains. Gelato under the decent...

I looked up what a Bract was - a modified leaf or scale, typically small, with a flower or flower cluster in its axil. Bracts are sometimes larger and more brightly coloured than the true flower, as in poinsettia. So then if it's just a modified leaf than trichomes on any of the leaves should...

There are a few questions I have that I haven't bothered to research so I'm just going to see what people's opinions are and go from there. Is the production within the plant or on the surface of the plant? Does it make it a secretion if it comes from within the plant and if so does that mean...

Overall if it's about quality then genetics are what should be discussed...not grow medium. Hydro has an undeniable yield advantage more for the fact the it can be harvested year round...the only true soil grows that are raking it in are outdoor farmers that have plantations. When big Aggra come...

Soil growers can end up adding way more things to their grows than hydro growers...thousands of extra things from the microbes in the soil. So technically soil growers add way more unknown things to their plants than hydroponic growers do but like I said earlier people are adding mycorrhiza to...

It's funny that commercial cannabis growers use Current Culture to grow commercially. Pretty sure the only producers that use it only grow weed and that says a lot. They've only been around since 2006 and I think the success they found with that system was unwarranted, especially for them to...

Like check this out...only two vids that I can find on blind bud testing and they're both shit lol.

What the community lacks most is research on the effects. It could be like a census lol.
