Hey. In the past, usually when I do my peppers. So when the night time temps are consistently above 55 f. I'm guessing that was too early. I remember some guy saying he starts in fabric bags and then just plants the entire bag in the ground and the roots grow through it.:confused:

:rolleyes: Ok thanks buddy

I'm looking for advice on how to reduce the stress placed on autos growing outside so that they don't flower *prematurely*.

I'm in New York, zone 7 a/b. It's tough with photos out here since the humidity usually encourages bud rot. So I'd like to try growing autos outside. Every auto I've tried to grow outdoors ends up flowering way too early. like 6 inches early. Is there some special trick to doing this? I'm...

Thank you!!!

ah, so I divide by the weight of the nutes. I'm having trouble with your math though. So, Let's assume I'm going off the mixing ratio of 2:1 (MB & CA : MS). (The actual mixing rations on MB's website is wack.) A lot of people do 12g MB&CAL with 6g MS. So, at full strength, with all 3...

Hi all, I've been using MB for a few grows now. Something that I can't quite grasp is the actual NPK. I assumed just add all 3 together to get a final NPK of 19.5-18-38, which seems crazy high. After speaking to 2 MB reps on the phone recently, they both said the NPK is actually half of that...

I was reading up on all the different forms of hydro and there is one that uses a constant drip ring throughout the entire grow. Supposedly the fastest growth too. Who knows ‍♂️. I removed the drip ring all together once the roots hit the water. It seemed like a lot of nooks and crannies for...

Ah, I thought the ratio had to be strict. And I've never ran full strength, just half. Full strength npk numbers seems insane!

Sure I get that plants need N in all stages of growth, but my npk is 20-18-38 and I have about 3 weeks of flower left....

Thanks! Any products or brands that have calcium sulfate or calcium chloride? And any info on ratios?

Yeah but the calcium nitrate is 15.5 N. Doesn't that mean my actual npk is 19.5-18-38?

Hi all, this is my first dwc run. I've been using Master blend tomato formula, along with magnesium and calcium (the basic trio). A lot of people talk about reducing nitrogen while in flower. Should I be cutting back the calcium in my ratio? This is where the nitrogen is coming from. If so...

I've had my Quantum PAR Meter since March 2024

It works great. Honestly I think they're all going to be a little off unless you calibrate them with expensive tools. As long as It's off consistently that's all I care about

I have seen the Beto Dutch buckets come in either black or beige. I have seen a lot about how Roots do not like light. These beige buckets look like they would let light in especially when used with a net pot. So, Roots being exposed to light is not that big of a deal or there's some sort of...

awesome, thank you again so much. Being that I want to have one Rez and multiple sites that span 2 tents, I'm thinking of a simplified Dutch bucket system. One Rez, some type of manifold to feed drip lines to airpots filled with hydroton and a simple drain connected to the saucer that's...

Got it. So we want the female fitting on the inside. Makes sense. Thank you!

I'm thinking of doing this too. One res feeding 3-sites all with different strains, different flower times, photo AND auto. lol Am I asking for trouble? I'll be using Masterblend.

oh man! would love to see more of the schematics of this setup! What to the tops/net pots look like?
