    Slow/stunted growth. First dwc

    That pic proves not a dam thing about the claims you made... look back at my post and what i wrote... then tell me what in it is wrong and how it is wrong... not throw up pic some and say see. Fuck what's next waterfalls cure cancer then post that pic up as evidence? Get fucking real. Your...

    Slow/stunted growth. First dwc

    And that's due to replacing your air stone with a waterfall... I'm not saying you can't grow... I'm saying your claims about your waterfall are extremely exaggerated and in some cases absolutely false. Knowing how to grow does not change that and I never once said you don't know how to grow. I...

    I would stop the Cal-Mag... @OldMedUser has some solid advice there too.

    Slow/stunted growth. First dwc

    Ok i will entertain and respond. Point #1 You are under the assumption that they push hot air. The wattage (amount of heat) on an air pump is minuscule and combined with the volume of air passing through it makes for a negligible amount of heat transfer. No different than a water pump the...

    is co2 worth getting?

    I would stick with 18/6 lighting personally. The plants perform different processes during lights on/off so some dark period is needed

    Slow/stunted growth. First dwc

    Sorry but that makes 0 sense. Waterfall or air stone you can get root rot...neither create or solve the issue if they are supplying enough agitation to create gas exchange. How are they less efficient? i don;t mean marginal or negligible amounts. If you want to debate this we can but you will be...

    is co2 worth getting?

    Would it not only reduce the growth rate occurring after the light saturation point (unknown). You would still get a normal growth rate until that point, and then a reduction in growth after that point which would still total more growth. At least until the point where damage to the leaves is...

    270ppm out of the tap is high. I would recommend doing 3/4 RO 1/4 Tap and bump the nutes up a bit. Stop the cal-mag foliar unless you see a deficiency. More often than not you create problems by throwing extra stuff at them. Yes seachem prime will break down chloramines. i think a cap/50 gal...

    I will add to the FUCK O2 EMMITER comment... 100% agree these are a gimmick and there is more to it. The majority of gas exchange in terms of o2 happens at the surface since o2 is not easily dissolved in water unlike some other gasses. You are not putting o2 into the water but rather...

    How are air stones going to cause problems?

    Slow/stunted growth. First dwc

    I'm going to suspect water temp as well with likely some root issues get it down to 70F if you can, preferably 68. Humidity could be a bit higher and there is some heat stress so back the light off, that's way to much for them at this stage . Stop using cal-mag foliar if you have hard water (no...

    Hydro setup

    Thanks for the compliment. I can already tell there are a few things you could teach this guy. You seen very knowledgeable and looking forward to future discussions.

    is co2 worth getting?

    No argument here. Simply stating that if you can provide enough light 1800+ ppm has shown to increase benefits and of course this was done in a lab study (with the amount of papers i have read on it it would take me some time to try and find it) It was simply a statement not a recommendation...

    Hydro setup

    Good info for a starting point, best used with a sterile method, I have never tried this but it has merit, is simple and works. I use my own method for RDWC and i think its far superior to what is common place in hydro at this time and extremely simple as well as fool proof but does benefit...

    Hydro setup

    Not bad at all. I personally would go 50/50 if you already have an R/O unit but you could go straight tap. 50/50 gives you a little more breathing room and still will contain enough micro's that you shouldn't need to add anything other than regular nutes. Just for reference if you bought your...

    Hydro setup

    Take some tap water and test it with your tds meter. Are you in Europe or NA? I figured I would take a min to give you a link further working your brain. https://www.thegoodearthorganics.com/tips/ppm/ but i found to come in very handy. especially the nutrient portion. From there we can see...

    is co2 worth getting?

    Misinformation everywhere... $$$ is motive. It can absolutely make a big difference but without the proper education and equipment its useless. Much like a F1 race car given to a 10 yr old and expected to produce the same results. Its just not going to happen. But you don't learn by sitting on...

    Hydro setup

    They produce very minimal heat as they are very low wattage. The influence would come more from where the air is drawn from. Inside your tent with higher temps it may raise your water temp depending on volume 1-2F (This is an absolute guess on the amount). Airpump outside on the porch in winter...
