    spiral nozzles

    tex 879 these nozzle are the shit. Unfortunately they are putting out to much volume to measure the spray so im still going to need slightly smaller nozzles but they are literally uncloggable... Im using a valve to control the flow now.. and already wont go back to my previous aero nozzles

    Topping my auto's to reduce popcorn buds? :(

    Theres actually quite a few of these ... I don't use auto's .. if you google you might find them I dunno if I can post links on rollitup .. there are also some things you can do to the plant to keep it from producing the flowering hormone... but then there are mostly autos that are infact fully...

    autoflower....from BAGSEED?! pics + need flowering advice

    autoflower isnt alway a true autoflower .. at 24/0 they will veg but at less then 24/0 they will flower which is probably what you got.. you can veg it more then likely under 24/0. Its hard to find a fully 24/0 autoflowering plant the more rud they breed in the less potent and the closer to...

    Remove Miracle Grow Seed Starting mix to translpant to coco?

    oh honestly ive never used canna coco so you got me there but my point about soaking wasnt to rinse it.. It was so the coco absorbs the water over the 24 hr period and wont develop dry spots. As for transplanting with soil to I wouldnt advise it. I did that once when I first started...

    Topping my auto's to reduce popcorn buds? :(

    Are they true Auto's? or the longer photoperiod auto? If they are longer photoperiod autos you can actually veg the auto in 24/0 and cut down to 18/6 to flower or whatever the threshold is this will give you time to train better before flower. If they are true autos and flower under 24/0 then...

    Remove Miracle Grow Seed Starting mix to translpant to coco?

    Also coconut coir is an amazing seed starting substrate so get the stuff with chips in the coir as well and soak it down and seed start right in the coco next time. That way there is no transplant shock.

    Remove Miracle Grow Seed Starting mix to translpant to coco?

    are you using coir or chips? If your using coir soak the coir in water for 24 hours first If its coir and chips just soak it down till its wet then pull the plant from the party cup by tipping it over.. get a bucket of water and dissolve the dirt from the roots by gently bobbing the base in...

    How much to water newly planted seeds.

    I second that and don't use any fertz for 2 - 3 weekz even longer in soil.. I suggest fluffing the soil up with cococoir mixed in as well you cant have to much aeration its impossible.. itll make the plant roots more resilient.

    The predatory feed is high in P and K while herb feed is low in p and k so I just feed the predatory fish a big more to get them. You shouldnt need to supplement at all. I don't worry about KH or GH at all tilapia like harder water so do bass probably because they naturally occur in heavy...

    hopefully the nozzles will be in today at 3pm my time so ill let you know how they go. I dont buffer the system with anything and have no deficiencies thats what the predatory fish is for. The only thing is ill drop a bit of iron in the biofilter every now and then to feed the iron chelating...

    My water runs through a biofilter then into a radial swirl solid filter stuffed with trapdoor snails which overflows into a separate res through a biodiesel 10micron filter bag attached to the end of the dump pipe split with an overflow pip due to flow restrictions.. then I cover the res and...

    well a 50 gallon biofilter filled with mesh if its normal matala is about 215specific sqft and if filled has about 7 cubic feet area so 215*7=1505*.06=90.3g/.03=3010g or about 6 lbs of feed a day so with mesh in a 50 gallon its probably enough for about anything so if you have your heart set on...

    as for the tank level.. see the amount of gallons as a buffer then less fish per gallon the bigger the buffer. If you have 1 fish per 3 gallons you have less of a buffer as 1 fish per 5 or 7 gallons... less buffer bigger the spikes and the higher the chance of your system performing poorly and...

    so if you have 50 piranha and feed it 1 pound beef a day then 1lb = 450g*.03 =13.5g/.06=225/315=.715 cubic feet of 315sqft density media flow rate should be about 6gpm/sqft in a .715cubic would be about 1` by 1` so 6gpm or 360 gph pump covering all media should keep levels normal. But if you...
