Oh FFS, I've just gone through the fucking water thread, I mean who knew water boils and produces vapour, and if that didn't impress you you're sure to astounded to know that that is 212ºF. The funny thing is that they were right and then fucked up by putting in the 212 because that adds no...

I'm smoking a few bits at the moment, I'm at the end of some Pink Grapefruit which gave me a taste for this type, an Orange Bud that's sort of ordinary, it does the job but it's a nothing taste, however one grew as a strange purple phenotype that tastes like a hearty meat broth with fresh garden...

I just started a sub reddit, /r/slug33 there's nothing there yet as I was just waiting for my testing plant to be ready which it now is. and I'll soon be doing a lot of controlled testing. I discovered that the blowout thing is a problem where the slug pops up, because it releases the pressure...

If you're only growing in small space maybe auto may work out better. My DIY SWC in my sig describes a basic system that's trouble free.

They may look small from the outside but they're larger when you're in them. What am I up against, I'm in a battle with a ghost plant and I didn't even know it. One week later...

Yeah I didn't know if you were talking about the strength of the plant or the strength of the weed. Got it.

In fact now that I think about it, a DWC bucket is a bit like a refrigeroaster, which is what was used to describe the Surface tablet. Not quite the same but the DWC is trying to combine the reservoir with the pot. And it doesn't do either of them very well. It doesn't do the pot well because...

Strong in what way? The reason I say that about the roots is that the DW in DWC is not a good medium for that type of tree branching root development. No so important with photoperiod but with autos a solid root structure allows all the other high stress stuff they need. Even a normal DWC...

The metric that matters for me is the head height. I was using the smallest 6.5W pump with a head height of 85cm but I to the next size up which is 8W and a head height of 1 metre it was just as quiet but gave me that little extra safety margin. The distance from the bottom of the res to the top...

@.Smoke, right. This is why I asked, that's four bucket thing is exactly the sort of hydro you do not want. How difficult does this sound... 3 tubs, 1 x 6W water pump, and a foot or two of tubing. That is it. Check out my DIY shallow water culture grow. Soil is just a bag of hurt, and when you...

OK that sounds good. With that much light and plenty of basement space, I reckon you're crazy doing this in soil. I'm using LED but otherwise a fairly similar set up but instead of pot it's hydro, not the DWC stuff you see but similar. Perhaps you should think of doing one it would blow your...

How many plants do you intend to begin the grow, and is it under lights or outdoors.

It's what they do.

I recently won a Mars TS2000 in a comp and so I can recommend the MarsTS1000 as a superb item for the money. 4A at 36V so 144W and draws about 165 at the wall. It uses a board like a quantum board but even more spread out. The driver is not as well made as the Meanwell and it gets a little bit...

Yeah it sounds good, as you say it's not a competition the primary aim is direct knowledge. I get what you say about trimming them, however you may as well forget about it because the reality is that they will all go out of sync you never really know what is going to occur. I just harvested my...

I'd be happy to participate in an auto Mephisto grow but it would have to be done right... The most important aspect of these types of things for me is to have a clear goal and to extract some new first hand knowledge at the end. For example to test a contentious myth like topping or what you...

Oh that's sounds like it could be a good candidate, maybe I can organise a sour crack grow party.

This is a D.P Orange Bud Auto but it expressed a plum and diesel phenotype. It's too pretty to chop down in one go so I'm doing it in stages. The long goodbye.

I've got a couple of Mephisto a Sour Crack and a Triangle Kush, I'll see what they're supposed to do. I always get at least three of anything so I can test stuff. I'd like to get a plant that is definitely recommended not to top, just to see. From what I've seen topping just gives you a better...

The final way I've settled on is sowing a dry seed into an eazy plug, soak the plug mash the hole a bit and bury the seed a few millimetres, cover and put in a dark place not too cold and they'll be up in a few days and ready to put into anything from clay to soil. Soaking the seeds is entirely...
