Yea, it's a modified Nutrient Film Technique (NFT). We just use cloner sprayers to oxygenate the water better. This is considered a "Closed-loop" system vs. a "drain-to-waste" system.

That's great to hear! Are you still using Botanicare Nutes? I've tried everything but always end up going back to my original recipe. The plants grow better, smell better and taste amazing. I've done full organic for years but it just doesn't have the intensity of flavor I get from the...

The bottom tote is the reservoir. The top tote drains into the bottom res.

So true! 6 little plants would only only last me a month or so. Even my last 6 medium sized plants aren't going to cut it. I smoke alot!! lol

Funny you should say that. I was thinking about designing a hydro/coco, drain-to-waste grow and writing an article on it.

True, to properly run a perpetual aero system you need a lot of plants. In Oregon, medical patients can have 6 mature plants and 18 immature. We can only have a maximum of 4 patients per grow so the most mature plants I can have in one place is 24. That's why my last system held 8 plants...

If you read my posts you'll find I've always been a big promoter of different growing methods. I tried most methods and there's always good and bad points to each. I used to think that organically grown soil produced the best tasting flower. I've been growing 100% organic for the last few...

Actually this is a great system if you follow the directions. It's so much easier to grow in aero than soil! You know exactly what PPM and ratio your nutes are at. If something goes out of balance you can drain the res and start clean. If you add lots of light and CO2 nothing can touch the...

In my own personal room I have Dog Walker, Kosher Kush, Mendo Breath, Afgoo, Veterans Kush and Durban Poison. Veterans Kush is the best strain on earth. I prefer Myrcene dominant strains lately.

36 would be too much, all you need is 1 or 2 plants to fill the entire space.

I'd stick with organic live soil if you plan on using a light-dep greenhouse. It's hard but the quality is the best by far. I'm currently writing a new book on growing using 100% organic growing methods. Basically I'll take you through the entire process from seed to store.

Russet Motherfuckers Watch out for russet mites! They are too small to see with the naked eye so you have to look for the effects. The first sign is leaves that curl, twist or bend in weird directions. The plant's growth will slow and soon after the plant will die. There are a lot of bad pests...

You're stoked bro! Once you get the system dialed in it's amazing! I've never seen growth rates that can match aeroponics.

The Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Expert Recipe is the best. https://content.botanicare.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/PBProBloomFeedSheet.pdf My buddy has had good luck with Botanicare Kind line of nutes. https://content.botanicare.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/KINDFeedSheet.pdf

It's not something I'd be too concerned about bro. Overall the plants look pretty healthy. Your nutes might be a little hot for this strain. You might try reducing the PPM a little (but not by much). If your buds are coming out nice then don't change a thing. You're more likely to make it worse...

700 scale measures KCI or potassium chloride, 500 scale measures NaCl or sodium choloride. USA is usually 500, UK is 700. I wouldn't worry too much about it though. Just watch your plants and they'll tell you what they like. Start at 500 ppm. Some strains are hungry and will want more right...

We'll have seeds in Oregon stores this Spring.

In all honesty bro the only thing that really matters is genetics. Anyone can buy a bag of Happy Frog soil, use any off-the-shelf nutes and end up with good weed (if you have the right strains). All the Dope Cup winners were 100% organic soil farmers. Indoor or light-dep is the best quality...

Yea it's hard to believe this thread is still around! I'm glad you're able to find a successful method that works for you. The ONLY thing that matters to me is that people grow their own weed. Soil, hydro, coco, DWC, DTW, aero... it's all good to me!
