    It's A Fuct World

    That's what all the girls say. ;) Well, we certainly can't have BORING. I'll try to focus my housefly-level attention span here for a few days. Bear in mind that I'm still quite happily running the op described oh-so-long ago in Get a harvest every 2 weeks and still using the methods as...

    It's A Fuct World

    Greetings and hallucinations. Got a bit of a break from the usual grind, so I thought I'd check in. Have taken a bit of a stroll around the hydro forum. While there's some brilliant people doing brilliant things, a few folks have been drinking FarkingClueless™ by the megalitre. While I DO...

    Please oh PLEASE don't use laundry bleach in hydroponics. Just don't.

    Asked to Re-confirm

    'Proven safe'? What, did the mailer get the 'Good Dopekeeping' magazine seal of approval? And in worst case, my email address has been provided to a spammer? And I'm powerless to delete my RIU acct, to boot? Thanks for building my confidence, there, fddie. :/ I maintain that this was a bad...

    Asked to Re-confirm

    Mine exploded when I got the email from the third-party outfit. I won't be clicking on any link to a third-party website to confirm the email address I use for notifications from RIU. Unless proxied up, my IP and thus a pretty good guess as to my physical location suddenly appears in the logs...

    Asked to Re-confirm

    Sorry admin & mods, outsourcing your entire email db wasn't a good idea. I'm not well pleased and several people before me have stated precisely why.

    How Not To Grow Dope

    Stoney's been crashing on my couch. What should I stop keeping in my fridge to help him decide to move on? :D

    wtf is up with my roots? *pics*

    The whitish slimy gack is not algae. Algae is green and generally will not form where there's no exposure to light. The slimy gack is an accumulation of pythium or similar. The treatment is to dose nute solns with H2O2 50% grade at 1ml/L every 3-4 days. Important to dose the tanks with H2O2...

    Hi peepholes. Just visiting. :) Hemlock, as I've said oh-so-many times before, plants can't eat sugars. There may be some benefit to sugars in soil based systems employing organic nutes as the microbes which break down the organics into N, P & K may eat the sugars, but in such an arrangement...

    24 hours of darkness to control vertical growth

    With all due respect to Jorge, the plants will do that just by switching them to 12/12, in the same time frame he specifies.

    Bud dryer - manicured to smoke in 3 days

    Cool. :) Get a sulfur 'burner.' Stops powdery mildew dead. Improve air throughput in the op, make sure exhaust air can't be readily redrawn into the op. Don't do this. Recirculation is bad. You're trying to remove water molecules from your buds- and those need to go away and not come back...

    Not necessary. Save your $130 per copy. I can't see if these have both air intake and exhaust duct flanges- do they? As long as you can make a closed air circuit with them, drawing air into the fixture from outside the room airmass and dumping it there as well, they'll do fine. Yep, 3...

    You're most welcome. Keep at it. :)

    Thanks very much for the compliments. Glad it's working for you. :) The stunted plant is exhibiting a fault called 'rosetting,' making small leaves and little vertical growth, caused by root probs. Root disease often follows overwatering, either while still in the clonebox or later in the...

    R/O Water System Needed? I have water test results.

    I agree that the OP's water test report omits information on dissolved minerals. However, I disagree that a TDS ppm of 40 is a problem- or even 200, though that's pushing it, as that much conductivity could make the difference between a nute burn or not, depending upon how hot you run your...

    I thought I had answered your previous post. Have I missed it? Your tall plants are likely being caused by excessively high air temps. The high ceiling will help to some degree in keeping warm air away from your plants, but if you have oscillating circ fans going in the space, as well you...

    Don, thanks so much for your kind compliments. However, I fear you praise me a bit too much. I'm just a stoned slacker growing dope and helping others learn from where I've fucked it up, which I do remarkably often. Just a random name. The point is that there's 20 million ppl in Australia, as...

    nope, I don't. Mind, the q you have asked is that same as saying to an Angelino, 'Oh, you're from LA, do you know Bernie Schwartz?' :lol:
