    Plants growing too slow??

    No, leaves don't 'suck chlorophyll out of your buds.' If anything, allowing leaves to remain on your buds will make them taste grassy. Remove the leaf and they will dry faster. You don't want to smoke much leaf anyway... Because you've vegged them so long and allowed them to get so tall, those...

    Thermonuclear weapons? Dunno. It'd be very hard to affix a heating element to glass. If the thimble you use is stainless steel, it shouldn't flavour it. no wucking furries. :) coolio. :) farm out, mang. :) check discount shops for the plastic pots, see if they're blowing out the ones in...

    To aero garden or not....

    Does that include all the stems and leaf? Is that dry weight? Sorry, but this looks awful. Typical result of flowering with fluoros.

    To aero garden or not....

    Sure there's a learning curve, but I don't really see Aerogardens as being fantastic teaching aids. If anything, they kinda truncate the learning curve. This is the part I don't get; Aerogarden evangelists will absolutely defend them to the death, while the guy who plunked down $119 for a...

    To aero garden or not....

    yep, that's the nut. Aerogardens simply don't suit the plant size and light requirements for cannabis. Probably good for small quantities of leafy kitchen herbs ie basil, but I can grow that in a modified discarded soft drink bottle with some garden soil, effectively for free. I have a hard...

    Roots Showing!?!?!? Unhealthy Hydro Need Help!!!!

    Well, the last time I priced some 3%, it was about $3.00 for a 250ml bottle. If 3% of that 250ml is pure H2O2 and 97% is water, you're getting 7.5ml of H2O2 for your $3, which maths out to $400 per litre of pure H2O2. I get 25L jugs of 50% for $125. There's 12.5L of pure H2O2 in that 25L, at...

    As long as there's no stabiliser in it, should be OK to use. However, if there's no stabiliser in such a low concentration H2O2 soln, it may not have the concentration you are expecting as it may be breaking down while still on the shelf.

    Could be, could be other things too, just can't tell without pix, sorry, :( There's no thread for that one, just a post about it: https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/12079-homemade-vaporizer.html#post119569 :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Roots Showing!?!?!? Unhealthy Hydro Need Help!!!!

    The problem is that we don't know for sure what organic components are in FloraNova. If they specify that it is part organic, SOME part of the stuff will be broken down by H2O2. This might appear as nutrient deficiencies, depending upon what part of the FloraNova is being decomposed. It's much...

    45 days of vegging and still no roots?

    Roots are browned or tan in appearance. Oh, I'm looking at cuttings? They won't have any roots to rot. However, the yellowing I see looks like the stem tips are rotting. This is a persistent problem with aerocloners and is also exactly why I don't use them. unwanted growth... of? I don't...

    Roots Showing!?!?!? Unhealthy Hydro Need Help!!!!

    Just a note about FloraNova- it is partly organic, meaning it is incompatible with H2O2. Use a fully inorganic nutrient instead if you intend to control pathogens and oxygenate roots with H2O2.

    How to start a drip irrigation

    If you put an overflow fitting on the tray and fill/drain through the two holes by using a tee fitting, it should work fine. Automating watering is a very desirable thing and not that hard to do. Loss of plants or damage from wilting them through forgetting to water sucks ass. Don't put...

    the percentage of pure H2O2 in the solution. Hydro shops are the most expensive, try foodservice equipment suppliers (they'll have 35% grade, which is applied at 1.7ml/L) or chemical supply houses, which will have 50% grade. Yes, that's the chemical formula, but you don't get H2O2 from bubbling...

    I had a look; don't use netpots in this system. Replace them with standard solid wall pots with drain holes, as you might use for soil. If the RW cubes with roots poking out of their bottoms are 1/2" above the flood level, the roots will find the damp pellets with no problems. I'd flood...

    Roots Showing!?!?!? Unhealthy Hydro Need Help!!!!

    The roots are seeking upward because it's too wet below. RW is highly absorbent and can not tolerate frequent watering. Your droop is likely root rot beginning, due to overwet media. Watering from the top means you have nice yummy plant food and water on a medium that is exposed to light. Any...
