    bud candy in DWC

    Off point a little but here is a response from AN regarding piranha. The first line. All of our nutrients can be used in RDWC. In relation to your question, piranha can absolutely be used in a deep water culture situation. The reason we provide such a wide spectrum of fungi species is so that...

    How do you germinate your clones for dwc?

    Don't waste your money on shop bought cloners. Made this to see how well they worked and booom! Clones in less than 10 days with nothing but tap water and a dip in rooting powder. This setup is small and a bit messy but now I know I works really well im gonna make a big one maybe 30 to 50...

    2 x 1000w 400v de hps In a 1.2 x 2.4 x 2 tent??? Anybody tried this?

    Thanks for the reply I've been using the old 600w hps we for about 15 years so I feel I really know how to use them, being in the UK my biggest issues is stealth and with these his lights growing in a tent heat also poses a problem. Now my thinking with the 1000w de lights is they are adjustable...

    2 x 1000w 400v de hps In a 1.2 x 2.4 x 2 tent??? Anybody tried this?

    Seems simple enough and I'm in the UK so your spot on. I will go though the part lists when I return to work and let you know if I can get all parts here. I would love to get into the manufacture of these. At the min our main business is custom computer enclosures like mil spec and bellow decks...

    2 x 1000w 400v de hps In a 1.2 x 2.4 x 2 tent??? Anybody tried this?

    I dont use ac as i would only need it for a few weeks of the year here in the uk summers are well.... SHIT! ha I would usually just dim the lights on the hotter days. How much do think 1500w -1600w of led lighting to cover my size tent would cost?

    2 x 1000w 400v de hps In a 1.2 x 2.4 x 2 tent??? Anybody tried this?

    led scares the shit out of me as i have never used it and to be honest is very expensive compared to the lights im looking at £175 with ballast reflector and a dual spec bulb. Can you recommend a LED setup in this price range which will be as good or better in performance than the 1000w de...

    Ph fluctuates with air stones off/on

    What type of system? I Run RDWC and dont have the problem you describe. what nutes are you using as most have buffers to help with ph. i Dont use RO though as my tap water is only 35ppm and never had any issues with it.

    Leaves dying from bottom up

    As stated above wait untill they are dry at least on top before watering again, use 2l plastic or glass bottles to store your mixed nutes in and store them somewhere cool and dark to prevent algea growing. There are some good nutes out there that will hold a ph with buffers so it should'nt be a...

    Leaves dying from bottom up

    Real bad pics but i would say prob not enough N maybe? try giving her some stronger nutes and maybe feed less but more often(once a week just doesn't sound enough to me) But you really need some better pics for more assistance. Try taking images with a normal house light on rather than the hps...

    Liquid PH testing kit

    It will work fine it i have used them many times before and checked its against a digital meter and it does not have an effect on it.

    Does weed that's already dark purple turn darker if introduced to cold temperatures or stay same?

    Cooler temps can have an effect on colour but imo your best just keeping your temps in the correct range, extreme temps will stress your plants and for a bit of colour its not worth it. Happy Growing!!

    Ventilation advice needed please

    Hay i Grow in a tent and like you stealth is a must, I use a standard 5 inch duct fan or ruck type fan for extraction. you do not need a intake fan really but it does help, i ran my tent for many years using only a extraction fan, Doing it this way will insure you have a negative pressure...

    Help with slow growth

    CA$365 ish but good lights, what systems on amazon are you on about? like i said i'm gonna change my light system soon from 2 x 600w single ended hps/mh. Would either be looking at 2 x 630w CMH or 600w/1000w de hps as i believe these to be better. 260 sounds cheap if thats CA? What watts and...

    Help with slow growth

    I would say you need more powerful lights, Can you not put a 400w or 600w hid light in there or would heat be an issue? 600w hps for flower and 400w mh or 600w mh for veg and things move much much quicker. genetics can play a part as well and if you top or any hst this will slow growth for a...
