Hi all, I figured it was about time to post some pics of my latest grow. Here's some facts about the grow: Seeds germinated in rockwool in a small humidity dome (with a heat pad beneath) 12/12 lighting only, as it's perpetual Bagseeds 16 ounce Solo cups, with a hole about 1" from the bottom...

Hey all, This is mostly a re-post from the DTW forum, but I wanted to post it here and post notes from my journal too.. I'm new to Hempy, and new to Hydro in general, but I kind of have the hang of it and have grown DWC and Soil before each once. I've got a single lady in 100% perlite with...

I am trying to learn more about these plants in general - I have taken a pic of one of my tops and numbered several key areas: 1/3/7 are bud sites and 2/4/5/6 are fan leaves. I am considering trimming some of the fan leaves on some of my stalks, but I am not sure how these all interact with...

Hey all, I'm new to Hempy, and new to Hydro in general, but I kind of have the hang of it and have grown DWC and Soil before each once. I've got a single lady in 100% perlite with some hydroton on top. It's in a 20 gallon rubbermaid with no lid, and a drain spigot/hose. I have a 16x16 LED...

In theory let's assume you have adequate light coverage on each and every leaf in your plant - just for a second. Now let's take a look at Yield. Yield depends on light basically, so assume that light is constant here. Now take 1 plant which is grown w/out any modifications. And then we...

I was wondering, why exactly do we change the water routinely, like once @ 2 weeks and then each week thereafter? Is it because of nutrient build-up? Is it because of mold, bacteria, algae? I was thinking about this a lot now because I just did a new startup and could not get to change...

How do you know if you have enough bubbles? I'm at day 10 and have crazy roots hanging out the bottoms of all 3 of my net cups. The longest roots are probably 6 inches and many of them have side shoots and are thickening up. It looks REALLY GOOD for week 10 and on a brand new setup I built...

Hey guys thinkin about DWC for a minute. There is the water resevoir which is mostly sealed off (can beathe only through say leaks around the lid and through the hydroton rock net cups somewhat. But no light should mean no algae, right? But what about mold?? Is this why temperature control...

I think I killed my 2 sprouts!! Alright, here's what I did. I soaked the seeds in water for a few days and finally saw sprouts. I put them into pre-pH'd Rockwool and into some net cups with Hydroton. All of this was pre-soaked to pH'd water (~6.0) and the Hydroton was rinsed hella times...

I'm having some issues germinating my seeds. They are 2+ years old for sure. They soaked for maybe 12 days and finally cracked. I let them soak on a wet paper towel for another day or so, then into the rockwool cubes they went. 7 days later and I see the taproot still. No idea how big it is...

I have a couple fans from my PC case I am planning to use to help ventilate my grow box.... The fans have these little LEDs to light up the fan and make it look cool - If those LEDs are on 24/7 even during my 12/12 dark cycle, will it screw up my plants? Will they think it is still light out...

I'm thinking this would work - Basically it uses a peltier chip which should need no introduction, so one side gets super cold and the other side hot - thus the heat sink. Anyways, this looks already pre-assembled, all I'd need to do is drill two holes (one in, one out) for some 3/8" hosing...

Is it possible or will the plant die? If the plant will die, how long from germination can it go with just water+oxygen+light? I will be using the bubbleponics system (bubblers + light water on rockwool) and will use pH balanced water initially... I want to use Nutes obviously, but I'm...

Believe it or not, I found little to nothing using Search so I'm making a new post. There's a lot of comments on this forum about GETTING a meter, but few about what kinds. So I'm trying to figure out if the ones I have here will suffice or if I need more or different meters?!? :weed...

This will be a Bubbleponics setup. Since I won't be vegging, do I really need the "Grow" nutes, or do I just need the "Micro" and "Bloom" nutes? Goal of my grow: Shortest plants possible, may be cola-only SOG.

WTF!! http://www.420scope.com/?ref=9346a350&bid=f1ec8dca $26.95!!!!!!!!! http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2179604 $12.09!! LESS THAN HALF PRICE FOR THE SAME THING (minus the cool sticker on the side)!!!! This kind of reminds me of the SH Hydro...

I'm beginning to think a perpetual setup may not be that suitable for bubbleponics. Reason being, if I have 1 plant at sproutling, 1 at 4 wks, 1 at 8wks, and one at 12wks, so I can harvest every 4 weeks, BUT, not all plants require the same nutes/amt of nutes at the same time. But if they...

Anyone using Gooseneck lamps to grow your crop?? Basically a Gooseneck cord lets you bend/flex the light to be in any location/direction. It offers the utmost in versatility and after using a power strip and Y adapters for a while now, I realize a gooseneck setup would be far superior and more...

I have two very high-level questions here: 1. I'm thinking of a simple 4-plant single res setup, and I read somewhere here that you can do MAIN COLA only grow. As I understand this, the side branches/stems are all cut off after a few weeks old and it flowers just one giant cola on the main...

I've got a super stealth grow box and I want to maximize greenspace and minimize hydrospace. So I'm thinking about using this: http://www.lionsdeal.com/wi-pl-7k.html It is only 7" deep, but I only plan to have 4 plants. If you read Roseman's guidance, it is 6 plants and 6 gallons. So...
