    HELP! First grow round two...In Waterfarm

    I guess the worst thing to do at this point is start changing a lot of things. With that being said would you suggest to gently excavate rapid rooter to maker sure roots are still growing and to plant (gently) back into waterfarm a littler deeper. I was thinking about raising light some in order...

    HELP! First grow round two...In Waterfarm

    Thanks guys for the thoughts and suggestions. I get the principal of how the water farm works. I just couldn’t see how the roots could possibly get any water from just the drip rings at this point... thus I would keep watering from my bottle. I am also using a second air line to each water farm...

    HELP! First grow round two...In Waterfarm

    Edit: You might want to change the word hydrofarm to waterfarm in your post's title so that it'll catch the attention of waterfarm enthusiasts. Thanks for the advice. I did make the change in my title.

    Help! Seeds Germanated but dried up in clay pellets.

    Okay I had all night to sleep on as long this information and I have managed to come up with one more dumb question. Once the little girls have been started in the rapid rooters and get some growth on their side and I go to put them in my wf do I plant the whole rapid rooters into my hydroton...

    Help! Seeds Germanated but dried up in clay pellets.

    Man this is all great information. I wished I had it in my head about a week ago. I have been staked out on the internet search engines and many forums since Oct. while I purchased my setup equipment and educated myself. I ran across many detailed step-by-step hydroponic systems very similar to...

    Help! Seeds Germanated but dried up in clay pellets.

    Yes I drilled many extra holes in the top pots. I have not changed out the air pumps nor have I ran another air hose with air stone down into my bottom buckets which if I understand correctly is another wf mod. I am open to all suggestions. Thanks again. I have more seeds that I can germanate...

    Help! Seeds Germanated but dried up in clay pellets.

    Thanks for this tip. Once I feel that I have a better game plan I am going to start a couple more seeds and had thought I would transfer my Germanated seeds to Rock Wool and place that into my clay pebbles in my water farm.

    Thanks Dog. In reading other post I see there are several Water Farm guys on here. Unfortunately none have stopped by here to offer advise. Is there a way to PM someone if you have their user name? Jypsy Dog thanks for dropping by I was beginning to think my post was invisible.

    Help! Seeds Germanated but dried up in clay pellets.

    Excuses all the details but I want everyone to have enough information to make an informed conclusion. I have a 4X4 grow tent. Two water farms (using clay pellets for growing medium) and a viparspectra 900W LED light. I germanated 2 seeds in damp paper towel and tap root popped in about 3 days...
