    Is this Negative Pressure Overkill??

    If your tent is big enough, have the fan inside to control the noise a bit.

    Is this Negative Pressure Overkill??

    4/1 ratio is a bit overkill. 4/3 to 4/2 at most would be ok. I believe the neg pressure is just so you dont have unwanted smells escaping out of your tent. If you have a 400+ cfm out and only a 100cfm intake your tent will have a lot of stress as its trying to implode!

    Any tips on lowering humidity?

    A MH can only be on during the lights on period where most of the humidity problem is during lights off. I am curious though, does it need to be a MH or will HPS lower the humidity further during light hours?

    Any tips on lowering humidity?

    The fan controller I have ensures the fan can't turn off even when the temp drops below my target. I am about to add the 4th 600w hps next week, do you think that'll help? Mudslide9791, what dehumidifier do you have bud?

    Pythium fear

    Hi people. I've got a dwc with insufficient cooling (this will be changed). The water temperature is 21c -25c from what I remember pythium can come about when water temps get to 21c. My problem is deciding what to do.. I've got 12 babies and theyve had a rough start to life, also with the fear...

    Sorry to hear about your girl and son mate. I personally wouldnt prune the roots. I've allways found them to go crazy aslong as you have low ppm.

    Nutrient question for recirculating dwc

    I've got a float valve to keep mine topped up from the res too (very easy). I do like your idea tho Shafto. If I hadn't just upgraded my setup I would have gone for this under current dwc just for the fact the water can be drained and fill soo quickly but I am happy with mine. Can't wait to...

    PLEASE HELP 1st WEEK IN DWC GROW FOR 1st TIME GROWER PLEASE HELP

    Pics would be good at this point. When you see the roots looking bigger and branching out, you can add your 1/4 nutes. I would probably add a little less than a quarter for the first few days just to be safe and give any babies that havent finished flushing a better chance of survival. Don't...

    First Grow advice , DWC, Big Bang from seed. Tell me what you think!

    Looking good. I wouldnt worry about your PH at 6.0 it's pretty much perfect just keep an eye on it. They are about the right size for using the lights that you are. If you want them to get bigger faster then put your 600w in there, they'll definatly take off! How do the roots look and have you...
