My tap is 7, and with 5ml of grow/pro-tekt they seem to stay at the same "color" on the scale. I only have a chemical drop test. :)

I'm getting a runoff PH of around 6-6.5. Is that the range I want to be in?

Alright HB. All locked and loaded. If this works out I'll have to send you some scotch or something. Or do you brew that as well? :)

That place was like a friggin candy store. I can't believe it's been there only 4 minutes away and I've never been! I only have the 2 girls, so judging by how heavy it is, this thing should last me quite a while!

I just called the shop in town and they say they have 1 bale of Pro-Mix HP left for $51. Is that on point? Seems pretty pricey. You said it was reusable?

Would you say the pro-mix would trump soil for simplicity? I think there's a little hydro shop in town I could check out. Also, which pro-mix product specifically?

To be honest, I picked it up to avoid the PH issues associated with soil and have had trouble with it all along the way. I've changed out nutes three times assuming that was the problem. I have a good lamp, lots of circulation, and I check on 'em every single night. I've seen people use mediums...

It's a hempy bucket. The water falls into a reservoir at the bottom, so I should really never have an overwatering issue. And presumably, I shouldn't be having PH issues. Here is the pot I use, so I am able to see when it dries up...

HB, I hope you're still keeping an eye on this thread. I'm completely at my wit's end. I started using DG when I popped these two girls, but I just cannot seem to get it right. I'm using 100% perlite hempys, and PH is fine. Temps stay below 75, and I am feeding with every watering at 1/2 tsp...

That's exactly what I started out with. 1 full dropper of grow and pro-tekt (1/2 tsp/gal) for my 2 in veg, and 2 full droppers of bloom and pro-tekt (1 full tsp/gal) for the 2 under the HPS. From your earlier comment, it sounds like I should perhaps mix the bloom and grow for the flowering...

HB could you give an idea of your DG feeding schedule/quantities? I picked up some pipette style eye droppers which hold approx. 1/2 tsp each to make liquid ferts easier. I have grow, bloom, and pro-tekt. When I tried Jack's in hempy I had nothing but trouble.

Thanks HG. My Christmas gift to myself is going to be a 4'x4' grow tent and a 600w light, for about 4-5 buckets. I started very basic, with CFLs and a Technaflora "starter" nute kit. I was overwhelmed using so many different products, because I subscribe to your school of thinking, that usually...

Homebrewer - Would you say there was any advantage for DG over Jack's? Specifically for passive hydro (hempy).
