Thank you. This is my first hydro grow. Also, I can't figure out where the thread menu is and how to get on the correct thread.

This is my first waterfarm use and when I asked the hydroponics guy about the roots growing through the holes in the top res, he said to just cut them off. I assumed he knew what he was talking about and started my grow without modifying my system. I had 4 plants ready to go from the warmer and...

Thank you. That helped me figure out that I was using the wrong sized bucket. Stupid mistake, but I was stuck until I put the 2 gallons in the bottom res and saw that it went to the refill marker.

Nevermind! Duh..I was using a different caliber bucket than I thought. My bad. Sorry to waste your time.

Scotty, I am having trouble determining how much nutrients to mix per unit. When I flush it and refill it to the white line on the blue tube, it takes 5 gallons of nutrients. The directions and other posters say it takes 2 gallons of nutrients. When I put in 2 1/2 gallons, the drip ring hardly...

Could someone please tell me how many gallons of nutes they put in one waterfarm unit? When I add 2 gallons, it does not come up to the fill mark. Please, Please help.

I am having trouble determining how much nutrients to mix per unit. When I flush it and refill it to the white line on the blue tube, it takes 5 gallons of nutrients. The directions and other posters say it takes 2 gallons of nutrients. When I put in 2 1/2 gallons, the drip ring hardly has any...

I've done all these things. But, when I fill it to the fill line, it takes 5 gallons, not the 2 as per the instructions. Every time, it requires 5 gallons of nutrients to reach the fill line. What do you think is going on here?

The bucket is opaque so I can't see the where the water level is. My understanding is to fill until the water level reaches the white line on the blue hose outside the bucket. I see on your diagram that the bottom bucket is transparent but mine is not. Do I fill until the white line is reached...

This is my first time using waterfarm and the directions are confusing. It says each waterfarm holds 2 gallons of nutrients, but when I clean the unit and refill it, it takes 5 gallons of nutrient solution. The directions also say each unit contains 2 gallons for the top bucket and 4 gallons for...

I am using a 50:50 Ocean Forest and Ready Gro moisture formula in smart pots. I was advised to raise my hps (1000 watts) to the ceiling. For the past 2 years, my trichs have not turned amber and the plants are not finishing. The end result is bad stuff. I am using Growilla and feed every other...

Thanks so much for taking the time to explain this to me. I was told that buds that were not dense were not good for smoke and I should just use them for hash. You're right about the smell; when I broke it open, it had a sweet smell. It's a relief to know that the potency will be ok.

They are 67 days on the 12/12 cycle. The lights on the plants are out now, but this is a couple of views of inside the bud I sampled today.

The one kush clone that is doing really well is under overhead cfls with side lighting and are placed a short distance from the HD lamp (but doesn't get light from it.) There is one plant that has soft buds under the HD light and one that I have already composted. There is a room air conditioner...

I'm not sure it's genetics as I have one clone that is budding up perfectly, but 4 plants that have this softness. Low lights not the problem as under hps. I kept the air conditioner at 70 degress during the flowering time. Could it be humidity? It is around 60%. I just purchased a dehumidifier...

I have searched this site and can't find anything related to why buds would be soft at harvest. I checked inside for bud rot but there was nothing except normal looking buds. I am growing purple kush and had to compost my last grow as it was no good. I don't think this wlll be any good either...

Thanks to everyone for their posts. I learned a lot from each of them. You're right about the burn. I don't know if it was heat or nute burn as I was feeding them every other time, but the time when it should have been water only, I was putting in additiives like Nirvana, Open Sesame, and...

Here are some pics of the whole plants.

Each plant is 63 days flowering. I am so afraid to take one down as I took down my last grow way too soon and it was a total waste. I really would appreciate your evaluation of these trichs. Thanks.

Perfect explanation. Mine have little hairs and you saved me from insomnia tonite. Thank you, thank you.
