    Abundancy Problem

    Hi, i remember when i got the problem with the 100% RO-Water years ago, i went to an aquarium-dealer to tell him my problem (when you got an aquarium at home, you need to manage the pH too.). He explained to me the "hardness" in the tap water: i don´t remember every detail but there are 2...

    Abundancy Problem

    hi, 100% RO is not an option... you won´t get a stable pH because you have no Calcium in the water... trust me i´ve tried it years ago... the pH will drop to 4 and trying to raise it with pH+ will only help for few hours... and it will cause a massive Calcium deficiency... They main problem is...

    Abundancy Problem

    Hi, i am a romanian grower for 5 years and I think its my 11th grow now. I started directly with a hydro system (aeroflow – I think its more a nft than a hydro system) and I still have many problems. So I hope I can get some useful information here. But first my setup: 1 x 400W HPS Lamp 1 x...

    EC drives me crazy

    ok, but the point is that i´m in the last flowering week but there is no brown hair and the ec is raising. I thought a raising ec indicates that 1. water is evaporating because of high temperature 2. the plants do not "eat" enough... can anybody explain to me why my plants dont get finish and...

    EC drives me crazy

    hi, i´m in the end of flowering (last week) but all the little hairs are still white:shock:... look at the pictures: the strain is an AutoMazar (Dutch Passion). At the beginning i had some trouble with Magnesium deficiency (now i don´t) and temperature (above 30°C). i guess because of the...

    a GOOD GROWER KNOW his plants

    ok, i have forgotten to tell: when i put the ec of the fresh nutrient solution exactly at 1.8, it is NOT stable. sometimes the plants behave like discribed in 1. and sometimes like in 2. so there ist no balance at level 1.8 thats why i don´t understand my plants....

    a GOOD GROWER KNOW his plants

    Hi, i have a question according to the ec level: people say that a good grower know his plants. i have experienced that, when i mix a new nutrient solution, my plants react in two ways: when the ec level of the fresh nutrient solution is ABOVE 1.8, the plants will consume more water and...

    Hi, to avoid misunderstandigs: i grow with a nft-system, so its hydroponic or aeroponic (don´t know exactly how to classify the aeroflo system). I´m not growing in soil. I experienced in my first grow that using only water from reverse osmosis doesn´t work because the pH is not stable and...

    Hi, i´ve read in different books that the optimal pH-value for hydro and aeroponics ist between 5.2 to 6.2... i manipulate the nutrient solution until i get into this interval. would you recommend a specific value? I have read a lot about the "optimal pH" and i´m quiet confused: i´ve found...
