I have been wanting to try extracts for a while now, and I have been doing a lot of reading on the topic. While I would love to be able to do CO2 or butane extraction, I do not have the equipment needed to do that. Ethanol, and Isopropyl Alcohol are the most common method of extracting...

I am just curious about those that use hydroguard as their only beneficial organism additive. Does your water turn cloudy a few days after adding it to your reservoir?

About a month ago I had been having trouble with an infection that had taken over my dwc grow. Even after 3 times of hsving the issue and bleaching everything, it would come back. The water would turn cloudy just 3 days after disinfecting it with bleach and several reservoir changes. So I...

Being a scientist, I am always wanting to know exactly how much of each nutrient my plant is getting. I purchased a soil test kit for my mother plant that is in soil. It occurred to me that I could use it to test my nutrient solution in my dwc setup. Has anyone tried this? The kit is supposed...

Has any one used Vegamatrix Prime Zyme in your setup? I just purchased a bottle from my local hydroponics store because they were out of hygrozyme. Does it work as well as the other top shelf enzyme additives?

So, I am stoned so bear with me. I am trying to figure out how to calculate the additional cost in power when growing. Is this correct? ((wattage * hours * days)/(1000))(0.08498 ) So in this example, I am using my actual rate for power at 8.8498 cents per kilowatt hour. If I wanted to know...

This may seem like a stupid question, but here goes any way. I have a recirculating system which totals about 10 gallons. This is the control bucket, and the grow bucket. Then I have a 20 gallon reservoir that gravity feeds the control bucket with a float valve. My question is: Do I mix the...

I just harvested my blackberry grow. This grow took way to long because I had slacked a lot and some neglect was involved. In the end however, I ended up with a great harvest. I will get a dry weight hopefully in the next few days seeing as the humidity in this state is in the low teens.

I am curious about something. What do you look for when buying seeds? Personally I used to just look at THC content like that was the only attribute anyone should care about. Now I actually read the descriptions, the smell, the effects, colors and many other attributes. So what is it about a...

This whole week end has been wasted. I got a cold on friday and it is still with me now. Somebody needs to science up some medical cannabis for the common cold! Am I right?

I started out growing because it meant all the weed I could smoke. Then I began to enjoy growing more than smoking, and the money was just icing on the cake. Why do you grow? Is it just fun? Is it for profit? or is it both?

This latest grow I have started will be done using the scrog method. It will be my first ever attempt at scrog let alone any sort of lst. I have a few questions. 1. What materials are preferred for the screen? 2. Does the shape of the screen matter? 3. What height relative to my plant should...

Ever be working on your plant, and get a face full of sticky. I think some went up my nose. This shit is strooooong!.

So, Something has been bothering me for a little while now, and this will sound silly, but can I ask for my UserName to be capitalized ?

I cloned my recent grow and decided to make a mother out of her. I will be honest, I am not very good at soil and I have a few questions. 1. How do I check the pH using a meter or strips. At first thought it seems like a straight forward answer, but: Do I test the run off water? Do I stick...

I have been growing off and on for a while now. My method of choice is RDWC. I have been using GH GMB at a 1:1:1 ratio. My question is about the different nutrient schedules out there. Which gives better results vs the other? Such as the 1:1:1 method vs the lucas formula which I believe is...

I will be starting up another grow soon using a recirculating DWC system. I plan on setting up a scrog on this go around since I am only growing a single plant, and I want to maximize my yields. I am going to ditch the tent this time and convert one of my rooms in my basement into a grow room...

Hey guys, I have been out of the growing game for a while now, and I just recently started to get back into it. I notice that most of my pics from my grow journals are gone. Is there any way to recover those?

I have been out of the growing scene for almost 6 years. I now have the opirtunity to start growing again. For this grow I am starting some Fem Black Berry seeds. I will be using a DWC setup with a drip ring. The nutrients are General Hydroponics Grow, Micro, Bloom. SPECS: lighting: 400W HID...

Hello forum people. I'm back after a 4 year break from growing. After moving around the state a bit I am in a position again to set up a grow room, and of course I will be doing DWC. I've had great results in the past using that method and I hope to have more great grows in the future. Expect...
