    Nice one. What should my cycle timer be on for my atomiser/mist maker?

    Best medium for starting seeds in Aeroponics?

    Hey guys, I tried posting this is the hydro/aero forum but no one seems to have an answer. The title says it all really. I have a 20 pot X-Stream Aeroponic cloner that I'd like to germinate some seeds in, it comes with cloning collars that are about 1/2 inch thick, which obviously won't get...

    Hey guys, The title says it all really. I have a 20 pot X-Stream Aeroponic cloner that I'd like to germinate some seeds in, it comes with cloning collars that are about 1/2 inch thick, which obviously won't get the seeds wet or support them for the first week. What is the best medium for...

    Growth Stopped/Stunted on 5-6th week of veg now 8th week!

    Funny you say that though mate, one of the plants before had rootrot and I've grown a few times before so I know what it looks like/feels like and these two pictured just seem to be died that colour, they are perking up now after hydrogen peroxide & cannazym liquid. I'm wondering it it was just...

    Growth Stopped/Stunted on 5-6th week of veg now 8th week!

    The bottom girl looks like a Nitrogen Def. Just got some today in the mail so hopefully she will sort her self out (literally hasn't grown for 3 weeks. The biggest plant (which looks like a total mess right now just got super cropped to expose new sites as I removed the main wilting fan leaves...

    Growth Stopped/Stunted on 5-6th week of veg now 8th week!

    * * * Pics in post below * * * I've been vegging a few plants for 7-8 weeks and they are about 3ft tall and 2-3 ft wide. 3 of my biggest ladies drooped after draining/refilling my hydro buckets and have not grown at all in 3 weeks. Turns out I somehow messed up the PH in those two buckets...

    Hey dude. First of all I just wanted to drop in and say your pictures look amazing. You seem a lot more knowledgeable then a lot of the other GTH growers so I thought I'd ask a few questions. I was wondering how long you vegged that Ghost Train plant you posted on Gladstone's grow journal...

    Cool Tubes - Help!

    Hey guys, I've got a 6 x 8 ft area with 3 x 600w cool tubes, being cooled by a 5" 280 m3/hr fan. I currently have the "S" shape series setup, however the tubes obviously get progressively hot (especially the 3rd which is practically the same heat as it would be without the fan). This makes my...

    Cool tubes or nah?

    Perfect thank you man! You give some of the best answers I've seen on the forum. What do you think about having 3 x 600s in series? Will the 3rd one be dramatically hotter even if I use a pretty heavy duty fan? So I've decided on 5" due to your advice, how powerful are we talking fan wise & is...

    Cool tubes or nah?

    Most likely 5 x 6 x 6 but I have an 8 x 8 ft area to work with, should I need extra space. I'll have 3 x 600w lights, I'm wondering if these will cool it down too much in the winter (UK), especially taking into account that the place I'm doing it in has 1 inch walls. If it isn't and I end up...

    Cool tubes or nah?

    I've found these on Ebay - 6" http://goo.gl/u2ChvS 5" http://goo.gl/4jxGvz Will they provide a decent amount of reflection, when compared to say the praying mantis hoods?

    Cool tubes or nah?

    I've been recommended to use cool tubes by a fair few people now, however I've also seen people say they have terrible/uneven light coverage due to the small reflector. According to a few posts I've seen, the lower temperatures produced by the tubes stimulate denser bud growth and therefore...

    3 x 600w - 8 x 8 x 6ft DWC Grow - How many plants?

    Ok brilliant. Last thing... Do I need reflective covers for the cool tube lamps? I see a lot of people using them without. I'm planning on ordering 3 of these. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HZKRB3W?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_2&smid=A1E8PJBD55PDAR

    3 x 600w - 8 x 8 x 6ft DWC Grow - How many plants?

    3 x 400w lights, or four for 5 x 6? Supposing I went for something bigger like 6 x 7 or 6 x 8? Really appreciate your insight!

    3 x 600w - 8 x 8 x 6ft DWC Grow - How many plants?

    Perfect. The side bud production lamps were actually on my list of things to get, however I'm working with a £1,000-1500 monitary budget & a 3,000 w power allowance so I wanted to check that I'm right in thinking the ballasts power the cool tubes with no extra power consumption? If so that's...

    3 x 600w - 8 x 8 x 6ft DWC Grow - How many plants?

    Awesome, thanks for the info. Although I seem a bit rusty and am asking all these questions I've grown 2 lots of really nice bud (3-4 plants) and one that was half decent (my first 2 plants), so I'm gonna take a small jump this time and go with what you've said (larger plants, probably 4-6)...

    3 x 600w - 8 x 8 x 6ft DWC Grow - How many plants?

    Sounds good, I'll use that as my goal. Slightly off topic but is documenting my grow on here bait? I see most of the people doing it are from CA/CO and other MM states. I always document them for myself but it would be great to get some tips along the way, as well as generally be apart of the...
