of what?
Yes the us is retarded, this we know.
Considering I was born in and lived in the US for the first 30-odd years of my life, I got used to the idea of American retardation some decades ago.
Yo al,i had 1 yellow dot on one of my leaves (camera phone too crappy to get in closer to see),but when i checked on it today it had like very light yellow specs on it,but the 1 yellow dot is the darkest9 or brightest)..seedlings are only 2weeks old..riu buddy said probably nothing to worry bout,but im gettn 2nd opinion on this to be sure.
If you want my opinion, I'll need pix, otherwise I'm just guessing.
#2 i changed the water in res. Today as well because there was a "white film" floating on top of res. (kinna like when i get my 7 yr old out of tub from playing outside all day he leaves a ring around the tub) except this ring is white lol..any thoughts?
Could be lots of things, but pathogen activity (i.e. pythium, fusarium) generally appears as a gelatinous gack
in the water, not stuff floating
on it. If you see a ring of stuff in your tank above the waterline, it's probably dried nutrient salts.
Is there a reason you haven't set up a flood table for your clones? I got 5/5 germination from bag and are now in RW cubes. But from what I understand it's going to be 2 months before I can sex. And being lazy (which you claim you are
), I don't see why one would spend the time hand watering clones? Or in my case little babies.
The amount of water one must give to clones prior to setting root is VERY fiddly and quite often changes on a plant-by-plant basis. One day, some cubes may be very dry by watering time but others may still be rather toward the wet side. Once they've set root, their water requirements go WAY up. Prior to setting root, handwatering is the only way to go if you want high success rates. Once they've popped out a decent spray of roots, it's much more possible to automate watering. Automating a way of putting 10-15ml of water on each of 30 clones (in my case) is downright difficult albeit possible in some manner, but I have yet to work out a way for an automated system to pick up a clone and judge the amt of water that clone needs by weight. If you can work it out, let us all know!
Thanks for the support man... it's a bummer...
But HTG is going to make it right... even in my opinion...
They are shipping me the order I placed... with the cool tube...
That's as good as you can expect, I reckon.
But told me to go ahead and keep the stuff here as a spare... (170 bucks in shipping explains that one...)
So I get a spare ballast and hood... taped and banged up but free (for my hassle) I guess...
hey, the spare ballast is a big bonus! Can't complain about that!
Now if only the postal orifice could get the box here without smashing it, that would be fantastic...!!!!
yeah, fingers crossed...
So, I will still plan on the 170CFM centrifugal fan on the cool tube and the 265 CFM squirrel cage as the exhaust... that is what you said right..?
yep, that's what sounds best, to me anyway. My pair of 1000s in series cooltubes do OK with a 150mm, 200CFM axial- your 170 should handle your lighting OK.
