Fox Farm Hydro Grow
- Thread starter arj1981

I found a hydro grow chart for FF so I answered that question but the instructions say I need to use a high quality clearing solution right before week 7 and let it run for 2 cycles. What does that mean? And what clearing solution are they referring to? Also is the plant fully grown by week 13?

Clearex solution is the most popular brand people use on RIU to flush their plants.
The chart is just a general guide to get you going. I just used it as reference for nutrient concentrations. Depending on your strain it might take a couple more weeks than the chart indicates.
You can never go wrong with checking the trichomes to inicate when to start flushing. With fox farm nutrients I only flush for one week 2 cycles a day. Most people on here do it for 2 weeks. You just have to experiment yourself and learn from that.
Good luck

Oh yeah my bad. I use an ebb and flow tray for flowering so what I meant was 2 waterings per day.
I don't have any experience with DWC flushing, but I would think the concentration of clearing solution to water would be lower due to the roots being in submerged at all times. So maybe check someone elses DWC grow and see what they did specifically to flush their plants.

When you say you only flush for one week, two times a day, does that mean the tank fills up with water and drains out two times a day?
Also, ND, I was thinking about investing in an ebb & Flow system. But where do the weeds grow in this setup? Do they just fill the tank or somethin? http://growwurks.com/images/view.aspx?productId=32
