Just in case w1ckedchowda missed my reply in the last page...:bigjoint:


wow I came here to ask you Gypsy on any other spare parts, like PPM meters or other hydro nutes you'd recommend, but MANG THAT SANDART VIDEO IS AMAZING.

I love the WWII theme. I am a huge history buff and simply love everything about WWII.

Lots of emotion in that video, very touching.
I use the Hanna GroCheck... and I love it....:-P




As for nutes...

I use NSR Greenleaves Bloom Juice, Grow Juice and H2O2...

HANNA GroCheck Combo Meter




HANNA GroCheck Combo Meter - pH & TDS Meter
This is one of our favorite meters. It allows you to measure both pH and TDS (EC) at the same time, while conveniently hanging on the wall above your nutrient. The two professional quality probes are continually submerged in solution so that they have a real-time readout, without preparation or having to wait.

Although the Grocheck Combo Meter is a bit more expensive than other meters, the replaceable electrode on the probe allows for meter maintenance instead of meter replacement. Eventually it will pay for itself. Made by Hanna Instruments.

HI 981404N is ideal for agricultural, horticultural and hydroponics applications where pH and TDS levels need to be continuously monitored for optimal plantgrowth. HI 981404N continuously monitors and displays the pH and TDS values of a solution on an easy to read set of dual LCD's.

The HI 1286 gel filled pH electrode is replaceable and the BNC connector is protected behind a waterproof sheath. The unique design of the electrode guarantees greater clogging resistance in fertilizer solutions with high concentrations of phosphate, nitrate, etc.

TDS measurements are performed using the 4-4-2 conversion factor of 0.7 so you do not need to convert the readings. Equipped with a grounding bar to ensure more accurate pH measurements and longer electrode life. The HI 981404N is compact and easy to install and use. This makes it ideal for all continuous monitoring applications.

HI 981404N is supplied complete with HI 1286 pH electrode, HI 7634 TDS probe, HI 1283 grounding bar, pH and TDS calibration solutions (20 mL each), screwdriver, 12 Vdc adapter and instructions.

  • Calibration Manual at 1 or 2 points (pH); manual at 1 point (TDS)
  • Setpoint pH, adjustable from 3.0 to 7.0 pH; TDS, adjustable from 500 to 1600 mg/L (ppm) Alarm 2 LED's (1 each for pH and TDS)
  • Temp. Compensation Automatic from 5 to 50°C (41 to 122°F) (TDS only)
  • TDS Conversion Factor 0.7 ppm = 1 µS/cm
  • Probe HI 1286 interchangeable pH electrode, HI 7634 TDS probe (fixed), HI 1283 grounding bar with 1 m (3.3') cable (included)

Oooo I like, I like.

So all-in-all I'd probably average myself around $500 to get a decent ebb & flo goin?

I'm really looking forward to this. I like soil it's very easy to fix mistakes and is more forgiving, but mang I am sick of all the extra work and buying extra soil.

I need to venture into Waterworld. :-P

Yea i just bought 125 kush seeds for 375. Hoping to get some ladies.
Im getting a 100 grapefruit clones and lollipops some clones off of them to make it 200.
plus the seeds. the seeds will be vegged for 5 weeks and then put in the flowering room after sex has been found.
How many clones do you get when you lollipop like that?

That is a LOT OF SEED..:lol:

As for your question... I am not sure what you mean...

I flower 48 lollipops per 600w HPS...

I keep a stock of moms ready to donate every 2 weeks....:-P

I take BIG clones from the mothers.. and as soon as they have roots, I flower them.. Zero Veg...

That is GREAT!!!!

But if I was doing anything of that scale, I would work with CLONES ONLY...

Seeds are just not my thing.... clones are just so much more practical...

And I do crack a bean every once in a while, to get a new taste...

But the go STRAIGHT to being Moms (females) or get killed (males)...

I don't even switch the lights on them.. 24/0 till it shows sex...

you said you lollipop them right? Yea clones are better. But seeds are slow at first. But if you put it out in may it will be a tree at the end season. seeds you can transport a little easyer. But i just keep them on the side of the veg garden till sex shows them pull the males. Clones cleary better indoors. Clones are just three weeks older then the seeds. Im growing the mango seeds because i cant get mango clones. WIth 15 i should find a keeper:weed: to be a mom. Im dumb and didnt keep a couple to be moms. I didnt feel like waiting another 3 weeks after crop to get more clones. No one i know sells under 200 clones. So its kind of hard to come up with the cash when your waiting...:wall: So by the time everything is done ill have around 50-100 females ready to go into the flower room. Im still getting clones. I would never use seeds in hydro lol. Im just going to start makes clones and seeds.
They say to start flower mangos early...

You will do well... :clap:

I keep my moms for a long time...

Just last week I ditched a 2 1/2 year old mom... after readying a replacement...:-P

I just like the idea that 100% of what I grow will give me buds...lol.. I hate wasting time or money...:o

goodness i wish we COULD taste over the net lol!
You know... at the very least I wish we were not treated like marginals... so that we could trade and gift as we saw fit.. without worries of LIFE IN PRISON.. so silly...

But if TASTE is your thing... I highly recommend BC Seed King's Juicy Fruit...

BY FAR that is the tastiest strain I have ever had the pleasure of smoking...

It is soooo tasty, I keep it ALL to myself.. despite RIDICULOUS pleas and offers from friends... seriously.... IT IS my precious...:lol:







i d like to start cloning on my next grow.
Cloning is EASY.. you have NATURE'S survival instinct helping you all the way...

The plant WANTS to live... and so if you just give it MINIMAL help, it will indeed grow...:-P

I have even cloned in wet shoe laces (used and dirty).. so do not let anyone make it seem like brain surgery...lol...:-P
i d be honored if you stopped by my grow journal.
I'll be pulling up a chair...:weed:
i m in argentina, south america
I LOVE YOUR COUNTRY!!!!

VIVA ARGENTINA!!!!

I have traveled quite a bit and got to see some AWESOME PLACES...

El Camino de los Siete Lagos is probably my favorite "place".. but I must admit Bariloche was pretty kick ass too... in a totally different way of course...





I will go check both out right now...:-P

2 rooms can be VERY ADVANTAGEOUS if you want an efficient grow... dollar per dollar...

You can have moms and clones in one space and transform the flower room in to a single cola SOG...

With a 400w HPS you could easily do 36 lollipops that will give you 10~14 grams each...

You could even split it into a perpetual harvest and chop 9 lollipops every 2 weeks...

That should give the average "smoker" enough to smoke the BEST BUDS... and still have plenty to make edibles/hash/share with close ones....

I said it once and I will say it again....

"It is not the only way to grow... but when I ignored all other ways... and the lights came on... I found myself in a Sea of Green..."

If you have any interest in SOGing... I highly recommend Al B. Fuct's methods...

I followed him to the "T" and I got exactly what he gets....:-P
