Heya fellas. Fired it up again for the summer. Here we go...

:bigjoint:
Looks fresh and ready for another round.
I would like to have my Hugo's in rocks like you but the weight and extra work keep me from trying. I have enough trouble keeping up with the day to day upkeep as it is.
I look forward to another round of watching and learning.
Thanks OldFrog!

Hey LB are you in the house???

Our discussion on my temps needs to continue...

I am now dealing with 24 hours of daylight... which translates into 24hours of RADIANT HEAT... regardless of the outside air temp, the walls of the house are hot to the touch...

It's kinda like a convection oven...

Anyways.. I wanna pick your brain again and SOG's before I spend any money...

Thanks Bro!!!

Looking fwd to it...

:joint::peace:

Sometimes I don't touch my hydro for 4 days, its super stable! Build it right, get lazy at night!
Yup Yup...

Aside from some failed experiments with additives... my solution is usually within 5.8 ~ 6.2 in 4 days...

And normally, it climbs gradually...

Some additives made it drop like lead daily though... so I am back to simple... :eyesmoke:

Nice, my rez does exactly the same thing, it climbs slowly up, might have to adjust it 2-3 times between 2 week interval tank changes :)

Nice Kief and bud my friend. Nice resin buildup.

Thanks Dewey!

What size res have you been running...

and your tray is the botanicare 2x4 ish???:lol:

I run big res, so I do not have to top off...

Just adjust pH when needed and change the res every 2 weeks...

Hey everyone I'm about to setup a 4x4 sog ebb and flow under my 1000. Im making the switch from soil and had a couple quick ?'s for the sog gurus here. I have been planning to run the 6in rockwool blocks but have been noticing that most people are using containers with hydroton or hygromite. Is one better than the other or is it just personal preferance. Also i have gh nutes and was going to run lucas formula for its simplicity but a friend mentioned to use Advanced sensi 2 part. Does anyone have experience with both that could steer me in the right direction?

i like hydroton cause you can flood table more often .....and the rockwool i think is like once a day with that size ......at least till they get big

i have found that more oxygen in rooting area is better .....so i would go with hydroton .....gypsybush is excellent with hydroton and rockwool .......he is the one i would recommend for info

Dok is right, I chose Hydroton so I could flood more often...

More floods mean more nutes and air reaching the root zone...

Now...

RW had great water retention properties...

Let's just say that in case of power/equipment failure, the RW will hold water for days even... making a pot full of RW great insurance, which the hydroton does not offer...

It's all compromise... always... with everything...

Can't have the best of both...:lol:

How often are you flooding with the hydroton? Also what size containers are you using for your hydroton. Would the 6 in square pots be alrite? Too big? Too small? Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere in the thread i just dont have time to skim thru all 175 pages.

quick question for all you SOG'rs out there. I have taken my clones about A week ago and they are showing sign's of root's, and I have added A small amount of nut's to them! Now how long should I wait untill they go into my flowering tray's? I was told from fresh cutting A total of 2 weeks, is this true?
