This afternoon I read through a semi-current Uncle Ben thread, I usually avoid them due to the bickering. But there were a couple of gem links I'd like to share here.
This is a list of agro myths. It specifically deals with landscape plantings but I'm sure many points transfer, and it's written by a PhD on the subject which add some cred to it. http://www.puyallup.wsu.edu/~Linda Chalker-Scott/Horticultural Myths_files/index.html It has made me rethink about the use of bloom enhancers.
This is a list of Nutes that have been pulled from the shelf in Oregon, most are because there isn't full disclosure on the ingredients, some have specific problems. http://www.nwgt.org/showthread.php?7952-What-the-hell-do-people-in-OR-use-for-nutrients Kinda makes you wonder what's really in your nute soup.

Shiva, If you've never run a hempy with a soil cap, I think you'll see several improvements over the straight perlite. I've run several with straight FFoF from 1" above the hole up.
This one turned out really well. But I found that I got the same results with just a 2" soil cap, and perlite being cheaper than soil and recyclable, it pushed me that direction.

Hello Again,
so I've set up our Hempy grow directory. I'm hoping some of the Hempy fans here will add links to their own grows.
It may work well, it be be crap, we'll see. LOL
Link your Hempy Grow

Good to hear Watt as all of my plants for this round were started in dirt. I will be growimg some with just a soil core and some with all ffof except the reservoir which will be chunky perlite. Im excited to try it.

These boys I sell for their product smells delish but idk if its the way they cure or what but their smoke isn't so strong. They cute using those daisy curing rack tube things... So much for the thousands they spent on advanced

big spike in temps i think and no use of h2o2 could have had something to do with it.

Usually I associate root-rot with DWC systems, I think you may just have been unlucky.
I forget, what substrate and bucket size are you using Welsh?

Back to cloning for a second. I checked on my clones this morning and see that the qrazy train is an amazingly fast rooter! That being said, for some reason it seems these heating mats always keep the middle warm and toasty and the outside areas are colder and wet. Anyone has a solution to this problem or a bigger and better heating mat they use?
Edited:
Solution to my problem, pull out the 2 CFLs for light and replace with the 250 watt mh above high. Temps in a better range!

Hey WoH,
I'm itching to start my next hempy in earnest and wanted to see about advice, for those of you who enjoy planning a grow. I can start a new thread (let me know moebius) that can be linked to the hempy grow links thread that was just started (thanks world.of.hempy!), or we could do it right here (but that seems like it'll clog things up).
I'm just planning on listing my limitations and getting as much feedback as possible on good routes to take.
Get back at me if you're interested and I'll start the thread!

Dank ... Clones root best under weaker light. ... A 250w may be too much, the clone will want to grow itself, as opposed to just growing roots.
I'm guessing youre talking about 'propagator cloning'. Do you have that piece of material that sits above the heatpad? Its supposed to be kept moist to dissipate the heat evenly.

I don't think so. What does it look like?
Edited:
I have the 250w MH far above the clones. Would it still cause an issue if it was 2-3' above the top of the tray? I just turned it on to keep a stronger ambient temp in the tent.

A few days ago I had my ac unit set on fan so the temps got really high. I came in the veg room and it looked like someone ripped half the clones out of the holes of the ezclone machines. Could it be the pressure or what? I was so puzzled!

Its a cloth type material.
Its called 'Capillary Mat' or 'Propagator Capillary Water Matting' .... A search of these words will find it.
edit:
re 250W .. The problem is for cloning, that you want the root-zone slightly warmer not the whole cab. A gentle heat from below is what you want. ..... + higher humidity to minimize transpiration.

DrJ, just post what you have in mind for your grow set-up, if someone see's a problem I'm sure they will let you know, once you have a grow goin' then you can link what's happening.
Ya mean it wasn't the LONE RANGER sheriff
