How safe is your tap water? This database can tell you ..... If you’ve ever wondered how safe your tap water really is, you can now find out. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) released its updated Tap Water Database on Wednesday, which allows people to discover which contaminants are in...

This thread was created to help those who seem to overthink the ease of use of this highly ammended bag soil. I see many growers both new and experienced seem to post “ issues “ when trying to run this medium. I am merely showing a simple no frills method of container / bag grows for autos...

So my question comes to me late at night or very early in the morning depending on how you look at it ... And of course HighAF :) any way when growing in direct soil outdoors is to much water a real problem durring flowering ?? We have been getting some rain and my girls need a feed but I don't...

For those with a chiller ... I understand that a chiller sucks up the water from your reservoir, cools it and then the cooled water comes back into your res. But if nothing needs to be cooled for some days, there will be stagnant water in the tube and in the chiller. Does this never cause...

I have been trying something new for me. OKC water is horrible for plants, but it is loaded w/ minerals and such. I created a small water treatment plant with two trash barrels, goldfish, and cheap sub pumps and air. The first barrel gets filled with tap water and is aged with a pump and...

I recently transplanted my plant into a 5 gallon container up from a 1 gallon which should be the final container. I'm new to growing so this will be my first time growing in a larger container. How often should I be watering her in a 5 gallon pot of coco? I know the 20% runoff rule but does the...

What's up my grow brothers! Been coming along two opinions wherever I check and ask..... Should I lower my water pH even though I am growing all organic soil and organic powder feed ?? My tap waters pH is between 7.5-7.7 Would appreciate your input Much love

After weeks of trying to keep my water cool in various different ways I finally found a solution that works for me. Now im sure experienced growers have already done this at some point, but I personally had such a hard time trying to find something that would work for cheap and it seems to me...

I've read alot of mixed reviews and advice on where you want your PPM "runoff" prior to chopping. I'm thinking 300-400 should be good is that right in your opinion ? * Note * I'm 14 days out from harvest and have started using straight water ph'd @ 6.2 - I also read plenty about how you want...

I usually flower four plants, each in a 15 gal fabric pot indoors in organic soil. Sick of hand watering. I've seen folks use chapin sprayers like drip emitters, and would like to emulate that but perhaps it could be improved upon? Anyone have any experience rigging up indoor drip irrigation...

So there is a 30 gal reservoir running the flower tent. 5 gal smart pots each get about .75 gal/day. This lasts about a week before the water level gets too low to pump. Only using water/ph down in the res and everything seems to be doing well. Question is - what kind of maintenance does a...

i been growing a year so far and on my third grow. So far thing are just as shitty as the last. Anyway im using fox farm happy frog soil and early like week 2 of veg my plants are already showing signs of nitrogen toxicity. Curling of the tips, purple stems, overall slow growth. I was watering...

My new location uses well water instead of city tap. The ppm of the well water is 175. I want to start a single dwc bucket (5gallon), but is the 175 ppm too high? My nutes suggest 300ppm for seedlings. Because my location is very rural, the nearest store for distilled water is some 30...

Hello people! i am a indoor soil grower.My tap water is 8.0 ph, and i want to know what is the best method to bring it down to 6-7 In the internet, i've read that, you should not ph water in soil. Other growers say that you should use organic ph down. Third ones say use chemical ph downs...

Greetings fellow growers, Not sure if it makes more sense to post this in the organics section, but figured I'd start here. I'm thinking about trying a SIP setup for my next grow, and have been reading up the various threads on this and other growing sites. I am wondering how much SIP...

Alrighty guys, story time and picture time. 25 days ago I transferred plants from inside to outdoor and they took to the transfer nicely, I'll provide a picture of them after the transfer, about a week or two time after the transfer. Everything was going nicely. You can see the nice color and...

Is it just me or after I water or feed my plants leaves first droop for a few hours then after that they perk up super high like they smiling , or am I doing something wrong ?

Whats up fellow canna-lovers. I am from the greater-flint area (although not directly connected to their water source). In the past year of my life I have had just about every major life change you can imagine, (kid, marriage, bought house, bought new car)... etc My grow room setup went...
