it has worked well for me. the 2- 1 gallon containers i use are easy and with the pre-effort all i do is top off every 24 hours when the lights come on.
they last about 2 weeks until i need to make more, and with the conversions provided by General Hydroponics, it has been easy to mix it up right. also from following the instructions, the pH tends to be right on. ~5.5
i stopped adding the 50% h2o2 as i didn't see the need for it with out a problem. the air stones are working, and it has been like 2-3 weeks since i unplugged my AG pump, so i am no longer pumping water just aerating it.
also, it has been like 2 weeks since i chopped my males and the remaining root mass has not caused any ill affects that i can see.
i just posted a new thread as i am beginning to "bend" my plants and "form" them to maximize my 3ft wide x 3ft tall x 2ft deep grow area. so far so good.
