With that statement you just became a member of the group you seem to dislike.


It is but unfortunately much of what is taught and learned are bad habits and bad techniques backed up by nothing more than belief and opinion and they are passed on to others who then learn bad habits and bad techniques. So this site is like you thought it was but unfortunately thanks to many it is largely a university of growing ignorance.




You are the thread starter, not the thread owner, operator and moderator. Every thread here is open to every single member and each has an equal right to express themselves as do you regardless of if you like that fact or not.

That percentage will vary from person to person depending on how they want to use their plants and or to what degree they are capable of using their plants and to some totally dependent on their chosen/preferred growing technique. To someone who makes hash lots of leaves with trichomes on part of them to all of them is pure gold and to someone else the leaves are pure waste and to others they are seen as an unwanted waste long before harvesting. ("Waist" as you put it is the narrow area between the hips and chest, what someone's belt size or pants waist size would be and not a waste product, something lacking worth or value or something usable, of value, worthwhile that goes unused.)


As odd as it might seem, some people have known what you call; "farming 101" for decades. But it is always nice to see something very old brought up again now and then.

Too late ... they have been here from the very beginning. If you want none too be here, for that to happen you would need to exit your own thread.

If you are familiar with your old saying; "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar" you may care to pause a moment and consider it and then you might care to soften your phraseology a bit and drop the abuse or else with this crowd it is likely to come back at you tenfold.

what the fuck is going on....

Hi!

Nice to meet you Al(l) ;) I know that star of this post, maybe even of all forum got a family problems. I wish you and your family the best.

It is my first post but i have a little bit (really little) expirience with growing tomatoes,but not with hydro and perpetual.

Al you've inspired me. Im trying to copy yours OP in this same scale. I've already studied almost half of your posts and i got some notes. Anybody has something to add? Am I forgot about something? Al, I count on your answer while you can do that

That is my think-tank:

I also think about replace inside ionizer with carbon filter (what size? and what size of blower? L1 750 m³/h 200mm 8" will be ok?)

From where to take fresh air(except windows)?
If i got a space, then a little of veg (1-2weeks) will increase yieald either like Al said can do nothing because without veg it better suits to HPS light pattern?

Thanks in advance,
Swiezyy

The concern with using this tea in a aero setup is that it could clog sprayers. Although the tea keeps away gunky build up and keeps my air stones very clean, it does cover everything in a slight biofilm. Very small sprayers could be effected, though I can't see how it would be any worse than salt buildup. I suppose if you are already dealing with an infected gunky res and not having sprayer issues then you should be fine using the tea.

In terms of disease, bennies will let you tolerate res temps into the mid 70's. Some growers will cry that cooler water holds more dissolved oxygen, but I encourage you to look up some charts and see just how much 'more' DO 68f holds than 78f.

You are confused about organics and tea. The tea is perfect for organics...however organics themselves are NOT perfect for hydro. When you see me caution people against introducing organic material to the res, it is because they have proven to be prone to slime and are trying to prevent it. So we keep organic material out of the res which removes the food source for the slime, and we add the tea which displaces and hinders the slime. If you have no slime problems, the tea can and in fact should be used when using organics. If you do have slime, use the tea and drop the organics, or switch grow methods.

Organic material can not be eaten by plants. Never. It must first be decomposed by microbes. The microbes break down the organics into a form that is available for uptake by the roots. At that point, the organics have become chemical fertilizer. So anyone who implies that organic growing involves no chemicals either doesn't understand the process or has given in to the marketing hype. Synthetic chemical fertilizers simply remove the need for decomposition, and are available to the roots right away. Since hydro is about controlling and enhancing the environment, it doesn't make sense to give up part of that control to microbes, and depend on them for your nute balance. I prefer to control my own nute balance and use the microbes for their other uses.

So if you are using organic ferts you MUST add some beneficial decomposers to the water, or else you are inviting bad stuff to come in and take over.

All you need to do is use a #21 drill bit & a 10-32 tap it is the correct size for both holes or you can get by with a 1/8" drill bit if its all you got.

HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT

The following is an actual question given on a
University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The
answer by one student was so "profound" that the
professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet,
which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of
enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or
endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs
using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats
when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is
changing in time.
So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving
into Hell and t he rate at which they are leaving. I
think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets
to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are
leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at
the different religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a
member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since
there is more than one of these religions and since
people do not belong to more than one religion, we can
project that all souls go to Hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect
the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in
Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the
temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the
volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls
are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate
at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and
pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks
loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the
increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and
pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa
during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day
in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into account
the fact that I slept with her last night, then number
two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is
exothermic and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has
frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any
more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only
Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being
which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting
"Oh my God."

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"

Her Diary:

Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong; He said, 'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior I don't know why he didn't say, 'I love you, too.' When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. To my surprise, he responded to my caress, and we made love. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster.



His Diary:

Boat wouldn't start, can't figure it out, at least I got laid.

This Is a very informative series of videos from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
There are 35 one hour long lectures on Biochemistry, Genetics, Molecular Biology

I like how you can post a question and get opinions immediately. There are a ton of different options on the threads from anything from security, to aeroponics, to just talking about anything.

he might be a racist but you're simply an asshole. :)
