I'm not a fan of organic nutrients, I tried them in the past ended up with root rot, and lots of algae growth. After finding the right mix I found that they clogged my pumps, misters, ect. quickly and made cleaning more difficult. I switched back to Ionic and have never looked back. I prefer a nice sterile reservoir. I think organic belongs with soil not hydro. Make sure you are measuring your nutrient strength with a PPM/EC meter. Let me know how the organic hydro works out for you.

Sup dude!!

I have 9.0/ 250 ppm tap water. Would you use it?

I have thought about Ionic nutrients before.. I like the idea that u adjust ur NPK for diff stages. The only reason i never did was the guys a the hydro shop said they wont read on tds meters.. Nature netcar i think is the brand.

Have you ever used the Lucas formula?

For real dude i got an ass ton info i need to bounce off someone. This weekend im planning on build an aero cloner, 5x5 aero table, and a homemade nebulizer for constant fog in tha table. It would be hella easy if fog alone would work. It may even but i dont know so i am still planning on misters in the table.

I was thinking about just using lucas formula for gh and h2o2 @ 35%. No sauces.. Well liquid karma may sneek its way in there. Im kinda sold on it but i would like to know what gh alone can do.

Im hoping to get max yield out of 1000w hps with least amount of cost. I just dont have alot of experience. This will be my 4 time around.

Ur thoughts on different watering systems?

U need to get the soil formula too. U need the superphosphates in the soil formula. It kinda stupid they did it like that but it IS a must.. U will lose lots of taste without it. Ur bud will still grow nice and fat with out it but it will be bland. O yea FYI their soil formula is actually made for hydro too. Doesnt make alot sense but it is what it is...

How do you feel about adding a little h202 (capfull of the store grade 3%) every 3 days to a dwc system?

I am surprised your tap water is so alkaline! Make sure you are reading the Ph correctly. I would still use that water the PPM is still pretty low and you can adjust the Ph.

Ionic reads fine on my bluelab truncheon.

Never used it sorry

The fogger will work fine I have used them successfully with aero/DWC set ups. I made a couple for some med patients too. With clones the only requirement for root formation is high humidity and warm temps. An over saturated stem will rot. I think the fogger set up without misters will work just fine. Make sure you use the right size fogger however. I use this company myself. Ultrasonic Water Fogger-The Mist Maker

Sounds like a good plan, I don't use additives myself and H2O2 does a great job at keeping you reservoir sterile. I use 35% @ 1.7ml/L in my reservoir.

Not sure what you mean, lots of ways to do hydroponics and each way has its pro's and con's. What kind of set-ups have you used in the past?

Good idea but probably not very effective at such low concentrations. I use 35% @ 1ml/L and add it every two weeks when I change out the reservoir.

U think a fogger be used soley in the 5x5 table? Wouldnt heat build up too high?

My run with MJ was in soil. Last 2 time was dwc. all where successfull. The last dwc was nice tho.. I got 5 oz of 2 plants vegged 3 weeks.. First dwc grow idid yielded around 3 but crackled when smoked and never really cured out right.

Well ill tell you what i want from a system. First thing no media at any stage... Fastest grow rate with the least maintence. I liked dwc alot but aero seems like the way ill end up. Once i saw how easy it is to make a nebulizer out of fence post ive been hooked on the idea..

Do you know of a cheaper nutrient than gh flora? Have you ever messed with house and garden?

Ok bear with me here I've been smoking some haze
Foggers don't add much heat from my experience. Yes I think the fogger alone would be more than effective. Did you look at my link?

Never even heard of house of garden, I really have been an Ionic guy for a while now. . . .
Ionic is pretty cheap though usually a better deal than Gh products.
