    can anyone show me ONE picture of someone that required a stake to support the main stem of an indoor dwc plant 4-6ft tall? I've never seen or heard of anyone doing this before so how would it be required? My avatar is dwc... no stakes required.... how would you even support the stake anyways...

    a guide for anyone who is unhappy with their germ rates when using rockwool

    Well perhaps thats because you have only been an RIU member for 6 months. You probably have not been growing for much longer than that either. Also, in no way was I agreeing with you. I simply stated that the paper towel method does have its applications but for your typical hobbyist who just...

    a guide for anyone who is unhappy with their germ rates when using rockwool

    Without a doubt the best way if your growing in soil and dont have a lot of seeds. Thats how natures been doing it for thousands of years without any help from man so why change it? This, however, is posted under "hydroponics/aeroponics". Soil doesnt really play a role here. :) This is...

    a guide for anyone who is unhappy with their germ rates when using rockwool

    your obviously confused. Yes, a seed will pop well in paper towel with a 100% successs rate most of the time. My point is the transfer from paper towel to rockwool is an unnecessary risk that for most hobbyist growers, is just going to lower their success rate. The paper towel isnt the...

    a guide for anyone who is unhappy with their germ rates when using rockwool

    I used to have a lot of trouble starting seeds in rockwool successfully. I ended up finding my own method after experiencing bad germ rates with all conventional methods. I've tried everything I could possibly think of to see what works best and I've landed on this method. Now I get 100%...

    clear slime on hoses and pump... normal?

    Yeah, check out the first sticky under the dwc/bubbleponics area. Heisenberg made a great post about this stuff. You need to take it into consideration because it can live without light and loves oxygen so even the perfect setup is vulnerable to it since theres never anyway to know FOR SURE if...

    using bubbleponics system

    the taproot will naturally grow towards the center of the earth since it figures out which direction to go based on gravity. You dont want direct light on the young taproot so wait until its past the rockwool and if you can still see root, give the rockwool a couple gentle pinches or scrape off...

    I posted this in the growers forum because your typical smoker isnt going to have a clue about mr.nice seeds; just growers that buy their gear. Therefore this seemed like the best place to post this. I started watching this doc about a drug smugger as I like those shows. He was referring to...
