    High Pressure Aeroponics

    Dstroy knows what he's talking about. He may appear abrasive at the surface but deep down he's a good guy that wants to help; he just does not have the time for bs. He's helped me a lot with my grows over the years and I know he's one of the few people who can walk the talk. (Implementing...

    1 year experience growing HPA

    Blue Dream before flipping Harvest Root pics (roots engulfing the misters, my worst nightmare) I put 4 of these Blue dreams under 4 strips of samsung led that's 100w each (400w total) with a ppfd of around 500-600 and yielded a little more than 500g. 2'x4' area. They do yield a little...

    1 year experience growing HPA

    On the 2nd grow, I transitioned completely to 5 gallon buckets. Vegging them for 1 month then flip to 12/12. This is a clone that I put under the new design of misters pointing down (got the idea from Dstroy). As you can see, the top roots are white because it's getting enough water while the...

    1 year experience growing HPA

    In the old room, I vent the hot air via carbon scrubber out through the drywall which helps to keep the heat/moisture down. I also run a dehumidifier which will increase the heat but reduce moisture to 60% I also have a central air, but if I were to do it again, minisplit AC will be the way...

    1 year experience growing HPA

    I started about a year go trying HPA (first time growing any plant) and made a lot of mistakes but luckily there are so many helpful people on the forum. @dstroy @Atomizer and stinkbud passed on incredible experience and knowledge onto me. If it were not for them, I would still be scratching my...

    SEX of this plant??

    If it's male I'd probably pull it. It's veg age is actually over 2 months, and this is all i see. I have other plants which shows the very distinct calyx pistil next to the stipules that grew on the same schedule as this one.

    SEX of this plant??

    Hi All, I know to look for calyx or the ball under stipules for the sex during veg. However this is a whole new growth coming out. These are regular seeds. Would appreciate anyone that can tell me the gender.

    What is wrong with my leaves?

    Hi All, The issue is blackening of the serrated edges then followed by crispiness. Always starts off as orange dots near the tips or serrated edges curling up. I'm seeing the same issue in all my plant, it's happening to mostly older fan leaves. Aeroponics (similar to stink bud system)...

    1st grow too many problems...

    Looks like you have green algae on your roots. Eventually roots will turn brown if you don't act fast. hydroguard 2ml/gal and make sure no light is getting into the root chamber

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Hey Polish, I try to get it to be true aeroponics but the roots get too long if hanging from the air. At the most they sit in less than 1 mm of water patches. It's never a pool because of my drainage. I've been giving plain PH water past 4 days. I just mixed up 4 gallons of ro water + Dutch...

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Hey Tim, Polish, The results are surprisingly better. I no longer see algae in the root chamber and new white roots are coming out. I'm not sure which contributed the most but here's the list. 1. painted the cover so that no light gets to the roots 2. added the Hydroguard 3. flushing...

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Hey Tim, How much Epsom salt should I add? Today I have .443 EC and 6.3 PH, I will bring the ph down to 5.8 again. The light leak is taken care of with paint over lid. Reservoir temperature is at a steady 65 F due to chiller. I assume without the light leak, some h2o2, hydroguard the algae...

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Hi Tim, I have some bad news. The root algae is still present, I need to get a couple more layers of paint on my lid so no light can hit the roots. As for the spots on leaves, they're still present and seem to be back too. I am taking your advice and added a gallon of RO (0 EC) and ph...

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Hi Tim, I adjusted the Ph down to 5.8 last night and had an EC value of .686 Today(24 hours later) the Ph is reading 6.1 and I have an EC value of .614, I will bring it down to 5.8 now. I also notice my water level is going down which means they're drinking plenty. The Hydroguard seems to be...

    Phosphorus or Calcium?

    Last night I mixed up a new solution with .71 EC and 5.8 PH Earlier noon the reading was .7 EC and 6.1 PH, I also added the Hydroguard which didn't disturb the readings Tonight 8pm it is reading .671 EC and 6.3 PH, should I let it sit or Ph down it to 5.8? Overall it seems the plant is...
