I reuse my soil all the time. Obviously (or not I guess) there is a process of composting my soil before I use it again. At the minimum I compost my soil for one bloom cycle (8~9 weeks) before using it again. I also add amendments and dose it with Hygrozyme too.

At least the mods can do is remove the 'sticky' status.

Plugging in a fan controller will definitely help but as it is I think you are okay.

*bump* hoping someone who grew these strains will chime in....

Wow. 10ppm is a lot of chlorine. I guess I should have put a disclaimer in regards to a grower's local water quality. Here according to the city water quality report chlorine ppm range is 1~3 ppm...but IME I saw no significant change in ppm in a 48 hour time span when testing tap. I guess in the...

118ppm is pretty good. IMO the difference between 918 and 800 is small and would probably lean towards 918. But then again your growing method, strain, nutes, ...etc factor in too. Of course you go go conservative and do 800 and see how the plants react going that way. Regarding chlorine...see...

I picked up these clones from Harborside a few months ago. They are in Week 5 of flower and I'm pretty sure these 3 strains I got are the same strains... are these strains so similar that they are almost identical?? All three are tall and lanky and blooming popcorn buds...not large/big colas...

You didn't mention the time interval between when you plugged your clone and when the root appeared. With that said plain water....even tap water....will definitely work...though it will take a bit longer.

Depending on strain you will see incredible growth the next 2~3 weeks. Good luck braddah!!!

I'm coming to the same conclusion too. But one thing to keep in mind is a grower's local water district and how the local water quality is managed. I'm starting to see no difference in using tap vs tap that has sat for 24 hours but my water quality might be way better than let's say...Los...

Also consider the strain you are growing as some strains can take recommended heavy feedings and some will not. Some strains may even take more than the recommended heavy feeding. I use the FF Big Bloom but because I water/feed my girls every other night I use slightly less than the recommended...

Nicely done trichlone fiend!! I take it to be successful in lollipopping is to not top the plant right? Just clip the side branches?

My water is 8.0 out of tap after all is said and done I bring it down to 6~6.5 ph (soil). Everyone's grow is dramatically different (even though similar) so after time u will see what works for you.

Exactly. Purps actually is going through the same thing. I remember when GDP (well at least it was GDP here in my neck of da woods) started the purple/grape fascination. Hazes is another example. Haze this haze that.
