im going to use ebb and flow, rockwool to start then going to drop in baskets with hydroton.
1. what should the water temp be through out my grow?
2. how long should the table stay flooded?
3. how often do you have to put the new newts in? every water change? or every day

when it says flowering 8-10 weeks from the seed bank that i purchased from, does that mean start to finish?

I think im going to use foxfarm, but am unsure if its the best thing to go with. im going to grow northen lights,white widow, and chrystal all feminized is fox farm suitable to grow with these strains am i going to get a good product, or should i use a different neutrient.

Ok lets say i pick a seed that has floweing time of of 8-10 weeks.
and i were to use fox farm schedule. (link below) what i dont understand is in this schedule how long are they vegging for? i thought they vegged for a couple months then have 8-10 weeks of floweing. how does the vegging/floweing coinside with this schedule
when i look at this schedule it seems they they are only vegging for about a month.

=<70

15 minutes

As required, depends how well your plants are doing. check every other day. Also check PH and keep to 5.8.

No, it means from the day you place lights to 12/12. However, if you have an auto-flower strain, it usually means seed to harvest.

That is the question of the century. Personal preference. You should read others experiences. I do note there an awful amount of foxfarm grows with problems
but that's my own personal observation. FF is hot though. looking at that chart you have, I would say 75% of the EC they state is safer.

The chart shows a seedling stage, than a veg stage, up to and including week 4. Note the use of the VEG formula up to that point. week 1-4 is the Veg state. On the chart, week 5 on is bloom.

THIS IS MY POST #666 so I could be the devil

thanks alot for the useful information. i been reading so many different answers on these questions thats why i put this together. Like the water temp, ive read 75 degrees down to 60 degrees. So MY search for the perfect water temp continues. And ph, ive seen 5.5 at germination then 5.8 to 6.3. flood table ive seen alot of what you said 15 mins 4 times a day. Again id like to say thanks for your input.
