    My plants smell JUST like mint....

    So I hope I don't have to say this but I hope that CAP-1 is ducted or enclosed somehow instead of just dumping ozone into your air in your home. If not then you should probably read this: http://environment.about.com/od/ozonedepletion/a/whatisozone.htm. Of particular interest are probably...

    i have a perpetual grow theroy

    That's the beauty of it. You don't have to. As you put your veg plants into flower you just snip a clone off each plant and then you have your next generation. It's actually a really efficient system. Plus if you don't have a mom where do you just pull a whole bunch of small clones that you're...

    Anyone ever had leaves grouped together?

    You use soil I assume? In hydro I would imagine lemon juice could get a little sticky. I think vinegar is actually better and also adds a little iron I believe. If you really wanted the sugar you could probably use like apple cider or something I guess. More importantly you don't wanna use too...

    First time poster. Problem with clone.

    What you will want to do is stick yours finger down into the soil on the side of the bucket and if you feel any moisture you don't need to water. Don't be surprised if this takes four or five days. This encourages your roots to grow more with the energy it has in search of the remaining water...

    Need HELP from people who have used ADVANCED NUTRIENTS

    I've been using AN for the Bloom phase for several years now. I've used the sensi and connoisseur line and while the conn may be a little better the sensi is half the price and is a very good product. I also use bud blood (still using up what I have since Bud ignitor came out but it has always...

    I want to caution against using this site as others who have actually ordered from here have said. They may have good prices but after placing an order a month ago I have still received roughly half of it. Some is currently in the mail after they sent me the wrong product but were quick to...

    Help NEW to hydro!!

    The picture in my avatar was grown in a similar bucket. You can put the pump on a timer but I have had no problems running it constantly. In a large plant the roots will even begin to fill your reservoir area. The side of the bucket should have a hole where a 90 degree elbow goes attached to a...

    Aeroponics System Cleaning?

    Use 15 to 20 ml H202 EVERY DAY. Some use a higher dosage every 4 to 5 days, but the everyday dosage tends to keep your oxygen levels on a more consistent basis. From what I understand the oxidation of organic material results in the extra oxygen molecule to bind to the carbon and essentially...

    How much nutrients do you go through typically?

    You also have to remember he's using a res about half the size of yours so you would be looking at about 525 ml using his CNS17. Using the lucas formula with Gen Hydro would end up being about 24 ml per gallon or 840 ml at full strength per change. The Canna Aqua, which I LOVE, is around 22...

    Cube conditioning ?

    I keep things pretty clean but I never do this in either case. I would venture to say not very.

    Root entaglement

    It is my understanding that hydrogen peroxide will oxidize the enzymes, being organic, if used together. I use both but separately as a rule. I alternate application of each every res change and even in hot temps have no problems. Personally I like h2o2 because it's cheap and effective although...

    Cloning Straight Into Flowering

    How old is the mother you took these off of? Are the nodes on her alternating? If not they may not even be sexually mature. In which case you're just depriving them of time they could be using to build a more stable structure. If they are ready then I don't see why they wouldn't survive. I would...

    Only ordered from them once but they shipped a pretty large order halfway across the country in less than a week. Their website could use some work but their prices and service were amazing. Will be ordering from them again. Also read they will work with you on shipping if it's too high. Imagine...

    Advance nutrients budblood does anyone use it?

    I would say everything ended up more of a pinkish, but yes. It all flushed out in a couple weeks with weekly changes. I only use somewhere between 2-4 grams per gallon or 1/2-1 gram per liter depending on the strain.

    Advance nutrients budblood does anyone use it?

    I've been using the stuff for almost two years now and I absolutely love it. It is one of the Advanced products that I truly believe in. My plants transition to flower in two or three days while I see many people on here waiting over a week. I also see quite a few more budding sites with it. I...

    Flushing from Veg to Flowering

    I agree. Flusing that often is something I do in hydro with salty nutrient that really builds up on your medium. If I didn't flush my hydroton every so often all the buildup from the Gen Hydro nutrient would clog up my system and fuck with my ph so bad. In soil however, you'll probably be...

    What happens if you change the light schedule by an hour a night?

    I agree. Just switch it to 12/12 whenever you're ready and I always change my reservoir and add flowering nutrient the night before. If you wanna speed the process up look into Advanced Nutrients Bud Blood. It's cut the transition period down to three or four days in many of the plants I've...

    Name That Deficiency (Pics)

    Organic stuff doesn't always work as well in hydro because you need bacteria to break down the nutrient to a compound that is useable by the plant as far as I understand it, and you don't always have enough organisms to break down your nutrient. I don't know how you're feeding them but, as I...

    Name That Deficiency (Pics)

    It looks like a mag def to me too but if you're adding extra you need to either add more or flush your system. My thought is that it may be lockout from the salt buildup in your grow medium. Buy a flushing product, a quart of clearex is like $15, run that through before you flower and hopefully...
