    Flushing before flowering

    I'm wondering what everybody's thoughts are on using a chilating agent for flushing before flowering? These plants could def use a good flush. There are signs of slight nute burn on most of the lower leaves, not really a big deal since they are going to get cut anyway. I am thinking of...

    Micro-Pore Air Diffusers

    Looking into getting a micro pore air diffuser and would like some feedback before purchasing. 1. Do these things actually sink? Or do I need to attach a weight to stabilize? 2. How well do they stay clean? Lastly, Im unsure how I should set things up. I have an average air pump with...

    Idiot question... wilting

    Do you know what heat stress looks like? Common indicators of heat stress would be leaves turning brown at the tips, curling up, and becoming crispy over an extended period of time. Considering that the other plants shows no signs of this and are perfectly healthly, I think we can rule out heat...

    Idiot question... wilting

    Its just dwc bubble system. Im using Hail and hydroton as medium with root riot starters. This plant is in the hail. Im growing side by side, hydroton vs hail. Im using restricted nutes because I have a plant that has fallen behind the pack. The one that is drooping is the one that has taken...

    Idiot question... wilting

    I'll post pic a little later, assuming the problem is still present. Overwatering seems like the obvious answer. However the watering method has not changed and the other plants in the same system are doing just fine, which is what really makes me wonder. I left that part out before, sorry...

    Idiot question... wilting

    What causes half a plant to severely wilt? Great question... I know. Everything was going well then a sudden wilt started, its as if the stem had been broken, the top of the plant has just gone limp and fallen over. Leaves are still green but severely are curled down. Currently: PH: 5.5-6...

    Question about Nutrients

    Great answer... So if I were to switch to Advanced Nutrients Cal Mag, would that help? Is the problem with the cal mag or the hygrozyme? This is by no means an organic grow. I haven't made that commitment yet.

    Question about Nutrients

    hydro, 7 gal res, using distilled water This is a simple question. When I begin to mix my nutes I go in this order. 1. 7 gal Distilled H20 2. Botanicare Cal Mag Plus - up to 150TDS 3. 70ml Hygrozyme - 10ml per gal I go on to add some other nutes, but those are irrelevant to this question...

    Ventilation Question

    No vents in that room, its completely underground. There's not even a vent for central air / heat. Which is the big problem. The air in that room doesn't really move much. There is some circulation, but not much. Any heat expelled is drawn back into the cab, eventually. Rather than drilling...

    Ventilation Question

    Im trying to make this as simple as possible. There has to be some HVAC people out there. I cant seem to find anybody who has reported doing this, and I know there are tons of basement grow ops. With such a simple idea, there has to be some problem I am missing. Will hooking up my garden...

    question about lighting and plants per light!

    I think you are looking at this is reverse. Rather than thinking of the right amount of plants per light, you would be better served determining the proper lumen's per square foot and go on to determine how many plants you want per sq ft. Start with lumen's and work toward the proper number of...

    Ventilation Question

    Thanks the article was helpful. My set up is in a cab, so in a sense it is a closed environment. However, there is no connection to the outside world. The problem Im having is that the hot air being exhausted 20 ft away from the cab is raising temps in the room, therefore my intake is pulling...

    Ventilation Question

    My set up is in a basement, underground. No windows, no way to drill into another room, not even a dryer exhaust. Right now its peaking at 81, with 73 at night. Not a disaster situation, but still a little on the warm side. The way I see it, I have two options. Vent under the floor boards, or...

    Idiot Lighting Question

    Ya, I was using two 90W UFO's. They did ok for veg, but just took forever to flower and the buds were fluffy. Not dense like they should be. It just wasnt meant to be. So now Im going with the 400HPS, praying that the circuit can handle it. It would be a real pain shipping all of that back...
