2in is good for avg plants. You can grow trees in 3ins. T5's would be better than t8s. as many as you can get. Check www.htgsupply.com great deals. I use Technaflora and you can get an everything starter kit for around $40. Highly recommend it. And get some Hygrozome or something similar, it...

Straight water will work. I use thrive alive (technaflora) and get roots in 5 days. Ringo

I think its just because of the aero/bubbler. There growth is off of soil it sounds like. A shorter veg time will help John

Youll have a way easier time with a bigger res. Go with a 10 gal. John

I also tried the razor scraping on the sides, splitting the ends all of the "best ways" to clone. They root above all of that lol. The ones that i take later in flowering (3 weeks) root quicker than just veg plants. There is to much going on with all aspects of growing around here, people...

I have had 100% success with clones taken at the 3rd week of flower, dipped in clone gel, then into a mini dwc. Took 5 days to root. Its been a week since and i have healthy root systems and they are reveging. The fancy cutting and such doesn't make a difference, i dont think the cloning...

I kind of do a lucas method but with technaflora. I have an aquarium siphon and fill. Its 25ft and hooks to a sink or garden hose. drains it, then you can fill it, but I use it just to drain (if I change it) Ringo

Good to hear that fixed your problem. As a general rule if ppms rise and the water drops, its taking very little, to no nutes. Drop the ppm. And there may be salt build up on the roots and that will rise the ppms. (from to high of a ppm) Peace love George

How do you mix your res water? Do you ph down first(what is the starting ph of the ro water?) or add your nutes? I used ro water at first then switched to tap water as it didn't make a difference to the plants, but the ph is really stable, but it has to sit out. I use technaflora and it has...

You can buy plastic twist ties in the garden section of any big home improvement store. By the tomamto stuff. I personally do cut my fan leaves and such, but its a V-scrog. And I still try to keep them by tucking first. Ringo

Dont cut them, tuck them behind the sites or tie them out of the way. The only fan leaf cutting is for screen grows. Paul

If you let the water sit out a day or two my tap water is 5.8. :-o 7.4 before. I have a ph51 ph pen from millwaukee and it adjust to temps auto. Very nice. H2o2 will help. Also do you have any airstones in your res? that would help. Also to sixstring. I also had a problem at first, using to...

3k would be possible. Really it all depends on the person. If they can take the stress and be paitent it will work. The number one down fall is to much messing around with everthing. Tell them to bongsmiliebefore they do anything. It has helped my grow alot. I say 3k of dwc or Rdwc and a very...

Do they realize how much that would be with 10 1k lights? thats crazy. Just Keep It Simple Stupid applys here. How much do they plan on harvesting? I would say heathly clones straight into flower of an indica would be the best bet. The less time it takes the less time they have to screw it up...

I personally notice that if i ph down everyday the plants dont like it. I now just sit back and watch it. If it raises to 6.3 or 6.5 i leave it. Then when i add my water to the res and pull it down to 5.8 or so. OK enough ramblin:eyesmoke: what im saying is that I find it bad to adjust your...

I picked yes and somewhat safe. I have walked out to see a guy pulling in to return a 1000w ballast with a blacked out explorer following him and parking next door to watch. (I saw lights in the windows of the suv) soooo, he followed someone there but still its in the back of my head everytime i...

Theres alot of different schools of thought on switching nutes to bloom. What i have found out is that if the plant is showing preflowers i can switch with 12/12 with no problems. With a plant that has not shown preflowers it tends to yellow alittle, but stops. No harm, no foul. Either way, you...

So 4 plants per 7gl bucket? Is this so you can rescue them ladies quickly? You dont have that long with autos so i would move them out asap to max growth. And with them in only 5 buckets (if that is what you meant) it will be easy to move them back indoors just incase. Good luck, 1st post, ha Paul
