    Home Invasion, life goes on. some debt lingering, now what? thoughts please

    Right, I firmly am in belief now that starting off small, and working your way up is the way to go. Unfortunately, this proposition didnt start like that, and as I said in the OP, I didn't read the fine print. I think you're correct that this should be a shared loss. It wasn't from neglect on my...

    Home Invasion, life goes on. some debt lingering, now what? thoughts please

    I'm a little toasty so I will try not to ramble too much. It all started several yrs ago when I accepted the offer to be funded into a commercial setup. All I saw was a carrot in front of my face, and I jumped on the offer not knowing what I was really getting myself into (in terms of mental...

    How many times to rise with botanicare's clearex

    hey - would using the Hi-Brix with every water+feed screw up them up? can you "overuse" hi-brix/molasses based products?

    Coco Growers Unite!

    my apologies if this was covered already (and i do need to go back and re-read this entire thread) - when flushing at the end when using 100% coco - how many times and how far b4 harvest? also though - what if you wanted to go for the tops/upper canopy first, and then let lower stuff get...

    1st grow in coco -day28 Blue Dream - 5-7kw HPS - all tips, quips & gripes accepted

    @iscrog.. yeh i know it sounds like a dumb question, I just prefer to voice all those questions in my head these days rather than pretend i know everything. I'm thinking of moving maybe one of my other bigger plants from the middle table over to one of the other ones to get more light and free...

    I cant get rid of bugs...

    i wound up running a fogger, hanging up sticky traps, I did use sand, but I didnt scoop enough of the coco off the top at first, so I didnt like the way it was forcing water to run off the top so much, so I just removed it. I hear diatomaceous earth works good too - but havent tested. @jondamon...

    How many times to rise with botanicare's clearex

    just seems like the Hi-brix attracts MAD gnats. Seems to be a good product though. I only had a sample of the Sweet that I got at the Expo - haven't gone out and bought it though. How much Hi-Brix do you use each time? 30 - 45ml/gal? you use it each time you water/feed? Yeh - seems like...

    @someguy15 - yeh that Dri-Eaz looks good, but I dont have 1200$ right now to spend on a thing like that. Unfortunately I just have some fkd up stuff right now that I wont go into, but thanks for showing me this. I'm still wondering if maybe I shouldn't be running 8 lights right now, and just...

    Balls to the Wall grow, Riddleme Gets Serious

    what about the stability of using apple cider vinegar as a PH modifier? I've read here on RIU and other garden forums that lemon juice, vinegar, etc.. are not stable for long term. Like, if you were going to aerate your reservoir for a few hours, and you had applied the vinegar after nutes in...

    Calling All Noob Growers

    @Riddle - another member suggested that since I had used some old Botanicare Nitrex that its high Ammonium factor was now causing a possible Potassium lockout. But you're right a flush is probably warranted now. Thanks again for your input and all the advice you give to everyone here on RIU. It...

    precisely. with whatever leniency you might have gotten, when you start stealing from a private utility, its auto-fed offense. have been told by a friend who's cousin works on special narc force in SoCAL that is the #1 way they usually get 'em

    What is this powdery substance ?

    @digitalsinz its not from saltwater. nutrients/minerals have salts. look here on RIU. there should be some resources that break this down for you

    How many times to rise with botanicare's clearex

    I remember being told, back when I used to do soil, that it was advisable to Clearex like once every 7 - 10 days. I was in the practice of doing it every 2 - 3 weeks. Sounds like that was overkill possibly. I'm using 100% coco now, and everything that I've read indicates you don't really need to...
