    Recovery pumps and column size

    We picked up a trs600 at a great price for our closed loop, and it was a night and day difference from doing it passively. Killing it on the little 73g column. However, yields were terrible on two runs with a 200g column. We were told the pump might not be big enough for that column. I'm finding...

    Nitrogen deficient and ??

    i'm pretty sure my plants have been nitrogen deficient, based on all the pics i've seen and posts i've read. however, i think there may be something else going on as well. fan leaves have been pale in color, and the ones that haven't come around get brown spots, like this...
