    1st Grow, CFL Bagseed in Dresser

    Once you start to flower you will want to get that box light-tight. If you allow light to leak in during lights off time, you will likely create yourself a hermie. I've never grown in soil, so that's all I got. Good luck!

    Amen, brother. I haven't had a single res problem since I ditched the Fox Farm and started adding H2O2 to the mix. And my temps run on the high side. A chiller would be prime-time though.

    Dee's 1st Grow -- Aerogarden and Bagseed -- Learning the Ropes ((PICS))

    Thanks dude! From now on it's one plant per bucket for me. That root separating bit was sketchy at best, I'm lucky it tuned out alright. So a quick update... Crystal is almost twice the width of the aerogarden now, so it's time to let her grow 100% vertically. I'm going to need to...

    my first cheap plant lol

    No, that was my initial idea but the ends of my extension cords were too big to feed through the PVC so I just Jimmy-rigged it with duct tape. Here's a couple pics where you can kinda see what I set up. I used a "growler" jug filled with sand as a base (cause I have plenty from homebrewing)...

    my first cheap plant lol

    This is my first go-round, so all I can tell you is my experience so far. I would read through the stickies in the CFL section to get the run down from someone with more expertise. https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/ Personally, I'm running 10 CFL's on a single plant DWC grow as a test run...

    Dee's 1st Grow -- Aerogarden and Bagseed -- Learning the Ropes ((PICS))

    I broke a CFL last night. I thought I was going to die or even worse. Everybody woke up this morning with all their arms and legs intact so I guess we'll be okay. :) Here's some pics from this morning. Her roots are looking healthy, and no signs of browning so I guess I got all the loose...

    It's the Big Bloom that's the problem. From their site "This odorless, liquid fertilizer is a live culture of vitamins, amino acids, natural growth hormones, enzymes, and beneficial organic microbes. Our special, micro-brewed formula incorporates earthworm castings, bat guano and other...

    my first cheap plant lol

    You'll probably have to put in a small extension before the splitter. You can get them cheap at Home Depot. http://www.amazon.com/Porcelain-Medium-Base-Socket-Extender/dp/B000XQ02PO Here's a fancier extender that I have my eye on. They seem to give you a lot of control over where you aim the...

    Yay! She looks way happier! You might want to buy a "Y" splitter and have that coil neck lamp running two bulbs...

    Do you have any pics? Also, are you using the complete Fox Farm trio?

    Tons of brown junk in my res

    From my research (and I can't stress enough that I'm not an expert), H2O2 is completely incompatible with organic nutes. H2O2 destroys all organic nutrient matter AND the beneficial bacteria required to break them down into usable chemicals. So basically if he puts in H2O2 (or bleach) in his...

    Tons of brown junk in my res

    First off I agree 100% about not running out and giving the hydro stores more money on products that don't even list their ingredients. There are a million products out there looking to cash in on dumb stoners. And everyone knows somebody that had a buddy that used some magic shit that made...

    Tons of brown junk in my res

    Yes, organics + sterilizing agents are a no-no and would be completely counter-productive. Organics NEED micobes to break the organics down into the basic chemicals that you find in traditional "chemical" nutrients. And from what I understand hygrozyme is a mixture of enzymes that beneficial...

    Tons of brown junk in my res

    Ah, I didn't realize they were that young. Best get the gunk in check before it gets on the roots. I've seen some gnarly pics on here of slimy snotty roots from algae. :(

    Tons of brown junk in my res

    I'm no expert, but hairy stuff + bad smell doesn't sound good. I would check daytime res temps. I started my DWC grow with Fox Farm trio but switched to Canna because it was too hard for me to tell if my roots were healthy between all the staining and sediment from the Big Bloom. Now my...

    Thanks dude! There was an explosion of new growth/flower overnight, and the old broad looked pretty damn good this morning. It's exciting to see all the changes! :)

    The Fox Farm BB leaves behind a lot of sediment. That's normal. A lot of people say it clogs their pumps though. It also stains roots brown making it hard to spot root rot. What worries me is the smell you say you are getting. How do your roots look, and what is your reservoir temp?
