    humidity with passive intake

    Running a passive intake and I can't get my RH up because it's always sucking the damn air out. Anyone have a tip on combating this unless my only option is redoing my ventilation. Need to keep costs down.

    Best dyna gro recipe for Coco during flowering

    I'm only worried about flowering. Veg is no issues. I see SO many decent recipes using dyna gro nutes and it seems tricky to pinpoint the best one with all the variables. I see just FP being used all the way through and even just the grow. Or a mix, but at what ml's per gallon? Going forward I...

    Question about cloning

    If you cloned from a plant that was Nutrient burned would those clones always have issue's since the mother had some crispy leaves? I'm having issues with nute burn and it's not going away no matter what I've tried. Different nutrients. Different levels. I think my problem may have been...

    dyna gro

    Having a tough choosing what bottles to grab with all of the different schedules people use utilizing dyna gro nutes. I'm still a newb in my mind having 2 runs under my belt with both having small returns. I've changed my genetics and the environment was dialed in better. I've been using GH...

    Trying to dial in nutrients

    I've been going by this rule: If ppm's are rising consistently then your plants are consuming more water than nutes and you need to dial them down. I had 2 runs in dwc with same result. 2nd was a bit better but what looked like extreme nute burn was a bad phosphorus deficiency and probably...

    Please help pick a strain

    I can't make my damn mind up. Completed 2 grows with some very picky and not the best beginner strains and I'd like to try a better beginner one. Indoors under a 600w. Using DWC but may start these in coco for the next grow. Aurora indica or AK48 looked good. I liked that the aurora is a F1...

    Are these doing ok?

    I have 2 plants in their own DWC. They have always been fed very lightly on the .7 scale @ 300-400 ppms. Were green and happy, no ugly leaves. Now After flipping to 12/12 I've come across a deficiency that seems to be pointing to iron. Well I foliar fed a small amount of calmag and bumped up...

    Sugars feed good and bad bacteria as I recall, just want a little confirmation and suggestions. 14g bins. Single dwc. Starting week 2 of actual flower and using GH 3 part. I feed lightly as my plants seem happier then. My tap comes out at 82ppm. With the flora series, a little calimagic and...

    Need help with RH

    I run a passive intake 24/7. At around 70% power to keep the temps within 77-80 degrees. But my RH is always 33-40% and normally at the lower end of those figures. I have 2 cool mist humidifiers running. With the low RH, the plants are more likely to stress easier from any issues. I don't...

    Low PPM and awesome growth? Very low

    Growth is going well for my second run and everything is beautiful. Seems dialed in and staying on top of it! But my question is (using the .7 scale) the ppm's are 250ish and I cant go higher without running into issues. I just want to know that as long as the plant is happy then my yield...

    I thought I came across a writeup on how to use those cheap humidity controllers on ebay. I know they aren't perfect but seem good enough for just keeping RH in check. Does anyone have the link or know of another cheap route for having some type of controller?

    Can I use a bucket as a chiller for a 14 gallon bin?

    DWC in 2x 14 gallon bins with one plant per bin. I don't want to recirculate both with different strains and as a newbie so I'm thinking of using a 5 gallon bucket for each bin so they have their own cooling. I'm just using frozen bottles as a cooling method with a fan blowing cool fresh air in...
