Check my last lot of pics out you can see my leaves are curling a touch mate. Don't stress about things to much an my tips are a bit burnt but I just upped my ec from 1.0 to 1.2 to 1.4. My truncheon stick blinks between those two. I'm using b.a.c nutes. No instruction on them. So I go on ec.
Also all my other nutes like when I ran rock fusion. Or canna. I don't check ec. I just do as label says.

Real interesting and different way to run ur tent with the medium all over the bottom. No drain at all?

Yeah it's a jumbo tray 1140x1140 in a 1200x1200 tent.
It's drip fed. Clay balls medium. an yes it has a 19mm outlet with leads into 25mm to help with drainage. 13mm inlet which was feeding in to fast for my 100 litre res so I put a tap onto 13mm inlet to slow speed so all works nice.

Res for the 800mm x 800mm tent on right 50 litres. 100 litre for the 1200x1200 on right 200mm fan silenced phresh hyper fan an 200mm phresh carbon filter. Can not smell a thing.

That's the only way ive done hydro is with clayballs and then/Or straight perlite
I liked the clay balls better same yield less mess
And a fish aquarium pump and airstones
Ahh the old school wardrobe i loved that thing lol

What about noise? Is the hyperfan worth investing in

Yeah mate it's awesome comes with it's own speed controller. Bloke Said run the 200 rather the the 150 as it makes less sound. I turn it a fraction up off low works a treat. I run my air con 24/7 so don't hear it water pumps are noisest part. He recommended running an inlet fan so I use my old 150 for inlet in the 1200 tent.the small tent ducting didt reach so I didt worry.

PH is between 6.2 and 6.8 and grow is plant height max is 145cm by 60cm wide ever way with a 300w led atm but wanna upgrade in 15L pot and in soil I'm use floragro and bloom and seaweed extract with worm casting

I recon you should do this whilst you have a problem.
I think you had a soil/coco mix before? That could be screwing with ya uptakes and PH.
Unless you know what your doing then stick to soil IMO, unless you dont mind having a few failures until you learn the ropes.

Nice autos . the way there going you should get at least an oz off each plant. I'm going for 60 autos to see if its worth growing them in spring.

I'd be happy with an oz all up from 2
Not cos I'm desperate but more cos it fills another small jar to cure ;)

i think the nosiest thing i have is the clip on circulating fan. They even change sound depending on their arc.

Its a quiet fan now..it just blew up when i went to adjust it...What a pain in the ass. Thank fk I had the ballast on a separate circuit and plugged into a surge protector cause it tripped the switch on the surge protector and at the meter box.

Battling humidity atm with outside at 70% and about the same in the shed/ tent.
