Has anyone had any luck with Technaflora besides me? They sold me a starter kit at the local Hydroponics store for about thirty or forty bucks and my babies love it. Hank

No problem man im here to help. Ask any and all question you may have.

I should of added this, its the feeding I schedule.

http://www.genhydro.com/genhydro_US/feeding_charts/GH_KeepItSimple_DrainToWaste.pdf

you just need to start at 1/4 strength, so 1/4 of a teaspoon, then every week slowly work your way up. One teaspoon is 5ml.

Every week you should change the rez, its just about a gallon, so al you need to do is get a gallon jug of water, and pre mix the nutes in there, then add into the rez. I wouldn't add any nutrients untill there about two weeks old, people do start at seedlings, but for me i just wouldnt risk it.

Dont know too much about the auto's but there great for the AG, I believe you just keep them on 18 hours on, and 6 hours off. They should show sex on there own. Make sure to read thru that guide for other suplies you will need.


You will need a pH kit, pH UP and DOWN is what you use to adjust your pH to the perfect point. again, 5.5 to 5.8 its good.
hey man i was just reading this thread and i was wondering when u drain ur rez and top it up again u say do it weekly? but it the mean time it drains itself down past the "fill me here" part in a day or two so do u top it up with water or jus drain an top it up once a week? thank u any help would be appreciated

You might have a light leak, try and clean off the air stones, sticc to what you were doing and try covering up the AG more, other then that its gonna be some hard work

it cant get thru the cracks where the bas come out, dosnt look too bad but its nothing you cant manage.

just throw something over the base or something, i have heard of people getting it saying the AG isnt light proof, but i never had any problems
