It's always fun when home tent growers think they know everything... And I'm wrong yet no one has definitive proof contradicting anything I've said where's your links boys?
Arguing with you is pointless. That 50watt per square foot you're referring to was actually first established for HID a lot of people have carried it over to led/cobs with success. And it's absolute rated wattage not what's pulling from the wall. Every led manufacturer out there has different...
Well you're just an anominloy contradicting everything I say. Ask any other DWC or RDWC prerson and they will tell you not to fully submerge your roots you absolutely CAN overwater in dwc. You can check with CCH2O as well as Alien Hydroponics and both companies will confirm to not fully submerge...
That's possibly true. I wasnt saying for sure he has too much air I was just saying it can be possible. I had a 960gph pushing 4 buckets and if I didn't open one extra valve it made the water too turbulent in the buckets.
Yes you don't want all of your roots fully submerged. With seedlings you want the water level about 1/4" below the root crown. During flower about 1/4-1/2" below netpot. It's cool if they eat a lot. You just gotta keep giving them more!
I think regardless of size you want one that can continuously drain. I have a 70pint in my 9x20x7 and it hangs. The problem with this question is different areas need different things. I live in a desert so the only humidity I combat is what I make myself. I used to live in a place that was...
This is close. 5.5-6.5 is the range for hydro and swings are good. Different nutrients are uptake at different ranges. I usually aim for 5.8 when adjusting and don't touch again unless it goes below 5.7 or. Above 6.3
Yoi DO NOT want to chase ph every day all day. Adding ph up and down...
1 is sufficient, too much air can shock them. I run rdwc and have a pressure regulation valve plugged in to my air pump bank just to assure I don't over power the roots. Usually in dwc leaves pointing down means over water(water level too high) too much air, or water Temps.
