Thanks but unless your offering to lend me the $500 for a new one I need to look into repairing this unit.

My EcoPlus chiller decided to quit working on me last night. Display turns on and reads temp but won't turn on the fan or pump. For those of your familiar with Ecoplus chillers (old model by the way) the light on display flashes green and I can hear a click when it's telling the pump and fan to...

A corona discharge is an electrical discharge brought on by the ionization of a fluid such as air surrounding a conductor that is electrically charged. Spontaneous corona discharges occur naturally in high- voltage systems unless care is taken to limit the electric field strength. A corona will...

There's something called a "corona discharge". It happens to the pole in front of my house when it's humid out. Light mist/fog affects it the most. Has a crackling sound. I though my world was about to end the first time I heard it lol.

Thanks for the info and chart.... I think most of the guys having luck with no chiller are running their cloners on cold basement floors but for my next run I'm gonna setup my 60 site with no chiller just EWC tea and see what happens. If your interested look for my journal I'll be starting first...

That's what I thought. I've been trying to find a bad thing said and can't but apparently it's banned for use in CO according to a denverpost article.

Those clones are about 1 week from cut, no roots yet. I do get some twisting in the upper leaves once roots really start popping which is why I'm not so sure about my 6.0ph. I'd like to see this chart you found cause I'm thinking about lower it next time around.

IDK about spraying anything on the good ones so close to harvest. There's obviously a moisture issue there so spraying everything might not be a great idea. You already removed infected areas so wait a day or 3 and see if it comes back, then maybe spray.

I sprayed the infected areas before I cut them so to not spread spores around. Straight h202 is what I used.

The one time I had bud mold (power was out for 2 weeks!) I sprayed infected areas with h202 then cut them out. If it shows again you'll just have to cut it out. Sucks. Maybe an early harvest would be best.

Why no Spinosad?

Oh man that sucks. I would try cutting it below that point and see if it spreads. I've had plants with bud mold before that wasn't in every nug, so maybe you get lucky and only loose that part of the plant. I'd definitely spray the area with h202 before cutting tho

Oh and I ph to 6.0. Though I am not sure if this is best it's just what I run the water at.

Sounds like your water is getting too hot. Anything over 75deg and you risk slime. I keep mine at 70deg using a chiller. My best results have come using just plain filtered water with no rooting hormone. I find the rooting hormone will slime my cloners within a day or two. Recently I have been...

You could wire in a timer and for the more hvac savy, I've seen guys wire thermostats. Maybe the thermostat was just not included.
