I built one of these to the exact specs, and lost all of two batches of clones.
The first batch I had to fix the mister to the center of the bucket; solved that but the next batch died also; and never developed any roots. I since have returned to cloning in soil; but my new secret is Foliar...
It depends on your setup. But a few basic principles you must grasp;
1-Don't water at Night..Plants don't need it!
2- Everyone's setup is a little different; I'm growing on a flood table with 4 inch rockwool blocks; I water drip and flood 5 mins 3 times a day; once in first hour and 2 hrs...
My reading has shown that 12on 12off is the simplest and best .
I do believe that veg fluoros are great, and use them with my HID's
before flowering.
I grow great smoke , probably would not want stronger.
Yes, you have probably over watered; get a scale and weigh them daily keep the weight
around 45 grams and they'll do fine.
Don't transplant until you see roots growing out the bottom.
Also read my post on using rockwool cubes.
They don't look too bad. 82 seems a little warm; adults don't like temps much over 80
water them until they weigh 45-50 grams and weigh daily you should be OK;
DON"T Fertilize.
I have scouted around and looked everywhere and this information is NOT to be had; too bad,
because if you are going to grow in 4" Rockwool cubes you need it.
Most instructions tell you to pre soak the cubes for as long as 24 hrs--WRONG. if you do prepare to wait a long time for your plants to...
I built a table out of 2x4's to support the tray-buy a commercial growing tray with drainage channels for 30 to 50 bucks. Don't try to build one out of plywood; which was my first idea --You will never get it to hold water and it will cause you endless problems -- just build a square frame and...
I have used GH pH up with good results. I then discovered that the powder was available, at a much cheaper price. However I was unable to discover, anywhere on the Internet, including the GH site how to mix up the solution. Since I was familiar with the liquid product I wanted to know how to...
My new system features a 2x4 foot grow table; angled down 1 1/2 inches; clones from 2 " rockwool cubes ....14 on the table Irrigation drip from emitters, cycled for 2 minutes per day; Growing in 4 inch Rockwool Cubes on a coco mat 1/4 inch thick. Using GH nutes. Reservoir is 20 gallons. I ll...
I have a designed system that I created by reading lots of posts.
Please let me know if you think it will work OK, or let me know the
problems it may create.
Here is my ebb and flow system:
It is a 2x4 table on which I plan to grow 14 plants in 4inch Rockwool cubes
sitting on a coco mat.
My...
