I run an ebb and flow hydro set-up. 45 gallon res under a 3x6 foot tray. I recently had an accident. My res got too low, the pump failed, and I lost some plants. I was gone for 3 days and when I came back, the plants were fried. I'm now looking to set up a system that will top off my reservoir...

great call. i pulled the lights all the way up and went to ph-balanced water. thanks!

Sparkafire, thanks for your post. Your idea to take them back to a veg cycle and run ph-balanced water made sense to me. To be honest, it was a tough decision because I could see the benefits of leaving them on the same flower cycle to not introduce anything new to them in their weak state, but...

Thanks all. It's a hard thing to lose a crop. I went to my local shop and showed them pics and they said, probably gonners, but continue to water at a reduced ppm on the same light schedule and wait a few days. A couple of plants look seriously dead, but the top flowers on some of them look...

I flipped my plants from veg to flower 1 week ago. I am running an ebb and flow system. I went out of town and my pump went out and my plants now may be dead. They are still green, somewhat, but completely wilted, droopy, and crispy. I got the pump running again and have started flooding again...

I'm looking for an economic digital scale to measure grams up to a couple pounds. My first harvest is in a bag and I have no idea how much it weighs.. maybe a pound give or take. Can someone recommend a scale that will work for me that won't cost me a bundle? Thanks.

Thanks!! That helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just transplanted my clones that were in small rock wool cubes into the big rock wool cubes, set up the res, mixed it up, and took a reading.. 1150-1200 ppm. They are strong with lots of white roots. Will this ppm concentrate hurt them at this stage? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Probably a dumb question, but I just transplanted my clones that are 3 weeks old that are in small rock wool cubes into the larger rock wool blocks. I got my res set up and use GH nutes and I prepared a 'growth' mix, then tested it and realized the ppm level is in the 1150 range, maybe a bit...

Thanks guys!

I was removing unhealthy leaves on my girls and got resin on my hands. What is the best way to get the resin and smell off? Thanks.

Just to let everyone know my clones survived. I had the light way too close and the temps got way too high and wilted the crap out of them. I raised the light a couple feet and kept the dome on, as my humidity is low in that room, have sprayed them a few times and they are looking alot better...

Thanks. What should the temps be? I turned off 1/2 of my light set and raised the light about 2 feet, so if the temps were too high, that should cool things down. The temp in the room has been ranging from 65 to 70 degrees, but that thermometer is pretty far from the lights, so it could have...

That is perfect. Thanks. Is there anything to do with the leaves and stems after harvest or is the bud the only thing worth working with?

That's perfect. Thank you. Is there anything productive to do with the leaves or stems after I harvest, or is the bud really the only thing worth working with?
