    cheap odor control

    I've actually made two different variations of Videoman's ona bucket... one is simply a three gallon bucket with a small fan attached to the lid, and holes drilled into the sides. Nobody where I live carries Ona liquid OR Soil Moist, but many places do carry the Ona block. My local hydro shop...

    Drip System Nutes

    Just follow the directions on the bottle. If there are no directions on the bottles, see if they are printed elsewhere, perhaps with the instructions that came with the drip system. Or, better yet, visit GeneralHydroponics.com; they've got a chart on the site that will tell you how to mix.

    Help Plants Dying (Black Plauge???)

    I'm no expert, but the fact that some plants are affected and others are not would lead me to believe that the problems are with individual plants and not your nutrient bath or anything like that. My guess is a problem with your roots. Carefully check the root system of each plant, those with...

    Help! Nute Burn Or Something More Sinister?

    I'm growing two plants under CFL's in a homebrew hydro tub with rockwool and hydroton, General Hydroponics Micro and Grow formulas (using the "vegetative stage" mixing ratios) through a drip system, and I've got an airstone inside the tub. The plants sprouted March 3rd; one is about four inches...

    How often to water?

    My tub is about two and a half feet across, eighteen inches wide, and about five inches deep. It's filled with hydroton, and my plants are in rockwool and mesh pots which sit in the hydroton-filled tub. As far as fresh air goes... this is all enclosed in a homemade growbox (panda plastic...

    first hydro-drip system

    Based on the pics of your setup, I'd wager the video in question is "I Grow Chronic!", also known as the Green Man video or the Mr. Green video. That's the video that got me into hydroponic gardening; it holds a special place in my heart :mrgreen: The underbed container made me laugh, because...

    Reflectors for CFL's

    I've gotten a lot of contradictory information in my web surfing, so I thought I'd ask this here. I'm growing with 100-150 watt CFL's; currently I don't have reflectors on the bulbs. I've considered getting some but I've read in a few places that you shouldn't use reflectors with these bulbs...

    Power Power Power

    Honestly, the bust probably had nothing to do - directly, at any rate - with the power bills these guys were racking up, assuming they were paying the utility bill on time. Power companies are in business to make money, and as long as they get their money when they want it, they're not going to...

    How often to water?

    Cool, thank you. I'll adjust my watering schedule and see what happens. And yes, I'm using rockwool with hydroton.

    How often to water?

    I'm growing two plants in a hydroponic grow-box which uses a drip irrigation system to water the plants. The plants are being grown from seed and just sprouted their first leaves a little over a week ago. I've been watering about five times a day thus far; the box stays warm and pretty humid...

    1 Wee After Germ.

    Take a small, clear plastic drinking cup (like the ones commonly found near water coolers), spray a fine mist of water into it, just enough to coat the inside of the cup, not to pool in it; set it up-side down over the seedling. It will provide the seedling with much needed humidity since it...

    Jiffy Peat Pellet Cubes for seedlings..

    I've put my jiffy pots in water and nuked them for about 20 seconds. The pucks suck the water up quickly and expand to full capacity. Oddly enough, every time I've ever used Jiffy Pots I've had problems with whitefly. One thread in another website forum suggested that whitefly eggs might lay...

    Discoloration on Rockwool

    I recently plopped some seedlings into rockwool cubes, four to be exact. The cubes are 2x2 squares. I'm using a drip system with General Hydroponics Micro and Grow solutions, using the "general purpose - mild" mix recipe. This is all in hydroton pebbles under about 18000 lumens of cheap flouro...

    Metal Storage Cabinet grow cabinet?

    I just built something similar to this... You're gonna need some way to cut a few holes into your cabinet and a few fans, one for fresh air intake, one for exhaust, and maybe a few smaller ones to make sure there's good airflow in the cabinet (good airflow will help prevent certain foliar...

    Computer Fan Wiring

    This reply is a bit off-topic but when I read the above-quoted post I couldn't help myself... Speaking as a parent and a responsible cannabis user, growing in your parents' home without their permission is incredibly disrespectful and stupid - if your garden was discovered by law enforcement...

    the man who cannot sprout a single seed :(

    Bit of an update, I guess... one seed, which has been folded up in wet paper towels for about a week now, appears to have cracked, though no taproot is yet visible. I'll check in on it again in another 24 hours or so. Also germinated six bell peppers and six cayenne peppers in the same room as...
