I think that is why he said to avoid GMO sugar. GMO sugar is likely to have come from plants that have been sprayed with glyphosate. The microbes in our soils have not been genetically altered to withstand the glyphoslate. So adding sugar from GMO plants will likey add glyphosate and hurt...

Curious as to where you were got the relative ratios you were mentioning. I'm new to this stuff and would love to learn about it. There isn't a plant or animal based organic way to get Mn to sufficient levels that I know of. Mn Sulfate is the only option. What kind of product is a...

So is the issue mixing the sulfates with the borate? Can I mix up all the sulfates together in water and mix the sodium borate in a separate jar? And this is only an issue is dilluting in water and storing right? It would be fine if stored dry, right? And if put into solution for a water...

I didn't pick the ratios. The ratios are as the recipe calls for. The recipe from Solomon's Intelligent Gardener Complete Organic Fertilizer. He gives ratios by volume. I just assumed equal density of each product (which might be wrong, but should be close) and then figured out elemental...

Biomin Booster 153 is also a OMRI product that has them in a chelated form. Tad Hussey from KIS Organics discussed this product with Steve Solomon during the interview. I don't know what chelated really means (something to do with claws), but it makes me sound like I know things when I say...

I like the Calcium idea. Quickly searching I found 100% water soluble gypsum that is not too costly. Well $5 a pound is kind of costly if using at scale. Can I work it by volume? My mix would be something like this (by volume?) 1 Part Borax, 1 Part Copper Sulfate, 1.5 Part Zinc Sulfate, 2 Part...

I have been trying to grow with organic amendments, but after reading Solomon's Intelligent Gardener I've decided to try out his method for trace elements. He recommends the sulfates. Manganese Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Zinc Sulfate, and also laundry Borax. His "complete organic fertilizer"...

Here is the tent as of today. Shows a mix of some of the older damaged leaves. Shows some of the holes. Some of what looks like burned flowers. Lots going on. It’s time to water. Seems like the best thing to do now is maybe just give pH’d water and a Great White dosing. Maybe til I get a...

Thanks for the reply. I’ll admit I’m no good at identifying deficiencies / toxicities. The issue was first noticed on the back right plant about a week after flipping to flower. Yellowing tops, but different than the lighter color you normally expect in the center of tops. The issue was...

So I seem to be chasing as Calcium deficiency. Probably some other issues too, but that really isn’t the point of this post. It is getting later in flower and I have been feeding 2-0-0 Cal Mag. As much as 10ml per gallon in week 3 of flower. Now in week 5 of flower and wondering if the extra...

So did everybody replying in this thread have the “new” Vivosun design with “improved” bearing and the 12month warranty? Is the new design any better than the old one. They come with a 1 year warranty now, so wondering if it is actually improved - or when this “new” oscillator design came out.

lol I saw this thread, read the first answer - and thought the same as you. White to white, black to black is correct - but it is not SERIES. If you want the same voltage at each, you use parallel. That guys been confused for a decade.

Thanks for all the input. I think it is going to be an original Gorilla Grow tent or the cheapest tent that fits my specs. Not sure if anything in the middle would be worth it. I may build a grow cabinet instead of buying a tent - or build a cabinet to house the cheap light leaky tent. I...

Been looking for deals on a 48 x 24 x 72 (to 84)” tent and recently realized that much of this Chinese stuff sold on eBay or Amazon is the same thing being drop shipped either unbranded or slightly modified with a unique label. Vivosun, MarsHydro, AC Infinity all offer the same tents with...

Seems like two issues. I think one is Calcium deficiency. The other issue looks like aphid damage. Both mostly on new growth. Some leaves have small pin holes, some have larger sections missing as in these pictures. 10 days into flower. Temps 70-82. RH 53-57%. LED lighting. 3 OG Kush plants...

Im dumb. I just realized that if I split the other loads (lighs, fans,...) between the two circuits, I can put about 750 watts and a DeHu on one circuit and the other 750 watts and the AC on the other circuit. I think the breaker (and wires) would like it better if I was pulling 750watts and...

I understand that. My question is about whether or not small appliances with compressors really do need a dedicated circuit for each compressor and what it takes to trip a circuit breaker. How long the start up current lasts? And how long can a 15 amp circuit exceed 15 amps before it trips...

I was hoping to have both set to a desired temp and humidity and leave it automated. I’m trying to design a grow room using only two 15 amp circuits. I have one circuit loaded up to 1200 watts (lights and fans) with intermittent power up to 1350 watts (other fans, humidifiers, ... stuff that...

50-70 pint DH’s usually say 6.7-7.8 amps on the label even though they only pull about half of that long term. They can pull 33 amps at startup. Not sure how to find start up amperage for an individual model, but I’m assuming EACH will be over 15 amps by itself. But the start up current doesn’t...

Can I run a 5-8000 BTU window AC which normally operates at less than 600watts plus a 35 pint per day humidifier than normally operated at less than 400watts. The constant draw when both are running should be around 8-9 amps. But can the circuit handle both compressors? If hot and humid and...
