    Are you experienced?

    yea, I bought one of those scopes from Radio Shack, but unlike others, I've had a hard time actually being able to use the thing. I took a leaf off and the trich's were clear going to cloudy...that was about 4-5 days ago. And yes...CFL. 315 watts (105W x 3). I added two spot 25 watt lights to...

    Are you experienced?

    Like Jimi says....and for all of you that are experienced, this is my first grow and this hawaiian sativa has been in flower for 10 weeks, to me it appears at least 50% of the hairs have died back and the trichichomes are starting to give that "sugary" look especially in the flash. I'm thinking...

    Stealth Hydroponics & 1st Grow

    I started one earlier, but didn't follow-up on it so I'll post everything I have from seed, to current growth. I'm growing in a 4x4 tent. I have to use CFL in order to minimize heat. I used Hawaiian seeds from our trip to Maui, 1 seed from our brother which came from some medicinal smoke in...

    Looking for your opinion

    They have gotten bigger, but I had to tie them all up as they were getting ready to snap the branches. Only a few more weeks to go, maybe one more flower bloom then I'm going to flush water for 2 weeks. I'm thinking 3 weeks till harvest?

    Looking for your opinion

    Thanks! The plants came from some local Maui smoke we had while on vacation there in April 2007. They are being grown in a Bubbloeponics DWC set-up. Originally bought from Stealth Hydro, I made a few mods to make it actually work (the little air pump they give you is essentially worthless...

    Looking for your opinion

    These 2 Hawaiian Plants were planted as seeds on Sept. 11th. The are 5 weeks going into 6 on flower. How do they look and how many more weeks would you guess before harvest time?

    First time Stealth Grow

    I haven't posted in awhile as I have been watching and learning from my grow. Thanks to this site I learned alot and put it into action, thanks to everyone who posts. I also wanted to wait and see about how this system can work. You judge...

    4 WW in a DWC

    I'm running a SH kit with the 11 gallon res and six 3" holes. I immediately bought a 60 gallon dual outlet pump to get more air into the rez.....this will really help put a halt to root rot getting a good start in there. The SH nutes so fa simply suck for me. They *never* completely dissolve...

    browning roots

    I replace my reservoir every 7 days. I use R.O Water only, and I dump a few tablespoons in the 5 gallon R.O. container...then dump it in the rez. By changing out every 7 days and adding H2O2 I keep bio growth down to a minimum. As my plants use nutrients and water...I replace with water only...

    Tired of the brown roots leading to rot?

    Hydrogen Peroxide and Horticulture By Bryce Fredrickson Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is a clear sharp smelling substance very similar in appearance to water (H2O). Like water it is made up of Hydrogen and Oxygen, however H2O2 has an extra Oxygen atom in an unstable arrangement. It is this extra...

    curlin downward

    maybe it's time to start using some H2O2 to increase the available oxygen to the roots.

    First time Stealth Grow

    Yes, the roots should be in the water. As soon as the roots hit the water, the plants explode with growth. It sounds like shorty did everything right but somehow it still didn't work......I'm not sure what to say. And yes, the roots are exposed for a number of minutes while I change...

    First time Stealth Grow

    I think I also avoid problems because I'm pumping a large amount of air in the tank. I also top of my rez every day. I don't know, so far so good. I'm keeping an eye on the roots. I more week..... and it will be the only week of full strength nutes for veg, and then I'll go to bloom. So on...

    First time Stealth Grow

    I added 1/4 strength nutes when they all showed their third set of leaves. I started adding H2O2 right away...like the first change out, but a very weak solution...1 tablespoon in the 6 gallons. Every change out since then I have just taken the 3% solution (cheap drug store bought) and tipped...

    First time Stealth Grow

    This will be my first grow ever. Never tried in dirt, indoor, outdoor...nothing. I am using the Stealth Hydroponic kit that Roseman was so successful with. I understand the limitations with this system so I'm not expecting to produce the best plant, I'm just trying to grow medicine to save my...

    A noob's guide to doin it right the 1st time

    It's that hard to get quality water there? If that's the case, get the big cook pot out and BOIL your water. For the life of me I cannot understand why you would *want* the drama of trying to be successful in hydroponics with a poor quality water? The plants look good otherwise. The...

    stealth hydro bubbleponics

    I'm sorry to hear it's not working out for you, I have had zero problems so far with the SH set up. Granted, I'm not expecting some miracle grow as I know the limitations of this system. It's perfect for what I have available to grow with. I would love to post some pics but I have no idea how...

    stealth hydro bubbleponics

    Couple of things and I think you had them covered. #1. Use good water...RO preferably, DI is fine. #2. Add more airstones than that simple little one they give with the kit. #3. Stop light from entering the tank. This means getting covers...whether you buy em or make em...get those net's...
