so I wouldnt have to worry too much about heat without aircooling with that hood?

Im running 2x 600w hps under 2x diamond reflectors at the moment, but there isnt enough spread with those relectors, the outside plants barely get anything at all. So I'm looking to get a larger reflector for more spread. I was looking at the Magnum xxxl hood, but most people say dont run...

I dont find it makes my plants light green or premature leaf drop using all the way through. Maybe strain specific? As I have heard it isnt as effective with sativa's. Your PPM's should also be telling you if your plant is getting enough or not, do your ppms drop or go higher when using...

How many cheese bombs you growing? Out of a pack of 10 you might get 1 or 2 not so good expressions of a strain, maybe through sheer bad luck u got them? It is possible that cheese bomb isnt so good, ive never tried it..

Good info, Im also on my 2nd run of berry bomb, 1 out of the 3 phenos stretches a LOT, however for me it is also the top yeilding pheno, but you do need to flip it to 12-12 early for this pheno. As for hermies - I did get some seeds in my last run (on bottom growth mainly), but a freebie seed I...

yeh i check it everyday ;) its been ok for 5 days since first using it and i'l be dumping the res in about 15days to start flushing.

Do you add molasses every watering in flower?

Im running chem Nutes so i wont be running teas etc also that should technically mean no benificial microbes. Im just using it as an experiment as i have been reading a lot on carbs in hydro and some people are saying that some of the sugars in carboload dont need to be broken down first to be...

i got some carboload and put it in about 1/2 strength, no negative effects yet and its been 2 days, i'll know if it improves anything in 1-2 weeks i suppose.

cool i must look into them, the one i got was like $10 on ebay, it does work, but must produce some uneeded heat and doesnt work externally.

Lol, i dont. I have very expensive air pumps (about 400-500 dollars). I just dont use water pumps(except when emptying the tubs) thats why i got a real cheap one. I tried flooming with it once just to see what would happen, and thats when i got growth on it.

Ive never read any of their stuff before, just found it through google, who are they?

I run h2o2, thats why im looking for a carb suppliment that doesnt require microbes to break down, one that roots can intake straightaway, if it exists.

Yeh the really cheap pumps cant be used externally, but il have to look into a few good ones i suppose :)

Everytime i put a pump in a dwc tub it gets mould growing on it due to the higher temps it creates :(

Without pics its hard to say, but could be a nitrogen lockout or lack of nitrogen, or maybe u need calmag as a lot of nutes are lacking. Just a guess though without pics.

I was thinking that until I read this - http://www.cocoponics.co/hydroponics-products/advanced-nutrients-carboload Which basically is saying that carboload is possibly just corn syrup based - heres a quote "A little common sense detective work by our rooster and hen research team leads us to...

I prefer using ppm for myself as it is more accurate (you can make tiny adjustments). However when discussing nutes online, it would be easier to quote EC to cut out any mistakes. Though this commrnent is a bit misleading "If a carpenter took a finishing hammer to frame a house it would be...

General Hydroponics are great. Search for "lucas formula" on this forum, thats what i use, only 2x nutes (micro and bloom) needed for that.

Ive been looking to add some sort of carbs to a DWC grow and have read a lot about some companies using molasses as the base for a lot of Carb additives and a lot of people just say use molasses. However in hydro afaik, molasses isnt a good idea, I've heard it clogs up stuff and causes foamy...
