    Dr Atomic Northern Lights #5 (Different From Atomic NL)

    Beware, even Dr. Atomic states on his site there are many knock-offs of his strain. He even has a list of authorized resellers on here http://www.dratomicseedbank.com/buy.html I have his NL, took it to 8 weeks and am taking 1/3 over the next 3 weeks to see how she plays... first cut is...

    Second Hydro Grow. Anybody know what's wrong with these ladies?

    Looks like rotting to me, too much moisture, air circulation issue perhaps.

    what size dwc

    On my DWC side I use 80 liter rubbermaid-style totes with 6 or 8 grow spots cut out of the lid. 12 inch air stone/bar (expect to change it every crop) and an air pump. This setup drops about 10-15 liters per week (weekly top-ups and measures) and with the stability of a large volume of water...

    H2o2??

    um... how old are the clones? No roots after 15-20 days goes into the compost heap here.

    Not to be rude, but you've posted the same questions in a number of forums and sub-forums. I don't mind helping people out, but no one here is going to do all the work for you. All the answers to your questions have been posted here 1000's of times. All the info is out there, you need to...

    grow help

    People grow all kinds in all sorts of places, this sounds okay, but the devil is in the details. My advice, take the time to research existing compact grows and look at what they do. RIU is full of examples. My immediate reaction is your lighting is going to piss you off. The various camps...

    Tripping...the breaker

    I'm in an older home and used to have the breaker issue... problem was hidden junctions a previous owner had done, with the circuit stretching to outlets I never considered. Do yourself and your family a favor and make it safe. The largest cost in new circuits is really the wire. Circuit...

    Choosing a nutrient line for my first hydro op, what do the fine people of this site

    Having tried a few brands over the past 5 years I can't conclude that one is better than another. I don't have any quantitative data to share, but I rather take it from a practicality perspective, what is easiest to work with and gives the girls what they need. I like the BC line, however, I...

    10in of growth in 8 days? Please read, lots of pics

    obviously don't want to be pruning too deep into flowering; hard choices to make, have to think about what 6 more weeks of flower would look like. Usually, the first few weeks have a big push, as you've seen, then the vertical growth slows and they bulk up. You're in the zone now.

    10in of growth in 8 days? Please read, lots of pics

    not a bad problem to have. I can't see the pics so I can't comment, but if it were my grow, I'd try to accommodate the growth, and if need to prune, I'd start from the bottom looking for nodes stretching for light (they're a nuisance later) and work up.

    H2o2??

    The solution for your bucket heat seems simple enough: can you not get a bigger res? Even if I used a 5 gallon pail, I doubt my pump would heat the water up as it cycles.

    hydrogen peroxide used throughout a grow .

    Good to know I have additional buffer if the need presents itself. Sadly H2O2 is regulated to 29% for civilians here as my countrymen undoubtedly use the stuff for acne treatment. Just strong enough to teach you a lesson.

    Ebb and Flow Feeding Schedule Question

    listening in: Starting my first 4x2 table and have read/heard mixed information about this. From what I gather, much of the reasoning is around the amount of water the grow medium can hold and the rate it which it returns/drains. A medium like rockwood will retain more water for a longer...

    hydrogen peroxide used throughout a grow .

    Use it with every res change. I use 125ml of 29% per 70-80L (1.5ml/l). It's truly remarkable, it's saved some of my grows and since I've begun using it regularly, I've rarely had issues. In times where root browning has occurred (res water left too long) I've added 250ml (3ml/l) for more...

    First Grow w/ Northern Lights from Dr atomic LED

    Sucks that the light stayed on Sobs. I wouldn't worry too much about the discoloured fan leaves, looks like they are the larger, older ones anyways. The rest of the plant looks good from what I can see. I'd just pull those other ones off. Nice NL grow.

    DWC flushing times

    I've not flushed at all over the past 3 or 4 harvests and have notice no appreciable difference in the smoke. The black/grey ash test seems to be B.S. too, the only time I've ever noticed black ash is jumping the gun and smoking something that wasn't quite dry yet. Try for yourself and...

    Quantitative Airstone Test. an end to the hype

    Hey legallyflying... great test and quite enjoying the ensuing discussion. For shits and giggles, why not try one without an airstone? Just sink an open airline and see what that's all about. Just an idea, an maybe a valuable indicator that airstones actually do something! Thanks again...
