    PH testing water with nutrients.

    Are you using an aquarium pH test kit?? If not, I think you are using a kit that is designed to read the pH of clear water (such as a pool or hot tub.) Most folks use a digital pH meter.

    R/O filter advice.

    No pump. You are filtering your tap water; use the tap pressure as your feed. My filtration system is located in my laundry room. I simply placed a "Y" adapter on the cold water feed; one side goes to the washing machine, the other goes to my filter. You may have a deep sink and just want...

    R/O filter advice.

    If you only want to remove sediments, I would suggest building your own. You would only need two filters (housings and fittings as well.) http://buckeyefieldsupply.com/showproducts.asp?Sub=145&showspecials=145 You can custom build it yourself , or you can give them a call and have...

    R/O filter advice.

    If you are interested in removing the iron from your water, you would want to use particulate filtration, not reverse osmosis. If you are interested in reverse osmosis, you would want to use particulate filtration as well as carbon filtration prior to the RO filtration. For iron removal, I...

    soil vs hydro

    I agree. Two different roads to the same destination.

    What Additives Do You Use?

    You have a mindset that is going to get you excellent results. I use Foliage Pro as a base nutrient. Since I use RO water, I also use Mag Pro to give a little bit of an increase in Mg. Finally, I use Pro Tekt; really nothing more than adding silicates, which is not a bad thing if you are...

    Who here does NOT FLUSH!

    I don't flush my plants. A fine cigar is lit with a wooden match, not a butane lighter. I would think that if a few flushers and non-flushers learned how to light their ganja in a proper manner, they may actually learn something about taste. In the end, they are your plants, you do whatever...

    Canna Boost or Bloom bastic,???

    I would just settle for a picture of a plant with "bling bling" deficiency. Even more amusing when you consider that there is a market for this kind of nonsense.

    What's a Good Alternative to Hydroton?

    I prefer Sun Leaves Rocks to Hydroton....by quite a large margin. Much less rinsing, heavier, easier to stake, much less rinsing, etc...

    Kushie Kush

    Since I don't know what a "Kushie Kush" deficiency looks like, I have never found the need to use it. Sounds interesting????? Sounds like a load of bullshit. Do you honestly believe the folks at AN have somehow figured out a way to isolate kush from anything else to the point where kush...

    Trichomes, cloudy=good, amber=shit

    That's a great way to look at it. Amber = shit..........I guess that makes me a shithead.

    how often to change reservoir water?

    I change my water every week. Probably more than required, but it certainly doesn't do any harm.

    RO system necessary for hydroponics?

    Definitely not necessary, but certainly worthwhile to look into. Aside from feeding plants, I drink RO water (I get compliments from guests on how good my water tastes). Yet another benefit of having RO water is that is makes a great spot free rinse for cars, motorcycles, or whatever you wash.

    Help! Breaker Problems!

    I don't know what type of math they are teaching in government schools these days, but watts = amps x volts. Two 1,000 watt lights will draw a minimum of 16.7 amps from a 120 volt source and 8.3 amps from a 240 volt source.

    bush master

    Bushmaster the weapon, or Bushmaster the snake oil? Their firearms are nice weapons. The stuff they put into a bottle and sell to growers........I'd have to know exactly what "Bushmaster deficiency" looks like.

    Reverse Osmosis help

    A few things to consider: Pressure and flow are inverse to each other; as one goes up, the other goes down. Also, pressure is like energy, it cannot be created nor destroyed, only converted. If your home water pressure is 65 psi, that is the maximum pressure you will ever obtain; to be...
