    Need help building hydro setup

    Well...let's see if I can help.... this is a hybrid setup you relize 1) depends on the size of your pots and how far you space them...also on if you're doing single cola or bush..... 2) 2 0r 3" net pots will be fine........your rootmass is going to be in the pipe, not the pot per se. 3) well...

    PlEaSe Help DWC wilting!!!!!!

    I'm not a DWC guy...but sugar water is a bad thing in hydro......Not sure it's that one, but one of the carboloads is just blackstrap molassas and water....did you just start adding it?? If so, that's the likely culprit..... I tried something like that years ago in my ebb/flow and ended up...

    The world's cheapest hydro setup.

    And my buddy has been at this since I set him up with the first light and clone 5 years ago........he has never upgraded a thing, he smokes about an oz a month so he has 2 a month to sell and pay for everything......$400 profit and smokes free......He's happy with that and I bet 70% of the folks...

    The world's cheapest hydro setup.

    Well, as I said...lighting is pricey regardless..........If you're growing indoors, you need lights.....whether soil or hydro. I'm just saying you can start out cheap..........Lights first, then a cheap ebb/flo..........you will have the money you save on weed to upgrade as time goes...

    The world's cheapest hydro setup.

    Honestly guys, hydro doesn't mean big, fancy automated systems......it means growing without soil. Lighting is pricey, but that's true regardless... You can do it as easy as this. Seeds(preferably germed) or clones are started in the 1" cube, as soon as they're rooted the 1" goes into a...

    Easy question about flowering time

    I never heard the weeks for bloom as being from the day of sexing.....until I've seen it a few times here in the last few days...... As far as I know, it's from the day you put into 12/12.......but it's a guesstimate anyway.....most indicas finish around 8 weeks from light cycle change and...

    Hermies Question, HElp Appreciated

    If's it actually a hermi all you can do is try to watch for balls and pick 'em off.........usually they're right at the node site, but they can pop up anywhere..........If you come across a tiny yellow flower, harvest within a week... Seeds will add weight, so the yield question is beside the...

    ebb/flow is the easiest thing in the world and gets good resuts without a lot of fuss............. I only use 4" rw cubes, when done I sqeeze the water out and it's the size of my fist..........32 cubes will easily fit in a standard black trash bag and away it goes...I just toss the squeezed...

    Poll for rollitup. Medical vs Illigal

    Denver Man Charged In 'Medical Marijuana' Slaying

    Yep, the more stories like this, the more the public turns against us.......Yesterday they were claiming Mexican drug cartels had shipped people here to grow on government land and claiming it's all organized crime.........first of all, if it's legal, how can it be organized crime?? And...

    unidentified insect...with pics.

    Wow, can't say I've ever seen them. I did look at fungus gnats, which look really similar except your's have no wings and I would think that they'd have them as soon as they emerged from larval stage. One of the sites recommended catching some on a sticky trap and taking them to a pest...

    Rockwoll Hydroponics

    My entire grow is 4" rw cubes....no slabs, no rocks.....I just set them inside a 6" pot for spacing and support..........I actually only "flood" twice a day at lights on and two hours before lights out. By flood I mean it reaches the overflow, runs a few minutes to aerate my solution then...

    Noob with a sex question

    Yep, and yep.........I'm pretty sure it's a male, but you have time before it matters........maybe a week or even two........you'll know without doubt before a flower opens.......look for grape-like clusters or that ball about dead center of the pic to start pushing away from the...

    C02 Question

    OK....according to what I found it says 8.7 cubic feet from 1 lb of dry ice........and hydrofarm says a 50# tank holds 440 cu ft........8.8...... At just under the 1 cu ft/hour rate a 20# tank will make it one week running 24/7....160 cu ft.

    C02 Question

    I have a CAP CO2 meter that measures the levels once per second and opens or closes the valve........I think I paid right around $200........ I hooked it to a controller that keeps it from running when the exhaust runs...... I used 20# bottles...two per week for a 700 cu ft room...and only ran...
