Finished the drain to waste system and tested it, works flawlessly. I will pour bleached water down it once a week to keep funk out. Now to put together the HP aero and fire it up. Will take some pics when I am done. I could really use some help on what PPMs to run. GTS

Fatman used expensive programs that are used in the greenhouse industry and academia for formulating nutrient recipes from available raw fertilizer components. Fatman was banned in part because of his ascerbic personality, but more so because the fertilizer companies felt threatened by him...

That's a good deal for that price. I have had good luck with Milwaukee meters in the past. Converting ec using .7 conversion (which most people here go by) 1 ec = 700 PPM 2 ec = 1400 ppm .5 ec = 350 PPM ...

I bought the parts for the drain system. Each tote has a drain hole on the bottom center that is connected by poly hose to a 1 inch PVC pipe that runs the length of the room. The totes are staggered so the drain pipe runs through every other tote. Here are some pictures: The upper...

I have decided to convert one of my rooms to Drain to Waste High Pressure Aeroponics. I am doing this for several reasons. 1. Almost zero chance of getting root rot 2. PH does not change 3. PPM does not change 4. Plants always receive pristine, fresh nutrients 5. Cheaper, don't dump 50...

A picture would be nice

Pythium sucks. I have had to toss out quite a few plants myself the last year. I think it's time for me to go aero next grow. You are right. Once your system gets infected, it's hard to shake it. I went with rdwc problem free for a couple years then bang got rot on one plant. Since that...

There is no need for using all that other crap. If you do, just be careful not to poison your finished product.

The ingredient used in hotshots is used for stored grain. You know, grain, the stuff that you EAT? It is MADE for food. It is also FED TO CATTLE to get rid of parasites. It has a very short half life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichlorvos

"When you can see roots they can handle the nutes"

Get forbid 4f, spray them once during vegetative stage and mites gone for the whole crop. Do this once per crop for the next six months and you are cured...

They work, but you have to use them correctly. For them to work you have to wait til your lights go out, turn off exhaust fans and hang them in the room and let them fume up the room til your lights come back on. Of course you turn your exhaust back on before the lights come on. Every time...

If you are having deficiencies you have PH problems. You need to start calibrating your PH pen regularily, and if it does not calibrate GET A NEW ONE! If you are using a hydroponic fertilizer then you should be OK. If you pen is not calibrated, you get things like this happening. If anything...

How wet are they? Looks like over watering. They get that weird curl when they are water logged. Let them dry out until they pots are light weight. You can also use a little hydrogen peroxide.

Yeah they have good deals. The mythological fatman used to recommend them back in my cannabis culture days. They have some big RO systems.

This is just fine for drip. I would run my emitters 15 minutes only twice a day until I saw roots coming out the bottom. Once when the light came on and once 9 hours later. When I saw roots, I would increase to 15 minutes on 45 minutes off. When they started budding I would run them 15...

Predators don't do shit. Turns into an endless losing battle. Neem kills bugs but not eggs. They come right back. Get Forbid 4f and be done with it. Mite holocaust eggs and all. Why battle them for years when you can slaughter them and be done with it? Dont use Forbid 4f during...

Use a pressure washer. Cleans it in a few minutes with little effort.

Get forbid 4f. Spray then once during vegetative, no mites the rest of your crop, it kills for about 6 weeks after spraying. Just spray it on the leaves, kills eggs and mites systemically right through the leaves. Do NOT use during flowering. Look on ebay for small amounts. 1 ml makes 1...
