    The Shot Glass Grow Off '09!

    I'm so in on this. I've been need something to go into my PC Growbox that I built. I have 50ml beakers and clones. I think I might be able to do a mini dwc in that amount of space and a 80% perlite 20% vermiculite one as well.

    My first DIY growbox and grow, need some help!

    The air pump should have come with a cutoff valve that fits on to the tube and allows you to close off the air slightly to the stone that is getting more air, it will even out the bubbling a bit. Just add more stones if you think you need more bubbles. I tend to go with the flat strip...

    My first DIY growbox and grow, need some help!

    I have to agree the nutrient part is the most complicated aspect of growing. If you did end up getting the canna line of nutrients, you can go to http://www.canna-hydroponics.com/wrapper/1 and get a schedule setup for what you are doing. Something that isn't on your list is a ppm/ec meter of...

    A possibly new idea for cloning your babies

    So basicly you could take a plant and split it into two plants. Seems like a great cure for a plant that has grown too tall. - Has anyone tried using a rockwool cube, split so that it could be wrapped around the stem, then put some plastic wrap around it to keep the moister in? - How long...

    Triaco-what? It's Found Where? It Does What ?

    Would this be good to add to a compost pile? If so in what ratio would be suggested? I'm about to start a large compost for my garden and if this is a cheap additive that I can buy in large amounts at the feed store, I'm down for that.

    For those of you that say the 3% has other ingredients in it that could harm your plants: - what are these other ingredients? - any sources for this information, i.e. links or articles, or is this all just hearsay? - what would the purpose of the manufacture adding any other ingredients other...

    My first DIY growbox and grow, need some help!

    Most nutrient companies do not sell directly to the public. So you either need to find a local hydro shop or buy online from a distributer/shop. If you are in any major city you should have hydroponic shops locally. Here where I live there is probably 15 shops all over the area. Just do a...

    Hydrogen Peroxide

    Found some info at http://www.h2o2.com/intro/faq.html "11. Where can I buy (industrial strength) H2O2? As a producer of H2O2, FMC deals primarily in full truckload quantities of bulk chemical (4,000 gallons) in concentrations of 35, 50, and 70% by weight. Through US Peroxide (which provides...

    Drooping leaves and plant stop taking in water

    Lowering the water level to the point of only having an inch or so in the bottom, where there is about 6" or so of root exposed inside of the reservoir and another 8" inside the container, not having water on it for over 24hours, should be enough time for the root system to dry out. It just...

    Drooping leaves and plant stop taking in water

    A friend has a plant that is having a major problem. It started a couple days ago and he has been unable to fix it. Started out with the leaves drooping. He realized that he had over watered the plant, because the every other day top off filled the entire 5 gal bucket and started to come out...

    "How plants communicate"

    The idea that they respond to talking to reminds me of a book a read years ago about how water reacts to different external stimuli. They tested this by playing different music or having people either argue or be joyful next to a glass of water. Once the water had be around these different...

    "How plants communicate"

    Interesting you brought this topic up. Had a conversation with a FOAF today about her house plants. She was telling me about two corn plants she had in a room that would not stay away from each other. They were both up against a wall and would turn and grow towards the other plant, no matter...

    HUGE indoor JACK HERER plants...8ft tall with pics

    I'm curious about your watering schedule with the coir. I eventually will change over to coir but for now its all research. You said you water them 2-3 times a day and flood once a week. With this schedule, how much water are you giving them with each feeding? Do you increase the amount of...

    Odor control equiptment question

    I built a diy carbon scrubber that cost me about the same price as buying one, but its refillable. I only did it because I like building everything I can, it helps me learn a shit load more of information than I would have if I had just bought a product off the shelf. For how much better the...
