    Airflow question when drying..

    Couple questions.. I'm gonna be drying by hanging lines in a 8x12 room. 1.) I have a big CAN100 (I think) filter that I have standing up in the room with a 6" fan on top of it blowing air up towards the ceiling to get rid of smell.. Is this enough airflow? Or perhaps too much airflow? 2.) I...

    Dry/Cure Confusions..

    Over the years I've had different ways of drying/curing, but perhaps never got it down to a perfect science.. I have some confusion from reading different books, and hearing conflicting answers. What I usually do is as follows: - Trim fan leaves and small leaves off plant - Cut plant into...

    Branch and internodal bud trimming?

    Thanks for the input guys.. I'm interested in hearing what others think? How far into bloom is it worth cutting the small stuff off, and still have a positive impact on overall weight? I know the earlier the better, but sometimes you just really can't tell what kind of weight a branch or node...

    Branch and internodal bud trimming?

    So my plants are in bloom about week 4. I always get rid of the smaller "branches" towards the bottom of the plant a couple weeks into bloom once I can see their lack of potential, but this time I took it a step further.. I've actually gone ahead and removed roughly the bottom half of each...

    Cloning issues..

    Yes, we were talking about a cup of water when we referred to changing it daily lol.. But thanks for all the good info. Its always nice to hear other growers methodology. As for cloning in a cup of water, ill say it again: it doesn't work very well at all. It takes 2-3x longer to see any roots...

    Cloning issues..

    Good luck sunbiz.. As I noted above, its always produced poor results for me, but then again I've never changed the water since it was just leftover cuttings. So who knows, knock yourself out ;) So again, does anybody know the exact weight a wet rockwool cube should be? I could've swore I read...

    Cloning issues..

    Budbro - Although I agree a couple seconds is probably plenty, I'm shocked to hear you suggest squeezing water out of the cube! This is a huge no-no! It will remove the small pockets of air within the cube, and cause the cube to have no aeration. Instead, you should always just whip it with your...

    Cloning issues..

    PS. Its not too cold in the room I put the clones, probably around the 60s. But I'm just guessing because I don't trust the thermometer I have in there so I didn't bother to look. PPS. When I use my aeroponic cloner, they root fine.. so that eliminates temp being the issue I suppose. Also the...

    Cloning issues..

    Do you guys think I should use Rockwool cubes, or Oasis cubes? (only answer if you know what both are, and have a reason for your opinion. If you don't know what both are, say so).. Also, how long should I soak my cubes for? I usually do like an hour. But some people say to do 24 hours, and...

    Cloning issues..

    My journal is from my past grow. I have since scrapped it, started a new grow, and just started flowering (which is why I'm rushing to figure out this clone problem). I no longer use big cubes, I use the 1x1s like u said. Anyway, the temp in the room seems fine, but do you really think using a...

    Cloning issues..

    I've tried multiple ways of cloning before.. Rockwool cubes, Oasis cubes, and Aeroponic. The only way that I can seem to get roots to pop out lately is with my homemade aeroponic tub.. But since it leaks (tried 2 different kinds of tubs as well as sealing techniques) I most recently decided to...

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    First of all, its not root rot because right before I cut them off I sprayed them first and sure enough the parts that came clean exposed roots that looked fine. White with slight discolor from using organic nutes and such, but not rot.. Besides once u have rot u can't fix it, only try to...

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    I decided to cut the hanging roots, ill let you all know how it goes. Anyway, I googled the active aqua flow-grow system and its the same price as the ebb&gro. However I'm worried about its lack of fame and users (it seems to be rather new). Also it says it has a 7gal controller bucket. Does...

    Ender's 4,000w Hydro 12-site (6x White Russian, 5x G13xHaze, 1x PurpleWreck) + CO2!

    I agree with everything you've said.. Except my co2 controller turns off right when the lights do, and believe it or not the co2 reading drops to baseline shortly after. So turning off co2 an hour before shouldn't make a difference. I'd keep it on til like 15 before lights off. Just fyi.

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    I don't have anything in the bottom bucket just to clarify. Never have, I know its supposed to be empty. These flo-gro buckets sound pretty legit. I like the fact that they bottom feed, but how does that work exactly? ill have to check them out.. Anyway the roots growing through the bottom of...

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    More mixed answers.. As far as pureblend pro goes, it may be a 1 part nute but its made for hydro. I like it. But it very well may be causing the sludge on those roots that are dipping into the bottom bucket. I need a definitive answer here though.. Trim them or not?

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    There's not a 'big empty space', I'm just referring to the small amount of water that remains in the lower bucket (below the water line outlet). I lifted the top bucket out to move it and that's when I saw the roots dangling thru the bottom of the top bucket.. It doesn't look like slime, its...

    Can I trim roots hanging into the bottom bucket?

    Ok so here's my problem.. Some of my plants have been getting burned leaves and/or signs of nute deficiencies here and there, some worse than others.. I grow in a ebb&gro 12-bucket system (fill and drain) type system, with a 50gal res.. I just switched some of my plants positions with others...
