I am making some seeds by pollinating some females, my question is how long after the harvest is the pollination still active? After I harvest these plants I plan on putting more plants in the same tray (after cleaning the Hydroton rocks) to go right into flowering. I do not want these...

During that three day period do you change out the water again or just run the same water through it for three days?

How do I flush a hydro system, just fill the res with RO ph'd water and let it run? (gonna add clearex) If so how long do you leave it run? and how many times would you change out the res before mixing up nutes again? (I am in the middle of a grow, so I'm not flushing to harvest) or would you do...

I am redesigning my grow room, and am thinking (2) 3X3 trays side by side or (2) 2X4 trays end to end, I have a light mover with a 8' track. I am also considering a homemade AeroFlo system, but have a lot of questions on the construction and use of it. (would like to build my own) I don't use...

I have been looking at them, but i like the challenge of building my own stuff, could you give me some info on this setup? like for starters how far are the netpot holes apart from each other? (center to center) and are they staggered from tube to tube? I am assuming you have completed a grow in...

It's a ebb and flow setup, and it's a 3X3 tray I am going to put two of them side by side with a 400 watt HPS on a 8' light mover, I want to yield 1 1/4 pounds from that much grow area. I am figuring at least a ounce from each plant. (Rhino) I have been reading only 6 to 8 plants in a 3X3 area.

Not sure I understand what your saying 16 to many? i was second guessing maybe 12

How many plants can i put in a 3X3 tray, i am running a 400 watt HPS and am thinking on moving up to a 600 watt system, I believe a 400 watt bulb can effectively light a 4X4 area. (So it's a little overkill in a way) The main issue is how much room does each plant really need? Is 16 plants possible?

What gives? I just bought a truncheon nutrient meter and there are 4 different scales to select from EC/CF/PPM X 500 and PPM X 700 Could someone please break down what these are and how they differ? When using the ppm calculator on the GH web page: General Hydroponics Flora Nutrient PPM...

I have a couple of lights and some other stuff for sale, However i won't go into detail because i don't know if we can sell stuff on here (I don't wanna get booted)

If I am not mistaken the transition you posted (don't have the bottle in front of me at the moment and am experiencing a bit of couch lock) is actually the mix for a mild solution. the amount recommended on the bottle returns a ppm of around 1900+ so by only using half of that would put you at...

OK i was just messing around with the ppm calculator, I selected teaspoons for the unit of measure, I selected 7 gallons of water (these figures are for transition to flowering) which is 2 teaspoons per gallon of each bottle. I used 14 teaspoons of FloraGro, 14 teaspoons of FloraMicro, and 14...

I talked with somebody from GH and they told me that the final number should be multiplied by 2.5, I even asked the guy why don't they tell you that on the web page, and why is not just factored in? He said he was not sure, but it's been like that a long time. Could it be just another person...

Do you multiply the reading from the nutrient calculator by 2.5?

I bought a couple of waterfarm's and am wondering if they will be adequate to grow mothers in? (for cloning only) my concern with the waterfarm is will the plants have enough space for the root system? Would a 24" 2 bulb New Wave t5 be enough light for 2 waterfarms, or should i go and buy a 24"...

What's the difference from the 1500 ppm solution and the 1382 ppm solution? I am not understanding the tds reading as apposed to the ppm reading. My views on it are this, It's two different methods to achieve the same goal. what is the ppm. (it's just that the final results are displayed in a...

I can help you out with some of it, I am a stay at home gardener and I use a ebb and flow system.

Just an update, I learned a lot about my Hanna 9813-0 meter today had some good email correspondence and just wound up giving Pete a call (the guy i was emailing back and forth) I did not realize that the meter had a built in temp gauge and the differences between the 9813-0 and the 9813-5 is...

I clean and calibrate my meter once a month, the cleaning process is a 2 separate solutions part A and part B, the probe is placed in part A for 5 minutes, rinsed, then placed in part B for 5 minutes, rinsed, then back in part A for 5 minutes cleaning complete. Then on to solution 4.01...

The leaves are a brighter green then normal, and the tips are pointing down on the ends of the leaves, and some of the leaves are actually starting to roll.
