Fox Farm is really a synthetic with organics added for flavor. As a result it is much more stable in terms of Ph. I had tow amazing growth with it and never checked the Ph once, true I was more of a newbie then but the fact it was never an issue was pretty amazing. Don't expect the same rich...

a bit hostile... but basically right. Be careful not to use surerthive during mid to late flowering if you can help it. It will result in looser, fluffy buds instead of dense nugs.

Foxfarm granualr are not very special ferts, just simple sythetics that augment the partial organics. If the NPK is right and it's cheaper, go for it!

I love them, but you have to be careful. They still have the issue of the soil shrinking away from the walls. The one's I order have drainage holes on the side as well as on the bottom. When the soil shrinks a it dries, you may try to water it and it will POUR out of those side drain holes. It's...

Um live in an apartment... so not a chance of that happening lol. I found them for $14 for 30lb at my local store. So it's worth the cash.

It seems like the electrical energy wouldn't impact the roots (or their cells) directly but would create an electrical "push" that would increase the absorption of ionic nutrients into the root structure. Those chemicals are often impacted by electrical charges. Thats my guess, only because the...

I swear by the stuff.

Thanks! I will just plce some soil aside and mix in the worm castings last, better safe than sorry.

Hi, I am getting back to soil and I have decided to go completely organic. That being said I am going to dish out the cash for some good worm castings for my soil. I know fertilizer and seedlings don't usually mix but will planting the seed sprouts in a soil with worm castings cause any issues...

for a beginner it's usually best to buy a complete system, the little things are what fuck up aeroponics easily. It is a rather easy build though, but if you want to have a third option you can buy the green Machine components and make your own to your own specs. I only wanted 2 channels, not 4...

I would have to say that system is very over priced. FutureGarden sells their Green Machine system for the same price and that is a system with a similar setup but is aeroponic. An NFT system of that size should NOT cost anywhere NEAR that much. I just built an experimental Ultrasonic system but...

Flora Nova is not a great nutrient line for aeroponics, it tends to settle out and produce particulates in the res. A two part nutrient like BC or Three part like General Hydroponics is better. Especially with an ultrasonic fogger, you must have the most soluble nutrients possible for the fog to...

sounds like progress, still you should get some Hygrozyme, it's a cost effective enzyme product that is always good to have in your res.

There are whole threads on the bubbleponics systems, most people seem to have good results with them... although the SH Hydro web site is a bit expensive. Most people are building their own at a fraction of the price.

Read all the FAQ on the subject and google till your hearts content...

Never add clonex to seeds, the IBA stunts germination... often times entirely. Superthrive can help but isn't necessary at all. If you want to give your seeds a leg up use a kelp extract like nitrozime, liquidKarma or Maxicrop. They are hard to fuck up and almost always help.

don't hold your breath... any lighting system with moving parts, let alone a high speed motor, will never gain the popularity it deserves. Simply too much sound and maintenance. Plus there are two parts that can burn out, the magnetron AND the motor. If the magnetron burns out it pretty cheap...

As of recently the only company producing those lamps is LG Korean division for use in street lighting and other outdoor lighting. The company that originally kept the ball rolling was Nurturelite, but they had very limited distribution and no warranty as they described their products as...

I think your right about that, rockwool is pretty picky stuff. I like rapid-rooters myself, come in the perfect state for cloning with no need for additives...

hell yeh it is! That stuff has saved my plant's lives through all my early grows/f*uckups. At $7 a bottle and wide spread availability there is no excuse for not having it in your toolbox...
