Yeah they started out a little stretched but they filled out a bit. I notices the foam piece you were using to hold up the sprout. I wouldn't advise to use that type of material as algae and mold could grow on it from prolonged moisture exposure. An for lighting 100 watts for your first plant...

Yeah I noticed his yellow roots as well I'm pretty sure that there suppose to be more of a whiteish color. But besides that the plants seem strong and healthy.

Slight nute burn could be likely but no to worry the damage isn't severe at all. But if the problem persists and worsens then refer to this troubleshooting guide which is quite helpful. here:joint::mrgreen:

Plants are looking pretty good! They don't seem to have any sort of imperfections. An once you start flowering I'd suggest a DIY in-line carbon filter on your exhaust. Though you may need more static pressure to force the air through the active carbon and the rest of the ducting you have in...

i agree to the 2700K bulbs being hotter with my experiences. either way nice plant you got there.

Right, nice gravity fed hydro system! What nutes do you use seeing as its an NFT system basically? Keep up the cheap ingenuity all ghetto growers.

thanks man i've thought about doing this just haven't had the time to actually create one myself. if i hink it needs anything i'll modify it and of course re-post it with the change log.

Just do it properly twist together, use a wire nut if you have any for a secure connection and good contact, then seal with electrical tape. and remember to keep electricity up high and the water down low because they don't exactly mix well.:blsmoke:

dude i've seen something exactly the way you want this on here http://www.cheapvegetablegardener.com/

I was saying if he wanted to stay organic and an i know usually you use that in DWC. I'd like to know your opinion on it.

lol I was thinking of how I could do this in class today. It's be easy to work with and transportable.

Do you use some sort of ducting with your exhaust because if you do you could add a inline muffler. I'm not sure if you've heard of GrassCity but i have seen an excellent tutorial on how to construct one here.

yeah thats what i meant about how it has advantages i thought to deep into it. bongsmilie lol

Yeah thats my idea exactly. An it could be scaled to an even larger system with the right materials, but seeing how i don't think I'd be leaving it unattended very long its not required. Thanks for the suggestion i think i might do that somehow.

True about the circulation issue I never thought of that cause can't stagnant water produce algae. The way I was think it's more or less gravity fedBasbthe external resevoir is higher than the root mass container. With the water inlet into the root container being the shorter of the two air...

yeah dirt's practically dirt cheap lol.....still could grow some good herb out of it though. cause i more or less think that it more strain dependent. cause hydro just would increase the rate and efficiency of the growth of the plants bringing them as close to perfect as genetically possible.

hi, i'm new to this myself but im'm pretty sure that you can also have an organic hydro grow assuming that you mean't you have an organic soil grow. using molasses as a nutrient in your hydro system. also for a 1-3 plant system can prob set you back anywhere from around $50-100+ if you do it...

hey guys what's up? I was going over a design for a micro grow in my head today using a diy method i saw somewhere on the internet...don't know where though. basically the design requires a small container to act as the the container for the root mass. A 2 liter bottle to act as an...

You could also incorporate a muffler design into it even though it'll slow the CFMs. and it is a basic muffler design already but a second protruding board would muffle sounds as well. There all ready slowed down by the shallow channel if you build the channel deeper it shouldn't matter but at...
