just some pics. didn't weight anything, so i can't give you numbers, but started with pretty sticky popcorn/fluff, ran it through a nut grinder to give it a coarse chop, and hit it with 2 cans of 7X filtered butane, boiled it off most of the butane, threw it in the freezer for a few seconds...

the guy at the hydro shop pushed a bottle of final drive on me as a bud hardener. after adding it to my res, my plants took off again sprouting more roots and more pistils. the ingredients on the label, its appearance, and its smell seem awfully similar to super thrive. is final drive (or any...

i didn't want to hijack another thread that this came up in, so i started a new one. it occurred to me a few months ago that i could put an old computer uninterpretible power supply (UPS) to use to backup my air and water pumps in case of a power outage, tripped GFCI, or tripped breaker...

Anybody know of a commercial/industrial humidifier with 5+ gallon res, that accommodates a 5gal water jug, or gets hooked up to a tap?

so my cheap made-in-china digital thermometer/hygrometersays my RH is 41%. the digital hygrometer on my humidifier says it's 60%, and the cheap made-in-china analog thermometer/hygrometer says it's closer to 70%. i don't trust any of them. anybody know of a reasonably affordable and accurate...

my understanding was that PPM is derived from EC using a multiplier which differs from vendor to vendor and is inaccurate to begin with. if that's the case, then why am i calibrating my Hanna with growtek 1000ppm reference solution? shouldn't they give you and EC value instead? anyone know what...

last season was a disaster. whiteflies took over the coco grow. inadequate filtering and nutrient precipitation fouled the roots on the aquaponic side and i my plants prematurely died a few weeks early. i had to keep most of the harvest for myself, but i gotta say, considering all the shit...

i thought i'd break this out into it's own thread, originally part of this thread. i've been testing everything i can get my hands on with my new $30 appliance load tester. got some unexpected results from T8 fixtures. anybody else have a load tester? please post results. here are input...

i've got some cheap-ass T8 and T12 fluoro fixtures from home depot. they've been running for about 9 months. the other day, i had a damp hand (not dripping wet) and made incidental contact with a metal chain that supports the fixtures and got a mild electrical shock. it was kind of like...

excuse my messy grow room. it's been over a month now with nutes over 1200ppm in my aquaponic system. the fish probably account for about 500ppm with another 700ppm in CalMag, silicate, and CNS17. Also add great white here and there. There's probably a little cloning gel in there too. next...

so i've been flowering for a little over 10 weeks now. things were solid for the first month and a half or so, then it got warm, i got busy, and the girls went through a little heat and water stress. some upper leaves dried after a severe wilt. luckily, only one nug died (started to...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-0iFt7JpjY Mishmash of what was ready to go: some indica, some sativa, some clones, some seedlings, some bubble buckets, some soil, some in homemade smart pots using weed-blocking fabric. swapped out MH bulb with HPS on 400watt ballast. adding 600watt HPS in...

So this guy says that the pH in his aquaponic system stabilized at around 7.0 auto-magically: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3gQ_OXREo8 my small aquaponic system (15gal tank, 5gal bed) seems to be stabilized at 5.8 or 5.9. this is great for the plants, but the fish get all tweaky (darting...

i started this thread since RIU doesn't really have any on the suckit bucket. so i came across the "sucket bucket" on a bunch of other forums, but the only guide to building one seems to be this one guys really crappy video with lots of illegible text...

i'm using a kiddie pool that's about 5' in diameter to catch runoff. works great for feeding and flushing. i'm almost 2 weeks into flowering of 3 big shrubs. plants were bone dry 2 days ago, so i did a mini-flush, watering until i started to get runoff, just to get the soil completely saturated...

i have about 10 clones about to get too big for my aeroponic cloner. i have a few bubble buckets going and i like the results so far. and so simple/easy! i'd like to try NFT and ebb/flow so i can compare the results. planning to run everything (dwc, nft, ebb/flow) off of a single, huge res...

2 white widow and 1 bag seed in a "Sea of Bush" under two 600watt HPS after 3 months. Veg, Week 6 http://www.youtube.com/user/haole42O?feature=mhum#p/a/u/0/-fMJCRgKuFw Flower, Day 1 (after 3 months veg) http://www.youtube.com/user/haole42O?feature=mhum#p/a/u/1/Dok4MnKx0u4

anybody ever use one of these? http://www.coolerado.com/ How it Works

replaced 150micron filter with 1micron last week. nozzles are now fine and never need cleaning, but membranous crud in the res clogged the filter completely. who knows for how long! no wonder it seemed like growth slowed. doing a res change tomorrow. going to bust out the wetvac and hose and...

5 week MP aero + fog. next time, going to start with larger clippings. looks ok though, but new foliage growth has slowed. dipped roots in tarantula + great white today and going to do a res change. shouldn't they be a little bigger at 5 weeks?
