    Power Outage in My Aerocloner

    Hello RIU, in the process of gearing up for my newest grow journal I built my own DIY aerocloner and bubble cloner (just to compare results). I took one batch of 8 clones and a few days later took a second batch of 6, which was last night. As of about 3am last night, all was going smoothly. When...

    Dark Period Disruption

    Hello everyone, so due to a clumsy mistake I made brushing up against one of my timers, for the past two days approximately 6 or 7 hours into lights off, a couple of my cmh lights have turned on for about 30mins to 1 hour. It's only happened for the past 2, maybe 3 days at the maximum. The...

    LB's Wildly Mediocre DWC/ScROG Grow

    Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by! I know that grow journals are usually started from the start of a grow, but this one will be picking up roughly half way through my grow at the flip to 12/12. Just to give some background and basics: DWC Standalone 5 gal buckets Strain is White Rhino...

    Safe to use Epsom Salts while also using CalMag?

    Hello RIU! So, a sulfur deficiency (or so I suspect, bright yellow and even reddish pinkish colored new growth starting from the base of the leaf fingers and progressing outwards) has reared it's ugly head during my current grow. I am currently using the maximum dose of CaliMagic, 5mL/Gal, and...

    First Time ScROGing - Am I On The Right Track?

Having grown autos for years, I've never tried this grow style. Here are some pics below of my current progress. As for...

    Uncle Ben's Topping Method in DWC

    Hello RIU members! So, after growing autos for years I've begun trying my hand at photoperiod, and decided I was going to use Uncle Ben's method of waiting for 5-6 nodes, then chopping just above the second true node. My question is, due to the fact that I'll be basically chopping the plant in...

    Calcium Deficiency? Opinions Wanted!

    I'm growing in 5 gallon DWC buckets under a 315w cmh light, using Floranova Grow/Bloom, along with GH Calimagic as needed. My plant's are just over 4 weeks old, and about 1 week ago they began to hit a very serious snag. My PH initally was kept at 5.8, but since the appearance of these symptoms...

    Required CMH Wattage Per Square Foot?

    Hello everyone, I was just curious if anyone around RIU knew how many watts of CMH lighting per square foot is ideal? I am starting up a new, quite small vegging tent and am curious if a single 315w CMH fixture will be adequate. The tent size is 2ft x 4ft x 5 ft tall. Appreciate any and all...

    Should buds be harsh two weeks after being chopped?

    I chopped my second crop about 2 weeks ago. After maticulously researching it, I began the process of drying. After hanging upside down for between 5 to 7 days, they felt ready to be jarred. They have now been curing in jars for about a week now, however, I just tried some from different jars...

    Has Anyone used this brand/kind of "HI-LED"? (Amare is the brand)

    Looking to convert to LEDs, I was set on COBS. But I saw an advertisment for this product line on the site, using both COBs and diodes....anyway, the brand name is Amare; here is a link to the site. Is this a viable option or are COBs still my best bet...

    Extrordinarily High PPM's - No Nute Burn? Normal?

    Greetings everyone here at RIU; it is nice to see the forum back up and running again. To the point, this current DWC grow is the second of two hydroponic DWC grows, and 4 soil grows, all successful. This time instead of RDWC I am running standalone 5 gallon buckets for various reasons...

    Medicating for Myasthenia Gravis

    I was curious as to whether or not anyone here at RIU has experience with using cannabis to help with MG (Myasthenia Gravis; Auto-Immune system disorder) to stimulate both appetite and energy. The most common medication used to treat MG is very nauseating, so one could see the benefits this may...

    Ph Falling but EC is Stable? (Yet another ppm/ph question)

    So, I'm in my last weeks of flowering (around week9 ) and I've been having this issue for a little while. It only began a few weeks after the flip to 12/12 and buds started showing. As the title suggests, while my ph is falling between .2 and .5 a day, my ppms are staying the same. My first...

    Best Flowering Additive You've Used/Use

    I'd like to hear from my fellow green thumbs about what they use during their flowering cycle (besides base nutrients) to enhance yield and quality of their yield. I hope this might inspire some conversation and healthy debate, because sharing knowledge amongst each other is a great way for new...

    Is 45LPM Enough for a 4 site RDWC Setup? (Noob Question, Apologies!)

    Soo, the title is self explanatory. I was just curious as I've been looking at a new 70LPM air pump. But would the benefits (if any) be worth the cost? Would I just be going overboard and my plants are getting all of the DO they can use? I know roots can never have enough O2, but I also know...
