Hey al, Long time reader, First time writer.
First id like to say thanks of course, because your advice has been nothing short of incredible/life saving, Lets just say a freind of mine had the impression that his sulfur vaporizer (same as yours) had to be on for 4 hours a day, And you saved him
.
Anyway to the point,
I have many questions,
First in a similar setup like yours but with 2 gallon ebb and gro buckets would it be feasible to put 2 "zero veg" plants into the same pot on either side? split it in 2 kind of? Im just asking because i see quite a bit of room and im sure the roots would figure something out
.
second, Any experience with advanced nutrients connessuier? insanely expensive superbloom that i have heard nothing but good things about.
3. Ever heard of the strain c4? If you havent you should find it, and maybe its time to think about switching strains because this strain would explode in SOG, (soon to be proven) and it < smells like lemonz
4. I also have a little soil op i just switched to loose rockwool/ grow cubes, Should loose rockwool be watered more or less often than soil? it seems the soil holds more water for longer periods of time.
5. I was also tricked into using molasses for a while, my pet fruit flies loved it but my plants didnt seem to react to it
.
6. Any suggestions on once and for all getting rid of these damn fruit flies? I have used gnatrol which seems to do nothing but smell bad, H202 which makes them freak out for a second but their always there the next day, I have fogged which obviously took care of the problem, but their back now and im further into flowering and would rather not fog again (i vent to my roof which makes all the critters in my roof want to find a way out into my house when they get hit with poison gas)
7. ( i know, so many, im sorry) To keep spider mites out of my op completely (had them recently grr) what do you reccomend? Running the sulfur burner for longer? getting a UV filter etc? I just want to make sure that even if they get in they will be dead within a day. without hurting my precious babies
.
8. A freind of mine had a big spot of mildew on his stalk, yet didnt listen when i told him not to harvest it, What is the possible damage that can cause? Is there any way to really tell if bud is internally "coated" in powdery mildew?
9. I am seeing, And have been seeing for a while, TINY little bugs, randomly in my flowering plants, That look like microscopic frogs, they dont seem to be doing any harm, They usually chill near the top of the plant, definitely not spider mites. any idea of what they are?
10. (im sorry to get all the way to 10 but this is like having an interview with jorge cervantes
) a freind of mine with a similar setup to you vegged half of his plants for a little over a month in rockwool slabs, The roots of the plants all grew togethor and he had to cut them apart, Now he is trying to transplant them to his ebb n grow but the slabs are huuuge and i told him that obviously the rockwool shouldnt be soaked 5x a day as this would just cause problems, The proper thing for him to do is just kind of set them on top of his hydraton and let the roots figure out where to go (down ) right??
