DIY with Quantum Boards

I bought a QB 304 a bit over a year ago. I only used it for about two weeks. My ex-wife broke a whole strip of the diodes so only 266 of the diodes function. Enough to flower a 2x2x4 tent?

No till coco? I’m curious about how that works. Share a little info on that please.
This is my first time trying noTill coco with weed, so I'm about as far from pro with it as you can get. Tho I've been using something similar'ish on veggies using my old/used coco with dry dr earth nutes, n it works well. The noTill aspect just means the roots break down on their own, you never dump the pot and clean out the roots etc. Usually people use peat based soil mixes for it, but I dislike using peat.

The mix is just loads of pumice and canna coco remineralized, -> I went lazy mode and just got a mineral kit from Bas. Then nutrient amendments added in plus a cover crop of clover for a living mulch. The nutes added throughout the grow are all via top dressings every few weeks, most of which get tossed down into the netpots.

Anyway, it's a water only/bottle free lazy af system, err minus great white or recharge once a week or so, and triacontanol teas. It's a wip for sure, but I needed a less time consuming system, too busy these days.

There's a lotta noTill info in the organic section for anyone interested.

Nice I reuse my coco as well.
Sunshine mix 4 if I remember right with perlite and pumice.
Was using gh nutes but switching to megacrop and using og bio war brew.
I use fabric pots, mostly hand watering sometimes use blumats but they’re kind of a pain.
I’d like to figure out a better watering system.
Just bought some trays that work well in my 4x8.

For watering I use cheap hydro rings, I've got 6" and 9" rings here, using the 9" atm.

Danner pump for watering via a small digi timer, n a cheap eco pump to send the waste water back outta the tent.
Drain table and a 3 gallon black bucket with fittings for my res.

Oh n pc water cooling tubing lol.

I think I’m going to try my blumats again before I switch. I grow in a tent in a spare bedroom that has carpet so I’m a little paranoid about having a big res.

I think he was confused with the way you titled your grow. coco usually implies that you are hydro. I think you should call your set up a 'coco based no till'

New baby batch .... 2nd tray of five .

2 Peyote Blue - Another SEED experiment ( HSO BD auto x Peyote Cookies auto )
( named it that .... maybe call it sum thing else - Blue PeePee ... lol )

This the last of the BD crosses I did with the BD femme pollen. The Peyote was the other girl dusted with that pollen. Only a couple low branches .... got like 30 or so beans .

Anyhow Wookiee was a GIFT from a buddy but only have 3 beans ... so the last two will get soaked and sown. Picked up a big ass 4 cu yard bag of coarse perlite and will plant a few of these in some hempy buckets. Been a bit since I did ... last ran DYNAGRO but may use something else this time ...
Maybe MC or Maxi , don’t know yet.

Got another MALE going and will post the pics of HIS pollen sacks that will be harvested.
That one is the BLACK AFGHANI x BLUEBERRY that was a TESTER , and gave it a pardon instead of killing it a couple weeks back. Since it is a solid male it will be a new pollen chuck.

QUANTUM will be the 3000k / 4000k rig on 18/6 for the hempy ( Wookiee and peyote )
Other 2 may go in grow bags as a pair ( ice bomb ) and grow to about 10” and pulled for force flip 12/12.

We will see ....
