how often to flood ebb and flow?

Hydroponics / Aeroponics how often to flood ebb and flow? I have 2 4x4 tables and a flo n gro system. each table under a 1k hps and the flo n gro under 2 1k hps. The tables have 5inx5in pot with straight hydroton in sog style and the flo n grow is 5 gal baskets with straight hydroton with trees. I've been flooding every 2 hours but to me it seems like too much. Just pushed the tables back to every 3 hours and flo n gro to 4 hours.

First time hydro, going to try Ebb/Flow - is this a reasonable plan?

Hydroponics / Aeroponics First time hydro, going to try Ebb/Flow - is this a reasonable plan? Hello everyone! I am hoping to get some feedback on my first ever hydro plans. Im in the final weeks of my first MJ grow in soil and its going pretty well. I have decided that I want to try a hydro grow next time around. After tons of reading, I have decided to try an ebb/flow setup with two plants in scrog. My grow tent is roughly 7 sq ft (28”x38”x48”tall) and I have a 300 watts LED light fixture using 3500k Solstrips (the same led’s as in Quantum Boards). I have read a ton of threads and...

Second go at first grow in new UC system

Hydroponics / Aeroponics Second go at first grow in new UC system My first attempt at growing in my new undercurrent system went from bad to worse rather quickly. I ended up getting root rot and no matter what I did nothing helped. Tried a compost tea, cleaning the system with h202, soaking roots in a mixture of nothing but water and h202 and finally returning the girls to an h202 treated solution. In the end every time new roots came in a couple days later they would turn brown. Ended up getting rid of the girls and sterilizing my system with chlorine and...

PH rising when adding to grow systems

Hydroponics / Aeroponics PH rising when adding to grow systems Wondered if anyone has had this issue. I run oldschool gen hydro power grower drip systems. I premix nuts and pH adjust 20 gallons at a time in separate resevoir. I then add to individual buckets as needed. I do a complete flush of buckets every 14 days. What I've noticed lately is I can pH adjust my nutrient mix to anywhere between 5.8 and 6.2 but when I add it to the individual systems and then check pH there it is 6.7-6.8. My plants look perfectly healthy but Id like to get this... PH rising when adding to grow systems more info...

DWC PPM Confusion Again .. ( Nirvana NL )

Hydroponics / Aeroponics DWC PPM Confusion Again .. ( Nirvana NL ) Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has grown Nirvana's Northern Light (Reg) before in DWC ? . I am on my 4th DWC grow and am still experiencing issues with what is claimed to be one of the easiest strains in existence to grown indoors. If that's the case then I have no clue what so ever what I am doing wrong here. On my first run with this strain I had posted here with issues back then with nute burn and the plant adsorbing too much salts, damn thing was dehydrating itself and leaves...

The Membrane Meniscus System

Hydroponics / Aeroponics The Membrane Meniscus System Hey everyone, after reading about the membrane meniscus hydroponic system on Larry3215's thread: https://www.rollitup.org/t/three-types-of-hydro-in-a-small-tent-on-one-airpump.960095/ I did a little digging, got in touch with the inventor Andrew Parker and also read his book on the system. On paper it seemed like the next step in hydroponic systems as it claimed to be a recirculating system where the PH and EC dont change throughout the grow, the roots get the maximum amount of...

clones not rooting in aeroponic cloner

Hydroponics / Aeroponics clones not rooting in aeroponic cloner I recently built a 21 site aeroponic clone machine. Its been about 5 days and nothing has happened. The clones look good still, are standing up nicely and the machine appears to be working like its supposed too. But no roots yet. Whats the deal? I thought these things rooted clones faster than rockwool cubes? The strain is double bubble kush berry- bubba kush X bubbleberry. I took the cuttings, trimmed the excess, cut at 45, split the stem up center 1/2", dipped in rooting powder, and... clones not rooting in aeroponic cloner more info...

Water chillers?

Hydroponics / Aeroponics Water chillers? Hey guys I've got a 5gal dwc bucket and I've been struggling to keep my water temps consistently below 70f. I've got my bucket sitting in a tub that I fill with ice/frozen water bottles when I wake up and also when I get home from work. By those times the ice is melted and temps back up so I feel like what I'm doing is a waste xD I've heard people talking about water chillers n such but never seen what exactly I need to get to make one! I see chillers on amazon but they just look like a... Water chillers? more info...

Hydroponics / Aeroponics Calcium Hypochlorite [Ca(ClO)2] dosage i mixed up some homebrew clear rez last year, fortunately i wrote 1g/gal on the bottle. If i recall, this was basically a concentrate and cant remember what the safe dosage is for cloner and/or ebb and flow res. thanks more info...

Aerogarden Bounty LED - Final results

Hydroponics / Aeroponics Aerogarden Bounty LED - Final results I figured I'd post some quick pics of my first Aerogarden grow. The Aerogarden Bounty edition comes with a 45w LED so I didn't expect much. In fact, I bought the thing to grow lettuce and peppers but they couldn't keep up with the nutrients required for the cannabis, thus eventually died off. I grew these to plants without any special treatment. They basically grew on my night stand with no odor control, no supplemental lighting, and using the same fox farms nutrients including Open Sesame,...

Help plants just start 4th week today.

Hydroponics / Aeroponics Help plants just start 4th week today. Does anybody know what’s wrong with my plants. It was said it Can’t be over or under watered since I’m growing hydroponic. I’ve also tried multiple things to get my temps inside my box down. It was average 90+ degrees. But you can see my new temps on grow meter. I just changed the water an put in nutes a day ago. It could possibly be wind burn since I had a small fan pointed directly at my plants but it has been 3 days since I moved the fan upward. more info...

RDWC position of Pipes

Hydroponics / Aeroponics RDWC position of Pipes Hey all, building out my first RDWC that will be running in a 4x4 grow tent and wondering what happens if your pipes don’t connect at the very bottom of your containers? I want to leverage the hole near the bottom of the tent to run said pipe through but that would mean it would be roughly 6” up from the bottom of the container to stay level. more info...

I want more of the hydro growth speed for my mothers. Want to keep fewer of them so I need them to grow faster. Should I do two 30 sec drips a day?
