Thinking about purchasing a 4x4 flood tabel to upgrade from my hd mortar tray. I have wanted one for a while!!!. ANyway. . . How many gallons do i need to put on the table. I only want to flood a few inches up. I use rockwool. I wondering if the whole table will need like 10 gallons? Just hoping i could use a rubbermaid 25 gallon roughneck as a reservoir. Use a cardtable with a whole drilled in it and the legs chopped as a cheap stand. Fig i could load say 15 gallons in a roughneck... how many gallons for a 4x4 flood table? from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Good Afternoon RIU, I ordered the Autopot 12.4 gallon autopot system and now I am planning my required accessories. i assume that I need to have a pump in the small reservoir (12.4 gallon) in order to keep the nutrients mixed. Can anyone recommend a good ”power” setting that I should be looking for. This may be a stupid question, but How many GPH should I be looking for? I see a few Vivosun options, but I’m concerned with purchasing a pump that is either too weak or too strong. Anyone...

When I start seeing majority of trichomes turning cloudy but no amber should I start flushing for 2 weeks for an ebb n flow system with no media. I am thinking if I wait until the trichomes are mostly cloudy by the time I flush for 2 weeks the trichomes will have alot of amber when ready to harvest, which is what I'm looking for.

I've battled aerocloning forever! I've used bleach and different oxiders to keep bacteria away. Eventually it always comes back. I've followed permaclones cleaning regimen over and over! I've actually got some clones going now for 1 week looking fine. No callusing but no mushy stems and clones still look great. I remember one summer when I built my first aerocloner I had great roots but heat caused root rot so I added hygrozyme in there and roots healed and exploded with growth. My question...

I have noticed when i run dwc/hydro my grows require lower ppms than my coir grows. Its at 300 ppm by this stage in coir im usually running 400-550.

Outdoor growers are heading inside now so I thought if might be a good time to start a thread on how you can harvest a pound every three weeks from a 7x8' closet. I'll take you through my process from start to harvest. What is different about my system vs. others? 1) 3 separate Aero/NFT flower systems allow me to run a 9 week flower cycle. This allows the buds to fully ripen and also allows me to run strains with more Sativa in them. 2) I... Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks! from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

I took the plunge 3 days ago and transitioned my entire garden over to jack's 5-12-26 from GH's maxi grow / bloom, and all of the plants look fantastic at 647-675PPM! That's pretty incredible to me, and explains why my jack's grown flowers taste and burn better. I have to feed GH's maxi grow / bloom at 775-825PPM to prevent deficiencies. Jack's gets the job done at nearly 200PPM less. The plants are growing and are as happy as they can be with significantly less fertilizer input, so the... 3 days on jack's 5-12-26 and the plants are loving it!

Hi guys I'm looking to run an autopot set up with Coco/perlite and wanting to run the full house and garden range (incl amino&root exceletator) Has anyone tried this set up before as I'm concerned about sediment settling at the bottom of resivoir I thought a decent water pump to keep things moving should sort it? from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Hey guys I just got my TDS (total disolved solids) meter and gives me readings in PPM, and I'm looking to convert it into EC (electrical conductivity).

So ive told a bunch of people about this and everyone ive seen do it has had good success. This is how I start all my seeds and transition them into rdwc. This method will work fine for any form of hydro you might use a rockwool cube or rapid rooter to start seeds in. I use a mixture of perlite and coco in double layer seedling trays.

Hey guys, first time poster. I've been trying to get advice from facebook groups but this issue has left everyone there kinda stumped so I'm bringing it here hoping you guys will have some insight. This is my second DWC grow I've started, the first one is still ongoing and not going so well as I developed some root rot which severely stunted the plant, so I figured best to start from scratch.

im just about to try my first grow in hydroponics. in a NFT system. its something ive never tried before. but i understand the plants grow bigger and faster. but my question is if i veg for a month. before i put them into flower. is it worth bending the plants side ways. or pinching the tops out to get a better yield. many thanks for any reply's from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Over the last couple days I've been working with a 3d modeling engineer on Fiverr (because my 3d modeling skills suck) to produce a square hydro halo for 6" pots. We've gone through a couple revisions but here's the latest. It's on the printer now so I'm not positive it's 100% perfect but it should be very close. I'll follow up once it's done printing. I can post the STL file if there's anyone out there into 3d printing that wants to try it. Just thought I'd share. from Hydroponics / Aeroponics read more

Hello. Recenlty I set up a small RDWC system with some autos, and this keeps happening. I'm running plain water, no nutes, pH and ppm seem acceptable, it's spring over here so temps should be OK too.

So I had given this 1 cap per 3 gallons of big bloom from fox farm a few weeks back. This is on a DWC system.

I've been growing in hempy buckets for years now and the yields are excellent and the grow process is fairly simple. The one thing I've been very dissatisfied with is the condition of the roots after harvest while I'm dumping out the perlite / root ball. Also, the roots do not spread through the entire medium. They reach for the reservoir at the bottom and there are absolutely no roots throughout the perlite other than the feeders down to the res. The roots are also not glistening white even...

Hi, I am in budding now using GH nutes at a ratio of 1-2-3, 1 grow, 2 micro, 3 bloom. I do not want the finished product to have a high leaf to bud ratio. They are ten days into flowering and have tripled in amount of plant material since I turned them.
