Using food grade H202 (35%) in hydro reservoir

I've been having issues recently with my holding reservoir (32 gallons) going rancid in just a matter of days recently. What I mean by that is there is clear slime on the air lines going to the air stones and on the water line of the plastic trash can. I even have a pond pump in the bottom to add circulation. My water temps are around 76-78 and I suspect that might be my problem. I then started reading about adding 3-5ML/gallon of food grade hydrogen peroxide to my reservoir to keep bad...

Vigorous growth but ugly plants

Hi, this ist my 4th or 5th grow with this aeroponics system. i use ro water, 150-200ppm calmag, ghe trio and used some Heisenberg tea. the plants grow very fast I check my tent in the morning and evening and I can see the growth BUT the plants look very strange. Curvy leafs and the leafs look dry. I calibrate my guardian every 2-3 weeks and double check the ph with another ph meter. this is week 3 I can say it’s not the ph, it’s not humidity because I try to use the vpd chart. I...

For All Cap Ebb and Grow Users

I have been trying to find a good thread about the cap e & g system but haven't been able to find one yet so thought I would start this and see if I can get a good discussion going and compile a good overall document on the system. If you are using the cap e & g system please give your feedback to the following questions and feel free to add anything else of interest you can think of. What medium do you use? Were there other mediums you tried and then switched? I have tried stg...

NER flexability

How often do you change ner based on def, toxicities etc. ? just curious as seems like one parts are the way to go with calmg supp as needed. does having a 3 part make it easier to correct issues if they arise? I like the gh professional charts and gh products. do you just adjust the ml/gal if you have NPK issues or add another feed to frequency schedule or lastly, step up to medium lvl feed? assuming vpd/light intensity is at its medium best (1000ppfd led) fed twice daily in flower? i...

Reusing runoff water in coco

So let's imagine I am growing in 3-5 gallon fabric pots, with coco/perl. I am watering, putting in, let's say 1.2EC, and the runoff is somewhere from 1.1-1.3EC. Now I know that I can not use that runoff water over and over because (i assume) it will have exudates that you can't allow to build up over time. But what about reusing that runoff water just once or twice? or do I just water the garden outside with it? from Hydroponics / Aeroponics Learn more about hydroponics Visit potads uk classifieds for 1000's of 420 adverts

How should I clean my hydroton/clay pebbles??

I have been growing hydro for years using rock wool as a medium. A few months ago a friend of mine moved out of state and gave my all of his clay pebbles. So I used them and I grew a huge plant that will keep me smoking for quite a while. My question to all of you hyro hipsters is, How should I clean these thing up? Using rock whool is easy, toss it into the composter and get new chunks. But what to do with all these dirty little rocks??? from Hydroponics / Aeroponics Learn more about hydroponics Visit potads uk classifieds for 1000's of 420 adverts

RDWC with air lift pump for circulation?

How would an air lift pump work in a RDWC system? I can't seem to find any examples. Maybe I'm not searching the right keywords? Should keep O2 up and provide a slow recirculation. Planning on building multiple systems with 2- 5 gal buckets and 10 gal res's.

Beneficial Bacteria in Hydroponics

Curious to what bennies you guys use in hydro? If you use any at all. Ive used Great White for years but lately the leftover powder sediment it leaves at the bottom of the reservoir has been bothering me so I gotta scrape it with a stick every time and it got annoying so Im using Orca now. Not sure if bennies actually helps in my flood and drain setup but after I slowly cut down on my nutrients cost...Ill then test if beneficials is actually beneficial in my hydro setup.

New Grow, setting up RDWC

After my successful grow in DWC (10 gallon tote), I'm ready to start a new one. In my last grow, I had only one plant in the tote, the roots were massive...and the plant was massive too. Harvest was around 300 grams. Here's the picture of the plant and the roots: Now since the plant was filling up (although I could've done a...

Can you set up an automatic watering system indoors, while your on vacation?

Right now I am ordering my plants manually with a spray bottle and a little cup. I am wanting to know what sort of setup I would need, to connect to my kitchen faucet which would allow me to automatically water my plants while I'm gone or even if I was there. I've seen various setups including container but which will work best? One side of my apartment is pretty far from the faucet so it would need its own holding tank but the other side is really close where I'm going to grow my short...

I'm overwhelmed. Questions about Reservoir-/Nutrient-Management and how Plants take up Nutrients.

Hi hopefully someone can help and explain me some of my problems. I have some questions about how plants take up nutrients and how to manage the nutrient reservoir in different situations.

Ro System with or without alkaline filter

Hi, i would like to buy a ro system for dwc and can’t decide which one to buy. there is waterdrop g2 that produces pure ro water and frizzlife pd600-tam3 with an alkaline filter with (>7.5ph) and remineralizes the water with calmg but not much. Still under 100ppm. I know that with pure ro water I get ph swings specially in bloom. so which one makes more sense pure water mixed with tap for ph stability or the frizzlife life system ? thanks from Hydroponics / Aeroponics Learn more about hydroponics Visit potads uk classifieds for 1000's of 420 adverts

Ebb and Flow Volumes for Res vs Medium.

Hi All Thank you for any help. I have a fair bit of experience growing outdoors in my younger years. I have never been comfortable with having an indoor grow, but I have relented because of the obvious advantages. I have decided to build myself an automated ebb and flow system using 74 litre nested storage bins but with a remote reservoir for the nutrient. I estimate the Medium area will be 60 litres filled with hydroton and I estimate the res will hold 55 litres full of nutrient. I have a...

My Ebb and Flow grow

I’m on my fifth total harvests using this method and equipment. On my second harvest since moving to this new location that allowed me to build a larger flower room with taller 10 ft. ceilings I had to settle for a smaller crammed veg room though. My 24 5-gal buckets are set up in 4 rows of 6 that have net pots filled with hydroto that run to a 13-gal controller bucket that feeds every 4 hours for 30 minutes. My reservoir is 200-gal cooled by two 1/8hp chillers. I have a blue lab reader for...

How clean do Flood and drain clay pebbles need to be?

How clean do the expanded clay pebbles have to be in a flood and drain system? This is my first time using them and I keep rinsing but the water is still a bit cloudy, it's no where near as dark as it was, I can see through it but still a bit cloudy. Any info on what problems this might cause if any? Thank you. from Hydroponics / Aeroponics Learn more about hydroponics Visit potads uk classifieds for 1000's of 420 adverts

Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

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...
