LOL! added a banana! I don't think that is going to help much. I don't think you will get enough gas from that banana to do much.

dem tomatoes will suddenly fully ripe in like 2 days once they're done growing, no need for mr banani's ethylene gas 
you can always just pick them and wait if you think the size is good

Not sure if its coincidence or not but I picked 2 tomatoes yesterday and have probably 6 more that are close to ready. Before adding banana it was weeks since any ripened...

This is an indeterminate variety so it should keep growing forever and the fruit usually ripens while its growing. Maybe I should try a determinate variety next tho, just to see how it does... This one is getting a little big for the space!dem tomatoes will suddenly fully ripe in like 2 days once they're done growing, no need for mr banani's ethylene gas

There are Dwarf Indeterminates
I believe one is “Husky Cherry Red”

Installed RO filter last night, PPM now consistently 30ppm, how should this affect my nutrient program? Suggestions?

If you are staying with the Nova Bloom, try -
3ml Botanicare Cal-Mag
4ml Nova Bloom
That should give the needed nitrogen bump

I thought I saw a link to a fertilizer calculator at one time in here but not finding it now. Anyone have a good site to calculate PPM from specific salts?

Good looking plants mate! Is that hydroponic Borage? Damn, good stuff, and it looks good too... Do you feed it like if it was cannabis? I've got some planted outside in the soil, and they're not half as lush as yours. Might as well give it a try... But i didn't because people kept saying that they had problems with the roots and stuff, so i didn't try them on my aeroponic systems.
Thanks for sharing!

No hydroponic, just pots and soil (approximately 40%molehills+20%perlite+20%recycled soil from cannabis plants+20%ewc)
And I am feeding plain calcium rich well water (ph >9). Tomatoes getting some dilluted flower nutes here and there (when I mixed more nutes than needed for the cannabis plants). Especially the borage is growing like a beast, expecting some flowers soon. Soil is pretty wet, tomatoes and peppers aren‘t happy with it. But it should be a salad bar anways. Just experimenting atm.

So here we are 55 pages later and still working at this.
I have some custom recipes going for testing purposes over lettuce and also testing cobs.
@robincnn and @Stephenj37826 - we know you boys are not in cannabis safe zones and that is just perfect. Care to demonstrate some Qb's in the corner of your offices growing some full sized lettuce plants?

Quest owes me a dehumidifier. I'll get an AC and give it a go. I think a mix of 5k 70cri and 4k 90cri will do wonders on lettuce ..... Let's find out.

Hey lads, heres a grow i started in late december and finished a few months ago, some micro dwarf tiny tim tomato plants under 2 luminus cxm22 3500k 90CRI in 50/50 coco/perlite mix growing in a 2x2 tent, also bush cucumbers that had to be moved out due to size constraints.
This is where i start to realize these cucumbers have got to go..
one cucumber move outside.
plants were getting too big even for micro dwarfs so i moved some outside, including the 2nd cucumber.
Kept two on the original tiny tims, both has an insane amount of flowers and budset on them.
Plant on the left had just shy of 100 cherry tomatoes on it.
