Cheers does each rack have it's own res in this case?

I'm moving into a new grow room in a couple of months and gaining a lot of extra space and most importantly height. I like the idea of growing on shelves multiple tiers with strip LEDs on each tier. Been reading about looking for ideas but I only tend to see soil grows? Ideally I'd like to...

I was hoping I could manage to get 30cm stems from seed but that isn't looking likely

I dont use pots I'm hydro havnt used a pot in 10 years

I plan to use the same seeds but I guess different phenotypes have the same issue? I've been growing for years I'm just trying to find the best way to increase my yield further when I am limited on space. I had the thought that using space for mother's and clones was wasted space but maybe I...

Hi mate did you end up figuring out the best density for yield? I'm considering doing this simply for ease of grow I am setting up a grow space 4.2m x 3.6m I won't be able to access the inside plants so wont be defoliating or removing branches I want to set and forget and use my automation...

I'm curious as to how it would turn out but I have a question Am I right in thinking that as long as everything is kept clean theoretically I would only ever have to buy spores once? So once I have some mushrooms growing I just add more substrate for the fungi to grow into?

So I have an ez cloner. your saying I can just put rapid rooters in there in net pots leave the sprayers on 24/7 and it shouldn’t overwater?

for my seed starts in the rapid rooter only though I am using a shitty light and at the moment it’s not even been pointing at the plants as I havnt made a hanger for this area. It’s literally on the floor pointing at a reflective surface to bounce the light at the seeds as I’ve been lazy and...

I don’t quite understand how that works from that video? Is there just a pump flowing water of the sponge?

Europe mate why?

I would think so too but it’s a joke how my rapid rooters always cause overwatering and the growth rate of seedlings is so slow. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong people say they leave their rapid rooters saturated and don’t get droopy leaves.. I water whenever I see the colour change and I’m...

can you achieve the same thing without hydroton though? I am wanting to germinate into these rapid rooters and then placing directly into a flood and drain with no media in my new system I’m building. I want to rid myself of all the hydroton. My aim was to have the seeds growing in a RR for 2...

Holy shit maybe it is and always has been too much light. This guy posts more photos at the end of the thread which look like how my seedlings started when the leaves curled down... I guess clones may not be as sensitive as seedlings... I hope this resolves the issue

Yeah I didn’t clean my hydroton well enough this time I’m getting sick of cleaning it... using too much of it. I sterilised with bleach and rinsed but dried up roots turned to small pieces and went every where. After this run I’m binning the lot. I am struggling with the ballance between too...

Cheers I’ll give that a go. Does too much light actually cause these symptoms? I can’t find any other reference to overwatering looking leaves caused by light

these are in a vertical system. The netpots are actually on their side. No light gets through them holes to the roots as roots hang down on the other side of the netpot. if I put more balls in these netpots they tend to fall out due to being in the system slightly sideways

What’s recommended for seedlings?

So here’s the top of one specific plant Followed by the bottom showing the white roots And my apogee par meter shows 650 PPFD if I sit the meter right ontop of the plant

that’s my bad attempt at cleaning 400l of hydroton this run around lol. A bit of root left clinging to hydroton from last grow. Not gonna bother attempting to clean in future and just buy new. I’ll dial down lights and see how they go can too much light really cause overwater symptoms?
