True, If you have a ten gallon reservoir or more you would probably need two but ive seen it done with one online. However for big commercial systems the iceprobe would be worthless. It is very cheap to run, at most $1.27 a month during the hottest month of the year.

I have done the ice bottles, tubing, and etc. and nothing compares or even comes close to the iceprobe and lowes five gallon cooler. It takes roughly twenty minutes to set up, remove the drain from the cooler expand the hole to fit the iceprobe "homemade iceprobes are very cheap" through then...

Ive done all kinds of crazy stuff bottles, pipes, and etc. but nothing compares or even comes close to an iceprobe chiller and lowes 5 gallon cooler. Took twenty minutes to set up, i have it set to a thermostat as well so it wont get too cold, temps are a perfect 68F all day long even in the...

I have researched toxic levels of the micro nutrients churchhaze and found out toxic levels of zinc start at 200ppm. Fatman recommends a mere 5ppm and its even higher with zinc sulfate since it releases it more slowly than pure elemental zinc. Iron starts being toxic at 178ppm "fatman recommends...

Aqualron or just about any dtpa chelated iron product varies + or - by only 1%, So plugging in those numbers on hydrobuddy or even using fatmans recipe will give you accurate results. Toxic levels of iron according to texas a&m university start with most plants at 178ppm so you have a large...

My dad tested the potassium nitrate from ebay and it came back 98% pure. The rest of the chems i have no idea but seem to be doing just fine as far as the grow is concerned. I did look for the best deals and most of the agricultural suppliers in the states were selling in bulk and the shipping...

LOL...definitely not suboptimal in my case. The two commercial brands im using "fox farms and dyno gro" have now become the substandard nutes. I am at the point of just selling the remainder, if not i will be using the commercial brands for my lawn and garden till they are used up.

Yea im thinking about using one of hydrobuddies bloom recipes for flower. However they do have commerical brands that have a higher nitrate ratio for flower. So ill probably do another comparison grow using different types of blends along with fox farms and dyno gro. One guy who mixed his own...

If you read what i wrote in my post i stated boric acid and dtpa chelated iron. Take a look at the first list of ingredients where it list the specific type and place i bought those ingredients from.

It wasnt actually fatmans recipe, the numbers were from a commercial brand he plugged into hydrobuddy, he just used different ingredients. Anyway we had this discussion before churchhaze and we both came to the same conclusion. Everybody has their own idea what the perfect formulation is and...

If you think one of the macro or micro compounds is too high or too low you can always adjust the ingredients with the nute calculate aka. hydrobuddy. Hydrobuddy even has recipes for grow and bloom. Just type in the ingredients you have, plug in the desired numbers and it will convert the recipe...

No, just using fatmans recipe, Instead of using a whole gallon as the concentrate im using half gallon for each of the bottles. I found out that half a gallon per bottle is perfect for mixing ingredients. I first did a gallon for each a and b and it seemed really diluted. Had to add a lot to get...

The next comparison/experiment will be with hdro, however i can only do two plants at a time. Will post the results with pics on a "tor" account. Hopefully it is not a fluke with this current grow but i doubt it. Very impressed with the homemade stuff so far, cant believe the difference, hoping...

All this stuff cost about a $100 bucks it wasnt cheap, however it will last years if not decades. Still a WAY WAY better deal compared to the commercial crap ive been using. One gallon of that crap cost $60. You will need two different types of scales, one to measure the bulk stuff and a smaller...

No its from seed, It is called OG #18

Put out 4 ww clones in coco coir, and started a comparison grow using fox farms, hydro gro and diy nutes "fatmans coco coir recipe" on the other two..The diy nutes have been doing AWESOME..Noticed a difference about a week into the grow, now the diy nute plants are shooting up way past the...

Go to ebay and type in "5lbs Air Water Filter Refill Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon Charcoal"..This stuff last me 18 months.

Not sure which strain to grow, C99 or OG Kush? Which would you choose and why...

Most hydro nutes have extra calcium and iron, so no it will not mess up your soil grow if not the opposite.

Doesnt piss have a lot of sodium in it? I might be wrong
