    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    maybe i need to run more experiements on bud finishers to see what the results are. i noticed on my cherry pie it made the lower buds dense up, but havent ran without for comparison. got some brainstorming to do.

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    the plan for me is to flush with plain RO water but keep using the benefical tea. i think it'll help with the flushing process, but the main thing to keep the roots healthy the last 2 weeks. for me no matter what i run in the res i always go by EC levels, if im running maxibloom at 1.4 ec and i...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    i have not but i wanted to chime in with my setup, (DWC) i cannot add sugars or organic nutrients straight into the res without taking a chance in getting brown slime on my roots. if i want to add something organic i need to add it to my tea brew and let the microbes break it down before it goes...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    also in response to the not dissolving so well, i have read that also. lately ive been lazy and i just put room temp RO water (68 degrees) 3/4 fill on a mason jar, and put the powder in there and shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds and dump into the res instantly. works fine. the first time i...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    Send me that link please. That's actually my planned schedule also. 3tsp grow 3tsp bloom in 10gal. Puts it around 1.4ec (if my math is correct). For first 2 weeks of flower. Then I'm running 10 weeks so weeks 6 7 and 8 I'm cutting maxibloom down a little and using a product similar to koolbloom...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    Dm one could be ok if you don't mind spending a lot of money. Plus dm nutes are pharmaceutical grade chemicals which is what you want. I think canna and dm are the top 2 for cleanest synthetic nutes. But dm one is very watered down. You'll use it by the gallon and it'll add up cost wise. I used...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    here's 3 kens GDP's in the dwc bucket 19 days into veg. and one in soil also 19 days into veg. the one in soil was the biggest and most aggressive rooted one out of all 4 when they were all placed into their mediums. this past week the ones in DWC were started on maxigrow and have doubled in...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    I'm going into my second week using it in dwc. Prior I was using Dutch master. Plants had deficiencies that wouldn't fix even at near 2ec. Now with maxigrow at 1ec, they're a beautiful green that dutchmaster never gave, and growing aggressively. 3x the rate as the same plant in soil next to...

    Any one part nutes that are good for DWC?

    Use maxigrow powder for veg and maxibloom powder for flower. 2 pound bag costs 15 dollars. I just started using it after a lot of research and my plants have never looked better. I use 2tsp (using the provided scoop) of maxigrow in 5 gallons of water. Puts me at 1.1 ec (about 550ppm at .5...

    opinion on ideal PH?

    I just ordered some physan 20. Had to get it off Amazon I guess the grow shops here can't carry it for whatever reason. Supposed to be really strong stuff but supposedly it's one of the few things that will kill the Brown slime I have. Sort of scared to use it. The bene tea seems to keep it at...

    sharing my modified subcool super soil recipe

    Glad everything working for you. I'm trying to take on a whole new beast with DWC now. And of course the synthetic nutrients that go best with it. Definitely more of a challenge and new issues. But once dialed the payoff should be grand. I have a gdp in soil and 3 dwc both in veg. Only going...

    opinion on ideal PH?

    just slightly off topic but as soon as i can save up an extra 100 dollars or so i want to upgrade my RO200 to add the UV sterilizer. I've been having ongoing issues with brown slime. considering my conditions are regulated and in ideal range always ive been reading a lot on it and found out the...

    opinion on ideal PH?

    If you would like my opinion. It could work. 50gpd or gallons per day is pretty low. It says it needs 60 to 100psi to operate. I can't get mine to go above 55 and if it's evening it's more like 45. It will provide 50 gallons at 100psi per day best case scenario. Plus this one does not have auto...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    Hydro guard is the replacement product for aqua shield. They don't make as anymore. You'll get the same benefit plus more just running a tea with Alaska humus. I add mycogrow soluble powder as well but the humus would be just fine

    opinion on ideal PH?

    i dont think you're supposed to go back and forth between down and up. im assuming your diluting the up/down in like a gallon of water before you're dumping into the res and not just dumping straight up or straight down in there? i had that problem you're describing with my tap water. i had to...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    i was looking at the ingredients on the side of the mycogrow soluble and it says humic acid and kelp.. (organic ingredients). this may be why its not a good idea to add mycogrow powder directly to the res. instead brewing it in tea first breaks it all down for the microbes to eat. i tried to...

    I just overdosed on a brownie (effects)

    id give you some brownies that would compete with a strong mushroom trip. in every way. except last time i did mushrooms i understood the true meaning of life and creation. and also understood that because of the higher plane of existance i was on at the time i wouldnt be able to comprehend when...
