    What is your starting EC (tap water)? What nutrients are you using and ratios? How long are you waiting after adding ph down to get a read?

    Get a pump with a warranty man. My local hydro shop carries mondi pumps with a lifetime warranty. If it breaks you bring it back and get a new one.

    How to get the organic taste with chem nutes.hey organics in hydro is diff.

    The secret to good tasting hydro buds is don't burn them nutrients and dry and cure properly. I've had side by sides of the same by grown organically and synthetically. The hydro bud was denser. That was the absolutely only difference I could see taste or smell.

    EC never goes down.. Help a Noob day :)

    Lower starting EC. Lower until plant is "eating" more than "drinking" (ph rises; EC drops). Then start raising it again until the water level drops and EC stays constant. You're plant is then "eating" and "drinking" the same amount. If your EC is going up and PH is going down you need to lower...

    why is my ph climbing ?

    Pretty normal for well water IMO. It will also raise if any water is added from an ac or dehumidifier. I'll set mine to 5.5 and come back and it'll be about 5.8 to 6.0 24 hours later. Also dry ph down absolutely sucks IMO. I recommend you try some liquid bluelab ph down and see if that helps.

    How often should I change my hps bulb?

    I replace a standard single ended bulb every harvest. I replace a double ended bulb every other harvest. The companies can claim whatever they like. My lumen and par meter shows me the degradation in bulbs. So that's what I go by. I don't check anymore, and just replace on that schedule.

    Ttystikk's vertical goodness

    It was normally 1 gpw. Unless I just had a bad run. Plant numbers have a lot to do with the structure of the plants you're grow. A plant with no side branching will need more plants per tray. a plant that naturally bushes out will need less plants per tray. I'd say what I was growing was right...

    Ttystikk's vertical goodness

    Because it uses calcium nitrate along with it. That provides the nitrogen.

    looking for a good control and monitor system

    If by trimeter you mean ph EC and temp. Bluelab guardian connect would be something to look into. Nanolux will be dropping the controller you want sometime this year. I'd wait for that.

    lucas formula question

    Sounds like this is in the wrong section. This question would make sense for dwc, not drain to waste. If it's drain to waste, idk what your asking. If it's dwc your plants are taking up more nutrients than water. Meaning you need to up the ppm until it doesn't change but the water level...
