    Water level tube for buckets?

    I prefer to have a level sight so I can just glance as I walk by to see if there drinking, what the level is and if it needs to be topped off. Also, when you build your system and have a sight you mark it with a sharpie where 5 gal, 10, gal 15, gal level are etc... so it makes it easier when...

    Parabolic or bat wing?

    Turns out it more like a 4x4 to 5x4 space depending if I move a shelf or not...but 4x4 for sure. I have one 400 which I was going to use and was hoping it would be enough to conserve power and reduce heat build up in the room. I've flowered with the way it's is now just hanging down | vert | but...

    Parabolic or bat wing?

    Hey guys, I'm needing to get a reflector soon for my 6x6 space with a 400 hps. I see parabolic and the simple bat wings for 50 to 80 dollars. How do the parabolic ones compare? Right now I'm just hanging the bulb down vertically but need to get a reflector. Thanks!

    Bulkheads ..do we need to add a little silicone?

    I 've got my 1/2 bulkheads in and have already drilled the hole and such; was about to install it and get things moving but figured I'd ask if we're suppose to add a little aquarium silicone to the rubber washer to help prevent leaks? I'm installing with the flange and gasket to the inside of...

    Dyna-Gro information needed.

    Well the reason I was going to mix 8oz of the magpro with 32oz of FP was to give the mix a little more P but not too much. I was going to use the FP over the bloom because I like the high N profile but it lacks some P. That and I want to add some sulfur so the bloom+magpro might be too much in...

    Dyna-Gro information needed.

    If Jacks pro hydro had all the elements that DG has I'd probably be using them. The're cheaper and they are dry nutrients which I'd prefer but they don't have all the elements that DG has. From what I've seen Jacks is solid and a lot of people use it very very successfully but I think a well...

    Dyna-Gro information needed.

    I'm thinking of going FP+magpro+protekt. I've read a lot of threads at various places and posts by uncleben and decided the whole nutrient industry is just misguiding the users for a sale. I understand wanting to make a buck but also being honest gets you loyalty which should in the end get you...

    Water level tube for buckets?

    Thanks, I'm aware that GH uses blue tubing which is why I'm looking for it but everybody wants me to buy like a 100ft roll; guess I can stop by the local hydro shop ...I hate going there though. Or, I was looking if somebody has used clear tubing like you can get at the hardware store and didn't...

    Hey guys, I'm trying DWC for the first time and have my bucket ready except for I'd like to incorporate a level tube so I can see at a glace the water/nutrients level without having to raise the lid all the time. I see that the GH farm kits use a blue tube and I've seen the blue tubes used on...

    Jacks (JR Peters) nutrients

    Can the citrus feed be used in hydroponics as it's not listed in the hydro section on their store. It says water soluble so what's the difference from this type of fertilizer than one listed for hydro as they both are ready for the plants to use without needing to be broken down..I think?

    Are they selling the new series Vero29 yet?

    I see on bridgelux website they are shipping the 130l/m version but from the data sheets I'm not able to find the exact part numbers. I was going to get some of the 3500k and 5000k. The 3500k at digikey has the "E" in it, does that mean enhanced. Anyways I figured I'd buy the newest version if...

    I can't even recall the last time I had a feeling of good fitness or well being

    I won't pretend to know how you exactly feel or what you go through because I don't and I don't personally believe anybody can. I do believe that as humans we can understand and feel similarities and some have stronger associations with said similarities to specific people. Your issues are no...

    Heatsinks for DIY LED lamps

    Hmm, ok...so if I understand you correctly you saying the serrated one would most like create too much turbulence or disruption in air flow at least for a passive setup? I really like Curchhaze setup and am thinking of going with one large one instead of two to keep it more simplistic but am...

    Hey churchaze, I posted in the heat sink thread has going on about needing something to passively cool my vero 18's. I have six of them and was going to divide them up into 3 each on a large 10" to 12" long sink from heat sinks usa but Supra said I should check out your build that used the 10"...

    Heatsinks for DIY LED lamps

    Thanks Supra, I appreciate your input and help. I saw his build, which is freaking sweet, and thought that would probably work for me. I've been looking for a metal plate of sorts, which is what it looks like to me, but could not find anything locally. I'll try to find out what 10" profile is...
