    Can anyone help me diagnose my problem from these pics???......

    That's not an npk ratio. It's different and it's can be helpful. If the ratio is off, you can get leaves like you have. So for the drop in ppm (measured before and after replenishing) means you can feed a little more, a rise in ppm means cut back. This is due to the ratio of water being used by...

    Emergency Move! Cooling/Venting tips in weird room?

    I think you are gonna have to run ac in the space. But if you have to do it with fans, I'd make a raised floor/air plenum of 3" with lot's of clustered vent holes in strategic locations. The opening of this raised floor / air plenum is below the new door for this space. At the top of this door...

    Your thoughts on Ram Dass and WHY LSD is illegal

    Everything. Because it will change how I feel. In any moment in time, the conversation I have with myself or the words coming out of my mouth make me feel a certain way. It also works the other way, in any moment in time I can change how I feel by the conversation I choose to have with myself...

    adjusting ppm's for tap water

    So for N,P,K,C,Mg,S The ratios would be 3 - 1 - 2 - 2.4 - 1.2 - 1.5 ? Whereas, Calcium to Nitrogen is .8 to 1 Magnesium to Calcium is 1 to 2 Sulfur at 1-2% of total solution

    Lost In A Sea Of Nutrients? Advanced Nutrients, Canna etc.

    Yeah, I'm gonna give it Dyna a go again but none of the grow shops carry it! The Hydroplex was interesting to me in that it's claiming to deliver a myriad of amino acids that the plant can metabolize. Here's a link that describes the Casparian strip within the root and it's role in...

    Your thoughts on Ram Dass and WHY LSD is illegal

    I had a moment when I picked up Ram Dass 'Be Here Now'. The format was unusual for the day and really planted a seed. It was quite fascinating to look at and felt to work on many levels. You gotta admire someone who creates their life actively, with intentional desire. As for LSD being...

    Lost In A Sea Of Nutrients? Advanced Nutrients, Canna etc.

    Thanks homebrewer, I been reading up on some of your grows and they are great threads of solid info, props. I'm working to understand ratio's better perhaps an example would help. I'm in a recirculating hydro set-up with a 15gal rez using AACT's brewed at 48hrs @ 72 degs. My tap is at pH 7...

    Why do I have to keep adding pH down during flower?

    Are you saying that the plant causes a pH rise in the root zone is for the purpose of making more of the elements that it needs accessible? In other words, if you were in a recirculating hydro setup, you would allow the pH to drift within a range. Have you personally tested if this is more...

    Need to slightly reduce fan noise.

    They are called variac's. In principle, it's the same thing that a model train set uses. You want to vary the voltage to control motor speed not resist the current (which would cause motor hum).

    Any good stash spots?

    If you end up burying it, don't use metal. I'm not sure if metal detectors can detect that silver stripe on the cash though. If I was gonna bury it, I do something like a water cistern or a septic system with a fake top filled with water or poo. But honestly, the best stash places are one's that...

    any plumbers in the house?

    PEX is great stuff. You can go two routes with it. One is if the local HD has PEX (other than for radiant floor). In my area they've gone with a type of fitting that is a push fit compression. Very pricey. The other route is through a plumbing supply house which has Wirsbo which is a brand of...

    Lost In A Sea Of Nutrients? Advanced Nutrients, Canna etc.

    With the base nutes being 200 ppm per ml per gal of water, can I use the ratio's of NPK to determine the ppm's of each? If not, how would I? Isn't the 20-20-20 just 20x the concentration of 1-1-1?

    COMMENT ON THIS :D --DYI Daily Journal checklist

    Looks cool, but I think having a spreadsheet is better. You want to pinpoint trends and observe cause and effect. Having data that you can scan over a time period to compare and contrast is helpful. To answer your question, having a record of how much pH down and up per res size is useful.
