I suggest looking on their website to see what they suggest.
I use AN and start at 100ppm and have never went over 600ppm yet even in deep flower.
The best thing to do is balance the ppm so the plants eat water and food at the same rate, this will help stabilize you Ph.
I put them in the tub with bleach, let soak, pick the crap out of them. Then I drain the bleach water and get in the shower and kick them around with my feet while rinsing them. Then I use a strainer to give them one last rinse and put them back into buckets for use.

here is a link to the sprayers if you choose to go that route. The red ones are the good ones and this was the cheapest place I found.
Last time I had to pull one through the hole the wrong way since it was attached by the roots to another plant. They survived and are flowering right now, but was not fun.
1. Yes they work good, my only problem with them is roots tangle. All good if you don't plan to move the plants

Most new systems use this. It is just a line...
First would like to say i dont do dirt. Pics help tons.
Doubt you have to transplant it again already. The root prob just took the route with lest resistance and it led to the hole. I dont think the roots would of filled that already. Never hurts to get a bigger pot tho just makes bigger plant.
You do not have to use rockwool and I would not.
You can just use the hydroton rocks if ya want.
Or you can use other things like rapid rooters or pellets or what ever else ya want.
Ok sounds like I need the check valve since my controller only has two float switches. Plus my res is outside the room and control bucket is inside. Anyone point me in the direction of a good 3/4 inch check value to use?
Much love

Well started to feed the babies I put into flower.
The other 4 are three weeks into flower and basically have grown like crazy. They are now taking up like the whole 1000w footprint! Tons of nice bud sites, pretty excited!
It has been just over 1 month since I cloned the ones in veg right now...
Got my DIY ebb flow up and going now. Only problem is I cant get the drain pump to stay off with out tilting the control bucket. I mean it works but wtf. I only bought the one part and it is rather stupid (CAP monster controller). Next time I am build my own controller.
pick it up every couple days until it tangles in itself.
No need for air stone really as long as most of them are out of the water, at least 1/3 of the roots need to get oxygen. Air stone def will not hurt tho.
I like to yellow off my plants and ripen my buds. I might not get the biggest yields since I feed light overall and def flush with no nutes for at least 1 week if not 2. I see no point in jamming more food in the water than the plant is gonna use. I doubt it is gonna use more just because its...
ya dude it does fuck you up. lol. I also made 2 sticks of butter with a huge amount of leaves/stems then made cookies and one cookie really packed a punched! And I smoke a lot.
agree plants hit the "stretching phase" in the first 2-3 weeks of flower and at least doubles in size. And agree foxtails are a trait of some strains like my king kush, but at the end they all hit a "swelling phase".
Pre flower is when the plant is in veg state and shows it sex saying "I am ready to flower". Once you see more than two pistils she is in flower and starts to grow buds. So anyways you plant looks good esp if you live south.
