    What does "first true leaves" mean?

    So, I should go ahead and start feeding a low dosage of nutes now? I'm seeing some drooping of the leaves. This would be the humidity, right? I'm working on a drain for the dehumidifier, then I should be able to keep around 35-40%. Do you think the lack of nutrients may be causing the...

    What does "first true leaves" mean?

    I've read that you are to begin feeding nutrients when the plant has it's "first true set of leaves". Does this mean the first 2 jagged leaves (that show up right after the cotyledons) or the first leaves with their own stems? I'm seeing yellowing edges and brown spots on the leaves of my...

    Worried about clogging w/out cocoliners

    As in an inline water filter? My pump sits directly in the reservoir, no lines to install a filter onto. It is a GH RainForest. I guess i could install a filter inline with the chiller, but what type of filter? I wouldn't want to filter out nutrients. Whatever the cost, if it means not having a...

    Worried about clogging w/out cocoliners

    I've seen people using aero/hybrid systems without the cocoliners (just drop the hydro-ton in the pot), but I'm worried that any dust that doesn't get rinsed initially will clog the mister heads. Has anybody ever experienced a problem with this? Or any comments to set me on the right path?

    Aeroponic sump ventilation

    I was wondering the same thing. I was thinking about just using an aerator at the end of the out tube from the chiller and letting it splash back into the reservoir. I'm not positive that this will be effective, though...

    Inline UV water filter?

    Thank you all for your replies. My biggest fear is that I keep reading about root rot being a problem with this type of system. I need this system to be as maintenance free as possible and reducing res changes will help immensely. The chiller is oversized, and I think it would be ok. I'd just...

    B-52 Seeds=SLOW? 4/10 in 6 days!?!?

    Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but I'm in day 6 of germinating Nirvana's B-52. Of 10 seeds, 4 have popped, 2 on day 4 and 2 on day 5, none today. I'm using the damp paper towel in a bag method on a heating mat (~82-85F). I don't recall ever having seeds take so long... (it's been a while since...

    Inline UV water filter?

    I'm contemplating adding an inline ultraviolet filter to my Aero-hybrid setup. Probably placed right before or after the chiller. Thought: prevent any possibility of contaminate buildup in the res, therefor prolonging necessity for res changes. (BTW, RO-DI water being used w/ GH liq). 2nd...

    Blue-Only LED's for Seedlings?

    I'm thinking about building a small germination box incorporating blue-only LED lights. Will all blue lights be OK for this, or do I need to mix some red into the spectrum as well?
