Adds back minerals? Never seen an RO filter do that? How bad is your tap. I predict that the RO filter would not improve your grow. JD

Runoff with coco is not really a watering issue...more a requirement. Your idea of feeding with no runoff is part of your problem. Plus I bet you are feeding too high and locking things out. Flush and lower nutes is what I would do. And is that 1400 ppm because I do know your EC isn't that...

Hey Cabbage, Let me throw out another thought. Ph meters do poorly measuring water with no minerals in it. All ph meters work by measuring EC...and then internally electronically convert that to a ph number. RO water and distilled water should be very close to 7...but you may not get a good...

I totally know what you mean...I spent almost 3 months in a wheelchair...trying to run my life while dealing with many obstacles. It certainly taught me patience. Made me a better grower. Hang in there man. JD

But Dwayne...he's not bending...he's "guiding" the branches. Apparently we are all too dumb to understand the difference. JD :wall:

That would be silica...two different things...I know, call me picky. At the end of the grow...I know the lights will stay in the same position...so I run bonsai wire from the reflector down to tie up sagging branches. Works pretty good and less hassle then a trellis. JD

Thanks Just Be... sounds like you know a lot about biomechanics. So do I, so no worries there. I was in a bad car wreck 25 years ago and I lost my right foot. Wearing a prosthesis causes me to shift weight to the good side. Not something I think about, it just happens. Very common for...

Thanks CountryFried, I read a little...and truthfully I'm leary. It somehow can interact with certain metals in your body and it;s wildly expensive too. I don't feel it's productive to use drugs for all meditations. Truly, in this, the old fashion way is better. But sometimes a little burst...

Hi RUI people. A brother goes down. Sad day. For those curious types...I happen to be familiar with alpha 1 antitripsin deficiency...the inherited condition that he had. Alpha 1 antitripsin is an enzyme that repairs damage in the lungs. So a person who has it...but doesn't know it...can...

Just wait till you're 70 dude...I'll be laughing in my grave. 8-) JD

Hey stiffballs, My comment about 1/2 the nutes was not specific instructions I wanted you to follow...just that the plant would probably still grow fine. I was making a point. Just drop it a bit and you'll be ok. JD

Squash beat me to that one.....bending is part of lst. I've done manifold training (mainlining) It's combination of topping and gentle bending to train plant to grow ultimately 4 main colas or even 8 or 16 depending om how many times you top. JD

Damn Clumpy...that's a pretty insignificant tip burn. Being picky...lol You could back off though...when you're that close to the line...even a little accident could kill them. They would probably grow fine at half what you're giving...but that's the amazing characteristics of...

Nice trichome array too...

Dirt, soil-less or coco? Makes a difference. I made a very simple watering system for my plants using an 8 plant divider. You can get bigger I think. But most guys with huge gardens plumb rigid pvc lines with various standpipes located to reach all plants. Guy named DJM over on ICG set up a...

I use cheap powdered nutes (Maxibloom) but I add a full dose of calmag in with it. Never have Ca++ or Mg++ issues. Yes coco. JD

Well lots of guys grow with little HLG lights...running proper diodes and it's not blurple. Hundreds of guys here to advise you...but not me sorry. They are reasonable at just over $100 Shoot for 30+ watts per square foot of your space for flowering. JD

hj, You can grow with so many types of lights and sometimes the space will dictate what light would do best...so any recommendation would be futile without knowing more. Want to stay with leds? JD

Or you could immediately dry in oven...decarb and QWET and then let it sit...leaving alcohol to evap for the month. Then you'll have some rdo waiting for you, That's what I would do. JD

Thanks...The nutrient thing...I think most respected manufacturers try and balance the urea with other non-urea N sources as a means of buffering ph. The problem comes when you overload the soil with it. The newb desire to do more...make it grow faster. Pour more on. And I can sure see why...
