I have never used Advanced products but had a discussion with one of their tech guys as I have been curious about the line for some time. We were talking more Connoisseur vs Sensi and the suggestion was that too low of a dose contributes too little of the ph buffering chemistry to the solution...

That would suggest that the proper lighting strategy is to design for the driver to be ran at 100% while having a sufficient quantity of led's and proper circuit design that is "under driving" the diodes themselves with the driver going full blast. That was the point I was making. Brand XYZ...

To expand on the great info you have laid out here - I think some are confusing "dimmer" under-powered diodes with a properly designed light. A high end light will be under driving the diodes even when ran at 100% driver power output. Buying a cheap special and turning it down is just simply not...

Looks like possibly too much light. Color looks fine from what we can tell in the photos :peace:

When running bleach, do you ever check for Free Chlorine in the nutrient solution or just go by a calculated addition? ✌

What is the % of hypochlorous acid on the product you are using? Salt is a no go. I have a Hypochlorous generator and have tried it. You will fry your plants from the excess sodium. They are recommending Potassium Chloride be used for agricultural applications rather than Sodium Chloride (Table...

Couple of pointers from experience in my garden - This is assuming you haven't soaked the cuts in water overnight to keep them plump. For tray with plug - stick cuts as you described - place closed dome on tray for 3 days. After Day 3 start removing dome for 10 minutes or so and each day start...

How strong is the Hypochlorous product you are using? Have you have good results with it in the past?

Glad to see your still ok and growing @Sedan I'm sure you probably mentioned it but how close are you to destructive war activities? From the outside one wonders - how the heck do you even have power, what is that like on a day to day basis? ✌

Glad to still see you around as well bro! I think what really put the kibosh on the cob trend was the price. Those damn heat sinks were just too expensive. Obviously with bar lights becoming much more affordable they became the clear choice for indoor low ceiling grows just due to the superior...

While pretty much everything in this post had been my "belief" in prior years, I am starting to waver a bit. It's kinda like the "organic produces more nutritious green leafy vegetables" concept. I have not seen a true study that demonstrates this yet. If anyone else has please share. That is...

Interesting indeed! Neither of the technologies that were the topic of the thread could be seen as a 1st choice today. To rub a little salt, DE HPS is much more prominent than COB's still going into 2025. After many product trials and taking power consumption etc into account my $ went into...

Does the API Eco Fix have an ingredient label? Wondering if it contains enzymes? Nice grow you have going here! ✌

Just realized this thread is 2 years old :wall: I'm sure op has long since moved on

New Thread coming soon brother! ✌

Kinda circling back on this. I have recently started using Aptus products in a variation of the "Clean Program" in hydro. Can I ask why on earth you would want to use such a mix matched system to begin with? I am certain you are not lacking in calcium in solution, more like locking things out. I...

Unless your tap water is super hard or high ppm dirty it probably isn't the issue. I would blame the organics. After playing with dirt for a few years I am back to where my heart is - full hydro. I use filtered tap water in my grow (less than 100ppm). Buckets on the left don't even have air...

I purchased a hypochlorous acid generator. The rates the company that makes them suggests be used to hit a target of free chlorine about killed the plants. I believe it generates 400ppm solution. I need to do some more research / experimenting I also tried System Clean by Aptus at 2ml per gal...

At what rate are you adding hypochlorous acid and have you noticed any ill effect on the plants?

Its a header for the main grow channels to drain into...
