You don't need to ph when you foiler feed. In fact, you want it way out of wack because then its rough on molds. ph is a root zone feeding thing only.

what are those net pots/inserts that you have in those 5gal. buckets?

So you want to grow in soil and hydro all in one? sounds like fun... NOT

Now that i think about it, it would have to $35.00 That mix would give me one gallon of A and one gallon of B. And that should be enough to do quite a few 50 gal. res changes

when it gives you the cost, in my case i was doing 1 gallon of concentrate 300:1, the cost was 35 is that cents or dollars?

i also do flood and drain buckets. Do you ever have a problem with roots plugging up the fill and drain hose?

well the run-off in my system goes back into the res. Flood and drain. And believe me i keep a sharp eye on what its doing. EC, PPM, TDS, call what you want. Looking for any changes and tweaking accordingly.

i just checked, and my blue lab guardian only reads to the 10th on ec 1.1 1.2 1.3

ok, thats fine, i just use it for referance. and to detect any changes my res might be doing

im in flood and drain, and my blue lab monitor in my res. dont bounce around, it will stay put, or slowly drift in one direction. as soon as it moves i know what direction its going. if it s moving up...too strong, if its moving down...too weak or sometimes i'll call that close enough.

my ppm monitor changes in increments of 10, ie 500, 510, 520. So 500 ppm .5 scale is 1ec what ec is 510?

I cant get over 1.2ec max. But i use ppm .5 scale for two reasons. One, my nutrient company (gh) feed chart is in ppm .5 scale and Two i can notice smaller changes in my ppm.

I don't know if putting that stuff in your res. Is safe for you. But sns has a pesticide you are supposed to put in the res to get rid of certain bugs.

is anyone making a pat A & B concentrate with Jacks321. It would already be dissolved and ready to mix. Just not sure what ratio to go with,10X 20X 50X etc. what would be the best? thanks

what ppm scale does hydrobuddy use 500 or 700?

ya i know what you mean there, red, i really haven't had any leaks or many mishaps, but i did almost change from buckets to a table because i couldn't stop the roots from plugging my fill n drain hole. i would always get one, two or more plants turn yellow pretty bad three weeks or so before...

Maxi-gro has 6% cal. 2% mag. Maxi-bloom has 5% cal. 3.5% mag. will that be enough using ro water?

I'm using GH maxi-bloom and it says that its real close to the lucas formula @ 7grams/gal. what exactly are they referring to, the npk ratio? or to actually use 7grams/gal. In ro water 7grams/gal is around 2ec, 1000ppm .5 scale. I don't go over 700ppm the entire grow. If i mix weaker is it...

calmag will make your ppm go up big time
