    yield?

    Canna is a good product, I don't use it cause its too expensive and I have been using GH for some time now and only reason I steer away from GH is because the local shop gives me new stuff to trial for feedback. Don't over think it, its not really that hard to keep things on a very simple...

    yield?

    can't we just let the past post be past post and move on, seriously does hijacking nicksol86's forum post on his first grow really prove something or actually make people really care....I will not visit some past arguement or disagreement nicksol, excellent choice on the 600s mate, I think you...

    First Grow, Closet SOG in DWC. Need My Specs Checked

    your 2 story system will possibly be a major headache, I used to think that I will just work around my timers so I don't interrupt the flower rooms darkness But in reality that has never happened and thus I wasn't able to attend to the clones or vegging plants. When I did a closet grow, I had a...

    First Grow, Closet SOG in DWC. Need My Specs Checked

    mate I think you have over complicated things...I'm not saying you will not succeed, but at end of the day you want to keep it simple.

    yield?

    See this is prime example of where you can't just take one persons word on a grow, everyone has their tricks and techniques, they have their own knowledge that has been passed on by others or learned from trial and error. I'm not here to argue with silusbotwin or tell him he is wrong about the...

    Canna butter

    well I don't know mate I leave all my technical mumbo jumbo into growing the damn plant and trying to get a "spot-on" perfect grow, and when harvesting that near perfectly grown plant I have lots of trim that I can make up a whole shop front of tincture, butters, balms, lotions, oils, cough...

    First ever grow journal

    Did my routine maintenance and some more fine tune details to this grow operation. I am starting to slowly LST the uppers at this stage, I hate how she looks during these stages as the plant just looks miserable and ugly Here is a snap of the flower area for what will soon be 1 of the 2...

    yield?

    I'm not going to endorse anyone's products as one being the better than the other, but I will say that I use General Hydroponics CaliMagic and I am very happy with it, I have it dialed in to know exactly how much to add to give me my 300ppm.

    yield?

    Definately use CalMag if your using RO....even if your not feeding and just watering, the water will still need Calmag with RO....RO water has all the hardness stripped out, hardness = calcium carbonate, plus Coco tends to "draw out" the calcium from the solution so the roots don't get what they...

    yield?

    Coco is my second favorite grow media and no it is not strickly for organic nutes, you can get coco specific nutes which typically have a higher calcium and magnesium than your standard hydro base nutes, but then you can use your standard hydro base nutes and have to just supp-in some calmag to...

    yield?

    sorry thought of something else I should have mentioned earlier.......your battle between 600 watt and 1000 watt, not sure if you are aware that these ballast actually run more watts then what the label says, roughly about 10% more. So a 1000 watt runs about 1100 watts, and a 600 runs about 660...

    Do I need an RO filter?

    If I may suggest something else, why not just visit a good aquarium shop. I don't know about over where your from but here there is a 3 aquarium shops local to me that sell RO water at $4 per 25L, I bring in my own 25L cubes and fill them up and on my way. The reason I say this is because I have...

    Do I need an RO filter?

    Agree, I was just throwing a cheaper budget option on the table....the 50gpd is a pain in the arse

    yield?

    no body has said that 1000 watts don't bring on bigger yields, but to get the benefits from a 1000 watt set up you will need to start looking into CO2 dosing. What you read about all the light wattages is that the 600 watt tends to be the most efficient, best Lumens of light per watt (there is...

    Do I need an RO filter?

    Not sure where your located, but on Australian eBay I found this RO unit that is made for Caravans, over here costing about $98aud....they are only rated at about 50 gallon per day, which is a bit slow compared to the under bench models

    Canna butter

    my process: Freeze trim - makes trichs brittle and fall off easier Grind trim - better surface area and makes frozen trichs fall off easier Add to butter with small amount of water in a slow cooker/crock pot - water keeps the butter from browning or potentially burning, top of with 1/4 cup water...

    Do I need an RO filter?

    I agree for the most part, but I have seen some videos of people reporting that their tap water is already creeping up to 500ppm, and in a soil application such as plants in nature the residual products in tap or well water are able to disapate via the loamy soil. But on the other hand in most...

    Canna butter

    With butter I never decarb....reason is: well you toss your pre-frozen ground up trim into the cooking vessel, you add your butter and then some water. Now you wait, wait, wait, wait some more, then wait again and again, until you have gone at least 10+ hours (I usually go for the 15-16 hour...

    Do I need an RO filter?

    FiddlersGreen you all good with that filter, some have a De-ionizer as well, which is a bit overkill...though I use de-ionizer on my marine aquarium. But you are correct, carbon does polish chlorine from water and is usually the first stage of the whole RO unit
