after brewing some of your tea for 24 hours (the tea came out very dark in color, is this normal) i added 1.5gal to a 12gal res. of just water. i then took the plants roots and tried my best to spray them off (but am afraid i did not do a good enough job) some of the roots were quite long nearly...

so i keep reading all these things about using .5 to 1 watt air pump to 1 gal of water. but this doesnt seem to make sense to me. wont the efficiency of the air pump vary by manufacturer? can anyone tell me how many gal/h or lpm pumps i should look for. i need air for four rubbermaid totes with...

oh and thanks so much for the help. good to know im not doomed. plus rep seriously thanks.

one more question when you say 1wt per gallon. you mean watt right?

my babies roots look like this but with more roots that are white and patches that are darker than the pic here. im using gh micro/bloom nutes. the roots appear to be growing as well as the plants themselves. without looking at the roots you would have no idea there was anything wrong. im going...

my res temps are usually around 70. what happens if there is not enough air? and what should i do during this res change to try and clean up those roots?

so this is like my third grow, second hydro grow. so this time i decided do two dwc in rubbermaid tubs, instead of the one tub. i did have quite a few light leaks into both tubs which is now corrected. problem is i have algae of root rot. im not sure how to tell them apart or if they are even...

i keep a reservoir of water in the room full of water. two advantages. one sitting out over night allows chlorine and other chemicals to evaporate, and two it allows the ph to settle out.

anyone got some good tips on how to successfully clone...i keep finding a lot of conflicting things about this ...also anything specific i need to look out for when making bubble cloner????

i took some cuttings this afternoon and put them in a homemade bubble cloner w/ a little bit of nutes... the clones are already falling over and look pretty weak... are they dead or will they perk up when the roots start to grow???????

so ive got an 18 gallon reservoir with a 3inch thick piece of Styrofoam (which has holes cut it in for net pots) ... i have 4 tubs like this, 2 in veg tent and 2 in flower tent...the plan is 3 weeks in each tub so as to have a harvest every 3 weeks... i started some ww from seed and just took...

and i dont know exactly what a multimeter is but i assume u would use it to test if the socket is getting power from the ballast...which i can assure u it is...my finger can tell u first hand that theres juice comin from that socket.....i think it pretty much has to be the connection or the bulb????

yeah i think im gonna go to the hydro store ... have them test the bulb... u think theyll test the ballast or whatever too??

i used a t shirt... also i unpluged and gave it a few minutes then checked the screws which were all tight.... i guess its the bulb???
