    Uv sterilization

    I have had water issues since I moved my setup to its final destination which is on a well. I have a big blue triple filter system installed after the pressure tank. First a 50 micron, charcoal, and lastly a carbon block filter @ .5 micron. Then through a water softener, then to the house. The...

    Uv sterilization

    Has anyone tried using a fish tank uv filter to kill any bacteria in a recirculating reservoir? Seems a much better option than H202 or bleach. You can get a good one for $100 that is good for 125 gallons? You could run it non stop and not worry about any funk?

    PH, EC, and TDS meters

    I'm switching to Jack's and I saw your post about a mixing plate a 1/2 gallon jars. $35 for a plate and $10 for a 6pk of jars, was a no brainer, thanks for the tip.

    Recharge

    So does that mean you run sterile, h202 or chlorine? No hydrogaurd or Southern AG? S. Ag is labeled as organic? Most hydro people use these products. Or is that different somehow?

    Recharge

    What do you think about adding a soluble fulvic acid to a recirculating system?

    Recharge

    Recharge works pretty well in soil. But does foam up and slime reservoir walls.

    Do I water my plants before harvest please? Coco

    I like your thought process. Try half and half. Water half your plants and chop em 4-6 later, and leave the others almost start to wilt then chop em. Keep a journal and compare how long it took each set to dry, then see how they smoke and give us your results and opinion. Nothing beats...

    PH, EC, and TDS meters

    I also got the kit on Amazon. Little over priced but pretty nice stuff. There wall mount units look nice but way to pricey for a hobby guy like myself

    Beneficial Additives in Hydroponics! *A MUST READ*

    I just stumbled across this post while researching some other stuff. I wanted to give it a bump, last post was 2015, but this is awesome information backed up with science and links. Best post on beneficial bacteria and fungi I have ever read.

    4x4 tent, 600w HPS, 1.5 month veg, autopots in scrog. How many plants?

    Used to do 6 at a time in dirt fiber pots in 2 tents 1m x 1m,(5x5). 1 veg and 1 flower. It worked but it was packed. I would suggest no more than 4 full size plants in a 4x4 tent. Unless you switch up and do small 1 gallon autos or hempy buckets.

    PH, EC, and TDS meters

    That's pretty cheap for a wall unit. How long have you had it? How durable and how often do you have to replace a probe? $?

    PH, EC, and TDS meters

    I'm curious what most people growing in hydro use most. Personally I have used ph and tds. Most meters I used gave "close numbers" but never seemed to be totally consistent. Lots people preach quality. Finally broke down and bought the bluelab kit. PH and EC meters. Holy shit, what a...

    Water chiller??

    I use my well water as a chiller. I ran a 1/4" refrigerator waterline into my res, a 55 gallon barrel. Looped up about 20 ft with zip ties, then feed out to a drain. I need to control it with a small valve. If leave it wide open it will drop the temp to 52°F. You would not need a very large coil...

    Jack's 10-30-20

    I used it when I was starting out. I Was in dirt and I used it as a bloom booster in flower, seemed to work well. I wouldn't think just the 10 30 20 by itself would be good for all of flower. As stated, too much "P". I have been looking at Mel Frank's and Ed Rosenthal's numbers. They recommend...
