Dont even know why this is a topic. My comment probably wont even get read but anyone that thinks any amount of cfls can beat any HID lighting you are out of your mind.

Dont ever use aliuminum foil in any grow room. Increases temp and reflects almost no light. use flat white paint

Plant look really nice man. i actually am growing the same exact strain under a 400watt. Shes about 3 weeks into flowering and im very excited about whats to come. Im also using GH 3 part and have it in a 5 gal bucket with a 5in air stone. Hows the smoke after cureing? Also, can you see any...

Well if this is your very first hydro grow first thing i suggest is use 1/4 strength nutrients so you dont burn your plants!!!! Ive started several people on DWC system and the biggest mistake made is using to much nutrients. It is almost impossible to under feed in a hydro setup but it is...

Look like the buds are starting to mold on the last 3 pics. If possible i would try to move the grow indoors and buy a HID or LED light. They can be bought on amazon for under $150. Growing outdoors means that mold could be casued by a million things. Excessive humidty, pests, fungi, just to...

First thing you need to do is get rid of ALLLL that tin foil lining the buckets and walls. Tin foil not only increases heat but it does almost nothing to reflect light around the plants. Many people think because of its look that it will reflect alot of light, your better off painting the...

Like superstoner said there is still a veg phase, also a pre flower and flower stage. Treat an auto strain like you would any other plant, two weeks of just phd water for seedlings, then feed at 1/4 strenght for the first feed and increase until you see the plant start pre flowering then add...

Thanks for the advice guys? Im not to fond of fox farms products either but these where given to me for free so i figured i would use them. Im going to get some Liquid Kool Bloom and call it a day. Any other additives i can use to enhance the flowers on my plant that are ok to use with GH 3 part?

I have a plant thats producing some pretty nice flowers, problem is i just ran out of my three part flowering nutes ( Cha Ching, Beastie Bloom, Open Sesame). All i have is my three part GH grow micro and bloom. If i switch to the three part in the middle of flowering will i see the same results...

Thanks for all the info guys, really appreciated!!! Im leaning towards Final Phase for my first flush but well see what the guys at the hydro store have to say. Ill keep yas posted.

Im about to harvest my first plants grown in hydro but im not to sure when to start the flush and what i should use to flush it? Ive heard in hydro you only need to flush for a few days but that doesnt sound right. Do i use straight water or should i use a flushing product like final phase...

My plants just started the bloom phase and i want to know which brand is preferred for DWC/ NFT? I just stopped using fox farm becuse i didnt know it was organic and it was giving me problems. Which is the best base nutrients and additives for thr flowering phase?

Ok so here it is folks. I currently have a 400 watt Apollo HID grow light which is more then enough for my 6 plants in my closet. Ive been reading about LED lights and since heat is a battle im losing i was looking to make the switch. My question is what watt, colorband, blah blah blah etc...

I found that in hydro the roots tend to bunch up after they have cleared the net pots. A bigger bucket doesn't mean bigger plants, like the above person said, easier to control ph and temp but roots in a hydro system dont need that much room to spread. A 5 galon bucket will do just fine.

I think DWC is your best bet to go ifyou want big yields. I run a combined version of NFT sytem and a DWC system. I have a 20 gal tote filled halfway with water and my nutes. I then run a drip line (cpvc) to all 6 of my netpots. I let this drip line run all day every day and i usually see at...

I found hydroton to be the best stuff to use for hydro, especially when using net pots. I have a few plants in rockwool though and i am having good results. Best way to do it is just like you mentioned, drill a few holes in a 5 gal bucket and rinse it for about 5 mins. I normally add a few...

First things first. Clearly those plants are 100 percent indica ( short lengths between nodes, short fat leaves, etc) so leaves like those are normal to an extent. The actual "big leafs" you are referring to are the water leads and that is there only function. To keep plants trimmed and neat...

I have had the same problems with my set-up. Every morning when i check my ph it is always about 4.0 and i cant seem to get it to stay at my desired 5.7- The only thing i can think of doing is switching to the Advanced Nutes PH Perfect Line and hope for the best. I have found that PH level...

Well guys after reading all you post and taking bits of advice from different people i decided to plant the clones in soil with the cloning gel and got a container with a lid to keep the humidity. WELLLLLLL that worked like a fucking charm because all of my plants rooted like CRAZY after just a...

Im using a DWC with a drip system i have running 24/7. This worked AMAZING when i used GH 2 part nute system but when i switched to Fox Farm i burn more plants then not. Im using a 400 watt Apollo MH Grow Light. 75% power.
