    Waterfarm Mods & Tips

    I see... Very cool! Thanks man! Is that the Control Wizard Tri monitor there? I have the same one. My PH electrode went bad in it. It wasn't very old at all. I called them up and they will replace it as long as I ship it. 6 month warranty on the probe. Just fyi. I like the set up! Does...

    Waterfarm Mods & Tips

    Interesting..... I'm trying to gather what you did with the T connector. Gotta a pic, or can you explain further? Mine still spitting and gurgling. It does circulate, but a smoother solution would be great! I'm from 8 wf down to 4 due to being a bonehead and using soil nutes bongsmilie...

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    Right on! I switched to a 600 watt hps on the plant. It is flowering, but still not drinking like it used to. I fed it superthrive after flushing the water. I'll get some pics up soon. It is surviving, but I question the harvest. We'll see though. It still has 4-5 weeks. I'll keep you...

    Waterfarm Mods & Tips

    I actually bought the upgrade kit. I was not pleased with the air pump that came with it. It is really noisy and low power. So I use it for one of my airstones. I use a whisper 30-60. You could go bigger. I have though about it. I have a slight uneven floor. You would never notice, but...

    Humboldt Organic Nutes for Hydro?? Anyone used before??

    Well I'll answer the question for anyone thinking about using these nutes for hydro.....DON'T DO IT. This is my opinion, but I have had PPM reading all over the chart. My experience is that I should keep these organics for soil. Going to switch to something different.

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    I will be trying it out to see. Just got to round a few things up. Also decided I'm going to switch nutes and the ones I have now would be great for soil. Just not great for hydro. I don't know that your comparison is totally accurate though. If I plant the same Kush and Blueberry Seeds in...

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    I would sure be cool with the simplicity of soil, although the different aspects of hydro are pretty interesting. Trying to control and enhance the nutrients. I am going to insulate each waterfarm with duct wrap. I seen it in the waterfarm forum. Makes sense. Although in the end, it sure...

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    Sorry to hear about your grow! I worry about root rot and already notice my water temp around 70 with no HID lights in there yet. Did you do another hydro grow after the root rot? Did you make any changes? Better outcome? Thanks bro :bigjoint:

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    I am surely guilty of running before walking. Just my style to go big. I have been thinking about soil for the simplicity like you stated. I have room and could do a comparison grow since I'm just learning on hydro. Honestly though bro, its all the falling down that keeps me getting up a...

    Plant went without water for 2 days... can it be saved???

    So it will have been 2 weeks on Monday since this plant went without water. It drinks very little. I have gone through one gallon since. I have it under a 400 watt HPS and am wondering if I'm just wasting electricity, or if it is worth keeping. Any opinions? It is flowering, more so in some...

    Newbie Hydro Grow.. Working on the Green thumb..Help LOL Blueberry & Kush

    I was thinking of the 600's for when things got a little more stable. I then started wondering if I had made a mistake. Should I have gone with 2 core Ballast 1000 Watts, or 2 digital 600w? Now I'm thinking of just adding a 1000 watt to the 2 600's and playing with that. Is the old cliche...

    Newbie Hydro Grow.. Working on the Green thumb..Help LOL Blueberry & Kush

    So today I lowered the lights down to a couple inches above the seedlings. I also adjusted the drip timer to not run for 5 hours. It is my hope that I can dry things out a bit and cause them roots to grow. I think VV's logic is good and it makes sense. I have also been advised that with the...

    With the plants as small as they are, do you think I should underwater them right now to create root growth. If you look at my journal, they are little guys and have suffered some issues from light being too far away from light in their early stages. Have you used a waterfarm before, or a drip...

    Newbie Hydro Grow.. Working on the Green thumb..Help LOL Blueberry & Kush

    So my first question is water cycle. I have read and heard different opinions on this. Some say 1 hour on, 1 off. Some say all the time, some say 4 15 min cycles per light cycle. I'm now doing a 1 hour on and 3 hour off. I also wonder if the young age of the seedlings makes a difference...

    Newbie Hydro Grow.. Working on the Green thumb..Help LOL Blueberry & Kush

    You and me both buddy! Thanks for stopping by. The 4 Blueberry are feminized seeds. So we'll see. The Kush, however, is not. I just got some other seeds in the mail, I have no idea what they are, I didn't order them. But point being if 1st I don't succeed I'll just keep trying. :peace:

    So far, here is what has happen. I germinated the seeds, no prob. Put them in a germination station and let them go to work. They did, but my florescent light was too high. They stretched. I was out of town for a long weekend and all hell broke loose. My starter plant in the Aero garden...
