Voodoo Juice is outrageously priced for every day use. For a DWC it works awesome, as it prevents and destroys pythium if present. I don't have labels in front of me, but their bacillus strain(s) in there are mean little suckers. Much more so than any plant success products, like Great White...

Don't spray Mighty Wash late in the game. It's ok on something you can wash off, not on something you smoke. Explain why 99.8% water is pink, 650ppm, has an oil layer, and smells like pyrethrin. Not even Tijuana tap water looks like that. Actually, if just got removed from the market...

Add your silica first, then mix. Then get on with your bases.

Turboklones are fine and just as good quality as an EZ Clone. I've sold a few pallets of them over the years, and never had any drain leak issues. The only issues have been bowed/warped plastic. Just clean that sucker really good between uses and run it with a 10% bleach solution, and then...

General rule of thumb even for drain to waste applications is a week. A res in that situation will benefit from aeration, but only a little. Too much air is bad for a standing res. Aerating for 15 minutes every 4 hours is sufficient. There's no point of a recirculating pump; if you have...

Bottle fed stuff is cool, but for a short term plant like an auto flower you could easily let an rich organic soil "cook" for a month before using. Some will get really hot the first week. There is a plethora of raw stuff to mess with and really be organic. I love worm poop, greensand, soft...

Autos do not have a normal photoperiod response. The respond to the amount of light - Photon *Hours received. A true autoflower will just grow slower at 12/12. I believe the 18/6 veg style cycle is optimum and come from the school were plants need a tiny bit of sleep. In theory, a 12/12 will...

Not all cocos need rinsing. Cocogro does not; even their bricks are safe. We have tested a lot of Coco products. The top contenders are B'Cuzz, Nutrifield, and Canna. Nutrifield drys quicker, so it can be fed more often and give you a little more yield. B'Cuzz and Canna are very similar...

It's all opinion. With the gel, Rootech and Clonex are the gold standards. New formulations of Clonex are certified for food crops. Rootech is great, but has very inconsistent fill levels. Dyna-Gro Gel also works great. Some people love Olivia's, but it often is moldy when opened. With...

Remember though, silica products need to be diluted first to avoid chemical reactions and unwanted precipitation. That's why prosilicates and silicic acids are always added to your res first, mixed well, and then other stuff is added. So what's cheaper? You shouldn't need much pH up ever...

While Canna is relatively weak, it does burn babies easily. For most veg, you can rock 8ml A and 8ml B, with 12-15ml Rhizotonic. Use the Cannazym if you have it, your roots will like it and you'll eliminate the food supply for fungus gnats. A lot of Canna users require Cal-mag into flower...

There are two trains of thought - one is plants need fresh air, the other is that proper temp, humidity, and CO2 levels is fresh air to a plant. You can get better performance with adding CO2 to the 1200-1500ppm range, with ambient usually around 450ppm. But - you have to be able to operate a...

GH, Canna, and House & Garden are the three big dogs when it comes to performance in a non-organic grow. Heavy 16, Cutting Edge Solutions, Botanicare, and Advanced Nutrients are runners up. For a DWC just avoid organics. Use the Canna Aqua line if price is no object - Use the flora series or...

In a small area where the gardener does not plan on expansion, CO2 bags like Exhale (there are a few other brands out there) can be more cost effective. About $200 worth in a 5x10x8' would get you in the 1200-1300ppm range for six months straight. For larger rooms compressed gas and a...

The number one issue with Ebb n Gros is standing water and root pathogens. The guys that make it, CAP, have addressed this in multiple revisions. Those most recent revision has the bottom raised 3/4", with the inlet/outlet hole recessed down, and the whole thing at a 2-3 degree slope. This...

600w ain't enough for that area. Stuff will grow fine, but will be a lot smaller than using a 1000W. Even a 1000w is only 40Watts/sq. foot, which isn't that dense. A 1000W system with a dedicated 6" blower for the light/intake system and your tent should only run 5 degrees hotter than the intake...

The rule of thumb is to have approximately 10% runoff. I'd suggest to water until you see a little water begin to trickle out the bottom, at that point it will keep flowing a little. You can use molasses everytime you feed. Using that much though is no bueno. That is an enormous amount of...

Using Terra with Coco isn't wrong, but you definately need to add a Calcium-Magnesium product with it. Ca-Mg is mostly left out of the Terra formula to facilitate a one part nutrient that doesn't precipitate in the bottle. I've never tried your combo, but I know the Terra requires cal-mag in...

The FoxFarm lineup works fine. They have two differnt feed charts, with the newer having their Bushdoctor products in it and is black instead of purple. Common potting soils like Roots Organic, Ocean Forest, and Happy Frog have enough food for at least a couple of weeks for most strains. This...
