    Slime in my Buckets.

    Welcome to hell bro. Lol Dwc can be super simple or your worst nightmare. Guess which one you got? Lol Your going To have a serious battle with that slime. Heisenberg tea cures it, sure. But the second you slip up and relax and miss a day of being all over it it will come back. And keep...

    Help! Are these plants too far gone?

    If you want to save then put them in dirt or soilless mix. Dwc can be tricky. It can be the easiest or the worst. I grew trees in Dwc last winter and put almost no effort into it. Just kept topping off my res and off they went. I have not been able to duplicate those results since!! I've dealt...

    Who uses tap water? LA tap water to be exact

    Or at least fewer Problems lol. Dwc has been a nightmare. Got some great crops with it but I'd lose 2 out of 3 crops! Not worth it. Tea only goes so far apparently. Especially once the temps start to go up. Then it's just fucking impossible .

    Who uses tap water? LA tap water to be exact

    Me and a buddy run almost identical systems. The only dif is he uses tap water, and pays way less attention to his grow. And he gets better results with less problems. Think I should dump the ro water? I'm in LA and the water is around 200 ppm. I'm also switching from Dwc to readygro aeration...

    (g/m2) sog

    Running a ton of clones can a pain too. 9 isn't shit but a lot of peeps rock like 4 plants per sqft! That adds up. That's 64? Clones per light. But then again there are many ways to go about a sog.

    Can we talk botanicare readygro aeration formula!

    Another great thing about this mix: When using rockwool cubes to clone, in Dwc the cubes stay drenched and that causes problems, but with the aeration mix, it actually pulls water from The cubes to make it only as wet as the soilless readygro mix. Not sure I'd that's been a prob for anyone...

    Can we talk botanicare readygro aeration formula!

    What's up everybody. I'm getting myself out of a year long Dwc nightmare. I'm done constantly battling micro organisms that love to munch on roots. Yes I did the Heisenberg tea. It did help me rid my plants of root slime, but only during the winter. Once air temps went up the tea wouldn't...

    Return pump being a pain in ebb n gro

    So my fill pump works without a hitch. Timer comes on, pump fills buckets. But when the timer turns off and the buckets should be emptying back to the res, the pump gets air locked. 1 out of maybe 6 times the pump Will retune like its supposed to, but the other 5 times ill go check the...

    Flood cycle. Why not more often?

    You flood every 20 minutes after they are ten inches tall? Are you supposed to water more often when using lava rock? What's is your flood cycle befor 10"?

    Flood cycle. Why not more often?

    I'm just tryi. To figure out why it's recommended to flood ebb and grow buckets only 3 to 4 times during the light cycle? I guess that's pretty often in flower but in veg it's not at all. Why would it be a problem to flood every couple hours in hydroton or lava rocks? Seems like it would just...

    Ph with lava rock in ebb n grow

    My ph shoots up after I flood. It took a dozen floods for it to finally balance out and stop spiking. Is this pretty standard when using lava rocks in an ebb and grow bucket system?
