I had one stretch like that too. I used a plant tie wire to make a support for it.

Hydro Buddy is a nutrient calculator to optimize the nutes you feed. Some nutes are lacking in some ingredients so you change the amounts while maintaining the same NPK ratio but using different ppm amounts. @Skybound420 has a tutorial of it on YouTube. That's why I'm hoping he will pop in...

I only wait 2 weeks. With Mega Crop I've fed as soon as the plants had 2 nodes without any issues. Some of the other nutes caused nute burn when I fed that soon even at 1/2 strength.

I use fresh soil every grow & my wife reuses my grow soil for her flowers. I don't bother to reamend it as it's only $35 per grow & less work.

High All ! I've been growing for a while now. Probably close to 5 years. This is actually my 14th grow & I'm hoping to up my grow game with advice from some of you pros out there. I feel like I reached a dead end on the site I was on & there's no way to advance there. They just keep...

Thanks for the Heads Up ! You guys find some awesome deals.

I'm new on this site so I'm not sure of the rules here. So are people allowed to post the equipment they are selling instead of listing it on ebay or somewhere else ? Or are you only allowed to post links for new equipment ? Just wondering as I usually sell off my equipment & upgrade every...

I just sold my Medic Grow Fold 8 because it didn't perform very well. The Phlizon 800 watt 10 Bar was way better. I still prefer Mars Hydro for a good medium grade light.

Hi all. Interesting thread. I'm going to say be very careful with using cheapo lights. I bought 3 of them a couple years back. One quit working so I opened it up & Wires were all melted inside. I opened the other 2 & same thing was happening to them. I shut that grow down because of it...

I do some things differently. For instance light companies say you should have your light at like 24" - 36" for seedlings. I have 1 Mars Hydro TSL2000 over my 4 seedlings. The light is at 12" & set at 35% which gives me 11,000 Lux. Why give the electric company your money ? At 36" I'd have...

Sorry if I upset you a little. I was only trying to show some of the equipment I use for my grows to try to get someone interested. If I didn't use AC I'd surely be worried about an 80 degree temp in an empty tent as it would probably get closer to 90 with plants in there. Maybe even higher...

But I did say I use a portable AC during my grows which controls the temps really well. I'm not going to cool an empty tent. Make sense ? I know they say 77F is the perfect temp. I also know that when I had 82F temps in my grows I got bigger yields than at 77. Maybe because of the strains...

No, I don't Flush unless I get a toxicity & my calculations don't require Cal Mag (usually). I do keep a bottle on hand just in case. I use Mega Crop as a nutrient & it has enough Cal Mag. I only add Mono Silicic Acid (Si) & Nitrogen 5-0-0 (N). Some may not agree with the way I grow & I'm...

Hi Bam. Not sure if you are the same Bam from the other site I'm on too. I ended up posting the journal on the other site since I wasn't getting any replies here. Are the people just not very friendly or what ? I still may post the journal here too. I'll have a 4 day weekend so I'll have...

Those are really nice plants for just water. I've never tried that.... but I might now. I use FFOF with Mega Crop with added "N" & "Si". But I start feeding 1 week after they're above ground. But after seeing your plants with just water it's got me thinking things over. Keep up the nice...

Out of curiosity, so what pH would your nutes be if you mixed Coco with soil ? Coco is a 5.8 pH & Soil is 6.3 pH. I only use FFOF with a little perlite added so wondering how things go when you mix Coco & Soil. Might be something I'd try.

Well so far it's looking like this may not be a very friendly site. Big difference from the site I came from. Normally I'd have about 20 people welcoming someone new in just a couple of hours. Here, I got 1 comment & not a very good one. "80 F in an empty tent.... lol." Who cares what the...

Wife has the heat on 78 - 80 F. She's always cold. I guess from her double lung transplant or something. That's why I run a Portable AC when growing.... lol.

High All ! I actually joined this site about a year ago; but never really posted much. I've been on a couple of other sites for the past 4.5 years & well, after a while everything just keeps getting repeated over & over. I figure it's time to move on to get some fresh knowledge & insight on...

I'm not absolutely sure without looking at my notes but I think with 5 gr. MC & 1 gr. SC per gal. it comes out to about 2 - 4 - 7.
