    CFL wattage for cloning

    Hey everyone. I'm looking to make my cloning setup a bit smaller, and want to try CFLs. For those of you who have cloned under CFLs, how many plants per light, and what wattage have you found to work best?

    For all you newbie hydro growers...

    Hey everyone, I've noticed a lot of newbie hydro growers with great ambitious DIY hydro projects. High pressure aero, low pressure aero, NFT, DWC, etc are all great ways to grow in hydro-- but they all have a learning curve, especially if you have never grown in hydro before. If its your...

    Soil-less "root repair" mix

    Hey all, I had a specialty function soil-less mix that I just came up with this summer, and as I've had some success, i thought I'd share it with anyone who might find it beneficial. I recently became charged with fixing up some houseplants with root damage, either from over-watering...

    Compost Sac

    I plan on trying out one of these soon... http://www.smartpots.com/compost-sak It's basically a tall 100 gallon smartpot designed for backyard composting.

    Drain to waste in coco coir. Automated watering systems anyone?

    I've become a huge fan of drain to waste in coco. (For the skeptical, drain to waste does not have to be wasteful. In fact I find it saves water if done properly.) Here's the setup... 6, 5 gallon smartpots in a bathtub, filled with coco coir. Clones started in coco coir, and transplanted into...

    Is aeration necessary in a resevioir when the solution is circulated well?

    Hey all, I switched to drain to waste coco a few years ago, for most of my indoor and outdoor MJ and vegetable crops. (I still have quite a few soil projects outside) Even my Native American 3-sisters garden is in hydro. Some of my watering is automated (usually my MJ) and some I continue to...
