Wazzup rzza?? Long time no talk! I forgot my damm password so I had to create a new account. Too much good shit I've been smokin on I guess! ;-) As far as the hydro goes .... I hated it!! I ran with an ebb and flow set up for about 2 years, and the results were pretty good, but I couldn't get a handle on the humidity. I had four 4x4 trays with a 40 gallon reservoir under each table, so not only was the humidity an issue, it was a supreme pain in the balls to empty and refill each one of those reservoirs every 2 weeks. I'll stick with the dirt!! Hope everything is well with you!
 
So here are the 5, held up in the 4x4 flower under ad older 600W. 2 Sharksbreath, an Original Amnesia, a confidential cheese, and the Burmese Kush. If they run an 8 week flower they are looking at another 3 to 3 1/2 weeks. Lovely ladies I tell ya, just lovely.

Two weeks behind those we have 7 S/B's and 3 leamon g's filling up half of the day flower 4x8

Just off to there left we have a mix of 8, Burmese, Lemon G, Sharks, Original Amn running about 2 weeks behind the right.

I've got a few Red Dragons and Lemons a week and two out but run them on a night flower.
This lets me use the exhaust from the flower tents to heat the house 24/7 and at times I have to open a window's to lower the temp. At peak times we are running at 4600 watts between veg and flower and drop down to 2600 when the veg/preflower tents shut down.
 
Pro mix bx, it's considered a soil less mix but I call it soil.
The Ez Cloner is about as close as I come to hydro.

I've never had a hydro I couldn't tell was hydro so I stick with soil.
 
I wouldn't know.
It's about as close as you can get to a zero medium so I would think any would work good with it.
I've always used FFarm with a few other additives and I've yet to have any problems.
I bottom feed once they hit pre flower and it works wonders absorbing the water/nutes.
 
Promix bx already has a Mycorrhizae ...

Pro-Mix[SUP]®[/SUP] BX Mycorrhizae[SUP]®[/SUP] is a general purpose peat-based growing medium containing, a beneficial mycorrhizal inoculum (Glomus intraradices). These microscopic fungi attach to and colonize the root systems working in symbiosis with plants. It benefits plants by increasing water and nutrients acquisition (especially Phosphorus, Copper and Zinc). This symbiotic relationship between fungi and plant, results in an overall improved plant growth.

So try to find a micro nute that's suited for the nutes you use.
The balance is important. I use micro brew, but only after the soil has been flushed, and only use 1/2 doses even though it's part of the fox farm line.
 
Doesn't matter if it's organic or not, there is a reason they have applications ratio's and those ratio's do not take in to account the amount already in the medium. To much of any fert/nute can be bad for the plant, organic or not.
