Hey buddy :) Can you bring down EC aswell? Im trying to figure out if theres any way to get water down to "good enough" as id have a hard time doing RO at home.

In general: water that moves is usually preferable to water thats been sitting still, it may create zones of low oxygen where you get bacteria you dont like. But if continually refilled theres some movement. And high mineral water: if you keep refilling your mineral values tend to go up. -...

Yes thats the easiest thing to test first. Heating mat under pots (thermostat is a must have! You can boil the roots if too much) would be my nr 2. I wish they made pots with built in heating cabling, would be narly. Cfl is not an incandescent, has more visible light and less IR than...

Theres these heat blankets you can try to put under or maybe around the pots. If still not enough the ceramic heaters are a good option, a buddy of mine uses them for winter ledgrows to great success. Id start out small, not sure if they are dimmable. Another protrick is extract the bottom...

There seems to be cuts that adapt better or worse to HPS and LEDs. There are many different spectrums possible with leds but it seems like most manufacturers have settled into the same type of spectrum which is optimized for highest light output per watt and full cycle instead of being either...

Hey Brazzik, how are you? Not seen you around much lately. Hope all good. Still loving the study you posted for me.

No, nothing you say about your weed can be true cause youre a weed salesman and thus all good things you say about this is lies. You see how that goes both ways, right? My buddy also get paid about 40% premium for his, and since i only "sell" lights i guess im more trustable than you on buds? I...

Great posting this, PP, i dont think ive seen these before except for D.

I dont really know how to respond or what youre responding to; my comment was that AC dont humidifies, dont raise humidity. Just as you say it removes humidity from the air. I have lots of sympathy for peeps having problems growing with leds, especially what you find on todays cookie cutter...

The idea that AC humidifies is factually not correct. Though it may regulate rh a bit upwards in some situations since lowering temps will make the air hold less absolute humidity the AC tends to draw out water from the air as it cools it; thats why you need that little drain/tank. Enjoy growing :)

Never grown in water so not had the chance to do proper blinds tests and clubs around here dont generally list grow media. But incidentally done a lot of side by sides in coco with different tuned led lights- up to the point where you started to notice patterns in the taste. In blind tests it...

Is it worth the investment? Depends on why you grow and what is your goal and situation. And also how much youre willing to invest in effort and money. Leds have gotten a lot cheaper than they used to be. Leds require a bit more of the grower in my opinion - you need to have tighter control...

Looks fantastic. So hairy :) Any UV?

However, if your replacement light sports a fairly different spectrum you may see differences in how your plant reacts.

Youre likely to see a bit more light per watt. Diode brand in itself has little impact on bud tightness directly but will influence how much light you get out of the fixture. However you could get a similar increase in on cannopy intensity by moving your light a bit closer but this would affect...
