    First time hydro, RDWC, torus hydro review

    Ya you can grows tree cannabis outside but only closer to equator. If u live up north and have seasons, inside it is. Lol but you can grow a huge cannabis tree inside, of coarse looks different because usually have ceilings where it’s at, outside plants don’t have to get trimmed and tamed as...

    Also I did get a res float valve. It said large flow 3/4 float valve. But at the time wasn’t keeping up with my pump. I knew how to fix something every time it fucked up, but I wouldn’t have a connection or adapter or something to keep me from it. Dude I have like 250 worth extra plumbing from...

    Ya and HG u only add during res change. Uc roots depending on water temp add 3-7 ml/G every 2-5 days. And it’s more expensive. But I seen 3 different experiments and uc roots came out on top every time. 1G is like 80 bucks, 5G 180. Answer was clear. Lol

    Ya I have a liter of hydro guard as well. I got all kinds shit. Only bought it cause using uc roots first 2-3 weeks water smelt horrible no matter if I just changed or what. Didn’t make sense. Well it was bc I had no inline filter yet. All the root rot that was trying to come off from uc roots...

    Lol I agree with that. but you and I are doing the same. Stable at 5.7-9 lol I was just posting about the torus hydro cause of customer service. I have 2 white ion bags, and only 1 torus filter. So that means I just need a filter with ends and I have a reservoir one from them. They gave me a...

    Yes absolutely, I use clay pebbles, and treat them for week before use. They haven’t given me any issues at all. Also the colder the water the less pathogens, the more oxygen it is able to hold, and plants grow better bc of oxygen. And also not as much condensation with cooler water.

    Ya but thing is I bought a aqua chiller the hydro one. 1/4hp, just so I could keep water at 67-68 and not worry about UC Roots or pathogens. To cold for them. That’s another reason why I chose RDWC. But chiller uses 400w hour, and my room has enough juice, have to do some electrical /...

    Yes. I could send u all kinds of different articles. Go on google, type in “ph RDWC “ and some say 5.8-6.2, some 5.5-6.2 5.4-6. I guess it just depends on how your system wants to act and what u using. The growers Bible by Jorge Cervantes, he says 5.6-6.2 I think.... but also mentions the other...

    I don’t want 6.4 , I’ve read both ways. But decided I like 5.4/5.5-6/6.1. But my perfectph keeps it at 5.7-9 most time and only 5.5 towards end, and their loving it. But ya less stressful, I can see that. But more stressful the stronger the plant. My system is usually 5.7 all time.

    No, soil ph is all over place, but luckily sool has its own natural buffers, so plants can grow in wider variety of ph. This is my 2nd grow. First was soil, and turned out amazing for a first timer, but I know mistakes I made forsure. Also know the time and time is $ cause of the lights. I’d...

    Ya I Like towards end ph does go down some. I hooked up a 32G brute res... now I didn’t want to do too off res, I just feel like recirculating all round would be better. Well dude nightmare. Water sensors going off every night. Pump taking water, one giving. My res was about 14” off ground...

    I bought that 3 part system 14 months ago, and unfortunately couldn’t go threw with it, but still have them. Those were my original choice, but then advanced nutrients got my attention. I want the sensi bloom part A+B. But shits expensive, but some of the best. But the Lucas formula, my nutes...

    Your damn straight I’m contradicting myself. Lol But I wouldn’t of had to if I had my torus hydro from the get go. It was the first I ordered, but realized immediately I needed something different. Was using fox farm, then decided didn’t want to use them, I chose advanced nutrients, and of...

    Yes it is, do you use a res? I started first 3 weeks no res, messed up a lot man.. didn’t really bad, but I thought they’d get colored but didn’t. Kept accidentally adding to much nutes. Wanted 250-300 and kept getting 5-6. I’m sure they locked them out for a period, but I use UC Roots, and Cal...
