    Stunted plant?

    It might be that one is just a runt? If its the same environment it would seem that occams razor would apply here ;) That's my best guess anyway.

    Just bought Aeroponic propagator how do I....

    Sure you could, just use rock wool and net pots small enough to fit the diameter of the openings. You can also see their own PDF at http://www.nutriculture.com/images/stories/pdf/uk%20propagator%20booklet.pdf - It has an image example of exactly what you want to do. Germinate seeds as you...

    caddy's Journal #1 - Papaya & Haze 19 x Skunk #1

    I'm going to start this post off by adjusting the dates slightly in which this journal encompasses. The dates 11/8 to 11/15 were the transplant of the cracked seeds to fully sprouted out of the cubes. That being said, the 15th - 22nd (yesterday) would have been the first full week of their...

    3rd grow, papaya seeds

    +rep - Great grow and details keeping the thread updated. I'm also growing Papaya, however, not in soil. My sprout transplant date was 11/08 and the first technical "week" was 11/15 -> 11/22 since they were just breaking out of the cubes the first few days after the 8th. You've done a great...

    2nd AG grow 1 Violator Kush, 1 White Widow, 1 Durban Poison, 1 Northern Lights

    First off your thread is great, I don't do the +rep very often because frankly I'm not a big forum power user and forget to do it, I do however thank everyone that I talk with, and I thank you for the great read. I didn't have an attitude to be honest, all I was saying is definitely let...

    DWC/bubbleponics using hps's (the pro choice of lighting)

    Great thread! I'm also new to DWC/Bubbleponics. I'm 11 days into my Papaya & Haze 19 x Skunk #1 grow. I run quad 6500k T8's for vegetation on a 10 plant 30 gallon bubbleponic tub (mothers, new from seed strains). I opted for the 1 inch air stones that attach directly to the tubes. Air...

    Mold growing on my rockwool?

    Cover them with a heavy paper and cut a piece out with a little opening to go around your stem, this way no light can beat down on the rock wool cube. As for getting rid of the current mold I'm not sure which product is best for that. Will be watching your thread to see what some other...

    Weird reading with pH meter

    Well in the endless searching I've pretty much narrowed it down.. It would appear that the electrodes or device itself goes a little haywire when its near compact fluorescent of any type. I was just setting it on my reservoir or or on the ground with the 4 bulb T8's about 20 inches above the...

    2nd AG grow 1 Violator Kush, 1 White Widow, 1 Durban Poison, 1 Northern Lights

    Of course I like what you guys post, are you kidding? this place is a great place for information, lets just not make it "to" much information that people who do not like seed banks can't identify easily what is what :) I do realize its a general purpose site and about growing and cultivating...

    2nd AG grow 1 Violator Kush, 1 White Widow, 1 Durban Poison, 1 Northern Lights

    I can imagine customs has people reading various sites, having a disclaimer on how descreet it is when the same name is their website might throw flags, eh? How about we not mention at all what anything comes in, or from where. Certainly not trying to be a dick but letting the world know what...

    Weird reading with pH meter

    Has anyone encountered their pH meter changing readings just by the light they're taking the sample in? I was just using a regular clear drinking glass and scooping out a bit of water and putting the meter in it. If I read the meter under the T8's its now exactly at 5.8, if I put the glass...

    caddy's Journal #1 - Papaya & Haze 19 x Skunk #1

    I received my pH & TDS meter today and as anticipated our water comes out at 7.6 pH from the faucet. Having run this system for 8 days so far in vegetation with that initial pH it had gone up around 8.3 in the reservoir tonight when I checked it for the first time vs out of the faucet. I've...

    Need some Help with hydroponics

    Indica vs. Sativa can often be (most easiest) identified by the girth of the fan leaves. Sativa's generally have a much longer & thinner style leaf where as Indica has a short but very fat fan leaf structure. Not a science by any means, but more or less a guide to give you a rough idea. I'd...

    AG seed sprouting

    I've never read anywhere of any seeds taking that long to germinate.. From getting in paper towel to shell/crack sprout it should really be about 3 days max if the seed is good, perhaps longer, but surely not a week even at the worst case scenario.

This is my first time growing and being a fairly technically inclined individual I decided to try my hand at hydroponics. Here is the complete...

    Walmart Parts Useful?etc(Pics)

    I picked up one of those and a couple 30 gallon tanks at Walmart.. one fair bit of advice is those particular tubs when filled a little over half way distort a lot. So much in fact the top lid cannot be closed at all or it will pop right off once the walls push out after you think its snapped...

    ppm reader (TDS meter) ???

    If you have any links to that kind of price, anywhere, please PM it to me if you and the moderators do not mind. I've yet to see any decent combo meter go under $150 on ebay or other comparable stores, and go MUCH higher than that. Much obliged.

    hydroponics in cotton

    You should sprout the seed using a damp paper towel folded over. Dampen the paper towel, fold it a few times, place the seeds on it then fold again to cover the seeds, place on a small dish with a bowl upside down over top of it and place it somewhere with a little warmth (dish dvr, stereo...
