    Thanks, @ttystikk, I got this email today after 4 days of waiting for a response from them. Please let me know if this is BS, or I'm just using it wrong. Thanks, Do Growstones allow for capillary water rise (wicking capacity)? Yes. Growstones wick up water up to 13 to 15 cm above the water...

    @Tim Fox, interesting, how does this work? With plastic bag on top of planter, there is no need to mulch? Top drees? Top water? Or can all the above be done with the plastic bag? And how would I add my cal/ mag, or other nutes? In the res? Sorry for the barrage of questions.. Here is what I'm...

    Grounding my DIY Cob fixture

    Hi guys I have the hbg-60-1050 meanwell driver. It's only has 2 wires, blue - (neutral) and brown + (hot) and no ground wire, does this mean I don't need a Ground wire? Or do I need to have a 3 prong 18 awg cord? Thanks,

    Hey guys! It's good to be here on RIU, been here about a week and loving it! With that said! I agree with NoobieDoobieDoo ( try saying that 3 times fast) from my understanding, there is no way to tell sex by looking at seeds.

I would like to know what kind of 120v ac power cord to attach to the driver. Also, there is a removeable rubber grommet on the backside...

    Need advice on what soil to buy.

    You should be fine, FFOF or as mentioned by Mr sticky, Roots Organic (my personal favorite). As I understand it both has enough nutrients to last about 3 to 4 weeks, then you can begin the trio nutes. I use both soils in my organic mix, left the Bottle behind and never looked back. Good luck

    Need advice on what soil to buy.

    Sure you can! Just wait about a month before using the fox farm trio. You can use plain ph'd water until then, if using led lghts, from what I understand add cal/mag to your water. I used the same setup FFOF and trio with CFL lighting on my first grow. Good luck to you!

    Organic for dummies?

    Lol! Organic for dummies is right! I thought if I disturbed the top layer of soil, I would be destroying my Microbes. Thanks, @Rasta Roy for the clarity, so, I can safely say that for me growing Organic in 5 gallon pots doesn't make sense, I could barely put my hands in the pots. Thanks,

    Organic for dummies?

    Hi guys, I love this thread, we needed something like this. I just finished a grow in two 5 gallon air pots, I top dressed once in flowering, with compost, EWC and tomato tone, Now I believe I must have the meaning of "top dressing" wrong, because about a week later when I was watering alot of...
