Rez temps! Id like to also know what is an acceptable constant temp i should try to achieve. Mine reached 78 degrees today after i added the 400.
PHUCK.
Burning shit down right. Ill be the next person to burn. Ashes to dust.
Ive heard alot of different stuff about rez temps.
Id like to hear it from actual phucking sog growers now.
Im not very happy yall abandoned me.
Bugs is, and prolly will always be an a hole in which i will never get any actual info from, yet i have gotten good stuff from him but he should be placed on medication so that he can be stable enuff to earn a barons night hitman to accompany him in his quests.
God damn son a bish. I need to know man. 78 degree rez temps and high 80 room temps can i harvest or should i just quit. I dont really care anymore but am embarrased i even attempted this without being prepared
phucking shit.

Hey bro, rez temps arent a concern in Flood & Drain unless u flood a million times per day, if u flood once or twice per day room temp is fine. That is the main reason I went to Flood tables, with my aero setup I had to have a chiller for each res and I couldn't afford that shit, nor do I weant the headache of Aeroponics when I'm trying to learn how to grow.. Just keep ur room temps under 80.

Who cares really the simple fact is they are all pretty much exactly the same, constructed an distributed to compete with each other on the same marketing level i think..

do you think he's a lost cause....:-P
Bugs likes his room at at a cool 600 degrees :fire:so its kinda hard to compare grow temps.

i had the sniffles and went to bed. some of us have grows to maintain and when you "grow" up you will understand.

God damn son a bish. I need to know man. 78 degree rez temps and high 80 room temps
Click to expand...
yo mamma....some people say 64-72 is perfect for the res....BUT your res should be aerated and that alone will cool it to a point. and i believe ch mentioned a lil known (apparently) fact that is dont make a big diff in ebb-n-flow dammit. now shut up and grow

can i harvest or should i just quit. I dont really care anymore but am embarrased i even attempted this without being prepared

Hello,
I am new here and a fairly new grower.
I am needing some info on flushing my ebb&flow because my ppm keeps going up.

2x4 E&F SOG
1000w HPS
6x6 rockwool/ hydroton
4x per light cycle for 15 mins
6.7 ph
1500 to 2000 ppm

how come you PH is that high? I run mine at 5.8. Hydro should be 5.8 soil at 6.4. And you in the 6.7? That does not sound right either apart from the PPM problem.

Yeah to start your PH is too high, get it down to between 5.2 to 5.9. As for your PPM. If the PPM is rising it could be because your water is evaporating or getting used up by the plants. Are you using RO water? If your using tap water check the PPM thats in it already. Tap water in my hood is at 700ppm. Just top off your rez with more water to reduce the PPM.

how often should i flush my table and what is the best way to do it?

my tap water from a shallow well is 70ppm
I add fresh waterand it brings the ppm down but by the next day it goes back up. plants show no deficiencies

Thanks,

mine are at about1350-1450 constantly. no burn or defficencies in the last year.:clap:

oh really? =P

I am at max 1000ppm during certain weeks. Some people have those high numbers and some ppl have those low numbers. I know it depends on lighting and strain and shit but when I ran at that level I ended up with okay weed, but obviously burnt and crispy. I run at 1000 max now and they look 10x better. Just never quite sure where I should go.

Yeah you just gotta keep adding fresh water.

If by flush you mean clean then i clean my table once a month and my rez every two weeks when i do water changes.

Question fellas, so if my tap water is at 700ppm. What the hell is in it? Chlorine and shit? I'm wondering because now that i've got 70 gallons to change every two weeks its a big hassel going to the store 5 times to refill my 5 gallon water cannisters. When you have bad tap water what can you do to make it useful?

700PPM for tap, god dam! Thats some nasty shit! Anyways, I think mine runs at half that. I would invest in a RO system and screw the jug trips! Thank god my res tank is 14.5 gallons! :)

Get R/O and a bunch of Jugs. I got one on sale at Lowes and I just gradually fill 7 gallon buckets through the week. From 600ppm to 0ppm, HUGE difference.

You can also get a R/O system with a bigger Reservoir, but I just went with the one on sale and it is good for baking and drinking as well.

bugs is using .7 conversion (i think) and you are using .5 so you are talking about the same strength. You should always try to clarify your conversion or just use EC (You are both at about 2.0EC)to stop confusion.

hey livesoul -

Have you calibrated your meter lately? That is the worst city water I have ever heard of. Didn't you say it used to be 200?

I use a 500ppm/1EC factor, but when I post I always upconvert to 700 because I have noticed most people seem to use it.

I am glad my mothers survived their 1200-1400 Nute levels (1680-1960ppm in 700ppm/1EC) until I learned my lesson. Now they stay around 850ppm (in 700). No wonder none of my store bought clones would take into the system, now they have no problem. It seems we always have to learn the lessons that no one has in their grow guides.

Cool cool. I'm glad they are ok. Yea, that's pretty hot, especially with a high N grow fert. Good luck, Spork. Sounds like you are on the right track now. :joint:

So how about the topic of Pest prevention and extermination? All ideas are welcome but I would like to know how to prevent against spider mites especially. I can't use predatory bugs.

Watch your housplants. Mites are carried in by you from another source. If you have been working on an outdoor garden or in a lot of vegetative outddor growth change clothes BEFORE entering your garden.
