Testing Beneficial Bacteria in Ebb and Flow (AK47 with Great White)

For every person he's rubbed the wrong way, he's been a favorite to a hundred others. Mostly I see a certain personality type not appreciating or understanding him- and that's just fine- no need to post, just keep moving along and find what meshes with your personality. I for one joined this site due to his threads- had no problem pming him for the results, and it started a further level of knowing eachother- so perhaps a different approach is all that's needed in order to get something from this thread, and plenty was taught along the way without that single final result. Good luck- wish you well...

Word, if you don't agree with him fine. Do what works for you. I don't agree with everything he does, but that doesn't mean he is wrong. I just do what works for me. I guarantee you every answer you need to grow good bud with dyna-gro is somewhere in the few threads he has running here. Go to the threads, then search what you are asking about.

i feed the benes sweet from botanicaire works good

I would never put molasses in any medium I grow in, especially hydro.

What do you think about adding an occasional compost tea along with running chemical ferts? I have seen a simple tea that consists of EWC, fish, kelp and molasses brewed for 12 to 24 hours depending on temperature and then added to plants every 10 days or so. Would that be of no added benefit?

The only thing I'd worry about is attracting bugs. That being said, there are some 'clean' products out there that wont attract bugs and will probably yield the same benefit as your homemade tea. Floralicious and Florablend from GH are both products I've used at some point.

Ok, so the smoke report is in and I've tested the final product myself as well. The thing is, I really don't like where this forum is headed and can't stand the bad info and shitty grows that come from a lot of the trolls around here. Basically, there are a lot of people on here that I don't like and don't want to help. For those of you who would like my impressions of Great White in hydro, send me a PM and I'll cut and paste my write up to you. Cheers guys and thanks for following along. We should be seeing some smoke reports from a few members in early April.

Hi homebrewer, Long time fan and follower here. Thank you for providing me with an invaluable education FREE of charge! Im afraid that I do not have much to contribute here. Ive had merely 3 successful harvests (still in school and live with parents). Yet I am insatiably curious for one day I will have many experiences and proper "homebrewer style" scientific method experiments to post. Can you please share your results of this test I have quoted? Its been 5 years I hope our trolls are long gone.

So what's the report? I'm thinking of doing tea a cup a gallon through the hydroton, let it ride it's 48 life span, wait abother day, then do food grade h202 then after 4 days add bennie tea again. Whats your advice?

Or what about having a float valve and bennies aerating in the full bucket? Keep em alive while you replenish slowly?

Sounds like too much work to me and I don't think it would have any benefit.
