Recieved this clone 1 week ago. Under 400w mh Fox farm ocean forest, maybe a little too hot at the moment, causing the discoloration on the leaves Just using ph'd water, but will be using the flora nutes from general hydroponics. Waiting on 4 more clones, guptilla, forbidden fruit...

Hi guys, I run a flood and drain systems, with 100gal res's that I change every 2 weeks. Recently, in a veg tent, I have seen slow/miscolored growth towards the end of a 2 week cycle (with E.C and PH are fine). I feel like I need to drop the res change frequency to every 10 days and see if this...

I'm looking to start a perpetual grow. I have a system in mind for a comercial setup and wanted to try it out small scale first. So being thrifty and having access to an eavestrough guy's brake I decided to make my own channels to closely match the dimensions of the comercial system. They are a...
