Hey guys, Although its early I'm thinking about where I'm gunna grow. I have found some places in some bush but Im not sure if they will get enough sun. The area of bush is sort of a rainforest cos its near a creek so there are ferns growing etc. I've read that mj should get atleast 5 hrs of direct sunlight a day and they wouldn't get that now in winter because of a lower sun and I'm not sure about summer. A few pics would probably help which ill get in a while. Would I probably just get a lackluster lanky plant and should I find somewhere new or not worry too much n put some beans in the dirt when the times right.

Does anyone ever have a problem getting their PH down. I bought advanced nutrients PH down and its supposed to be very concentrated. The guy told me to add just a few drops really to bring it down. My PH is at 7 atm, and ive added probably 20 drops and it has hardly gone down. Anyone got any advice for me? Or should i just keep adding the acid. Thanks

If I was to construct a NFT system with round pipe so that in effect I was doing DFT (deep flow technique), I would have to run the nutes at a lower rate than what I am now through the clay balls wouldn't I? what EC - ballpark? Has anyone tried DFT? I've read that you should fill the round 6"pipes to around 40% before they hit the drain - does that sound correct? At around 1-2lt/min I think... And the pots sit lower when the clones are young, higher as they grow longer roots, so should this be timed with the switch of lights? I know that whatever level the waterline is established at must be consistently maintained to ensure you don't drown the oxygen grabbing roots but …
