I'd hate to make the wrong decision

I am doing my first grow with an airponic system in clay balls - I have some space in my chamber but I want to try a different medium/system under the same lights ... try and work out how much better the air system is - does anyone have any experience with a 'propagating sand/perlite mix ? I will be hand watering/feeding them and I have read that sand/perlite is a really good medium? Any thoughts would be appreciated

Hi. Ive never grown marijuana and im just wondering what the laws are regarding it. Are you allowed to have a certain limit of lights/plants growing in your house? Including that theres no evidence of 'dealing' and you have no criminal record. Thx for any help.

Hey guys, Been away for a few months, my mum passed away and was just looking after property, business etc. Back in Melbourne now and ready to grow asap. I have sold all my equipment before i went up there, so have to get it all again now. Looking at a bigger grow this time, same DWC style grow but maybe with 2 600W lights and a 400W light. Not sure on how many plants this time around though, but more than 4. Will keep in touch as i rebuild from scratch.

Hi I'm new and was wondering if anyone knows about changing nutrient tanks over for fresh ones - if you keep the TDS at a pretty fixed level by adding water when its higher and nutrients + water when its lower, how often do you change the whole tank for a fresh,flushed and clean one? I can see a sediment (white) on the bottom of the rez but the nute solution looks clear? My plants seem to be loving it by the way but I figure I will need to do a changeover eventually or the airponic sprayers are supposed to clog (they've been going since Aug 10 with no visible reduction in the spray) I'm keeping the ph at around 5.8 and TDS at around 1100 - I just posted some pix of …

Hi gang, I am using an autopot system and am now going into the flowering stage. :thumbsup I bought some Manutec Bloom Booster and was wondering how much I should use. The box says 5g per 5 litres, but I guess that is for general garden use, not hydroponic use. Any and all feedback about how to get the biggest flowers is appreciated.

:scratchin These grow boxes are what I have used since switching to indoors growing. I made these initially following the flood and drain principals, and stuck with these since. They are cheap to make, easy to setup and maintain and they produce. Most bits come from hardware shops. So lets get growing then- What you will need- 2 stacker storage crates, Flood and drain componets-(mushroom and drain) I use the ones off the bigger flood and drain tables just to make sure nothing gets blocked, Air pump, air stone and a one way valve prevents water going up the air line the wrong way. Approx 500 - 600 litre water pump if you only fit the flood and drain. You w…

Hey yall My plants are about 5 weeks old under 600w hps and every time the light goes off some seem to wilt pretty bad but when the light comes back on they stand up again. The light isnt too close as im monitoring the tempreture at the top of the plants, which is about 26,27 degrees what would be causing them to wilt whilst the lights are off? help appreciated P.S. i'll have some pics as soon as i can figure out how to put em on here

Howdy, I have been slowly getting all my gear together for my little stealth setup that'll be operational soon. Initially I was planning on using a regular old recirculating system, but after realising that I don't have all that much space to play with, I have decided to go with the DWC method instead. I'm just after some pointers on things to watch out for using this method, as it seems it's a bit harder to get right than other methods. I have read heaps on this site and others about various DWC setups but they never seem the same, I guess I just want to know where the heck I should start. Any help greatly appreciated.
