Hey guys, I just moved my rooted plants to my aero system, and wanted to know if you guys could give me some advice on how many times i should water a day and for how long. The plants are in net pots, rooted in rockwool plugs (pots filled with hydroton). The plants will have a 400watt Mh for light (I have a 430 hps for bloom)and the aero machine mistes nutrients at the roots. There are 6 360degree mistres that completley airate the grow chamber with nutrients. After the nutrients are sprayed at the bottom of the net pots then it is recirculatd back to the reservoir. I was thinking of misting for 15 minutes every 3-4hrs is this to long to wait for watering??

History Shaping the Future By Trevor Shields The roots of hydroponics are as deep and strong as those of the plants the science nurtures itself. “Hydroponics” as a term was first coined by Dr. W. E. Gerricke in the 1920s and 30s to define his work with plants. The word is an amalgam of the two Latin words “Hydro” and “Ponos” which literally translates as “water working.” While the latter half of the 20th century saw the largest leaps in technology and instrumentation of the science, the earliest recorded instance of hydroponics are the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. This Wonder of the Ancient World is regarded as one of the first working hydroponic gardens, but…

for every1 that doesnt know about the ducks foot strain, it was bred by a guy that goes by the name wally duck....plants grow short and dense untill flowering when they stretch for the sky...the most talked about part of the strain is the leaf structure because the blades are webbed making it hard to tell that the plant is a mully Ducksoffspring is a cross with blueberry and i decided to plant a seed to test it out and after only 4 days in the middle of winter it sprouted and started off pretty fast untill the first serated leaves stopped growing...its growing slower than i expected but thats only due to the time of year aside from blabbin on here are some pics …

Hi all and thanks for all your help. I use General Hydroponic Nutrients. Flora Gro 2-1-6, Flora Micro 5-0-1, and FloraBloom 0-5-4. The tips of my leaves are turning yellow whick means I'm over fertilizing. My system is 2 gallon water farm, a ring drip system, and I'm growing 2 plants. I change the water and add nutrients once a week, can anybody recommend how much of each nutrient I should add, also how often should I water. I'm in my sixth week and keep the light on 16-18 hours. The plants are looking great but like i said i do have a little bit of yellow appearing on some of the leaves. Thanks again.

GDay Ozstoners. Just thaught I might kick of a thread based on different bubbler Ideas. I have noticed that there are a few growers out there taking advantage of these simple & sweet systems. Well, each and every grow has its own spin, so feel free to discuss any improvements or flaws you have all encountered. To take a look at my garden and a couple bubbling Ideas take at look at Bubbling Away

Hi all, just a quick question regarding seeds. I am a first-time grower, and im growing from seeds collected from weed brought over the years. My question is whether there will be much difference in quality as opposed to "name" strains purchased from seedbanks. Should we keep using bagseed or go for the "White Widow"? Are seeds purchased from seedbanks that much better than bagseed?
