Hi All, Started using General Hydroponics flora series and was hoping to sponge a feed schedule off someone with experience for comparison against mine. I have almost completed my first run in coco which overall I am pleased with but like everyone here I`m always looking do better. In addition to the schedule I would like to know if any additives are worth it. Any feed back is appreciated.

So I’ve been researching abit to upgrade my current setup. Currently have a small tent 0.5x0.9x1.6 and and 250 hps. I’m able to flower 3 autos quite effectively in that space. I have a cool tube and im able to hold my hand on the glass of it so heat is nil factor. I’d like to upgrade to a 1x1x2 m tent. Was looking at those mars hydro 2 700 or 900 setups. The 700 for example says it will replace a 350 w hps. I’m not real sure as to what the advantage over a hps is as it also says it pulls 300w out of the wall anyway and will prob heat the tent up more than a hps with a cool tube. Am I missing something with these led lights? Doesn’t seem like they would be much bette…

Hey y'all!! I have 6 beans...all sprouted except one but it's only been three days... All were started in Jiffy pellets and under the propagator dome. I've only lifted the dome off to check on them as the condensation stops me looking inside to see if the pellets are dry or not. I want to transplant the Jiffys directly into pots but don't know how long I should wait. First set of real leaves? A certain height? All advice is gratefully appreciated. Cheers!! :-)

I promised some info on ppm meters, to bl0nd3 I think it was, last time I was on. So here is hopefully some information and a calculation sheet that you might find helpful. I have got most of the info from assorted places around the net over the years and have tried to make it as un-technical as I can considering the subject. There is a word 2013 doc and a 2013 excel file. Hope this is helpful. ppm.zip

Got some A-Ultimate going by Dutch Passion thought they were going ok but started to see little burning happening i didn't think much of it most of the burning than increased on only one and it was a mutant common within the DP Auto's, so i continued and done a water change now at this point i am thinking i let it go to long but it should recover my problem was i went from coco to RDWC which is chalk and cheese between the two systems, it was playing on the back of my mind what chemicals may have been ran thru the chiller by previous owner but the TDS meter was only showing 240ppm which is 150ppm tap water and only 90ppm of actual food so today i pumped out the water …

Hi all:) I have been wary of North American marine products for some time - both east and west sides. Also, the environmental cost of posting crustacean shell to Australia is quite high. For an easier and possibly superior alternative to crab shell (both as a liming and chitin source), I would suggest using cuttlefish bones or cuttlebones. The primary component is aragonite (basically calcium carbonate) and the exoskeletal is made up of chitin. I've attached a study where they found the chitin and later chitosan production to be higher than crab shell. If you live nearby a clean beach ... just pick up some of the washed ashore cuttlebones and put them in a blender -…
