Can anyone point me to a site that shows (maybe with diagrams) how all the different hydro setups work eg: DWC, Flood & Drain, run to waste, bubbler etc. I don't even know if these are different types, anyone. I thought I would look at all the options whilst I get my first grow (in soil) under my belt.

G'day All , Budman here ... Well ... The days are getting longer and warmer around here ... And In the upcoming weeks It is time for me to start thinking about how I am going to prepare my garden. I am going to prepare the soil in September and start some Cherry Tomato plants after that ... I've never grown them , but they should be easy from what I know. I have no idea about the different varieties and trying to find this information was a big drama for me ... I want information on their rooting structure ...

Hi all this is my first grow in the new drobe everything is running great except that the colas are not looking as good as they should be for 5 weeks (as I have grown this strain few times before) as I discussed in the chat room with people I think it may come down to using an oldish globe?? I swapped for a better one so will see what happens from here....... all nutrients same as usual and all that.......but it has been bloody hot this summer, relentless, so maybe this is part of he cause?? any ideas ?? The strain is NL#1

i plan to do a closet grow... one plant... organics... using CFLs... home-made carbon filter... i been researching and reading everyday for the last two weeks... however, as i never done anything to do with plants, i cant make sense of most of the information... starting reading hydro... since i couldnt find anywhere for hydro, i starting reading about organics... confused... i got a few questions... what stinks more, the soil/fert or the plant itself? whats a good, cheap soil mix? for one plant... with Nutrients, why is there always A & B?

Hey all! So I've done lot's of reading up and I'm quite convinced to try out aeroponics for my first grow... mainly because I already have much of the spray heads and such already from a herb garden.. not this kind of herb though xP Looking around I came across a interesting set up... 6" PVC piping with 3.5" holes cut ever 12" with 3" pots for the plants.. in conjunction of course with misters and then training into a reservoir. apparently they where flowering at 12 - 16" - which is good for me and brings me to another question.. is there a way to control plant size whilst still getting a good yield? I don't want massive plants in my wardrobe.. I'd like something m…

Hi guys, I'm growing in a relatively small area, a clone tent with the dimensions of 0.8x45x0.8 and am ready to purchase a hps bulb and ballast for flowering. I already have a cool tube + ducting for the fixture. I am just wondering which would be best in this area of space between 250w and 400w hps and if anyone has any info or experience in regard to this. Much Appreciated. UC
