hi all. 2nd indoor grow and first time hydro doing an r-dwc bucket scrog. been looking to upgrade my chiller as the one i've been using over the cooler months isn't cutting the mustard with the warmer weather coming on... summer comes fast but even faster it seems when your growing hydroponically! research so far tells me that the Teco chillers although dear as phuk are the crack for both performance, reliability and power usage. I'm running about 50lts atm in an uninsulated res and can't keep the temps under 21 deg cel the last week or so and the leaves on the colas have been cupping and edges of leaves seem to be a little brittle. not sure what is causing …

Hi all, was after some much needed advice. Been growing outside for the last 6 years, but the kids are growing up so I have decided to have a crack at hydro for stealth reasons. Was wondering if individuals experienced in hydro would be willing to suggest me a set up. My criteria is as follows: 1. Would like to keep the whole set up, nutrients, pots, growing medium, tent, lights etc. under $500 2. Happy just to grow 1 at a time (I'm a weekend warrior) 3. Grow space I have is about 1m x 1m x 1.6m 4. Want the set up and ongoing use to be as simple as possible (Was thinking hand watering with a run to waste set up). A mate has suggested the following: 1. Tent https:/…

I have a DTW automated system with a 60 litre res. It's all black with just a couple of holes out the top for hoses and the lid is left slightly ajar for the pump cord. No light coming in from what I can tell via those 2 openings. I do however get a slight algae build up on the hoses and pumps. Worried this may become more of a problem. How often do ppl clean their res out? Do you scrub everything every couple of weeks? Do you add a maintenance dose of hydrogen peroxide(good for roots too I heard).

Heard a few stories about timers failing due to heavy startup loads with hps lamps and ballasts. I am getting ready to flip in the coming week and have been running lights 24/7. Got cheap bunnings timers for exhaust fan but don't think it will hold up for the 600watt hps lamp I'll be running. Any suggestions. I'll post a few pics and a few more details later if I get some responses. Cheers. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

a beginner grower here and Id like some opinions on Carbon Filters, Ionizers etc. Like is one better than the other? (I already have a carbon filter but I think it may be too big for the room it will go in, (10x20 in) is there such a thing as having one too big? ..the room is a converted container (4.8 long 2.4 wide 2.4 high) how about noise reduction? my exhaust is loud! any info would be helpful, thank you!

Hi all, I've been looking all over the net for a reliable answer to this dilemma, so feel free to add to my confusion My set up... - 0.7 x 0.7 x 1.6m tent in a cool to cold garage (outdoor temps) - 300W LED Mars Hydro white series (yeah could do better but it IS finishing an old potted outdoor lady quite nicely right now... plus inexpensive to buy and run) - 80W tube heater - IonMax 681 Dehumidifier (great little unit but has no auto-on for timers, etc.) - Small circulation fan blowing over canopy - Passive intake with a small fan hanging on frame gently pushing tent air through an outlet - Single plant (or two very small plants) setup So far it's easy to maint…
