Have we got a pool going on this yet? I got a dollar that says this is not going to happen. ;) Cheers, Maxx

I have a concern that you are going to run into trouble with what looks like peat pucks in the center of rock-wool cubes. I have seen this tried before, and have not seen it work out well for a couple of reasons. One being that the peat stays too wet, and the other that it doesnt stay put with...

Would be nice to have the ultimate testing facility to settle out all of these theories. Cheers, Maxx

"He is right about the aeration, about the RW being a wicking media that will saturate and therefore deprive early root systems of essential oxygen, hindering long term development." Properties of Rockwool as a Substrate The water holding capacity and drainage characteristics of substrates...

Been there, both over, and under grown. Cheers, Maxx

Hey leonardo, If this experience leads you to a deeper exposure to the I Ching then you may feel it to be a bargain in a very short period of time. The 5th place changing line from hexagram 36 below describes the origin of this situation, however it doesn't take much to see a similar...

I posted this ancient bit of wisdom from the 'Book of Chances' a little while ago but it might not have been in this thread. This is all about 'hiding your light', and one of the main lines from R Wilhelms embelishments (if that is the right word to use) is; 'In such times one ought not to...

I would stick with rockwool prop cubes to start with then try other things once you get your stuff straight on that. Cheers, Maxx

res pump comes with the Volksgarden. Cheers Maxx

I have heard of, but not seen Volksgardens using screen techniques to fill up the garden using low plant numbers like 20 and even as low as 8. Cheers, Maxx

I have no idea if Vitamin D milk is going to work or even what it is, so I can't really tell you about how many times to spray it. You should know pretty quick if it's going to work for you or not. Cheers, Maxx

Shouldn't have to cut away any of the plant with this treatment. This cured my plants, unlike most other stuff that just controls it, and I had it thick like cheese. Cheers, Maxx

One part whole milk to ten parts water is correct, and I have used it with 100% success. I believe it is safe enough to spray on most things unless it is contaminated with Mad Cow disease ;). I tried several things before finding the milk thing, and nothing worked anywhere near a swell. I...

Nice looking set up Leonardo, and welcome. For powdery mildew I have used whole milk diluted 10 to 1 with water, and it worked better then anything I tried off the shelf at the hydro store. :popcorn: Cheers, Maxx

Thanks Jeff. I don't think you get anything out of the aircon unit besides heat, so i dont think you have to worry about "bad air". Looking forward to seeing your grow :popcorn: That should give you plenty of time to grow enough cuttings for a Volksgarden imo. Cheers, Maxx
