Sorry, soil-less. I'm already feeding every 7 days, but you're stating just empty the buckets at that time, and refill with fresh water?

So,I've been growing for a couple years and thought it would be good to check to see if I'm doing things right...or downright wrong as far as nutes. I haven't been hugely successful, but I think I know why. Anyways, during the vegetative stage, I use Silica and fox-farms nutrients. Don't need...

Sounds to me like too many nutes. the tips started yellowing. Rockwool cube in hydroton. I went easy on them for first week then turned it on.

I see most people recommend just doing 25% or 50% nutes. If I always go with 100% of what the vendor recommends...is it bad for the plant? Or is it just wasteful? I just had my plant keel over. I just started using LEDs...so wondering if that was the cause...maybe the lights were too close...

Thanks for the advice. Time to get cracking...

Picked up a DarkHeart GG#4 today and have always had these questions but never got around to asking. 1. Should I give it water for a while and then start using nutes? Or okay to start with nutes right away? Normally I phase them in but not sure if thats necessary. 2. What light should it be...

Yeah sounds like. I didn't put any in the mix this week. Was going to start flowering next, but I might go another week vegetative see if I can recover any size. Thanks for response.

I started a grow from clone about 5 weeks ago...just a single plant. 18hours light using HPS (1000w) a day. Hydroton media I've been using FoxFarm Nutrients and they've worked well for me...or at least well enough. I usually use Silica as well during the vegetative stage. I've read good...

Got up off my a$$ and looked through the documentation like I should have originally. Co2 Calculations: 1. Measure and multiply: length x width x height of your grow room to calculate the volume of cubic feet 2. Generally, the c02 level in a grow room is 300 ppm. To bring your room to an...

My buddy had a co2 setup he donated so was going to try and get that going tonight. It comes set default of 1500ppm. I've got a 4' x 4' grow tent. Two plants...although one is a behemoth and the other is living quietly much smaller. Not sure if the number of plants matters. Is that...

I bought the same ones. I'll be switching over on Saturday.
