Hi everyone, I was on here a while back and was doing a PC case grow when ultimately the (4) CFLs I had just were causing too much heat and really wreaking havoc on my reservoir and the temps. I am really sold on LED, especially since heat isn't an issue and the yields I've seen are...

Well guys, I figured I'd give an update. My first grow on here has ended. :rip: I am trying to read up on exactly what supplies I need and how to set up a little stealth control bucket for my next grow. I went to HD & Lowe's and both had a "drip irrigation" section, but it was hodge podge...

Green, For the sake of expediency, I'm going to check out HD on this stuff. I'm assuming it'd be in the lawn irrigation section. I'll go check it out today & report back. If I can save a haul over to the local hydro store, that'd help.

Thanks for the info. That's what I was looking for. So essentially, what I'm going to have is a reservoir and a control bucket. I'm going to have two supply lines running from the manifold to each plant. Then I'm going to have a return line running from the bottom of the reservoir to the...

Green, Yes I did post in the link you gave me. Thanks everyone for the info. Will post a follow up soon.

I could really use some direction from people experienced with Deep Water Culture so I know what would be a suitable system for a scaled down version of Roseman's setup. The plants are doing okay, but they're just in plain H20 with some H202. Do I need a large control tank? Do they make...

Re: Stealth Hydroponics Deep Water Culture Growing Q & A Hey Roseman, I LOVE your tutorial and thank you very much for it. +rep If you take a look at my signature link, I'm in the process of a PC grow and I'm having some heat issues that have induced two bouts of root rot. So I've decided...

I've decided that I am going to add a control bucket. Could someone point me or at least advise me on what I should get for a grow area of my size? I'm not being lazy, it's just that I see all these big 5 gallon buckets for big grows, but mine's so small, I don't know what exactly I need to...

Thanks guys for all the responses. Okay, to answer the 1st question. My res temperature is 75.7 degrees F. I have a digital thermometer that is very accurate. I don't know if that's too high or not, but judging by the fact that the plants are only drinking about 1/8 of the res per day, I...

Well...(sigh)... If these girls are to bear any fruit for me, they're gonna kick my ass on the way to it. Got home tonight, checked the res..Coated in slime..just BOOM..that fast. I left for work today, everything looked okay. pH was sitting at 5.9. I was off to another day of thinking...

Re: Tims First Hydro Grow- TONS OF PICS! -Need Help OG Kush, Lm Skunk, GWS, Church, P MMRC, What an inspiring grow! Makes me appreciate my two little ones. Beautiful plants, how I'd love to rip on one of those pretty buds once cured. Wow. BTW, I thought a journal was completed after the...

Ok, so finally a picture update. And I'm here to say............. :cheertwo: Both girls rebounded and are pumping out green new growth and getting a bit taller too! Just a little bit though. I know I shouldn't be too excited at this stage, but they look better. A lot better. The fan leaves...

Myzz, That's my plan depending on what I can harvest. If I can get 1/2-3/4 ounce per plant, that would give me enough time to grow another batch from seeds, since i use a vaporizer. If I get less than that, I think I'm going to need to build a veg box for a mother plant. We'll see. Harvest...

Okay, update... I've cleaned & flushed out the reservoir and here's some notes I've taken: -The roots are much whiter than a few days ago, but a bit of brown nasties still remained, so I sprayed the roots down again with 3% H202 and they liked that..By the time I had returned with the...

Butcher, should I stick with straight water when i replenish my res or should I go ahead and add my nutes back in? my plants are looking a little discolored, and some leaves have some curl on them...
