Deep Water Culture Growing Q & A
To some growers, Deep Water Culture simply means growing with BUBBLES, by using a DWC and Airstones. Technically, Deep Water Culture is a trade-marked registered word owned by Martin Wiggett, an innovator in Hydroponics. It means using a submersive water pump feeding Oxegen, Water and...www.420magazine.com
it is a very busy an active thread.
Daily I click on Deep Water Culture FORUM to look for newbs and new Deep Water Culture to help and to invite them to join.
We all need to occasionally do that.
Nice lookin' grow you have there! +reps
Lookig GREAT, Hubababa! Very pretty, very healthy looking! You are going to get a mess of buds in 4 maybe 5 weeks.
I want be starting a journal anytime soon, I am just breeding indoors now and getting things ready for outdoors. I am just here to offer help and my exp to anyone and for good company. I've used almost all growing methods and nutes etc and love passing on what I've learned over the years so feel free to ask me anything and I'll try to help out. I am new to the whole forums thing, Ive always just stayed up late reading or working in the garden but since I've found a good online community I am ready to give back some of what I have learned. Thanks again in advance to all of you for the warm welcome.
So olhippy any weight on them colas what was the heaviest
I find them cute too GG that is why they are still there. It will be interesting to see what happens with them.
First day of college successfully completed. I think I must be crazy. I'm a full time student, a part time worker, and a full time Marijuana-ist! Kind of cool though because I'm going for a 2 year degree in Horticulture Technology. I am just interested in growing all-around!
On a side note, maybe we should start a Deep Water Culture Q&A Thread just dedicated to questions and answers? That way we could all hang out here, and converse about all of our opinions and ideas, while having a thread we could easily check up on because it was solely Q&A? Just a thought.
A few pictures of my current grow.
These are really sturdy plants, Seems like I have been in the hospital more than at home, and they seem to be doing pretty well!
My THC Bombs have been in veg wayyy too long, but there is nowhere for them to go until the girls in flower finish up!
Both closets are about out of room, so I am tying up, tying down, bending and doing whatever I can to make it to the finish. (When I am home) Lots & lots of buds are growing
Just thought an update was way overdue.

Roseman what do you think of my grow? Am I improving? What about the curled leaves?
Should I add 12 teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide or something??
Also if I remember from your journal, you are using organic nutes??? There is some debate on the effects of H2O2 and organic nutes,(depending on who you read on here - Roseman told me H2O2 is bad for organic nutes), so I wouldn't add any more nutes back in until you do another res change.
Ahhhhhh !!!!! Brown Slime Algae. It's a monster.
How far along are you? What week? flower or veg? nutes? Water temp? Room temp?
We'll get it taken care of. I had my battle with BSA before. It's a tough bastard, but you'll still get quality smoke. Answer those questions, let me round up my info, and go from there!
You can also PM me. I read those asap.
Organic nutes? Which ones?
Yes, I am a firm believer that organics and DWC don't mix. Not that it is impossible (nothing is) but it makes it that much more difficult.
Blitty - lets get this taken care of. Let me know whats up.
The only time using H2O2 is bad for any garden organic,inorganic,mixed regimen is that it will kill your beneficial bacteria and fungus that most garderners try to keep alive in their rez and at the grow medium. If you have more of those beneficials such as Piranha,Tarantula, or Voodoo Juice then you can just flush with PH corrected water at between 5 to 35% hydrogen peroxide for several hours, drain the rez and refill with normal nutes give 24 hours for any risidual proxide to break down and then just readd your beneficials.Thank you both...appreciate the encouragement!

If anyone wants the details on a bio reactor I can give ya the basics on mine, came up with the premise for saving on beneficials through a home made bio reactor on my own but i am surely not the first. =)
Anyway... I got some info for you to read... but its a lot. I'll try PM. Give me a little bit.
Oh yeah I believe in a mixed regimen you can use the Sensi 2 part or Coniseur lines and really its about 85% organic and 15% inorganic. I find a nice medium between quick up take and long term feeding when using these lines, I have also had excellent results with the 100% Organic AN line but would still recommend Big Bud Supplements as well as overdrive but big bud is not 100% organic and overdrive is close but still not 100%.I don't know all the organic nutes, but I was considering using Botanicare ProGrow and ProBloom which are organic and that's when I started researching the effects of H2O2. I have found that if you want to you can use products like hydrozyme (sp?) or cannazyme or something similar if you don't want to use H2O2. It appears you can also still use H2O2 for root rot but you shouldn't add organic nutes back in until after you do another res change.
(*edit thanks Cafghanica forgot about sensizym - wow you type way faster than me!)
I don't have any personal experience with this yet, but it's what I have been told by people I trust.
I do know of some Deep Water Culture using organic nutes with great success.
