I've been recycling my coco and hydroton for years now. I see consistently good results, certainly nothing that shows build-up in my mix.

I don't know buddy I think I may have gotten some bad coco. I have been in chow for 2 years now and never had such shitty looking plants. I am feeding the same thing I have always fed for the most part. 1.8EC with a good formula. ALL my other plants look beautiful. Even others in different chow chow at another spot. My feed formula is the same everywhere, so I think it's the coco.

Curious as to what about the batch of coco it could be. If the EC is fine, that rules out an overly salty batch. Pretty sure it's not treated with any 'cides during treatment. So then what could it be I wonder?

What brand of hydroton are you using in your chow mix?

I believe it's hydrocorn? I can't remember.

What's wrong with reusing the substrate?

If we're using bennies especially, explain to me again why are we tossing a supposedly inert material?

Who's tossing what now ?

I have been reusing the same substrate for over a year. This new grow is all new substrate though. I plan to reuse.

Peeps be complainin' about getting salty coco, come to find out they throw theirs away every run?!

Aside from the cost savings, recycling means one less way for pests to get into my grow.

SO we are steadily making progress over here. Made my light fixtures to have a nice clean double stack, got all the cage on the ceiling, and setting up plumbing for the tanks now. The girls in veg are way past due to be moving in, but I think I have enough space to accommodate them. :)

Without bulbs they look like DIY biowaves. Ha. Great job and they look killer for their purposes.

[Chronic Monster]

way sick double stacks, and i cant wait see jks tubs in action!

 

[ttystikk]

That space is going to be the sickness; I'm ready for mind bending numbers, and I'm still not at all sure how one will walk around in there once it's full of plants. I'm looking forward to seeing the whole thing in action!

Good eye. It would certainly look like it. Might be a duct muffler though. Cant tell. Horrible eyes.
