thanks a lot. I've put the last year into Research and Development.

but ya I just buy the .5 cu ft bags at home depot.
There is a lot of red mud that washes out but its all faily simple to wash.

the trick is to get a laundry hamper with slits on the sides and then punch a bunch of holes in the bottom.
you have to shake 1 bag of lava rock around in there while washing it with water. all the small stuff will fall through, and you don't want that you want the big chunks for the most part

filled a trash bag and a 5 gallon bucket. Not much noticable difference in the canopy but the light penetration is up ten fold.

i just topped my moms and i have too many i think im going to flower those bitches next week. put some of those trellis things on top and make them scrog. 4 under a light and train them while they stretch.

Sick Bubblers!!! Im a big fan of bubblers i own like 5, one is a 400 but the others are all like 100. Plants are looking amazing, im going to try and mimic your room for my next grow, i love how clean and simple it is. One question i have, have you used the hydron balls? Do you like the lava rock more? Cheaper? Easier? Just wounderin why you picked it over the balls. Thanks Man! Its lookin like you'll be sittin pretty well here real soon!

grow is bangin bro...

Those pieces are sick, never seen anything like it to be honest. Your buddy has some serious talents. I have seen some glass being blown on TV and these guys have some serious skill.

hydroton is actually entirely to much medium. lava rock is extremely porous therefore there is more room for water to fill within the lavarock.

Don't get me wrong some liquid can pass through hydroton but not nearly enough. I did a run earlier this year and all I got was a bunch of root rot because the water couldn't flow fast enough through the buckets, because there wasn't enough room for it or the roots feel me.
