Looking great in that next round! You're gonna need another layer of screen in there maybe, girls are reaching for the sky. Still running Mills or you swap over to my recipe already?

Good question, two part answer. First off, coco coir is fantastic as a long term media in a constant growing environment such as cut flower Rose production. In that system, basket or trough planted perennial rose plants are able to be grown in good condition without any yield loss for up to 7...

Thats correct, but remember that this recipe is a little less about PPM and a bit more about ratios between inputs. In veg I run the same input ratios, but cut the strength down to 70-80% by diluting with more water, and in bloom I tweak the levels of Nitrogen or Potassium or the ratio between...

The micros will mix in just fine with any other component, even in high concentration, but it is always best to avoid any scenario where solubility is even in question, and reduced solubility could potentially lead to residues clogging filters or lines, which is never good. As for what I was...

Sounds good! Don't be scared of salts! If you are making concentrate tanks for dosatron delivery, I recommend dissolving the full amount of salts needed for the big tank into a smaller more shakeable container to begin with, so you dont have salt on the bottom of a big tank that's tough to mix...

Still running that same formula, couple minor tweaks of each component up and down depending on strain or cycle needs, but always using that as the base to start from. Recent photos from the commercial garden I was putting this formula to the test in for the last year are on my IG: @uglybud...

Stoked to see you doing such big things Confuten!! Best of luck moving forward

Np buddy Good point, and it makes me so happy to hear people using these soil science terms with true respect to their very specfic definitions, I will have to be more careful which words I choose. I mean't the zone between saturated and field capacity 24/7 is problematic, it is proper to...

Roots only grow due to cell expansion (obviously cell division occurs in the root meristem, but the visible root size increase we see is due to cell expansion after new cells are divided). Cell expansion only occurs due to increasing the water content in the cell, like filling up a chain of...

Very kind words, thank you WG! Right on. Thanks for getting the answer posted for me GL, obviously my response here would not have been very timely for him. Depending on how much you're buying and who you know, the range I've seen is $500-3200/lb of indoor, generally in the 2000-2600 range...

Hey DH, it seems as if you have a strong attraction to this company Hydroponic-Research, and I'm not exactly sure why. Their prices for everything are through the roof and they don't seem to be doing anything revolutionary. This FWOK media is nothing new, its just been renamed and marketed to...

Hey Dr.KB! I don't know of many greenhouse operations reusing their coco in between crops, like from one crop cycle to another replanting, but if they did they would certainly be steam sterilizing it before every reuse, since most growers steam sterilize their substrate before its first use...

Hey Soser, good to hear from you! Yep, I'm up in Washington state and moving into a new house next month. My plan is to do a medium sized medical grow to pay the bills while I find a company on the recreational production side of things that I would enjoy working with. I haven't had a chance...

Haha, my bad for not getting back to you right away before you picked up something else, This log had been kind of dead for a few months so I wasn't checking for notifications on a daily basis. All I can say about the company/product you just mentioned (Hydro Research V+B Dirty) is that the...

I'm so glad to hear you got so much out of the log DH, sometimes I wondered if it had fallen too deep in the list to be found by new readers, I'm happy that's not the case yet! Don't miss my other previous logs if you haven't already checked them out, especially my first WiFi log, since it...
