underground watercooling advise needed I am currently using ice boxes to cool my lights, I already have one chiller In my basement and my basement is now 75, so I can not put another chiller in because it would be inefficient since the room its In is already so hot. So now I want to store...

I'm using ice boxes to cool my lights and I ak currectig using a submersible pump to move the water through the system. The submersible pump is warming the water and making the chiller less efficient. I need an inline pump that I van locate away from the water tank, it needs to be 1800-2100...

I got four and ill be using the horti mh blue and the super hps, I'm gonna fire it up in about 2 weeks, ill let you know.

Don't forget that the time it takes roots to develop also has a lot to do with the strain, some take longer than others. Anyone having problems with heat and/or slime I would suggest using a compost tea, such as Ewc tea. I use ancient forest by gh with molasses and root excel. Loads the ez...

Found these online, any thoughts?

Messed this post up, If a mod could delete it I would appreciate it.

What's your well water pH and ec/tds before any adjutments? Maybe a good deal of calcium in there driving up the ph? after pH adjusting your water do you let it bubble or even just let it sit? I've noticed that water pH straight from the faucet tends to rise over 24 hrs in my experience...

If all else fails, try ewc tea. It allows the res temps to get hot and prevents the dreaded slime. I just got slimed, I'm gunna try to cycle my pump 30/30 with some KLN and PROTEKT and see if that works, if not I'm mixing the tea. For the recipe for the tea check out my "city water in ez...

Just curious seamaiden, what medium are you in and what do you feed with? What are you using to bring down your pH?

This is what I have read from lucas. I remember reading before that it depends on what nutrients are up taken from the plant and what is left over is where your soil ph will come from, from what i have read most nutrient profiles tend to lower. If I'm not mistaken, beneficials drive your ph...

Here isbthe ewc tea recipe from "richyrich" on ICMAG.COM (he started the idea of Ewc tea in the cloner) Use Physan20 at 1mL per 10 gallons to sterilize and clean. Apply EWC Tea at 2-3 cups per 10 gallons. 4 gallons of RO water or bubbled tap (for 24 hours) in a 5 gallon bucket. One...

determining your ph for soil I would like to discuss soil Ph. I believe that the reason soil Ph is "recommended" at a high Ph for ideal uptake is that the medium is drying out between waterings which is lowering the ph. Now why does the Ph lower as the nutrient solution in the rootzone...

Hey wonka what is your water temp at? I'm wondering if i cycle 30/30 my pump if I can get my water temp to 72. My room is currently 78. Now i got the slime once, if my water stays or gets above 72, I'm most likely going to see slime again since the water cant hold enough oxygen to make the...

Found the black strap at the grocery store. I'm going to remove the air lines that came with the unit and replace with air diffusers. I am going to try to do the ewc tea and hopefully that solves the slime. I would like to try running the pump 30 on 30 off but i'm afraid that the slime could...

just did a lot of reading on the ewc, definately going to go that route first. The slime problem is apparently originated from my tap water. I was going to get a chiller until i read some of the slime thread on ICMAG.com, and someone tried a chiller and got the slime again...no need to waste...

Here's how I cleaned my ez cloner for anyone interested, First I dumped all the contaminated (slime) water and added tap water until it was about 2" from over filling, then I added 3 cups of bleach (i have the 120 unit). I unscrewed all the sprayers and let them sit in the bottom of the...

Yea I recall you saying that, the instructions stated that the pump is made to run continously and it is bad to cycle it. How long have you been running your pump this way? A replacement pump is much cheaper than a chiller I suppose. How long are yours taking to develop a good root mass and...

I emptied the cloner today, got the bleach running in the system now. Either I did not have the system completely clean to begin with or my water temps were too hot. So after I get everything set up I am going to run the system and see what the temp is in my grow tent, if its too hot i'll...

Here is the link to a manual created by the creator of the ez-cloner http://www.ezclone.com/media/docs/cloning-manual.pdf

Thanks for the help wonka, I did some research sounds like the slime is some sort of living organism. When i get home from work I will dump the cloner, fill with tap and bleach and run for 2 hrs as you said. Then dump, fill with tap and run for 2 more hours then dump. Then fill with tap and...
