Hi everybody, and thanks for the open forum!
I'm growing a single plant for fun and experimentation. I'm using a method I found on YouTube known as a 5 gal. Bucket Aeroponic System.
My questions involve recommended nutrients/Dosages and frequency of cycling out water from the bucket.
I grow other kinds of plants and I have a decent knowledge of everything else.
Any takers on this thread?

Not sure about how often to cycle out the water...I grow hydro with 30 gallons of nute solution and rarely ever have to change my water...unless I make a mistake..lol.
As for feeding, I use GH maxigrow and maxibloom, and I don't feed until the plants are 2-3 weeks old, depending on size and health. Then I start them on about 1/8 strength, and increase the ppms each week as the plants get bigger until they are at about 3/4 strength...I use a $12 digital ppm meter and it takes all the guesswork out..
A lot of guys start at 1/4 strength, but I've had babies burn at that strength.
Good luck!!!!!
