Indoor Auto-Heaven w/LED's

[Autonugs]

I'm hoping . I've seen many people do it @loopy looper does such with great success so it's all trial and error I will try DWC and I'll start with an individual bucket system to get my feet wet. I've read a little bit about it and heard that most use Hydroguard and that helps with most of the issues.....

When you are ready to try hydro, I recommend FloraNova or Maxi Series by General Hydroponics. They are fully complete two part formulas. They have all necessary micros, secondary, and primary nutrients. They also have ph buffers to make it easier for use with tap water. They produce as well as anything out there. Cost is not bad for either, too.

Maybe 3-5 months when I go hydro I'll tag you in it.

Let me know, I will be around.

I'm so excited for people who are willing to give this a try! Killer growth can't be beat guys! Mad love much respect and I'll be keeping an eye..
And as far as water level goes as long as you have plenty of air billowing through a stone, it should provide ample enough bubbles for the distributing of nutrients to the upper roots. I somewhat try to maintain about an inch up my 6 inch net pots

I'm thinking about trying a smaller 3.5gallon system first

Here she is today she got her last day of feed today.... Will start flush tomorrow night will flush with ~10 gallons then ~2 with calmag

Just remember the smaller the system, the more, and faster it swings. That goes for EC/TDS level, ph, and temp. If it reduces by say half in a day, the TDS level has just doubled, and the ph will most likely be too low now.

Damn you maybe I'll try 5 gallon then. I was going to use an nutes pH perfect I've heard it can last 4-5 days steady...

I am not the one to ask about AN, I do not use them. They are not my favorite brand, at all. Many love and swear by them, I just am not one.

Ph is based on lots of different things. Temp, water usage, water source, fertilizers and additvies, etc. It is more about what you use as ph down and up. It you use something strong like phosphoric acid, the ph stays much more stable. If you use just plain white vinegar, it will climb much faster.
Ph is not hard to control. It is just something to be aware of.
