I currently grow hydro (DWC) but is much more work than soil. I have grown soil before but this was before I really got really serious about growing and all the technical stuff involved in it. I was going to go soil this run but just wanted to know if i was going to lose quality/quanity/time...

I would like some facts and opinions of the pros and cons of Hydro v.s. Soil please and thank you.

he was saying that he grew that plant for 6 weeks under 24 hours of light and that the plant was showing pistols meaning maturity before starting the flowering cycle. I have never had a plant take that long to start showing once switched to 12/12 regardless of strain. some show faster than...

MY clones are doing great now since i flushed each solo cup with about a half gallon maybe slightly more of water. They are starting to grow now and are a nice green in color. I misted with a thrive alive solution also. I am going to wait a few more days to maybe a week to transplant back to...

Ya this was the first time i have used FFOF to put my newly rooted clones in and was worried at first because of the drooping and fast yellowing leaves because they didnt yellow or droop untill i put them in this soil and they looked as if they were about to die but once i flushed they started...

All my clones were completely green after a full set of roots but about 2 days or so after planting into FFOF soil all the leaves started turning yellow and tips were burning. I followed hushpuppys advice and they are doing much better now cuz before i flushed them they were looking very bad...

I was disapointed i did this because i have always had issues with cloning and after so many attempts trying different techniques i finally found a excellent cloning method that has gave me 100% success rate and now this happens. The plants i cut these from are now in 2nd week of flowering so do...

or do you think i could put sum of the FFOF soil in a strainer and flush it to reduce the nutes in it or will that not work?

I cut and successfully rooted 10 clones and transplanted to 16oz solo cups. Well they were real nice and green untill a few days later the leaves started turning yellow and at first didnt know why. Well i think i may have figured it out, the soil i put them in was FFOF and this soil has feed in...

mycorrhizae- is a beneficial soil fungus that facilitates the break down and transporting of nutrients to plants roots. It increases the availability of both the moisture and nutrients required for plant growth and connects many of the microbes in healthy soil to host plants.

this is the 2nd thread someone restarted after 7 years lol

thanks for the input here. I have been doing as everyone has explained but wanted to know what others do and works best for others.

When switching to flower do you start off with the flower nutes ppm where you left off with the vegs ppm or do you start over the ppms with the flower nutes? For example: at end of veg your ppms are 500. Do you feed your flower nutes at 500+ or start over at zero?

Ya i agree i wouldnt chance more than the one adjustment that you are already making especially since they are in flowering now.

If i am not mistaken that will be your best option without hurting your plants. I had to change a light cycle once before and I left them in a dark period for 24 hours and turned lights back on when the time i wanted came back around. IMO that is your best route without hurting or slowing the...

I figured as much but as long as the bloom bulbs will grow them for now until i can get some veg bulbs.

Today I bought 4 2ft. single bulb T5s to use for seedlings and clones. When I got there I realized he only had bloom bulbs with them and I am pretty sure I can use these to light my clones but am not a 100% sure so i figured I would ask you guys. I know the veg bulbs would work better but will...

I have seen them a few times before but only after I watered my soil plants. Look kind of like a knat or fruit fly but whatever it was it was attracted to the wet soil. When I had only hydro DWC buckets i never saw them but once I added a few soil plants in there I see them every once and...

:yeahthat:

I actually had a water temp issue at the begininning of my grow. They were in a room in my basement and was getting to cold down there and plants slowed down growing and eventually just came to a halt for almost a week. I then moved them upstairs to a warmer room and 2 days later when water...
