Wal-Mart.......Gen. Purpose soil is Crapoola' within I have found .....Drywall,plastic garbage bag pieces,Railroad ties(Smelled of creosote), shredded plastic pieces (clear) to name a few.....I went to a clients house to see his 6 month old plants under a 1000 MH in this soil .......I was expecting to see some lil' trees.....some were only 6" tall some were a foot......we pulled them out of the nasty crap and put them in a mix of 25% Perlite 25%Vermiculite some Castings some peat and some Compost .....when we pulled them out of that crap the biggest root ball was the size of a baseball.....20 some days later we went to flower some of them were 3 feet tall and looked like bushes......they turned out to be "Blueberry".....and he almost killed them with that dirt

Goto the Depot and get a small 200Gallon per hour pump or whatever is smallest.

Get 3-5gallon bucket.

1/2 PVC pole(or depending on what size the your pump requires. mine was 1/2 in)

some pvc T's

some pvc 90degree elbows

a small piece of vinyl tubing

and some neoprene pipe insulation

and some Misters

Vioula(sp?) you got a wanna be AeroCloner

this is exactly what i plan on building, just wiating for my 3" baskets to get here (or 2.5", dont rember what i ordered) honestly the dirt is just to get these fuckers out of germination mode, i left one in the mirical grow soil and 5 in the walmart crap soil.. I just want to see that first leaf set so I can move them to a mist set up

i'm building the mother room/ Clone room today, I think i'll go with a wide short rubbermade for my mistercloner & run strait water while i'm cloning.. taking some measurements now and planning my next lowe's trip

I've obviously failed twice at buying soil, are there any easily gotten brands that are good? anyone heard of that black gold stuff?


BTW, these will eventualy be grown in 5gal bucket bubblers ( 1 plant per bucket) this is NOT a soil grow.

I think Shultz has some good unferted soil(i remember looking around the DePot

for good soil). Also check in your phonebook man, you never know, you might have

a Hydro shop nestled in somewhere.

yeah def think about what your gonna do first and what you need.

I always end up just goin and trying to figure out what i need while I'm there and always end up forgettin stuff. . .

That Cloner i build cost a whopping under $30. Woulda been less but the EcoPlus

185 for $9.99 was sold out at the Dro store. Had to get the 265 for $20.

Minus nutes. . . . .thats all you need.

You should go Hydro, all you need is the nutes. You can build everything else

with those 2 stores you mention above.

ohhh yes..they will be SUPER SCROGGED! hehe

I got everything for the clone box except for misters,, everywhere i went they looked at me like i was crazy.. oh well, online ordering time
+ weee!
I've got a 6" and a 4" fan on the way, if i need more i'll get more (i think im going to end up getting more) but they ARENT elicent fans, those are a bit to $$$ for my tastes. i got some cheaper ones, but i think i'll be ok. the ambiant temp is never over 70ish F so i'll just make sure my lights dont heat the room up too much and keep the air cycling through at a constant pace, not even going with a temp switch anymore either. (this all could change of course)

GET THE PLASTIC OFF THE CUPS.

Your killing the sprouts, the plastic is only until the sprout breaks the soil.

MJ needs air !!!
thats why your sprouts are all brown.....

and lower the lights another inch or two.
