    Growing grass, blowing glass and kicking ass man. Sitting on a nice stash with crops in and on the way. Going get a new garage/shop/glass blowing shop set up. I got the wife started in glass work. I planted a 5 in one apple tree the other day. Kids are good,animals healthy and happy.
     
    Yea man , flow and grow will free up a bunch of time, its perfect. Add a nutrient computer with a distributor and a CO2 generator and all you would have to do after planting is some training and haul the lights up. :)
     
    Its outdoor season so I have most of mine in the ground now. :D

    The plants die tomorrow , there just cant be a bigger load of buds. This grow was easy and the lights performed excellent.
     
    I will get a video of them, some fine kush gone crazy. :D
     
    The wife made some flowers and little monster heads and mushroom shaped doodads.
     
    Today is my birthday, Im 47, feeling very old. Hope to get lots of glass time in this summer and just lay low.

    It's only $500?!?!?
    Wow.
    What nutrients are you using?

    I wish I wasn't scared of Hydro bahahaha
    I'd pick one up ASAP.
     
    Hmm...guess I could do Lucas Formula
     
  12. #272 snoopdog6502, May 18, 2015
    We ran general hydroponics floronova to flower.
     
    Yea the flow and grow is foolproof.
     
  13. #273 GoldGrower, May 18, 2015
     
    What are you scared of exactly? I wouldn't recommend the Lucas formula. For radios of nutes I'd use the manufacturer's recommendation and for the concentration just keep the TDS stable by adding water or nutes to adjust it. It's way easier and way less work than soil

    I always expect things to be 100x more complicated than they turn out to be. I will most likely be trying a few plants in hydro next run

    Hydro is so much easier to analyze (and correct) than other mediums
     
    A lot depends on how many plants you plan to grow
     
    I only grow ~ 4 plants at a time. I change my nutes  ~ 14 days in early veg, and 7 days from then on. In between, I either top off with same ppm nutes, or just water
     
    Also, I flood a lot more often than 3-4xs per day, but my medium is fast draining

    Would probably just mess around with 2-4 hydro plants for the first run.

    Check out my thread for ideas

    Thanks for the ride-along, snoop! 
     
    I'm not sure if this is mentioned in another thread of yours, but how are you controlling the temp & humidity? 
     
    As well as regulating the temp of the water res? Or are you just letting it settle to whatever it settles to?

    Its a cool basement and stays pretty steady. Hydro keeps the humidity up some, the fans keep it down some. The lights keep it warm and cool air from outside keeps it from being too warm.
    Keeping the res on the basement floor keeps water temps down and the plants drink a lot so they get some cool fresh water regularly.
     
    All indoor is done for the summer It gets way too hot here, I will start getting clones going about late June to July for my fall indoor.

    Thanks for the reply. 
     
    I'm still contemplating between a flo & gro setup vs a DWC setup. With the DWC, I can easily DIY a setup, whereas I would probably opt for the same Titan Controls setup you have if I were to go flo & gro. Was there any reason that you went with your current setup opposed to a DWC?
