I'm doing a grow and have floranova grow/bloom and I have ph up/down what else should I have ? I'm looking for anything I may need so I can order the rest of my supplies. I've been being patient and ordering everything I need slowly and won't start growing till I have everything. I used to have salt water fish tanks and am pretty good with water I just don't know enough about all the nutrients and stuff. I will be doing a grow journal as soon as I'm up and running. I will be running 2-4 5 gallon buckets with a scrog in a 4+4 tent with a 1200 watt led Also have a mother tent with a 300 watt led Thanks in advance And toke on
you need... Container with lid Air pump Air lines Air stones PH up PH down PH meter EC meter Complete and balanced nutrient Clay balls Net pot Aquarium thermometer Water
I have all that stuff except I have a tds meter and I don't have a aquarium heater ... Will I need the heater for single DWC buckets ? I was meaning any supplements / pest control other than floranova grow/bloom and ph up/down
Here's a complete list of what I have so far Net pot lids 5 gallon buckets 1 big air pump with a 6 way adjustable splitter Clay balls Tds/ph meter / temp meter Mother tent with a 300 watt mars hydro led Flower tent 4/4/8 with a 1200 watt Mars hydro led 3 hydrometers 2 10" wall mount fans 2 6" clip on fans 8" 450 inline fan 8" carbon filter All the hoses and tubing needed Calibration fluid Ph strips to use in conjunction And other stuff I think I'm forgetting lol
an EC meter is a tds meter. You are unlikely to need an aquarium heater. Unless you are growing in a very cold basement or something like that. The list I gave you is all you need
is sounds like you have a quality set up. What 'litre per minute' is your air pump pushing out? You need around 1 litre of air per minute for every 2 litres of nutrient solution. Using less lowers yield and raises the risk of root rot
700GPH, assuming that's a US gallon. Is 44LPM. So would be good for up to about 88 litres or 23 US gallons
Thanks I was gonna do 4 five gallon buckets so I guess I'll have to get a bigger one, is there one you'd suggest that can run 4 five gallon buckets for plants and another five gallon bucket for water/nutrients ? So one pump for 5 - 5gallon buckets or should I just buy another one ? I'd rather run one bigger air pump than multiple ones tbh ... I bought 3 hydrometers thinking I needed one for outside the tents but now I realize that the ones I bought will read inside the tent via probe and outside the tent via the unit itself ...
Is this one good enough ? It says 110 LPM I definitely want good air flow for healthy roots and I don't care about price ...
Do you mean hygrometers perhaps? Hydrometers measure the density of liquids, hygrometers measure relative humidity
