Grow Mediums New to dwc need help asap !!

CAM01160.jpgHere is a pic of my Opium plant which has been on 12/12 for about 2 wks now . She is in soil and has been so easy to grow . She is in my flower box with a 400 watt hps . Im currently still feeding her vegg nutes until about week 3 and then i will flush and start bloom nutes .

She will be on the fox farms nutes they hv worked best for me so far , but not as good in hydro the big bloon is a mess on roots . Thats what i was using in my first , first attempt at dwc and dnt go so good either lol .

But i wasnt doing a journal and dnt hv u guys with me !!!

But now i do and i just no its gonna come out all good !!
 
One more question guys whats the purpose for this and when to use it CAM01161.jpg
 
Ok thanks Grey bear . I just wanted to ask cause i dnt wanna add to much to the rez at such a young phase for my plants .

I just want to keep it simple as i can

I see you have a real interest on being really efficient with the stuff you have. I like that. Personally I always just pour the solution out after use but I try to use as little as possible. Tiny zipbags works really well, you can put a little to the corner and insert the probe there. Technically speaking, if both the container you pour the liquid in and the probe is absolutely clean, then the solution would be reusable since there is no contamination.

In reality I would imagine there is a slight contamination but not that much that it would affect the reading all that much. One idea would be to start storing the used solution to separate container and once you have plenty of it just try it out.
 
Yeah RE is a little pricey. I buy it from Amazon cause my buddy don't sell H&G at his shop. You can use it with any grow style.. bottle says 1.1ml per gallon but in highly aerated systems you shouldn't go over .5ml gallon. I haven't tried rhizotonic yet I am using canna base and cannazyme and soon switching to all canna but ad I said you can use it with anything. I paid 120 for a 500ml bottle but when you consider it making 1000 gallons it's a small price to pay for what it does. And combined with voodoo juice it's even better. I'll see if I can find my pictures of the roots when I grew 2 strawberry cough one with RE and one without. Roots were so dance in a 2 gallon pot that when I pulled them out to transplant you can't see any soil just white fuzzy roots. Sorry lol not trying to promote product just highly recommend it to anyone....
 
Ya medgrower i try to b very efficient as i can cause i dnt wanna make any mistakes lol , my wife says i hv ocd , but i dnt think so . But ya i just try to learn stuff the right way so i can spread the right knowledge if need be .

And thanks think diffrent i no u nt tryna promote any thing u just giving me ya honest opinion and looking at your grows i cant help but to believe u the proof is in the pudding lol .

And i will hv an update later when i gt off , but i do hv new white roots coming out the net pot , so thats good
 
One more thing guys is i hv a bottle of hygrozeme . I hv asked people what the use for this is and i gt mixed answers . I was under the impression that its used to clean your buckets and equipment .
