Water issue

[Sour D]

I live stream the races. We have a bike race coming up in Oct. I'll send you a link when it gets closer.
My first grow sits over the toilet. The track restrooms are about 50' away. I've got a closet in the bedroom that has held clothes I haven't worn in years--it's becoming growroom 2

You're welcome buddy!

Take a look at Biotabs if you're interested in going natural and keeping it simple. It's like organics ... without the necessary knowledge of how to make a good soil.
Saves me about 100 hours a grow ...
Autopots aswell ... If you can get a plant to 20 days and it looks good, an autopot can take care of the rest!

For me .. Coco will almost certainly yeild better under optimum conditions and care .... but ... the extra time i spend mixing nutes and checking EC and PH ... Just doesn't stack up!

So if you have the time and desire - Coco can work wonders! ... But if you really can't be bothered with all that ... Soil and autopots with biotbabs and some minimal extras will get great results.
I've not used a meter of any kind in about 6 months .. maybe a year!

Which ever way you go - have fun! There'll be plenty of people here to help along the way!

My journal "first grow in 40 years" actually only made it 1/2 way b4 it got busted but what was cool about it was we had these huge water columns that we had carp and water lilies in. In the winter the columns provided heat for the grow house. The fish ate the plants and created nutrients for the veggies and weed via plumbing system. I would think you could do this with an aquarium. A little more info: https://extension.oregonstate.edu/news/transform-fish-waste-food-aquaponics-garden

Pretty common actually, called aquaponics. There's a medical grow in Oklahoma that is all aquaponics. Tallapia fish I believe.
