That does sound good......I'd stick some nutes in.....adjust the ph to 5-6 and run it through your system and see if it stays around the level you want. If yes.....THEN good to go...:thumbsup:

I read somewhere that nutes shouldn't be added until after the plants have been growing a week or two. I am planning on filling the res with the pHed water tonight while soaking the hydroton and rockwool in pHed water through the night and then run the entire system all together through the day tomorrow.
Should I start off using weak nutes or none at all until they get a couple sets of leaves?
I've had better results with seedlings using no nutes at the start....just the ph'd water and a drop of Superthrive for the first week or two depending on how fast they grow...then 1/4 strength nutes to start them off.
Good for you to run the system for a period of time first....by the time you get your plants in there you'll already have the whole thing down. :)
Is it just me, or did anyone else notice how Weedhound just kinda glossed over her dire predictions of yesterday:question:
...must have been her cute little dawg logging in under her username and writing that stuff. :lol5:
PC :rolleyes:
my dire predictions? which ones? I knew ALL ABOUT OJ robbing that guy.....:D
I just checked it after 22 hours and it crept up a little to around 6-6.5. Just wanted to thank everyone for all the help and apologize for the bullshit!
That's ok, around here we just compost the bullshit and give it to Stinky. She grows in it.
Anyhoo, you've probably got a lot better handle on pH by now and you can see that it's nothing to stress about; it's just one of those things you have to monitor and keep on top of.
Now go grow some plants! :thumbsup:
