Wet Rock: a journey to the Darkside

[Rock.Steady]

ironically, i was thinking about the 'splash factor' recently and have a question.

what about having a layer of media over the ring?

the ring kinda, slightly buried.

is that allowed? a bad idea?

You are the only one in the world who would ask that question Rock.......seriously......I've never heard or thought about it myself.

DONT!! I have a feeling the issue would something about oxygenation and perhaps Rhizome could explain the why's and wheres. So no.

But....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for asking and not just "trying it and seeing" I consider that a HUGE step forward. :thumbsup:

[Rock.Steady]

ok, gotcha.

i think i should have 1 or both setups running test-water by tomorow night.

hey rock wsup. I wanted to stop by and wanted to wish U good luck on getting UR hydro system up and running.

and as for my DRO plants they have around 2 more months to go.
and they R 3 weeks flower but there flowers look like suger dipped buds this soon.:jointsmile: :stoned: :stoned: :hippy:
I can't wate to harvest these.


and once U do get the hang of growing hydroponicly it is fun as hell and faster. in my opion.

and I'll smoke a bowl to celebrate the fact that U can do this cuz we all here at canna com have fath in U and all dro growers on here that they can grow there dizzy flowers H-ponicly.

my 2 cents.:thumbsup:

Good thread. Just remember to follow your coach. And there is only room for one COACH on this team.

Can't wait to see the posts. If I have suggestions I'll post them here for Coach Hound to review and approve if appropriate...

ok, been about another week, and i want to check in.

1- hydroton did submit and ph stopped climbing.
its possible part of the problem was that i didnt change the water, just let it sit and sit. kept correcting, but it still climbed.

i have sprouted 2 more SNLxNH beans and had them in these grodan's plugs for a few days.

i have made personal decision that i need more verticle space in flower. so, the veg bunker had to relocate. i am going with a semi-verticle veg cab.

so, welcome to the new veg locker.

these are the 2 SNL's. i still need another pump, tomorow.

WH, you said better to get them in early and hand water if needed.
ok, thats what im doin,
these are ready.
the plugs stay wet a long time.

ok, comments?

They are so CUTE!!! Put them in gently....I take a cup of water (from one of the buckets) and keep it sitting with them....drip water VERY CAREFULLY (after checking ph) on the little plugs. You may only have to water once a day for a few days. It's VERY wise to check and adjust ph any and every time you add something to the plants...even that cup of water that you know the ph was correct on before. Just don't let the plugs completely dry out. You won't have to use the drip ring for several days.

Your drip ring setup looks good. Good work there. How tall is your flowering space?
