Thanks Stinky. When I say resivoir I mean that's just where I hold the water and keep a circulation pump going in there. I use the following nutes:

Botanicare Pure Blend Pro
MOAB (During Bloom)
Hygrozime
Liquid Kharma.


I have friends that also hand water that hit 1.1-1.25 per light... unfortunately my numbers haven't been quite that high but it has worked out decent in the past.

I hope to set up a drip for my next cycle I just didn't get around to it this time... and I don't really mind giving them the water by hand.
razzapiggy Reviewed by razzapiggy on . Adding WaterNutes To Half Empty Resi = Bad? I water by hand and sometimes add water when I run low, and then put more nutes in accordingly because it makes things alot more convenient. I was told at the Hydro store that you are supposed to fill resi to desired amount, add nutrients, and then not add more water (besides the 4-5 gallon top off from the d\h) otherwise it kills some of the beneficial things for plants. Is this true? Do those of you who hand water use all the water completely, then re-fill it as needed? Is it really a Rating: 5
