New to hydro, looking for tips from experienced hydro.
based on the CFL lighting I am getting the impression that you are doing this on a budget.
Growing on a budget isnt easy, and it gets significantly more difficult when growing in a hydro set-up.
Do yourself a favor and dont begin this set-up until you get a pH meter that works well, and a PPM/EC meter. Test strips and Hanna products dont count
The other thing you want is at least a 400w grow light if you can only afford 1 get the HPS.
And... for the love of all hydro set-ups, keep your tubes and res. light proof. a little light makes for huge problems.
Use chemical nutes in hydro. I have done organic and chem nutes in hydro and organic hydro is a major headache.
Just stick to the chem nutes and constantly check your pH and PPM.
...Oh yeah, read books lots of them, and dont be afraid to ask questions.
hope this helps your grow, I know it didnt help your budget.If I pollinate a plant in the corner of my basement, does that make me a breeder?:i feel stupid:
If you have questions, feel free to message me. The more successful growers there are out there, the better this world is!:thumbsup:
