Like I told you in your other thread, you can't treat a hempy like a soil grow. It's hydro so the roots don't need all the space in a 5 gallon bucket, your using way more nutes that needed and you added another 6" or so that the roots need to go before they reach the res so that's going to slow you down, you've lost another 6" or so in head room, and you bought $5 lowes buckets instead of $1 for a 3.5 gallon dollar store buckets. Why ask for advice and then not use it? It's your grow tho so il stop ranting and let you do it your way. Good growing
Jbone77 Reviewed by Jbone77 on . is a blue Lowe's bucket ok for hempy? What I mean, is it dark enough to prevent algae from growing? Also, do you recommend straight perlite or perlite and vermiculite in a 3 to 1 ratio? Rating: 5
