Ok great question where does the water pump go in the grow tote or in the res outside the tent and does pump circulate water through whole system so i would only have to deal with res for adjusting nutes or water changing the res each week or do you not change the res and just add more nutes as needed?
Also is this a good deal for tve three items pictured?

If you can go to the top of my thread, you can see a diagram and pictures of how I have it laid out. It’s pretty simple. :+1:t2::v::sunglasses:

Nugs or anyone, can you help me on ph and cal mag for seedlings? I’m going to add nutes on Sunday and I didn’t start with much help at this stage of development. I didn’t have cal mag then added that later because of nugs and I wasn’t even measuring ph then.

@NUG61 this will notify

I go 5 - 5.85 ph for seedlings… no nutes the first week, then maybe 100 ppm on the cal.mag to start.

Nugs i said cal mag, I was actually thinking hydroguard. I went out and looked at all I had. I believe you said you use hydroguard a lot.

Yes I believe it’s 2 ml per gallon and you add that after you mix all of your nutes otherwise it will kill the microbes if you mix it first.

Do you start with the Lucas calculator as soon as you start with nutes?

So i am just starting to add food this week. Today starts week 3 of growth above ground. So ppm target will be about 350ppm. So i will add 100ppm cal mag and then use calc to get to 350. Im fixing to do it now, just got home from work. I will post what i do on my journal in a bit.:sunglasses:

Aaaah NUG61 See theres something i didnt know. I was adding my hydrogaurd before i added my nutes, so i should add nutes to water mix well and then the hydrogaurd after i put nutes in tote? Also thinking of switching nutes AN ph perfect are fine just so much mixing , need something easier, suggestions? I know a lot of people use jacks just 2 nutes to mix and done
