Virgin Ground And The Little Star Asterion

Ok. Done screaming into my pillow...mostly swearing. LOl. Doing this now:blunt:

Anyone have a better chart? Shall I try the other one I posted? Things look correct on there?

We had a good breakthrough here people. Go team! :rofl::rofl:
 
think i'm going hunting on the zon for that RO buddy. if the filters are standard size, that would make it one tempting unit.

i use the first one. the multi colored one... just cause it's pretty..

seriously tho, the hydro side on the first looks like the ones i am most familiar with.

Bluter, I have been keeping fish for quite awhile. Those little units have great reviews. They work well enough for expensive fish and aquatic plants. You'll probably find more fish reviewers than cannabis growers. But many,many of my aquatic brethren use them.

I don't know about the size.
 
Chill!!!!!!!!

Lol

As long as yer pH is in the area needed, it will be fine

Even at 6.2 or so won't hurt her

Like Penny said, chasing numbers can be a never ending battle

5.0 is too low
7.5 is high

5.6-6.3 is fine.

I never really chase my pH. Even in my DWC I'm not really diligent about it, but never really see issues because of it
 
I'm chilled. Cannabis is a glorious thing.... :love:
 
I'm just a bit confused and very stoned.......mmmm, cupcakes. Brb.
 
A member asked about my journal name , more specifically what the term Asterion means.
So, for those who care...
“Cultivated hemp. Cannabis (some call it Cannabion, some Schoinstrophon, some Asterion) is a plant of much use in this life for the twisting of very strong ropes. It bears leaves like to the Ash, of a bad scent, long stalks, empty, a round seed, which being eaten of much doth quench geniture, but being juiced when green is good for pain of the ears.” (Russo, E.B., MD. Cannabis and Cannabinoids: Pharmacology, Toxicology, and Therapeutic Potential)
“Pausanias continues that above the Argive Heraion flowed the river Asterion, on whose banks grew the asterion plant. The vines and leaves were woven into garlands for the statue of Hera, and the plant was made an offering to Her. Asterion was one of the ancient names for cannabis, according to the first century C.E. Greek physician named Dioscurides.” (Rigoglioso, M. The Cult of Divine Birth in Ancient Greece)

....so there you have it.
 
Nice, that would be a cool name.

the calcium plot on that chart looks sorta like soil range to me ?? a bit odd...







err, like 4 times the price here..

are the sediment and RO filters replaceable on that unit chris ?

i have an older hydrologic, and want to get a second RO filter for my other space. when i looked at the new hydrologics, the RO filters were all in a sealed capsule, and not replaceable. the shop told me the whole unit was designed to be tossed after two yrs, and would require purchasing a brand new one.


if i get another unit i want the filters to be replaceable.

Yes they are

When I THOUGHT I was having DWC goopies issues, well I was but it was light going through the lids.... freaking idiot...lol
I swapped the filters, like $8 each I think
But honestly I didn't need to yet

It's a great little system for the $$$

I rarely water with ro water, I do use the ro membrane reject water to water plants with because it's chloramine free. My RO reject water is less than 26ppm usually.

Not to point fingers, but if your exit water is anything above 0ppm, you might want to reconsider the filters are not doing their job.

I run a 1 pre 1m-2 carbon ge 1m - 2 ro (less waste) - 2 MIXED BED di. 2 years on a filter change with 0ppm the entire time. This is reagent water for fishtanks, not for growing.

Hard water might not be friendly on an RO. If there is any co2 in that water your going to eat carbon and RO membranes.

I know of people on well water with excessive hardness and co2 who run their water through multiple big DI membranes before running it through their 1-1-1-2 system.

Not sure exactly what yer saying

My tap is 550ppm, so getting it to 26 is almost perfect

Great buy for $52
 
How long do people typically leave their training restraints on their plants? Just through stretch?
 
I'm not sure if I'm understanding that ? correctly. I don't think you want them tied down during stretch. Part of the stretch is to let them, well, stretch.
With a quad, you train until you get the branches to the outside of the pot them let them go up, trying to get an even canopy before that.
 
They are only at the bottom of the plant.
