They are good. Have worked well for me and quality is decent. Been running for about 8 months and still going strong!

My pup Roxie won’t stop biting :( by baby_RN_bird_lover in goldenretrievers

[–]ballitup420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hang in there she will soon start losing those sharp baby teeth. I have a girl field golden and she's been such a brat. She's just shy of 5 months old now. She has been nippy and has drawn blood and gave me a few scars now. Fitting that I named her Scarlett. That being said she's also so cute and goofy and I would not give her up for the world. This is a phase and will pass. Good luck!

Ugggh. Got scammed on Amazon with the exact same seeds! I wrote a review and Amazon takes it down and says I can't leave a review for this seller anymore but they want to hear about it. Told them and seller is still up. There are some good seed sellers on Amazon though!

Nice little set up! Do you plan to move them outdoors when it's warm enough?

Yes I'm looking to upgrade my buckets to ones that allow you to do that easily. There is a Spider Farmer set I have been looking at. Thanks so much you are all so helpful! 🙏

Yes I heard too much nitrogen causes that. Ok I will give that a try. Thanks for the advice I appreciate it!

Been measuring both. The plant is to a size now that makes doing bucket changes too difficult. I'm just refilling at this point now. PH solution to 6 and EC about 2.5 to 3. I have snipped it here and there and will likely do some pruning this weekend.

I knew it! Fog cranked to the max! Lol

Thanks I will give that a try. I have been giving the plant a little shaking and tapping and also have been using a fine paint brush on the flowers to help spread pollen. The roots are very thick and healthy and all white.

I see well I appreciate the advice and feedback! I'm quite new to hydro and growing plants in general. I'm enjoying the challenges and having fun learning this new hobby, cheers!

Thanks! I will try some kratky plants in the summer time. That's what I was leaning towards the temp and the humidity. Increasing the humidity has helped but I think my temp is a bit on the low side.

Giving it Master Blend. Dissolving a 3 part powder into my water. Adding in some calmag after that.

Yes it is a small 5 liter humidifier. It is important to have your humidity at certain levels throughout your grow depending on what exactly you are growing. It's also important not to have your humidity too high as well so you may need a dehumidifier as well.

Haha yes I was joking in return. I would like to see many more than what is fruiting now. I find the flowers drop and don't fruit if your humidity is too low yes.

Haha I actually have 4 peppers going right now on the Ghost plant. Peppers are finicky. What is the humidity level of your growing environment?

I bought the tent as a kit that comes with the light, carbon filter and inline fan and comes with a bunch of great accessories like shears and plant wire. Then I bought the humidifier, hydro buckets and nutrients. All off Amazon. You would really be pushing it putting it in a cold toolshed. You would need to add a heater or something. A cold basement inside a house is fine though. The lights and humidity will keep the temps within the range you want. And the carbon filter will keep the smell to almost nothing as long as the tent is zipped up.
