The new batch of 8 are okay in the trays for a couple more weeks but I'm going to lose the 8 in trouble with the slime. I've been misting the roots removing the slime twice a day with weak H2O2, and they are hurting so I'm off to the grow store to see what they have I can use for a couple of...

I'm wondering if I'll just be hiding the pythium problem doing this but I've had it with the tubs, maybe I'll use them for the compost bins. Switching gears from hydro, days of reading hydro, hydro, hydro now I'm doing a 360 reading up on composting and re-using dirt. should be fun.

+++>I betchya I can't get that dirt in Canada

Yup, I think it's time. I'm listening, alusgun, duck, I just hate to giving up is all but frankly, I had better results with miracle grow and tomato fertilizer 5 years ago. Enough. I tried hydro because the discarding dirt was a total pain. I'll be changing my research from algae and slime to...

nine percent? that seems absurdly low to me, maybe they didn't count the hash smokers

all that information but no way to filtre for location? is there a way to only see Canadian sources... I'm not big on cross border shopping with a 5o cent dollar

I'm not sure if this thread had a happy ending or not, Hackerman, but it sure was entertaining! Talk about drama and heartbreak. Lots of belly laughs there too and interesting observations. Nifty camera. Great thread. You could put some guitar work and narration to them mite videos fer sure. I...

jeeze loeeeze, what happened? Did I jinx you? I've been reading for about 2 weeks now... I stumbled across an article that suggested high heat. And then, another guy who debunked that: I like your thinking, but unfortunatley they can hibernate when the temp drops below 65 ... And they can...

Infuriating. It was low in the tub 3.9 Why I rushed that part, I'll never figure out, stoned I guess, I was anxious to get the cavalry in there. 48 hours wasted. Another batch is on the go.

I probably could have re-used the earth instead of dumping it but at the time I did all my research in internet cafes. I truly miss it, nothing quite as enjoyable as watering plants. I also miss the feel of dirt in my hands. My plants never went into shock after a transplant. They loved it haha...

I started in soil and it was like a walk in the park. I tried hydro because discarding earth was becoming awkward to say the least. First few were okay and then I just hit a wall. Cognitive dissonance I guess but if I can't turn this around, it won't be hard unloading the hydro equipment after...

It's more like read and filtre. Ruin my grow. Well, it won't be the first time. Even if this works, the Thripps are waiting in the wings.

insecticidal soap was a disaster for me but the plants were young and I likely overdid it. I recall reading about a caterpillar killer that makes them think they are full and they stop eating and starve. I wish I could remember now but I was pretty ripped.

I know, I know, I'm reading lots of conflicting stuff. This crop is dying, I might as well try to learn something. Are nutes synthetics? If so, damn, but I'm trying it anyways. I'm told if no H2O2 left, I can have at it. I'm nervous about the molasses but like I said, the walking dead. Huh. The...

"If you have slime attacking plants with very small roots, adding housing to your res like a lava rock or koi pond mat will make a big difference. Place the housing in your tea brew for the duration and then move it to your res" What the heck is a "housing" ?

ultrasonic on those little *******s, don't you need ears? or does it vibrate them to death or something? Buy the Forbid 4f, I wish I had a 200 dollar solution to this crap, I've got thripps and brown slime algae or whatever the **** it's called, pythium follows. I feel your pain, THIS kind of...

spend the 200 bucks, Zem, think of it as an one oz sacrifice to the mite god

I use rapid rooters and don't like them sitting in the water. The pots are all sitting on a bed of pellets that fills and empties every 4 hours. If necessary, I'll top feed but they can stay a few weeks in there, the transplant is just gently lifting the pot and dropping it in the tub. I...

nope, I'm reading that the TEA is okay in hydro if I stop using H2O2 (it doesn't seem to be doing much anyhow, the roots still look like snot)

TEA water.... still available here molasses... yep myco powda... yep Worm castings... yep BOTANICARE AQUASHIELD....what are we using in Canada, i can't find this
