Turkeyneck, nice grow man. i was wondering if you had any problems with mold or anything like that on the 4 inch rockwool blocks? I'm thinking of doing an ebb and flow using 5 inch net pots and 2 or 3 inch rockwool cubes with hydroton rocks. You think that would work? And by the way where did you get that awesome flood base for your system?! I've been looking all over the place, just can't find it. Did you get it online?

Thanks! I screwed up when I got the 4x4x4" cubes, I meant to get the 4x4x2... they are shorter and would be able to be comletely covered with hydroton in a 7" tray like this.. I have a Botanicare tray that I got at the hydro store, but im sure you could order one.

Uploading pics in a few..

Would you suggest 4x4x2 as the right size? or can I get away with 1.5x1.5? I'm going to be putting them in black plastic pots for an ebb and flow system. My second question is have you had any problems with the white tray? I'm assuming that black is preferred maybe because it keeps things cleaner in terms of algae but have you ever had any problems? Also what kind of electrical tool are you using for ppm/ pH/ etc meter?
I'm sorry for all the questions but I'm looking to make my own system from scratch and this would be my first time growing hydro so I'm just trying to figure it all out. I plan on putting together a sticky for the ebb and flow system if it works and a "Hydro Start Up Kit" thread after that so people who want to know what to buy can start there.

Well After the nute burn you wont see these up for bud pic of the month or anything.. ..But the buds are swelling, Trichs are 100% cloudy.. Im pretty sure this is a sativa dominate hybrid due to the long skinny growth and the mother took almost 10 weeks to flower outdoors with only 15-20% amber trichs.. so I figure These will be ready next in 6 to 10 days(hopefully)..

This was only my first time growing hydro..and Ive learned ALOT since I began this journey(with the help of some of the fine folks here at MP ) I plan to clean out the room and change a few things during the holidays and I'll be starting a new grow with some quality strains in the beggining of the new year.. Anyhow...Here they are:


What do you guys think?

Good luck to you!

Wow man buds are looking really really good. I'm sure once you move up to good genetics they'll be huge. By the way, would you mind answering my questions I'm my previous post in this thread? I'd appreciate the help. Thanks again, and post pics up of the finished result when you got em!

Thanks man, yeah Im unsatisfied with the strain..ganna order some good seeds for the next batch

1.5 will work for E&F..I used 4" because I had them in a drip system for veg..
The tray is awesome..no algae or mold.. It's heavy duty and easy to clean.
I have a Milwaukee handheld Ph pen that I ordered from hydrowarehouse.com for $57.49 after shipping, which is a really good price, and it works fine, however I dont have an EC meter yet so Im probably just ganna buy one of the Hanna combo meters that has it all...
