 | chalicedoctor and WhitneySegura, Welcome to my grow room and to the community. I have been to serious seeds, If I can ever save the money that's where I'll but my AK47s....Thanks. This site is busting at the seams with people who have done their homework very well. When I first joined I couldn't even get a seed to germinate. I knew nothing about clones, hydroponics. aeroponics, or any thing else. It took a few attempts before I got it right. The system I use is the only one I have tried. It's easy to construct and simple in it's design. It works well but maybe not as well as others, I haven't decided on that one yet. I think the individual grower has a lot to do with the outcome. There is no substitute for experience. So My best advice for a new person is find a mentor here, someone you can relate to and communicate with. I'm positive there are any number of people here willing to take you under their wing so to speak. That is the real reason we are all here, to help each other. (and to brag on our grows) scrub was my mentor some five years ago. He has been a good friend and still is to this day. I just need to get him to teach me haw to make those cool diagrams. Damn it all I'm so bad with computers. Good luck to you guys. If I can help in any way let me know. I'll be glad to share what limited knowledge I have. | ||

| Thanks, Them and welcome to your new readers, chalicedoctor and WhitneySegura. The diagrams are built up from basic shapes in PowerPoint. For instance, a sprout can be drawn from two ellipses, one or more free-form lines and a little color. Once a shape is created you can use it over and over. Rock-wool is a ... uh ... cube. And a tote reservoir and cabinet sides are trapezoids. Anyway, they are fun to draw, get my point across, and provide a visual reference. Your garden looks great!

| Thanks scrub, I tried to download PowerPoint but I'm too stoned to get it right. Is there a link? I'm one of those old dogs you might have heard about. I added three more gallons of RO water. The res was not low, but I might have a problem getting to the water dispenser for the next week or so....so I filled the res and the transport bottles. Now i have a full res and plenty of back up if needed, which I'm positive I'll use. The PPM was 1250 before I added the water. The water temp was 68f. The plants are doing great. The smaller branches have stretched and started to produce buds. | ||

| PowerPoint is part of Microsoft Office. It is not downloadable. I'm not familiar with other drawing programs but you may find interesting items a tucows or CNET.

| I've got secondary branches everywhere. They are almost up to the lights. A few are up to the lights. The top of the biggest branch has been retied in order to lower the top. With about three weeks to go I'm hoping the buds will start filling in soon. Today's readings; PPM 1100. Added 30 ml. bloom and 15 ml. micro. Water temp 70f. Added three frozen water bottles. | ||
