hey everyone, i got a few questions regarding some products, any info would be great.


i am currently growing a few varieties, and most of my crop will be ready in the next week or so, so i plan to start flushing and useing final phase from advanced nutrients, this is not a problem. but what i wanted to know is i have a few more plants that are really long flowering sativas and i noticed some over fert, but they havent burned yet but i doo see an excess of nutes in some leaf curl and what not. so i was wondering other than flushing a shitload of water thru them, would the final phase give the same effect? if not is there any other products out there that i can use to help break down salts and nutes that would work good inn this situation?

I've heard a lot of good things on here about drip clean from house and garden. :dance013:
Add it to the nute mix throughout... it forms an ionic bond with the salts and removes them. I think it might be what you're looking for.

well i had an electrician set everything up, i got 10 ballasts and 10 individual relay switches from the local hydrostore, and the electrician set everything up, about the powerbill and whatnot id rather not get into it....personal stuff, lol...

so yeah, im willing to answer any questions except about the power consumtion, 2 reasons, topsecret, and i didnt setup any of the electrical so i know nothing about it except for the stuff i baught.....put it this way the electrician i hired is soo sketched out that i couldnt even be there while he was doing the job, he didnt want me to see his face, i got this electrician contact from my cousin and uncle so i know je's cool.

That answers it all.

Joe, I don't usually sling accusations about, but why do I have the feeling you're stealing power to run your op? That's a major no-no if that's the case.

Most guys running off the grid would be all too happy to discuss the details as a matter of personal pride. I know if I had a big genny or a huge solar array I'd tell ya all about it.

Running 19k watts on the grid is more of a no no than running off of it I would think. It's all about risk reduction.


It doesn't work like that anymore.

Without getting technical here...The provider (Electricity Company) can see if more power is being "burned" than being sold.
There is a certain "loss margin" but these days it is very low.

Now you may be asking how do they know who is "borrowing" power w/o paying for it?

Very simple:

With today's technology the "area of loss" is being narrowed down "to the block" or by "so and so many users" if on the countryside/ a not so populated area.

Someone might be cutting in to the main feeding cable "somewhere" but that can and IS being narrowed down eventually.

Once a certain amount of loss is discovered it is just a question of time to find out who it is.

It is not about "if" - it is about "when".

Well let's hear from Joe Fresh whether or not he is using solar or propane to stay off the grid... if it's electricity theft, that is a no-no for sure... and he will pay the price, eventually.

Sad thing is, electricity theft gives the entire industry a bad rep.

you guys can assume what you want, but i prefer to keep my elec stuff personal, im growing weed, not wiring houses, im not revealing this piece of info as it may reveal too much info about my grow and its location.


so like i said, this piece of info will not be answered, so any furthur questions on this subject will be ignored, no offence to anyone

:thank you:


moving on now
