LOL, i didnt mean her face, that shit is busted. Just them big ass cones ;0

Coco crew, i got a question for ya...how long does a rez stay good for you?

Trying to plan for run after this one and i will be out of town for 7-10 days most likely during that one. Will it stay good if i mix her up the day i leave? From what i seen else where im guessing that's about the max...just wondering what you guys experience.

Need to run a bunch of different seed plants to thin the heard a little, so the rdwc is a no go.

Stay good as in the rez not getting skanky or as in how long it lasts?
I travel to Europe for 3 weeks every year and even though someone refills my rez for me while I'm gone, a rez will last me 7 days before going empty. How long yours lasts will obviously depend on how many plants, how often you feed and rez size...
As for skankyness, by the 7th day sometimes the last of the water gets stale but since i water to waste the "dead" rez does not affect my plants. In fact, thee absolute best harvests I ever had were when I'm gone to Europe. Seems they grow there best when they're left alone...

Hehe....yea i mean "skanky". I can figure out the volume and such.

Wondering if i chuck a small 2nd pump in the rez to mix it up if it will help keep the skank away. I can test it on my veg area i guess.

I have one of those GH covert tanks i bought a while back, i think it ~60gals. Not sure on count yet, still depending on how many sex properly. Of course they will all turn female now due to situation :) So far its looking that way at least.

What size rez are you using Asslover?

I use a 55 gal rez, those blue food grade ones you see for sale on craigslist.
For a timer i use a digital from HTG, the square white one with an outlet on either side.
It takes about 3 minutes to achieve waste. I use another timer (same as the feed timer) to dump my waste rez. It comes on 3 minutes after the feed timer and shuts off 3 minutes after the feed goes off, to account for the dripping.
I tried dropping a small pump in the rez to agitate things but it still gets stale by the end. I may try one of those fish tank filters that hang on the side of a fish tank...
But like i said, since we're dripping to waste the stale rez does not affect growth.

I just checked out the GroKashi site and it looks exciting/promising :)
How long have you been using it? and what other amendments do you use? If you dont mind me asking?

nice g/o, you tried the animal yet? I've come to really dislike the forum cut because of the flavor wondering if that animal tastes better

FLAgreenthumb: I will post the list of what I use when I get home later. I have been running GroKashi for around 6months now and it has made a very noticable difference in flavor, potency, and overall health of the plants.


Hugh: Thanks bro!! Yeah I have had the Animal cut for about 3yrs now. She is much better than the Forum cut in flavor and high. Has more of an earthy OG flavor with a slight minty flavor on exhale.

For a timer i use a digital from HTG, the square white one with an outlet on either side.

I have about 3 of them (well i think they are the same, ecoplus models) laying around. Not a damn one works any more :) Of course it couldn't be that easy.

I have been using the veg nute mix you guys recommended and i can say everything looks so beautiful right about now:biggrin:, cant wait to run a flower session. Hell even with RO water its working wonderful. I did switch my calmag product from GH magical to TF Calimagic and i think that made a difference too. The GH didnt seem to work very well in my rdwc either, seemed to have cal issues in flower and mag issues in veg with it.

You guys are killing the coco thats for sure.

I concur on needing outside info to help clarify moments lost in the fog..haha brother if your interested in delving into that bag I would be more than glad to help... A few years back I stumbled across a pretty good way to germ old seeds... well at least increase our chances..lol It would b a lot of work, but who knows what we'll find!! I dont know... something to think about....
I cant PM yet... as soon as i can Ill send you my email/#....

Hit me up when you can PM. I ran across a methodology on here for germinating old seeds but i don't recall it exactly. I think there was a 3% H2O2 soak and then a soak in MaxiBloom and then I think it had you physically crack the seed (not too difficult once they've soaked for a bit. there may have been a few other steps but I'd have to dig it up to be sure...

U guys rocking smart meters? No issues with it since put in? I declined it as well as a few others that dont even play. I didnt particularly care for another fricken wifi signal blasting next to my office space.

You had a choice??? The MFer's at my power company gave me no notice at all, one day they just jumped my 6 foot privacy fence (after failing to access any of the gates :biggrin:) and just installed it and went on to the next house. It might have been there for two weeks before I realized the meter head was different.

In a way I don't care since it's one less person peering over my fence to read the meter and since I don't grow here or indoors for that matter, it is actually of no consequence. I just happen to be one of those old fucks who don't like uninvited people coming on my property.

Not really but enough people bitched to where they had to. I get charged for it.

You had to stop them before they did it or write a note on it so they didnt change.

I also dont care for the fact they used the govt economic recovery money to lay people off either. Thats a straight up dick move to employees and tax payers. I didnt see them reduce rates of power when they will be saving that money either. Greedy bastards.
