This has to be the best method of using the Med-Man tables I have ever seen.
I would hazard a guess that the quality of your crop in soil Krunchbubble will be much better than anything Med -Man tables will put out ever.

What really kills me about this thread is everyone is blaming med-man for Krunch's mistake (trying to switch from living to a dead res). Should be very clear to anyone that has even an elementary understanding of the principals that make ANY water based hydro system a success or failure what happened here. It's purely user error, there is nothing intrinsically wrong with the design of med-man's tables.
Now before I dawn my flame suit, let me say a couple things. I have nothing but respect for krunch and his ability's, but like any human he's prone to making the occasional mistake. Happens to the best of us
. Secondly I don't know med-man, don't grow on his tables, nor do I use his nutes or seeds, zero affiliation of any kind with him. I'm just some guy that cut his teeth on fast hydro systems, and has been around long enough to know a thing or two

I'm just some guy that cut his teeth on fast hydro systems, and has been around long enough to know a thing or two Just checked ph out of the bag, vermifire ftw! Bags of roots all came out 5.8-6 both bags of vermifire where 6.4. Honestly that's almost fucking rare now. I'm still going lime everything cause I can't check individual bags regularly, but it's nice to know these guys are giving it a proper charge. I just happened to 2 bags of each sitting there.
I think the fungus gnats are there because of moisture content in the bag. This time of year I bet every shop has a resident population and if the media is wet enough, bam you got a little blow up of them. Trying the BTI, also noticing that my regular maintenance spino applications fuck those guys up. First time I applied spino the sticky traps filled up. The gnats will have it harder here in a minute when they root out these containers and have more dry cycle. Seems like first 4 days is the worst.
It is definitely an interesting soil. Drainage and aeration seem on par with much more fibrous blends. I think I like that, pith is a good thing as long as it's not too wet and this stuff seems to hit the mark.
Are you gonna feed synthetics or organics?

I really enjoyed the show, my 2 cents I would not use any base that has as many organic compounds for a sterile system. I would try this with some modifications, mesh bottom pots instead of net pots, no advanced nutrients. I did cover a tray with plastic and had roots blow out of the smart pots doing flood and drain. I plan on trying it on drippers next to give a better more thorough watering, and something more for the roots to chase.

That vermifire is great soil. The first time I used it it burned my plants because they were too small (4 inch planters transplanted to 1.5 gallon pot). The second time I waited to transplant the 1.5 gallon to 3 gallon and the plants exploded!
I've never used Advanced before, but how are you planning to feed? I usually go two weeks with just a kelp type supplement before I start fertilizing.
I also am using RO water and cal mag as recommended by the vermicrop guys. I already had a RO system for when I used to do hydro.

From what i read it appears to be a hot mix but hell know people that planted clones in straight manure out at the farm and it grew like a mofo
guess its strain related i would be worried sticking a strain that does not like hot soils
in it or sticking a plant to young in it
but if it works that stick with it tweak along and find what gives you explosive growth rates for me i like using sheep manure, sea compost peat moss pro mix BX

Thank god!!!!! This clown has spewed nothing but bs and self-promoting articles and how HIS experience is the truth, lol, for years now. You'd think he would have learned something from all the "feedback" he's been getting over the years on his "business" model, but no...it must be hard to hear with your head that far up your ass....
Sorry for your wasted time and money Krunch...I would like to thank you though for putting a light over this snake...
Sucks that you can't delete this whole thread, huh MM? Hahahaha...
Krunch,
What do you think is the reason the M-tables didn't work well for you? I understand they aren't very forgiving. But there are tons of posts out there with them working out great. You've got some good grows yourself on here so you know some things.
I've been following this thread hoping these worked well for you. So it's not clear if your blaming table design, user error and this first post I see of it being M-man having something to do with it?

run tables like medman says results will speak for themselves.theres a whole bunch of people running tables with hella good results,including myself,ive ran soil,coco and done ebb and flow along with some rdwc and tables have a shitloads of upside to them.its not a system for beginers,but if dialed in produce more in shorter time than soil, coco and ebb and flow.medman knows wat the hell his talking about,its just everybody that grows is stuck on their ways,and wnt listen to good advice.tooooo many know it alls!!!!

I'm going thru your post history (looking for the supposed info you've given out) and roughly 30-50% of your messages have been edited to just say 'snip.' Page 8 of your post history is very badly censored.
That is rather odd. Don't think I can trust someone who erases half of their posts, seems kind of ragey. Kappa.

hey snype
35% - 1.6 ml per liter every 2-3 days
29% - 1.75 ml per liter every 2-3 days
med-man method
I used 9 mL per Gallon of 35% and the plants were all dead within a few hours. That was in RDWC. I didn't use it because I was having problems. I used it as a test to see what would happen. My friend swore 9mL was the perfect amount. Boy was he wrong.

I know this is off topic but Jesus can I go through one fucking hydro thread without a bunch of soil guys coming in to say how much better soil grown weed is!!! Every newbie should start off in soil, at least I think so. After you get a year or 2 you then decide. And fuck, tell me experimentation and new techniques aren't fun to try. For some of us who don't have the space we can't always afford to do it, but it is fun. I am running RDWC for the first time from DWC tubs with just veg+bloom, size and life. I give some advice and some one blasts me for using the stuff. The Med Man tables look great, choice is yours, do what works for your ENVIRONMENT. And hey in the spring, in my organic garden out back, I always plant some beans. And yeas it taste and smokes great, and I use 0 anything just let them go. Anyway I'm sorry for the rant but I just get sick of half a thread being a argument over soil vs hydro, this nute vs organic...blah blah blah Sorry for the rant. Got some nice information out of this thread. Thanks Krunchbubble for the read. Dr Fever, Med-Man and the other people who contributed great stuff.
AFTER the 72 hour dark period flip. Oh No! The dreaded 72 hour darkness, your plants are going to fail! Im sure that contributed to the failed MAD-MAN crop! Chingas....
