How's it going Pat! I don't have experience with that specific product but do use the FF Happy Frog Tomato/Veg fertilizer. If you look on their website the Happy Frog line seems to be the exact of the Peace of Mind line. It has the same nonfood ingredients. I picked up this product for my...
I was able to get 23 seeds,inside:
tried to show bumpy skin:
taste test:
hot! never grew any other superhot so can't really give good comparison. I wish I coulda grew out more seeds. props to madhatter for his growing pics.
sorry for the inconsistent quality of my pics. eff my camera
2 tablespoons of peroxide (assuming 3%) can be strong if it's not diluted right. It's recommended not to expose healthy roots to peroxide unless you want to stress them out. Better just run the roots through tap water.
Generally 3 part formulas work best in 1:1:1 ratio as mentioned. Good...
Here's a plant that I didn't trim any bottom growth. The growth at bottom eventually pushes outward. The top growth never stopped growing wider and taller either. Excuse the pics of a bhut (sorry no scorpions this year). Not sure if this is good horticulture practice or not. For me the...
If you're talking 2nd set of true leaves then it's not a problem.
Here's a 7Pod grown in coco coir, fed with plain water for 3 weeks and drawing main nutrients from whatever its mother gave it. Yellow leaves.
After being fed with regular nutrients all old and new growth comes out green.
It's not recommended to transplant a soil plant to bubbler since you don't want to intentionally introduce dirt to the system. It's best to start with seedling/cutting in soilless medium. But I've done the soil to hydro. It's important to wash the roots and stem thoroughly. I wash in tap. I...
I know mary jane growers use LST to some good effect. They're forced to because of space/security issues. But peppers aren't weeds so good luck with that and keep us in the know :)
I believe those are Rapid Rooters made by General Hydroponics. Usually sold in a bag but I guess your guy sells them individually or is a possible knock off. I've seen them used to start cuttings. Retains moisture so you have to be careful with overwatering. They're organic so you can...
Straight coco is not appropriate in a DWC since it acts like a sponge and retains lots of moisture even in handwatering grow. Some people have used lava rock but I've read it doesn't run clean as hydroton. I use hydroton myself but would run straight perlite if I didn't have access to the clay...
Nice vid tour. Finally got your hydro going. Just got to be patient till the roots hit the water :)
Good luck this season.
Post edit: Yeah what boutros mentioned about the res temp is important. You know how the florida summers are. Just something to pay attention to.
The 0.5 mL dose corresponds to about 88 ppm. I only use it to sanitize my feed water. If you're trying to sanitize the water, then you mix the H202 and allow time for it to dissipate before adding nutes. You can go up to 500 ppm as Willard suggested, but 100 ppm also found to kill root rot...
