Hi GA GH, Yes coco will work throughout the plants life as long as you keep feeding it nutes every time you water. You can also get away with using smaller pots. My plants under the T5 are in 7 quart buckets and the not peters are still in 3 quart doing well. I got the peter seeds from...

They are in Readygro moisture coco coir and I added Mykos mycorrihizal in layers. When they were in 3 quart pots I used a layer of hydroton to stop a little algea I was seeing. It is also a good way to stop fungus gnats. When I switched to 7 quart pots that they are in now I didn't put a layer...

Thanks for the bump. Here is the 7 pot, it didn't grow as tall as the reaper or Bhut, Haven't noticed any pods just yet, but flowering like crazy. In person this is the best looking plant I have. Bhut this guy has started to produce like crazy. Everytime I look at it I find new pods...

So I had to get rid of some plants. My fungus came back on the reaper and BT so I tossed those. I barely had room for them so it just made it easy for me to decide which to get rid of. I'm kind of sad about the BT cause I wanted to compare it to the reaper, life will go on I guess. In the tent...

Good point Nate, but what you lose in yield on certain plants will certainly be more than what you save in power. So you have to figure out how many harvests (which will yield less) you have to go thru before you recoup the upfront cost of the light. I understand power consumption plays a role...

This pic shows why most experienced growers of certain plants will not use leds. Image was from http://www.supercloset.com/blog/led-vs-hps-grow-lights-showdown-%E2%80%9Chydroponic-tomato-grow-off%E2%80%9D-in-the-supercloset-deluxe-grow-boxes. That is a 800-1000$ led light compared to a 400...

I do almost the same as idosimon. Once I see about a 1/2 in of root coming out the bottom I transplant. The trick is having a long enough root that will hang into the water while leaving space for starter plug above the water not touching. As the roots start to get longer you can lower the water...

Done, thanks I will send them as soon as I have enough.

I also had the turbo graphics 16, the only game I remember playing on it was Splatterhouse. Tecmo Bowl, Punchout and Zelda were my NES favorites. Conker's is by far my favorite counsel game every made.

Yep that's the reaper plant, hopefully it will be loaded in the next week or so then now that it's starting to produce.

Thanks scratch, as nice as it is my bhut and 7 pot look way healthier. I think these reapers need a lot more cal mag, the leaves want to curl up at the edges. The one in the dwc doesn't seem to have that problem and I add more cal mag to that one. More pics. Top of the plant. A couple closer...

Those are some healthy looking plants Doc, very nice! Here you go. I still haven't seen any pods, but my bhut plant just started producing pods like crazy so it shouldn't be to much longer. I got rid of the smaller plant in coco it's fungus came back so that guy and my BT had to go. At least...

Very nice plants you got growing! Pic 1 isn't exaggerating about the size, my 3 month old bhut is 4 ft tall and 40" across.

The temps during the day are a little high, you want to keep it under 75. The higher the temp in the res the better chance of root rot. I always start my ph in dwc at 5.7-5.8 and once it gets up over 6.1 I change the res out with fresh nutes.

Thanks for the bump! Here is the 7 pot. The bamboo stakes are 4ft tall and the frame is 4'x4' so you can get a sense of their size. Not sure if I even want to know how wide this guy would be if it wasn't supported. It is my favorite to look at now. Next up is my Reaper that is healthy, this...

Gardening Indoors with Soil & Hydroponics is the best book I have found on indoor gardening. A lot of information can be found in that book, so don't let the indoor part discourage you from checking it out.

Thank you! Thanks, and I will send some so you can try. Hopefully it won't be to long now. Thanks, I'm also looking forward to tasting them. I won't eat them straight though they will be put in chilli and bbq sauce. If I'm lucky someone on here will want to make me a powder if I send enough...

Thanks for the bump, one 1 reaper looks amazing, will save that one for last. Here is the smaller of the 2 Peters I have in coco. I put a five gallon bucket next to it for scale the best solution I could come up with. Here is the bigger of the Peters, this one has tons of flowers and quit a...
