Not fully realizing the battle heat and humidity presents, even indoors, especially when growing with hpa

I finally got my ac recharged to much better, bigger, fatter buds

Not using a dehumidifier the last 6 weeks of flowering during a very wet Autumn, won't be doing that again......

trusting digital timers.........

had a drip system on a digital timer it knocked on and never knocked off it put so much water into the rockwool slabs they fell off the tables onto the floor and then i had a nice water feature running through the house. now its segmental timers all the way.
Fuck digital timers, Man. I bought one and can't even work out how the fuck it works. It sits in the back of a cupboard somewhere.

Learned that good organic soil doesn't need fed as much. Keeping it simple grows fine plants. Good soil almost never needs fed. Usually a good mix in the earth and your good to go.
Plus staying out of other troubles, no need for multiple cases.

Got to be over 15 years ago I was running NFT and had read in High Times that giving sugars in flowering helped yield, taste etc. Well I couldn't find the article to check, so I put 2 x 2lb bags of sugar in the rez, a few days later I checked the rez and it had a head on it, so I was feeding them on BEER.

Hi willy yea now I understand confused by lots of variations lol :D :joint:

My biggest Eureka moment is when I went from growing in soil "in the beginning" to moving to a small 205 nft WOW Cool! Speed of growth difference
Also when I put liqued co2 on to soil plants - went like a bean stalk :D

Innovations r cool the 205i nft s pump now has an air induction inlet tube :)
