i have a ques can i grow from clone to bud in rockwool using wicks or hand watering. the nute situation is the other thing i am having trouble finding info on how do i determine feeding amounts types and schedules if someone can tell me how they came up with their feeding schedule and the amount and types of nutes to use thats what i need also is there any other key things i need to know or have before starting ive read about nutes but just dont understand what to do please help i would love to switch to dro as i have alot of time for the next couple mos to setit up and a good buddy to maintain it if i can convince him
sorry to repost but i had more to say

Yes, you can, but it is a pain in the ass.

What kind of nutes? chem or organic?
What strain are you growing?
What kind of light?
Indoors, I assume, in a box, a closet, an open room?
Ventilation, fresh air, and temps should be accounted for.

Someone maintaining your setup is not a good idea at all, a sure way to get screwed. Why would you do that anyways? I know, you've known them all your life, wouldn't ever tell anyone, blah, blah, Don't tell anybody what your doing or maybe your in a med state or Canada or other more tolerant countries than the US.

Good growin

i dont care what kinda nutes the ones that are the easiest cheapest
1 main veg(cfls and 150 mh room 2 individual flower rooms(430 agro hps in one and 250 hps in other) flower room
and hes my grow partner we live together he is friends with my dad
he taught me 2 grow so i dont worry plus our place is secluded as hell
but how do i figure the nutes out how muchto give, when to give if there not gettin enuf. the basics and supplies ill need like thingy to measure ppm ph strips and what ever else i need a pro like you or gn to give me the break down thank you oh and would wicks also be apain wit rock wool

General Hydroponics
Botanicare - American Agritech
Metanatruals
Advanced Nutreints
Fox Farm
Earth Juice
Green Fuse

All have grow and veg formulas and all the ratios are called out on the specific bottle. They range from 5ml/gallon to 60ml/gallon. There are usually ammendments(suplements) available to make up for or boost growth in addition to the base mix(example-cal-mag,overdrive, big bud, liquid karma, etc...)

Go to their websites and read up or get into the forums here, most have links to the different nute and equipment manufacturers.

You have enough lights, the 430w hps is good for about a 3x3 or maybe a 4x4 e&f table for sure if you kicked the 250w at the same time a 3x3 table in a 4x4x8 space would be killer.imho

A good book about hydro systems would be pf gret assistance to u i think, maybe Tex could offer up a Title???

Here's a link to one of the books I have up on my server (be patient, it takes a while): HYDROPONICS OVERVIEW

*It should help a bit anyway.*

Try these people on ebay: https://stores.ebay.com/EzHydroKit

They have various kits available... it might be what you are looking for.

I purchased a 125w CF light from them... had no problems with them.

Don't forget to get some good genetics to grow.
