Not the video I was wanting to put out this week and sorry its over 9 minutes long. But I've trying to get over a cold and this was all I could muster.

Just covering some updates with the Superthrive, Aphid, Flood Table and the DWC system to keep everyone up to date on the project so far.

  • Hay hot plant guy :) i was given a sample of superthrive and got so excited about it..you have burst my bubble...haha. Brilliant videos! (at least i won't be disapointed) x

  • the best battery for high loads and quick recharge is the Optima yellow top deep cycle battery.

    Any battery designed for boat trolling motors is also good for servicing high loads and quick rechargability.

  • Did you let the battery freeze for a long time? If so your battery is shot

  • First, stop using rockwol this isn't 1970. Second, use rapid rooters or coco period as they have built in beneficials and will help rooting hands down. Super thrive is for trees, it says so on the bottle and its real claim to fame is that cannabis growers buy the hell out of it...doesn't mean it works for that either though but the money is coming from them and tree farms. If you want better rooting, better cloning and rapid root growth get some Great White or Myco Madness beneficial micros.

  • your seedlingsI think had weak lighting. Plus I think you need a heating pad under them set at 75*. or set them on something that gets warm, put clothe under to buffer heat if too hot...oh, and I thought your were should soak the rock wool for 24hrs at a pH of 5.5 until they stablize.

  • How high is the charge voltage? if you took a voltmeter to your car and monitored the battery voltage with the motor off, then again with the motor on, you would see that the alternator puts out a higher voltage than what you might be getting from your panels. Increase the charge voltage. The type of battery you use, will also be a factor in your problem. Give more information on what you find, and I could comment more.

  • Cloning from clippings hasn't failed me yet. The yield might be a little less, but at least I know where my plant came from, and it cuts corners on the clock.

    The dark spotting on the leaves could be phosphorus deficiency, or possibly due to no dark time. The spots appear in the center, which tells me it likely isn't disease related, but could be over-fertilization. If it gets out of control I'd check the PH, trim back affected leaves.

  • @gradiencex You may have solved my problem (Thanks!). I will try it tomorrow. For this guy he returned the battery and replaced them with deep cycle golf cart batteries i believe.
