How do I get rid of powder mildew?

The following question was sent in by “MeeTom”, a resident of Nova Scotia and whilst we have our own opinions we made sure to ask all our experienced grower friends when they dropped by the store during the week. The best answer we got and the one that everyone seemed to agree upon as being […]

Quick Grow LED vs Mars Hydro Review

There is a lot of blah written on the internet (esp Reddit) about grow lights, the majority of it is written by sponsored posters who are paid by whatever lighting company to write about how amazing that companies lights are and guide anyone new to indoor growing towards that light set up.

Home Hydroponics by Peter

We were pleased to read this article and see that Peter Chrapchynski gave us a mention after we spoke to him on the phone regarding the setting up of his hydroponic system. Peter is growing lettuce and has designed an excellent hydroponic system, he contacted us with various questions but we concentrated mostly upon inner diameters […]

Hydrogen Peroxide Horticulture

Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is a clear sharp smelling substance very similar in appearance to water (H2O). Like water it is made up of Hydrogen and Oxygen, however H2O2 has an extra Oxygen atom in an unstable arrangement. It is this extra atom that gives H2O2 its useful properties. H2O2 has been used for many purposes […]

Day-Night Temp & CO2 Enrichment

Carbon Dioxide is an odorless gas which makes up about 300 ppm of our atmosphere, yet dried plant material contains an average of 40% carbon which comes entirely from CO2. Therefore we need to consider CO2 to be a major plant nutrient, one that affects growth rate, yield and one that needs to be supplied […]

Oxygenation & Air Pumps

Oxygen is an essential plant nutrient – plant root systems require oxygen for aerobic respiration, an essential plant process that releases energy for root growth and nutrient uptake. In many ‘solution culture’ hydroponic systems, the oxygen supplied for plant root uptake is provided mostly as dissolved oxygen (DO) held in the nutrient solution. If depletion […]

Fans, Air Movement, Humidity & Temp.

The most overlooked environmental factor affecting plant growth inside a growing environment or growing structure is airflow. Getting just the right degree of air movement across a leaf surface is vital to good production and yields and can mean the difference between high rates of photosynthesis occurring or none at all. Good air flow also […]

Light Tracking

Artificial lighting in an indoor setting is used to replace the lumens provided by the sun. Outdoors the sun provides a high degree of light intensity which is ‘diffused’ as it passes into our atmosphere. The sun moves over the course of a day and the angle can change with the season depending where on […]
