    Is this right for max EC levels:
    Seed : 0.8
    Seedling : 1.0
    Veg : 1.2
    Flower 1.4
    Bud : 1.6
    Each plant has different needs

    However, as a guide, you are pretty much there as long as your water has a background EC of .5

    It's wrapped loosely in foil and electrical tape (that's all I had!). Considering building some sort of box though....

    yeah that is something I have had to explore too. What I have seen is folks simply put them in boxes and pack the boxes full of rockwool or other kinds of foam.

    Tap water measures about .6. However, I have access to reverse osmosis water for the fishes. EC on that is .01. Should I use that instead?

    RO water comes with its own problems as it contains non of the micro nutrients that tap water has

    OK, cool. I will use tap water, but leave it a day for the chlorine to f*ck off.

    Any reason not to keep a full watering can in the grow tent to increase humidity?
