Top 10 MUST HAVE TOOLS for Cannabis Growers, The Best & Most Useful Gadgets Every Grower Needs
These are my top 10 favorite must have tools for growing cannabis and weed. I think every cannabis grower should consider all of these items because the value they provide will absolutely make things easier and make the best grows possible. These have all be used by me and are the best quality and proven to withstand the test of time.
0:19 Number – 10 20 ml Syringe
When I first started growing, I was using the same measurements spoons I was using for baking and that’s a terrible look. You really want to be precise and a 20 ml syringe will give you accurate measurements. Just make sure you rinse this between each nutrients and so you avoid cross contamination. 10 pack is 9 bucks and this is a game changer for anyone using synthetic nutrients.

0:51 Number 9 – Govee Smart Thermometer/Hygrometer
This thing is 12 bucks and I compared it to 2 other brands. Despite being the cheapest, it has the longest range and it just dominates because it also shows you VPD which thermopro still hasn’t added.

1:33 Number 8 – Ultra Fine Mist Sprays.
This is normally used as a hair spray, but these are perfect for foliar spraying. Unlike a regular spray, this mist is super gentle and disperses wider.

1:52 Number 7 – Epsom salt
A lot of nutrients and top dresses do not include sulfur. And some strains require more than others. Magnesium is also something that is commonly deficient in coco mediums so if you see this type striping, Epsom salt will help. Epsom salt is also known as magnesium sulfate and using about .3 grams per gallon is all you need to add to your feeds until the issues are fixed. You could get a 2 lb bag for like 5 bucks at your local pharmacy.

2:43 Number 6 – Jewelers Loupe
If you don’t know, the best way to tell when to harvest is by looking at your trichomes. Unfortunately, our naked eyes cant do this so, this is the best tool to making sure all of them are milky or amber. A great tip is to just remove the case and use double sided tape and place it over your camera and a video on how to do so is on my site. 7 bucks, it’s a no brainer.

3:20 Number 5 – Towkka Oscillating Fan
This small fan has the perfect amount of breeze, but it also packs a punch if you want it to. This is going on 2 years strong and most fans I have had don’t last more than a year so the value is undeniable at only 15 bucks.

3:55 Number 4 – The Photone App.
Even when you’re using different mediums, the one thing that is consistent with all of my grows is lighting. Unfortunately, not everyone has hundreds of dollars to spend on a device like apogee. It’s only 6 bucks and it what I use for all my light readings. Just make sure you’re using a 22 lb paper diffuser if you’re using iOS.

4:42 Number 3 -Hydrogen Peroxide
Also known as H2o2 this shit is like the franks hot sauce for weed. I put that on everything.
Tap water
Bloom juice
Veg juice
Clean my tent
Sprout water
This is like holy water, it sterilizes everything, prevents algae growth and it’s the only thing at this price point that kills mold spores. honestly, I would pay like 10 dollars if I had to.

5:33 Number 2: Generic pH/TDS Meter
The only one I’ve ever had that lasted more than a year is this generic 3 in 1 meter with this grey cap. Maybe I just got lucky, but it still works. And Ive had it since June of 2021, even with looking as rusted as it does.

I’m 81 years-old and have smoked off n on since the 60s and now I would like to try growing my own. Do you have a published book on how to grow. I’m not tech savvy so I need a book to reference when needed. Like your videos, thank you.
Good info
Lets say you put a trellis net up. Do you still dunk your plants or is it a hassle to remove plants from trellis nets. Also where do you buy your plant saucers and that thing that you place inside the saucer so your plant wont be touching the water.
Sorry to hear about your pH meters my apera is still going strong after a year and a half… But then i don’t use RO water. Even if you buffer the RO water I’ve noticed that pH pens don’t last long.
6:19 actually this kind of PH meter should be stored DRY! not in KCi solution! rinse with destilled water dry it, but the lid back on and it will work for years. (the rust is caused by the wet probes)
Left the e off cuz we never done learning
Photone is (was) free for Android when I got it
warning <3
Good stuff sir!

Great video man. Especially the last tip!
Ok. So what’s the peroxide mix ratio u use for the spray , aswell as how much do u add for a 5gal dwc bucket (roughly 3 1/2 gals in the bucket) . Tried Google but found different ratios so not sure which is really recommended. Appreciate any feedback. Good luck growing all.
Put speed of video at 1.25s. You’re welcome.
Great content as always. Been browsing new Ph pens. Mine’s about a tenth off currently but I know it’s only going to get worse lol. Thanks for the recomendation!
Amazing
Quality content
I have grown since the mid 80s and have recently starting to watch your videos.
Conclusion: YOU ARE LEGIT!
Keep up the great work.
The recommendations are tight! Thanks bro!
h2o2 can also help overwatering issues… o2 back to the plants
Question with the feed guide, once I mix the solution is that the amount of water I use on one plant for the week? Or multiple
I appreciate these videos my man.
"yeah the dollar tree "
So you add say 30 gallons and dunk plants in it with nutrition soak and drain?
if your dunking plants that does make them eb and flow hydro
Lot of good info ,well don
Great consolidation of tips. Learned a few more tricks, thanks!
And nutrition to gallons of course lol
5:29 what type of stressing is this ? is it similar to drilling a hole in the main branch?
I love this guy ❤
Dunk tank idea 💡 cool but not really good for me 😊 I’d be drowning my plants it is not as cool for me unless it’s full hydro with oxygen. Great idea to look into the technique better if you want to try it out.
Is the humidity the lowest right before lights off?
"Yeah" peroxide is also recommended to use for "Killing" fungus knats also. And I would have to think if it kills knats it’s prolly kills other beneficial’s and microbes aswell. So organic growers beware with that tip I think lol. I will admit it does NOT work very good for killing knats imo. However, I’d rather be safe then sorry with my living soil…….
🔥🔥🔥💨
Can we get more detailed info about Dunk feeding?
I use the macro mode on my phone. I take the pic then blow it up on a larger monitor. I can see everything.
I gotta learn more try the dunk
My guy always dropping 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Should I use hydrogen peroxide if I’m using R.O water? And it’s ok to use with A and B? I know it’s highly flammable
Do you have a video on how/when you dunk your whole plant like that? Never seen it
Most jewelers loops on amazon are not x60 as advertised but much lower. You won’t realise this until you use a next to a proper x 60. The little silver clip ons for the phone arn’t too bad, as it has a blue light that stops the washout from your grow lights. The downside is the clear plastic shroud that works to keep the correct distance from lens to bud, isn’t really deep enough and the lens get covered in sticky resin, thats hard to clean.
Which leads me to the end of my journey and ending up with a cheap bluetooth microscope… PERFECT just reach in to a bud, place and view on the phone screen . Grab a photo, that you can zoom even closer if you wish. For 20 bucks ish they are a bargain and the best solution I found so far.
Very good advice.
I liked dunk watering , do u have any video on how u do it more exactly and when u do it ? Im very interested. //best regards !
can you make a video about the dunks
And also, is the dunking how you feed them? Or is it something you just do periodically throughout the grow?
Best contact out!
How often do u put hydrogen peroxide in water/feeding? Every watering/feeding every other etc.
