Invest in a nice clone tray holder, the part that holds the cubes in place, not the actual tray. Mine was like 13 bucks and it works great for getting stupid roots. Here’s my procedure that pretty much gives me 100% success and super nice white exploding roots.
500 ppm of clonex, I presoak the...
@heisenbubble Hey quick question, for the top of reservoir did you simply just drill a small hole and screw the plastic fitting into the brass fitting with a washer and it seals fine?
Good deal man, I think you’re taking care of the biggest suspect of your issue with the new RO system, won’t have to guess anymore.
I honestly can’t see how you’ll have problems as long as you’re doing everything right and keeping it simple. I’d lower your ppms until they’re growing strong...
That looks nice but the only thing that I could see happening with small lines is possible clogs. For $3-400 you could build yourself a system similar to the undercurrents which is what heisenbubbles system replicates. I get if you want the convenience of not having to do much besides unbox and...
I used it in DWC and while it gave great results, it was a huge pita ecause how how drastic the PH swings were sometimes as quick as 24 hours later. Also used it in DTW with rockwool with good results.
One line that has been working great for me that’s worth considering is Supernatural. Did a...
That I will, but going to see if I can make it throuh this run without one. I’ll try and get a pic of the roots tomorrow but kind of hard with the trellis, but so far they look great. My temps have been steady around 75-77 too lol.
I started in soil and organics to really learn about the plant and once I was comfortable I went to DWC. I liked it but was a pain in the ass to run up to 20seperate buckets at a time..never again lol. Then I decided to try DTW with rockwool, it was good but unless you have a nice timer that can...
He’s running a 320gph or around there, same with me and it’s a good amount of movement, especially if only doing a 4 or 6 site
Heisenbubble is somewhere around 300gph for his 12site, I’m using a dancer 320gph for a 8 site and works great. You could go with that or even less like a 250gph if...
Oh shit my bad! I wrote it backwards at first.
If ppm drops they need higher ppm
If ppm raises they need a lower ppm
That’s the tricky part with doing a multiple part nutrient line like that, you have to know exactly what the plants want so you don’t over or under do it with N, P or K. Using...
Yea it’s well worth the money, when I first started I used to go to the store with 3 5gal jugs and that was a pain in the ass, the R.O was such a great investment. Supernatural is what I use and it’s the easiest shit ever to use and my girls love it. It takes any guess work and makes feeding is...
I’ve used GH 3 part same as you for years with water temps reaching up to 78 at times and never experienced root rot, I also would never change the water in the buckets unless I started getting huge ph swings. I think your problem is your well water, everything else you’re doing seems good. I’d...
I gotcha, that makes sense. Yes, sir! Have watched them a few times to insure I don’t fuck up lol. You made it really thorough so it should work out great!
I was curious though about the garden hose being used instead of just black water line like the rest of the stuff you used? Does it have an...
@heisenbubble Just wondering, why did you choose to use garden hose for the section coming out of the chiller and in to the epicenter instead of the standard black hose you used for the rest?
Also I noticed the 90 fitting going in to the top of the epi in your video is different than what you...
I gotcha, I’ll probably try pvc because I have tons of it laying around to build the scrog, unless you would recommend different. Buckets, lids and pump are ordered, should have the system built and put together this weekend!
I was asking because I couldn’t tell if you topped yours or just...
How the hell do they manage to stay stable enough to hold and support everything? Also do you too or think they do best in this system not topped and just lollipopped?
Most definitely, the roots always blast through like crazy in the first few weeks of flowering so that’s never been an issue. I’ll definitely be making totes like your stuff in the future and will do a side by side too see the difference in veg time.
One last question for now, how are your...
