I don't aerated my top off right now and i have to clean it every 2 fills.. once this run is up i will be making some changes. Those pumps look like something to add to the list for sure.
Temp isnt as big a deal as PH,Ph shock to the roots will give you issues big time.This is why i use totes in the beginning as i can just fill the buckets with the same water they were in.I've been wondering how I'm going to refill 60 gallons of water at the proper temperature. I guess one of these huge drums is the best idea.
Thanks as usual Heisen!
damn man. nice to see you just immerse yourself in our craft. Top notch. :D What do you do for topoff to your rez??? I used to use a reef aquarium overflow pump. Set the height you need to maintain and the float will automatically top your rez off at a set point.Made some upgrades to the room.Got tired of filling the top off res with the split RO system so i got a 55 gallon barrel to fill now.Added a pump to the bottom to keep the water circulating and waterfall into the barrel.Just adding hydroguard to the barrel.Will make filling the top off res and doing system flushes very easy now.Also found a 40 gallon top off res and these stands at lowes.The lids are solid black and completely light proof so it was a good find for sure.
Real happy with how there all working together

These 60 gallon aquarium pumps are single handedly the best thing i ever upgraded in my room.Air stones suck and dont do a good job in the top off res.Since i switched to these my water stays clean as shit,and lots of DO in the top off res.Plants are all stupid happy.
I havnt had to wash out these resoviors in over a month and there still super clean.

yea after rereading stuff I see I missed you have a topoff rez :opps:I use a top off float in the epi bucket.works good.never had a problem.
The black tote is my top.off res where I mix my nutes and keep it aerated with the aquarium pumps.i steer my system with that res
Pushin! A couple weeks ahead of mine it looks like :)
All that tall stuff is GG4,It stretches like a mofo.If you wanna play a funny joke on a tent grower send them that cut and tell them to flip at 2 feet.than when they tell you there running out of room tell them they need to order a tent stretcher.I flipped mine at 18 inches from the net pots and there hitting 7 feet right now.All the same strains are very close to each others height.shortest is pp,A dub,Wed cake,Wifi,GG in that order short to tall.It always amazes me that they start flat and end up pretty uneven. Yours looks good, great, I just mean in general about plant growth.
It's currently amazing me how some clones blowup and grow like hotcakes but others in the same exact everything sit and squander their lives away.
tomorrow will make exactly 4 weeks.GG goes to 63 to 66 days and wed cake can go 10 weeks.Pushin! A couple weeks ahead of mine it looks like :)

Excellent video! Do u scrape the foreskin off before u place it in the plug? Cut on a 45? Cut the tips off the top set of leaves to "induce" rooting? Are these all myths?Also put this video together on cloning.
some cut 45 to get the stem in easier but i always cut right below a node.They seem to root faster from a node.I dont scrape the skin,When i do the stems seem to get soft.The tape was a jokeExcellent video!

The tape works well too .....
I know I forgot to put the lol after.some cut 45 to get the stem in easier but i always cut right below a node.They seem to root faster from a node.I dont scrape the skin,When i do the stems seem to get soft.The tape was a joke
