I will get a better picture. She is all droppy and looks sad

 

[Greenadian]

Droopy and Sad......okay. That could be a number of things. Needs watering, too much water, too cold in the room, soil too cold .....etc

Everything is the same as it was when I had all 3 in the tent. I will get new pictures as soon as I get a chance. Don't think the Humulus cross seeds are gonna do anything

 

[Arny420]

It just dont look as good as the other Grape Ape is had going

 

[Arny420]

This will be what I am gonna try to pop next since the Humulus cross seeds didnt pop

 

[Arny420]

Got the right parts this time. It will go into use as soon as I setup the other watering system. And one will go in/on the watering system im using now

 

[Arny420]

Not looking too bad really now

 

[Arny420]

Got a couple of these in to pop for the other tent. That means I gotta get the other watering system up and going soon

Arnie,
here is my irrigation setup for my mothers. This just recirculates when pump is on via gravity (1min on/30min off). With your setup, you'll have to run it manually at 1rst to figure out how long to run your feeder pump for, with little to no runoff. You'll need a digital timer that does both minutes and seconds.
These are just little 210 gph pumps, one just lays there and runs 24/7 to keep the res circulating and oxygenated. (moving water = better than air stones, I run both regardless)
Notice how the 1/4" feeder tubes all have their own valves for fine tuning them to all run the same flow or dribble
The tubes are all angled downward to prevent water from dribbling back down the underside
In your big pots, I'd recommend 3-4 open tubes each, it's important that you can see them, in order to know how they're flowing
Don't worry about water rings and drippers and shite that can clog or water unevenly
*Note: It's important to use soft tubing, not any stiff ass rainbird or big box store crap.
*Note: The brown on the cubes is nutrient stain, not mold or anything
I see you're already using compression fittings, good action
Reservoir is a 27gal tote from big orange store

Thats a nice ass setup bro. I have those pumps for circulating in my bucket/reservoir. I will look into it. But right now I've only got so much space. Is it good to leave the circulating pump on 24/7? Ive got mine where it comes on every hr and runs for like 5 mins each time

Yes, the circulation pump runs 24/7. Moving water infuses more dissolved oxygen than an air stone, plus it ensures the nutrients stay mixed and suspended in solution.

Now, so there is no confusion, I run two pumps - one feeder pump on a timer, and a separate circulation pump, that just sits in the bottom of the res, no hoses attached and runs 24/7. Added bonus, is it gives you a backup pump if the main feeder pump fails. Don't worry about it adding heat to the res, it's negligible with a 210gal pump, plus, the moving water helps keep the reservoir cool; like stirring a bowl a hot soup. Think of moving vs stagnant water, which would you prefer to drink?

Ok I will set the circulating pump to run 24/7. I am using 2 separate pumps on my system as well. Im abiut to fire up my second system as soon as something pops

Just about time to setup my next journey with auto watering. Had one so far pop of the Gorilla Punch i put in to pop.
