Thank you, I placed the clones in flowering after a root-ball was firmly established- about a week after the first root hairs appeared- there were 24 of the little buggers(havent even touched that crop...yet, stilll curing.

Thanks Shady, good to hear from you.And after some consideration, I'd have to say the GH Waterfarm(very easy and cheap to build your own) with it's combo drip/dwc tek has provided the most prolific growth.I'm not one to count my chickens before they hatch, but the growth from a single waterfarm will definitely overshadow my recent grows.I'll try to find the tutorial link for the homebrew waterfarm- you can buy one for about 65US, or you can build one for about 15US.I plan on scrapping together 4 for my upcoming Greenhouse Church grow.Now I've got some catching up to do with everyone elses projects( been hella busy lately) hope all is well with everyone.

Nice mini forest bro! Looking forward to the tutorial link on the waterfarm too! I've heard a lot of good things about them...
 
LOL "SWEET , organic carbohydrate synthizer" LOL can you say blackstrap mollassas...prolly with a little kelp thrown in for good measure...

and since I keep this page in my Favs.. I'll link it for ya

Complete list of GH unit PDF instructions

PowerGrower Eco PDF


OK gonna hijak this for a sec..but I gaurantee nobody reading will mind.

these are the products I use to make my own WaterFarms at a fraction the cost.

**DISCLAIMER **I shop at Discount Hydroponics so I am just using thier site and pics cause it is familair to Me, please use the hydro shop/site you are the most comfortable with, they should all have or can order these products in ( most will have on hand)

1. the Guts


should run ya about 10 $ U.S.

2. The Rezzy ( aka "The 5 gallon Bucket" )
price is anywhere from free - 8$ U.S. (see no need to link to this)

3. The Pot ( 6" shown below, get the 10" it is a perfect fit for the drip rings)

cost 4-5 bucks

4. Whatever medium you want. examples; Hydroton, Higromoite, Synthetic Inserts.

5. an aquarium airpump like this one.


I just get mine at Walmart for about 7 bucks

After that is only drilling one hole at the bottom of the bucket, for the solution level sight, the blue tube in the first pic ( and is optional but suggested)

Cutting out a space for the down spout (the brown tube in first pic ) to go through the net pot into your solution.

Fill with medium and hydro solution, add a plant. Then hook up one air line to the air pump , and walk away.

hijak off.

LOL hope you don't mind BF .. if so let me know will and I delete.

peace
 
That was unsuccessfully taken from another site, I'll have to look around for another tutorial-cant seem to get the pics with that one.I'll try again.
 
heres the pdf for the powergrower waterfarm, basically by listing the materials from the pdf, you can compare them to the partial tutorial I just posted.Instead of the insert that comes with the powergrower, you would cut a hole big enough in top of a 5 gal bucket lid for a 10" net pot to fit snugly in- the piping for the drip ring would penetrate the flange of the net pot.The drip ring would consist of poly tubing( make sure the holes in the poly are facing down-I say this because I didnt- ) the poly drip ring will round out into a 1"(or sized appropriate to the poly tubing size) T-pvc fitting.And dont use a white 5 gal bucket(dont want to light up the reservoir)-set up your airpump( I use an extra air-pump and airstone in the res) fill her up to the desired level-and top daily.As you can see from the pdf, theres really nothing to these things-sure they're pretty cheap to begin with, but buy 5 or 6 and watch your wallet get lighter-shit... these days every little bit helps
