[Bonesy512]

Tackled adding two new circuits to my sub panel, and im adding an irrigation controller and dividing the whole arrangement into two zones and adding an additional 5 manifolds and an ecoplus elite multistage 1416 gph pump to accomodate psi requirement

Damn. You got it going on. Hoping over to FloraFlex myself shortly. Subbed for this one. Great growth.

 

[JASONBROTHER]

Nice grow Bro.
But EC 1.3 at this moment ， may be a little bit aggressive in Rockwool ？
i used to try abt 0.4-0.5 EC in Veg.

 

[SaintsSamilia]

Very nice set-up been debating taking this route in the future

 

[Bonesy512]

Damn, i guess i need to evaluate if they are being over fed then. I ran an incremental ec climb from .3 to 1.0 over 2 1/2 weeks then rose to 1.3 since the 20th.

Its definitely been full of learning curves

Full of shipping challenges as well, tray stands arrived yesterday about 15 days late. So lifted the trays and slid the stands in, had the legs trimmed 8” for my tent and luckily the rubber feet swapped easily.

also, my pump made it yesterday as well

EcoPlus Elite Series Electric MultiStage Jet Pump

1416 GPH, 22-87 PSI.
Plumbed out zone 1s manifolds to match Zone 2s layout. Need to add the air bleeds and wire up the solenoids to the Galcon 4 station controller.
Big week ahead, as i still work 60 hrs a week in construction management.
ill have to grab pictures later

 

[Bonesy512]

Ha, heres a photo my wife snagged of me with the pump.

 

[Bonesy512]

Heres a look at the tray stands and new 5L humidifier.

and a lil progress shot

 

[SaintsSamilia]

Very nice looking forward to watching this progress as this is where i believe my future grows are headed. Looking great man.

 

[Bonesy512]

Been in the Grow Garage most the afternoon.

replumbing the zones, and installing the pump

 

[Bonesy512]

Oh yeah, i do sprinkler irrigation

 

[Bonesy512]

Skipped yesterday’s feeding just cuz i think the blocks were a lil bit over saturated, So gave them some time to dry and they look great this morning. Needed that dry back i guess.

 

[Bonesy512]

Looks like im redoing the suction inlet tonight for the pump, couldnt get it to produce flow or pressure during its first fire last night. Although, I did get the drains ran to to the condensate pump and its auto draining my hand feeds. So that was a cool sight to see and feel proud that it works.
This drip irrigation has a steep learning curve.
