Man, I honestly thought you were going for STOKED!! Ahahaha. I see pumped now in pukoed if I squint a little.Yeah im PUMPED… see how i spelt that this time… lol. Thisbis going to be far more exciting that the usual hydro grows.
As soon as I get this mess sorted, I'll be measuring everything. I've been waiting on a single circuit board for weeks now.Do you measure the res water or the res air/fog temp? Or both?
I'd be curious how much, if at all, the temp varies from liquid to vapor.
The laughing face emoji's aren't working, just confirm like.....but good one, I almost spit out my joint....I contemplate what it would be like going for a polar dip New Years day,,,,,,I don't do it but I do contemplate about it every year....."smiley face" " smiley face" fkin emoji'sPlease don't pick up my bad habits.
I'm contemplating giving up weed until these seeds are harvested. A little incentive to get it right.
A world without a stoned pipecarver is not a one I want to live in.

That is similar to what I did for my clone bubblers air line, The pump got so hot it heated the air into the bubbler, I ran 20 - 25ft of tubing through a bucket of cold water. It worked and kept the water around 68 - 70f but I had to either switch out the water or add ice cubes to cool it down at the end of the day because the water temp was in the mid 70's by then....I need a bigger pot or more air line coiled in the bucket next time around.So I'm at an impasse. I have a res temp of 90.1*F. That is because of the ultrasonic fogger. They put out a fair amount of wasted heat. The thing is, the plants look great and a couple are already showing roots out the bottom.
Trying to come up with a clever design to run the chiller in the res, not because the plants say they need it but because I'm worried that if I cannot control this better, I am asking for trouble down the road.
anybody ever try a wort chiller in a res?

I just ordered flexible a copper coil. I can plumb that right up to my chiller and get control over this instantaneously. I'm gonna have this issue X 4 when these move to flower, so I gotta hack something together over there too.That is similar to what I did for my clone bubblers air line, The pump got so hot it heated the air into the bubbler, I ran 20 - 25ft of tubing through a bucket of cold water.

Yup, I'm doing the second as a hack. I need to figure out how to do this without a chiller tho eventually.Take a look at the setups for peltier cooled video cards with copper plumbing and an external radiator. I would think you could come up with basic temp delta differentials based on cubic ft / watt / radiator delta.
Or, build a closed loop system with a chiller and copper coils on the bottom. That might be more efficient then thermoelectric.
I've just used virgin olive oil or bees wax. I start with a block, 2'x2' x7" I center a hole saw and mark 1/4 deep the bowls outside rim. I then drill the bowl out to the depth I want...once I have that I center the other end to the middle of the bowl and drill a small pilot hole 2-3" deep I can then use my 3/16" bit for the hole. I use the small as a pilot bit to prevent the long bit from wandering away from center. In the hard woods & metal the drill bit for the hole can wander out the side, top or bottom.Hey @PipeCarver , while I got you, I'm thinking about taking a stab at this cocobolo on my milling machine. I'll 3D print out a prototype, then use that model to cut it on the CNC mill at my warehouse. Got any tips for me on shape or anything like that? Do you seal yours or just linseed or something like that?
This is kind of what I'm dreaming of for my own setup. Have the foggers in a dedicated reservoir and push it into individual plant sites similar to multisite DWC or NFT.Mount the foggers externally
Think @Moe.Red and I talked about that before. Definitely some workarounds available for this.This is kind of what I'm dreaming of for my own setup. Have the foggers in a dedicated reservoir and push it into individual plant sites similar to multisite DWC or NFT.
I'd think you could get a lot of cooling just from that bit of travel through the lower ambient temps of the pipework.
The theory is that you have an atomized mist of water, nutrients, beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and beneficial fungi
No, not in my definition. To me, organics means naturally derived nutrients that require other organisms to break down further so the plant can use them.
Organic and organisms are not the same… how can beneficial organisms cause problems? Its done in hydro as well which you dont want organics in either.Beneficial fungi and bacteria are organic additives that can cause problems in aeroponic systems.
If I see it correctly, your system is a closed/recycling system which has some disadvantages compared to RtW/DtW systems. I don't think this can beat coco-hydro.
