Preciate the feedback, I’ve been having that “half baked” thought in the back of my mind of just doing it, but after today I will get some very soon!
I’m assuming there is a good ratio of how many rings to a certain size pumps to a certain size vessel container.
Would you mind sharing tour setup info please ?

I don't mind at all but for details go back and look in the beginning of this thread. I use two small aquarium pumps in the rez. I don't remember the gal/min but it's pretty much the basic size. One is to pump feed, the other is for fountain aeration instead of an air stone.

One pump could probably do 8 rings but don't forget what I mentioned earlier about the lengths of tubing all being the same. The size of the rez will make no difference unless it's taller than your rings when full. You could pipe in a siphon break for a tall rez, it's just more unnecessary work.

Then you need the Nearpow timers or something similar you can program to the second.

And as far as the size of the rings goes I think they are 6" and can do 1, 2 or 3 gal fabric pots. 1 it's a bit overkill, 2 is perfect and I'm in 3's now which are almost too big but work ok. I will eventually go back to 2's.

I've found keeping as little wet coco in the tent as possible helps me control humidity.

Seems like an awful lot of work and expense to grow a few plants unless your running a factory in there. The ol lady kicked your plants outdoors didn't she? Just put em in some pots with good soil, water and fertilize and protect and you'll be fine. I got three nice photo periods last summer and its more than I can enjoy, so why over kill ...if its for your own head? Must be living in illegal state , have kids or just bad neighborhood???? Trying my hand at auto flower seeds this season to have a crop in 10 weeks- mid July ,besides the photo periods that wont mature until October. 4 different strains this year too. Last years crop was Cake Bomb and the third plant was much smoother and stronger after I learned a few things on the first two plants. Washing and curing...be gentle and don't dry in the sun or in a hurry with fans blowing directly on plants....let them dry naturally. Will try hanging the whole plant in the basement instead of branches or buds.

It’s funny when the late bloomers come out like way way later… it’s like bruh your spot has been given away to another plant… lolol
I’ve noticed that happens with like young seeds, like whiteish cream color ones

This is great info man, thanks!!!

What about your reservoir? Are you using a 5 gallon bucket or something bigger?
I think to grow anything good good, ive noticed anything less than 3 gallon pot doesn’t produce much yield for me, but maybe it’s just a lack of dialing in light and water to a T

Definitely not an awful lot of expense…. And besides I personally look at it like an investment… although I get what you’re saying they’re plants, they don’t require much but soil, light, water and some TLC.
I’ve grown both outdoors and with equipment, and most times than not my equipment grows come out cleaner…. That’s just facts for me lol
And it seems like you grow for yourself which is cold but kinda selfish if you ask me… I try to grow more than what I consume to be able to give some away and I do, and it’s always much appreciated from people! It’s one of those little gestures that make people be like “man this person though of me” next thing you know your neighbors are dropping off fruit bags and cookies “all of a sudden”

1 gallon pot. Don't believe the hype. Size doesn't matter!!!

I use a 7 gallon BPA free reservoir like they sell for camping but it's now 5 gal because I cut a hole in the top of it lol. Looks like a big blue gas can.

Starting to see some explosive growth on the older ones. I'm going to just train them on the scrog until the babies catch up. I'm not a big fan of doing shit this way but I put myself in this situation so fuck it haha

Grownsince95 · Feb 27, 2026

One of the GG4 has topped itself...

The glue is such a genetic cluster fuck idk why I bother, probably gonna herm too lol

So, what do you do with ones like that? I have a couple that look weird/similar and I'm not sure I should continue with them.

It's just a mutation but not a terrible one. Seems to have slowed this gal down a bit but I'll give her time to catch up if she wants. Most cannabis has fucked it's cousin too many times and this is what happens lol. How does the old saying go? If you can't keep it in your pants, keep it in the family? Haha

Numbers have been good the past week. Always slightly erratic but within limits.

Fella i wish you luck with the shed grow. It just makes me sweat thinking about those plants closed up in there outside in the sun.

It makes me sweat thinking about the police helicopter with the UV heat sensor.

Grownsince95 · Feb 27, 2026

UV heat is some new shit lol
