Can you get what you need from a Ro/Di system and turn it off or does it have to constantly run?
well its like 1 to 1, but you dont hook it up so that it filters all your water. You tap into your water line and install it with a shut off valve. Get you a 55 gal plastic barrel, and fill it up with ro, and shut it off. Then you have all your ro for at least a month..I know i'm probably gonna get my chops busted on this, but i meant like environmental waste haha. Don't shoot me, I've read that for every 1 gal of r/o water produced it dumps 3-4 gals of water to waste.
Maybe you could point me in the direction of a good system, because what I don't like is my tap water ppm after running it thru a catalytic carbon filter is 101ppm
agreed.
ya I think I have one of them on my filter... I have like 5 filters on my machine, and that is the first one..This kind, picked it up for 30 dollars, the guy at the shop said it filters out Chloramines/Chlorine
So is it one big daisy chained inline filter system?ya I think I have one of them on my filter... I have like 5 filters on my machine, and that is the first one..

minus the tank and spigot..
those plants today...And I know a little about scrog and SOG too..
I grow in the UC6 current culture under current system..

my system use 50 gal and I have it hooked straight to the ro filter. It can pull water when it needs it.. It has a auto top off valve so that it keeps the system filled to an exact level. I also have a ph controller that monitors my ph and adds calibration if needed. I change it out once in veg and once in flower. I have a chiller which maintains the water temp at 68, along with 350 watts of heating if it get to low.. Its quite the set up... These systems are so powerful I can only use half of the nutrients other types of systems and hand watering does.. So that is a big savings..Dope setup! I built a scrog pvc diy myself(my plants are tall enough to reach it though lol), so I'll hit you up if I need any help with that. I know I'm asking a lot of questions but curious about your dwc there. How often do you have to change out the reservoir, is it more costly as you are using more nutrients?
no its from all the oxygen that is in the water... They just grow super highways when you supercharge them with Dissolved Oxygen..Those thick sturdy stalks seem to be a trait of plants grown in hydro, I wonder if it has to do with the substrate not being as solid as soil, so they make up for it in the stalk.
That's cool, I've wondered why this phenomenon was common. That makes sense though, seeing you're using a highly aerated water in the rhizosphereno its from all the oxygen that is in the water... They just grow super highways when you supercharge them with Dissolved Oxygen..
