That is unreal clean and well designed TF. Great job, that is really top notch.

Thanks guys. The build definitely came out great. Now it's just the long road to learning the ins and outs of running this style of RDWC growing. :rauch08:

Very impressive structure, super high tech action here!! One would guess you have a background in construction of some sort? Look forward to the progression..

Cheers :rollj:

Killer grow! I`m glad I found this

 

[TyKaycha]

Oh you bet I'm running the dual arcs. I have dimmable ballasts. No problem so far at all.

So dual arcs on dimmable ballasts aren't a problem? Nice to know! I've wondered if it was possible or not. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutly awesome, Its a great idea to keep the lights high. get some strech on, I made the mistake keepin them low in veg, wound up way too wide not enough high. Big Mistake. maybe its my levise jeans, or my lack o training dem hoes. but its my first run in my my new hoarhouse too.

Stellar build, I cant wait to build one where I hold the note on the prop again. Its wierd how different backgrounds in Construction, auto mechanics, racing, competition, plumbing, electrition, sprinklers, insulation, home boys, rap, raggae, rock and blues, can all come together in 1 place, share k-nowlage, and elevate the high.....

the plants look really great bro

 

[TrichromeFan]

Thanks alot guys.

Unfortunately the plants got a kick in the crotch, due to a mishap on my part.

I did a flush last res change with physan20 at 5ml per gal, and holy shit! Foam madness! I had to drain the flush earlier than I wanted, due to foam everywhere. I will post some pics. Long story short, the inside of the buckets foamed up to the point of floating the roots to the bottom of the lids. After I dumped that out, and refilled. Well.... I didn't look inside those buckets till 24 hrs later. Fuck! I see mostly dried out roots stuck to the inside of the lids. Screws me. I gotta say that 2 days later, and 4 out of 5 are looking pretty damn good, all things considered. Anyhow, let me get some pics up.

fuck

Foam of Doom

Ok,
I will definitely not try the same strength the next time I use the Physan20.
I would have looked it up here, but the site was down.

So I went with 5ml per gal. Oops.:doh

It got worse....

So as I said, for having the roots hung out to dry, not too bad.

But with the good and bad, comes the ugly.....

My guess is that if she doesn't start recovering soon, she's done for.

We shall see.

yikes 5ml/gal seems like a lot. i have flushed with physan20 before and only used 1oz for 120 gal and it seemed to be more than enough. that shit is really strong

 

[TrichromeFan]

I was just going by the little booklet that comes with the bottle.

The letter from groovy hydro (came with my hydro fungicide order) said to use 2 ml physan20 per gal.

Serves me right for not going light on the first time with the stuff.

 

[motherlode]

5ml (1 tsp) per gallon is for surface cleaning (spray bottle)

I may have missed it - why did you flush the system?

 

[COCOLOCO]

id use some full strgnth enzymes to clean your roots... also add Root Excellurator and Endo Mycorrhizae...

 

[easypleasie]

I hope they all recover from the overdose, bro. I recently used 15 ml for 50 gallons of solution and got a good bit of foam and that's with no airstones. Were you having root problems? If it's just maintenance, i'd stick with the hydro-fungicide.

 

[TrichromeFan]

The reason why I used the Physan, is to knock out the small amount of funk smell in the mpb's that two of my plants had. In the groovy hydro instructions, they talk of flushing with the physan20, then run the hydro fungicide as a regular in your nutes. Kinda like a 1-2 punch. I definitely see the rot and fungus potential with the DWC's, and especially MPB's, so I'm sure that I was over eager to really clean the crap out of them. So unfortunately I decided to follow the booklet, and not at least the groovy hydro dosages. Well, now the roots seem to be mostly re-hydrated and recovering, and hopefully I can get them back on track as much as possible. I will call round 1 the round of lessons. No surprise here. I just want to make sure to make it to the finish.
