really nice bro - now 1002 uses for zip ties - lol

reminds me of my old setup - except I would put drippers on each cube and in the slabs in between each cube

doing it that way allowed me to water several times a day

I do something with my cuts using white plastic grid stuff you can buy at home depot to diffuse flouro light

I also would put the slabs on this white grid to give them better drainage

Hey DS,

I'm just starting to figure out nutrient profiles. I understand the basics of the chart you posted but am wondering how you account for the trace elements that are 0.00. Also, that profile is for flowering only right or veg also? Finally, am I correct in saying that you mix your res's according to the blue highlighted columns from the chart and are good to let that recirc for 2-3 weeks? I've always wanted to understand the elemental breakdown/make up of nutes beyond just reading the label and guaranteed analysis. How did your buddy spurrs come up with that, does he somehow know the target profile numbers he wants to end up with then break down the individual additives (GH, calmag, protekt etc) by element and try to balance them out or something?

Hey ds your setups are super legit and super clean! Really like your idea with the clone tray inside the flood table and how amazing those roots look in those hugo's lol...Where do you get a tray like that, that will fit in say a 4 by 8 flood table so i can suspend the hugo's about an inch or two from bottom of flood table? That is what you where showing correct?
