yeah you always gotta have a backup plan... I never had a bucket crack this far in the grow before it was purely quick thinking I always said if one of those bitches ever crack while its growing this is what I was gonna do and it worked thank god lol. Im still in disbelief this shit is bonkers crazy. I'm glad I caught it tonight and not 3 days from now. Man oh man Im thankful though at least they didn't all just drop dead on me or something like that. Id rather have one of these problems then one of those problems any day of the week. I hope this thread helps someone one day. Or at least gives them an awareness cuz that shit was real lol.Very nice work- quick discovery, quick action, saved the day and the crop- win!
In case this happens to me, I have a couple 5 gallon buckets all set up with my bulkheads in place, ready to just pop into line with the rest of the system anywhere they're needed. Take me 20 seconds, even while holding up a plant.
I wondered about stress when I saw how uniseals worked, I like the low stress approach of bulkheads better, even if unit cost is a bit higher.A bit higher?? Lol.. I know you don't use 3 in PVC, but the UC does. Going 3/4 in as you do bulkheads make since. When running a UC we don't have that 3/4 in option. The cost effectiveness is no longer there. I have searched and found 3 in bulkheads, in bulk, for around $25 a pop. I have found uniseals for around $5. When running so many buckets that cost is not justified, especially when the issues are very rare surrounding uniseals and are usually more user error or bucket failure.. just my opinion...
