Trees are for fun not for effiency

hey donk, could you tell me how you regulate flow to each plant as it looks like your just using barbed t's on your feed rings.. Ive just set up a cheap drip system with 1, 2gph dripper per plant but the area getting wet is very minimal compared to the pot size(20g). I was gonna copy your feed rings but was told i wouldnt be able to regulate flow without drippers. Thanks

yep 1/4 barbed T's on the rings. I use 3/4 pvc ball valve before each ring

Im liking the idea of 8 vertical 600's with 6-600s over head. I could see that putting out some serious quality

I remember seeing TK run verticals with a couple horizontal 1000's over head

Beautiful! I just saw at home depot today that they have quarter inch ball valves for the micro tubing. I got a mini chubby honestly because I use drip rings too!

It's hard to picture unless you have done it. But 4lbs in my buckets is obtainable,

Trees have been the most efficient way I have grow to date. I only veg in the buckets for 7 days then flip.

is this logged somewhere. 7 days and u pull what.?

^^^ he also forgets to mention that he uses 8,000kwh per month for a 8k set up, which is the like running a 20lighter, so probably not as efficient as he claims

But one branch or two pays the bill.

Day 43

some canopy shots

lower bubba kush

another downside of trees...besides the forever veg

shit falls all over the place when the weight packs on. Yoyos help but you need a ton and its a bitch to get around to use em.

I have plenty of idea's for cage designs.....but trying to get em kiss style. where there not a hassle to make.

the plat and bubba nugs are small but super dense. when my friend ran em they only shrunk to 65-75% of wet size

Those are looking mighty sweet man!!! Was wondering if you could tell me what kinda ppm you've been using through flower so far? And how do you know how much they can handle?

GodZsoN · Jul 10, 2011

Looking good.. Like the upside down idea.. Pack'n on the weight

Donkdbz · Jul 11, 2011

Been running 1.9 EC so 950 on 500scale. but.....my amount of runoff and not been so good so every 3rd or 4th day. Topping res off with just RO and knocking the EC to below 1 for a day or 2 then back to normal.

Tip Burn on newer growth.

Donkdbz · Jul 11, 2011

The upside down was not on purpose and you want to avoid it. The buds start lying on top of each other and get no light. I was saying its a downfall of my poorly planned plant support.

mrdizzle · Jul 11, 2011

hey bud that tip burn is usually cal-mg uptake problems, happens all the time with trees once you add pk boosters. still a good idea to flush thou,

I used to flush everytime I would refilled my res, I would add 20gal in my 44gal res, ph it , then run the pumps until it was all gone, then refill with regular nutes

Jalisco Kid · Jul 11, 2011

I would get a couple bags of yo-yo's. The weight gain would more then pay for themselves. Good luck on your cosecha. JK

Donkdbz · Jul 11, 2011

I had 65mg 130Ca and 210K at peak. so ratios are good I think I just had some salt buildup in the medium.

I went through 4 bags of YoYo's. I just gave up after that. Too hard for me to get in there without snapping any more branches
