SNS 217 killed all of my spider mites - obviously its easier when plants are smaller
it kills eggs as well
and is non toxic

They stopped growing for a little while but they are back at it now.we placed screens over all the plants fir support and because the bulbs can not be in the canopy because they are so close. We also set up co2

Well we are using bottled co2, moved the air pump out of room. Then we hung up these screens we made quickly.

I think with just none plants a fifty gallon drum is fine. They are drinking more or less that a week. There is a drain built into the epicenter that you can connect to a hose and let gravity do its thing. At the start of veg i have the water covering the bottom of the net pot. I have started dropping the level though and will stop at the ridge of the bucket. This is about 90 gallons of water. I have been measuring

Since, we are waiting for the electrical work to be done at the end of the week. Today we transplanted the plants into the UC system and hung four 1000 watt metal halides in magnum xxl's. The PH was measured at 5.8 and the water temperature is at 63 and the room is at about 75 right now. Things are looking good though. We added some liquid karma to try and keep stretch down. We are also going to be foliar feeding some maxi crop as well. The roots are blowing up as well. I didn't bring my camera up with me this time, but I will get some new pictures soon. I forgot the ppm is about 680 as well. Sorry this is all cluttered and unorganized, but I think you guys get the point. I am very pleased :)

How does Karma help reducing stretch?

Thanks, I just set up 2 of these bad boys and just getting an idea. Your the only evo system I've seen, do you think you'll yield much more on the open bulbs vs. Reflectors?

I am not sure it really would depend on the amount of lights around each plant. I am only running 10400 watts. I think that we ended up vegging them too long and are way to big. Well see what happens. We flipped them and this is day two of flower.

On a side note, they are loving the half strength canna and the ph is awesome now. I am going to wait and take pictures when things start to blossom :)

just finished week three of flower and things are going good. Just waiting to pick up the grobot. we are returning the one we got and just got one that came with two sets of pumps. I am not sure if we are going to install it on this run. Things are going very smooth.

Having to have the bulbs above the canopy like you do it would likely be best to throw them horizontal with some bat wings. It would be a low cost fix to get more light on the plants and beef up your harvest. IMO

the lights were up to foliar spray. they are nearly resting on the screens when the lights are on. Thanks for looking out though :)

just a note on your spidermites...those little bastards.. i used organicide during flowering six week... it killsl them but must not kill the eggs... since like three days or so later you see them trying to come out elsewhere.
