My Amare, Hydroponics Hut, & SunCloak Grow

[PetFlora]

Your plants are a 1 on a the scale 10 is a 1 compared to real plants lmfao.
That pump uses absolutely no electricity and has boosted my output at least 50% if not more you goofball

1/10 huh? one plant grown under Amare SE 250

when I grow up, I can only hope to grow as well as you

Just for you "a Permeate pump does not increase the feed pressure at all. It decreases the back pressure against the membrane in Pressure tank systems by actually pumping the product water into the storage tank. For open (55 gallon drum, Rubbermaid container, etc) water storage systems it's a waste of money. In those types it doesn't do anything.

This is a perfect example of a product that is hyped by online sellers as a "Miracle" product that will do everything but your water changes for you if you buy it. I've seen claims of 50% reduction in waste, 400% increase in production, etc in an effort to sell these things to people who don't need them. If you have a pressure tank system, it will increase the tank pressure to the same as the feed pressure which is nice and will improve performance to the same as an open system.

They are an Item I don't normally stock (again, most people I deal with don't need them) but I can order. They Go for $45.00 w/ mounting bracket.

The booster pump on the other hand is almost a mandatory accessory if your water pressure is below 45 PSI or drops below 50F. At these feed water conditions, the RO unit is very inefficient and will not perform well.

As far as the positive effects on performance IME, the pressure increase will on the average give a 20-40% improvement over membrane rating".

Petflora are you baked?? No BLUE

I get some crap for it, and it is another step, so

lol,that last pic though
over 50% increase and my water went from 10 to 14 ppm down to 2 to 4 ppm so buy whatever floats yer boat.a good,cheap way to boost ro production "ime" you quoted some guy selling booster pumps lmao.i grow medical grade buddy,not just massive larfy non trichome autos like your posting haha.


i couldnt even use that shit you posted in my hash or brownies lol,have nice day

Well, my SE-450 gets 3'10" about @ 32" w/ lenses. But that's just footprint. Intensity the plants can handle will vary between strains. I'm @ 29" from the tallest buds right now. W/o lenses it does well @ 18"-22". But I tested it @ 7" & it did great except the monos weren't mixed. My last grow I didn't use the lenses.
As far as the Pro-9 goes. I was under the impression it's to be used 3'-4' away w/ lenses. Maybe down to 2' w/o. But I'm not sure. Those monos have lenses right?

Yea. I'm just trying to see if I'm giving them light burn but I'm at least 18" away w/o lenses

Long over due. Gotta represent for my man victor and show hybrid what these autos are all about.

Real nice work bro. It's good to have some bigger growers around.
Many of the tent guys just can't understand what I'm talking about & used to argue w/ me over shit they knew nothing about. It was incompatible or unrelatable communication.
BigSmo's doing big things, getting better & bigger every run.

Cool! I'll be by later on to check it out. You're definitely changing the way growers view autos, that's for sure.

@sixstring2112. Quick question for you maybe you know by experience.
The first 2 weeks into flower I made what I feel is a huge mistake. Never happened before, so in not sure if it negatively effected me though. I feel like it did.
When I set-up the led room, I tested the Co2 ppm. It seamed to be @ a good setting of between 12-1500. So I put my meter back in the HPS room cuz that's the big girls. Last week, I put the meter back in the led room & I was @ 2500+ . I fixed it since.
Do you think that stunted the growth?
I know to much is bad.
The led room seams significantly behind in comparison to the HPS now, which is only 1 week ahead of the led room.
Never had this problem before.
I haven't googled it yet & figured I'd ask you to see your opinion.
Maybe it's all in my head as usually I check a room one day & it doesn't even look the same cuz they pack on the meat overnight, Ya know.
I hope this didn't stunt them to much. Really want to show people how well these LEDs work.
Usually I'm riding on the low end of the ppm but this room is sealed tight & was primarily just a veg room.
What's your thoughts?

 

[sixstring2112]

It wouldnt be a problem until you go past 10,000 ppm and even then it would need to be that high for a long time. Friend of mine was running his up to 20,000ppm every night for a week trying to kill mites and his plants took it well. Lol

 

[PetFlora]

Sorry, but I need to respond to ss comments for the benefit of others regarding permeate v booster pump.

I actually worked for Aquathin (international company) that has the patent on RO/DI. About year ago I asked the owner whom I know well, and consider a friend, which is better. He too said an actual pump is best

Now, to your comment about my plant, well, it was a sat smart ass. Most of us know sats don't produce as many trics as indicas

 

[sixstring2112]

Sativas dont get frosty? Lmao

Sativas are known to have a higher THC content then Indicas in general.
Now w/ all the hybrid strains, you get the best of both.

Thanks. Makes me feel a lil better. The meter was pegged so it said nothing but a + sign. But I doubt I was that high. About 2 weeks of it. The girls didn't show any signs of stress so in probably fine.
I've jacked it up to get rid of mites before. Didn't really work for me. But I wasn't 10-20,000 I doubt too.
Did it work for him?
I'll be getting some sort of RO machine for the new place going up soon. The water there comes out @ 150 & is gross. I won't make coffee w/ it, so I won't feed it to my girls.
There's so many options for RO & filters these day, I'm not sure what to go w/?
Don't like the idea of wasting 50% of the water to run off.
I've seen a big filter system that claims RO w/ no waste @ the grow store but am Having a hard time believing it works well.
I'll be looking into RO next month for the new opp.

 

[sixstring2112]

No it didn't work for my buddy either,almost seemed like the mites got stronger haha.
I have seen a few new systems that say less or no waste water. Its only a matter of time before someone designs one thats affordable.
Its no worse than any of these outdoor growers/farms that lose 20 to 50% to evaporation or just runoff.my waste dumps on a tree which has gotten huge since i started doing this 5 years ago

HELL YA! UPGRAAAAAAAAAAADE!
:d

 

[Hybridway]

HELL YA! UPGRAAAAAAAAAAADE!
:d

Believe me, I wish I didn't need one there. My other opp doesn't need one. I'm not a fan of RO.

So much easier when the tap works just fine huh.......... my R/O setup is collecting dust not sure how many GPD you need but hit me up if you're interested.

 

[Yodaweed]

As a neutral party i'm gonna have to say @sixstring2112 buds look a lot tastier and better grown, @PetFlora buds look like mine when I first started growing and didn't know how to properly use my nutrients and I burnt the hell outa my plants.

Thank you! Gdp?
I'll be trying to buy a new & improved RO system along w/ a whole house filter. Don't like brushing my teeth or showering in this recycled shit water, lol, but not even funny.
I can't believe this city provides this toilet water.
Must be why there's so many crack-whores & fugly people around here. Ha!

 

[Evil-Mobo]

gpd=gallons per day

Ah yeah bro then do the whole house thing we don't need a crack ho on the street trying to pawn off an SE-450 lol, if you do though come and see me lol

Pet tries. He just grows for personal use.
Can't really compare the two, Ya know!
