Earl, what type of on/off (water/nutes) cycle are you going to use on the new and current aero setup. Im going to try one of those since I have most of the equipment except the rubbermaid tubs. thx Oh almost forgot, I like the new Aerorocket.

Hey Earl I have some pics for you of the vert grow and how your nutes turned out in the soil.... How do I get them on here is my big question? I am not at all comp literate. Also, I switched to mist, the hand watering around the bulbs was too much and too much of a pain to flush the way I need.... Do you use H2O2 in your aero and if so at what concentration... Thanks for any help and I look forward to showing you the results if I can figure out how to get the pics on here

Hey Earl, Awsome info! Plus REP for you for sure!
Quick question on your seed sprouting method. You let just the bottom of the net cup actually touch the water level correct? And you dont use any airstone or anything? Just let me sit in the tub so to speak drawing water up from the bottom of the net cups? Just want to make sure I understood correctly there.
Could one use Rock Wool cubes instead of the coco plugs and get about the same results?
Thanks for all the info and help!

You can use rockwool,
but it is considered "Old Tech"
Coco has less affect on pH
and is more environment friendly.
I think coco is cheaper.
As long as the coco is kept moist the seed will sprout.
Sometimes I start in the coco with just drops of RO every day.
Sprouting is easy in coco
The danger is keeping the coco too wet
after the seed has sprouted
I like to have an airline under each net pot.
Send me a link to your grow journal.

I got them on the computer but can't figure out what the URL they are asking for is.... I can post them in my profile straight from the comp, can you view them if I do that, or is that just for me.... I realy am full-on computer ill-iterate..... Bottom Hortilux popped this morning after only 2 months of 12/12, gonna finish with a Sunmaster conversion Halide untill I get the replacement from SS, they were cool about shipping a new one out pronto.... Never had a brand new bulb shit out like that before... Ok, enough rambling, sorry anyone that had to read this

And Earl, I will make a Journal of this next grow as I did not have a camera and just had a friend take some random pictures here and there.... I now have a cam and took some pictures of the little vedge room with the new DIY mister I made for the sprouts and little bubbler for the clones... Also my first attempt at regenerating.... I gotta go trim... will get it up and started soon and will throw a couple of the old pics from this last grow when I get a chance to sit here for a while longer
