here's an idea for you
replace the two L shape on the top of the support beams with a T shape connector, this will give you an extra spot to mount
then make a rectangle shape tubing with another T's to attache to the top support beams, drill through the tubing to weave your "removable net" inside the rectangle shape then mount it on to on the support beams

SOG...Dude you are the man, i was just trying to design on paint.LOL That just saved me a big embarasment.
I love it! bubler,sog, stink...YOU GUYS ROCK!!!
One thing you can add is a support pipe centered on each end that holds the co2 tubbing running the length of the posts above the plants... then you can just plug one end into the feed line for all 3 units.
BRILLIANT!!!!
Actually, I was thinking of building it myself. There is a place online that sells LEDs and they charge $120 for 1000 of the red ones I'm looking for. I'm still looking for a good place for blue and other colors, best price they have is $400 for 1000 of the blue I want.are you making the led units or buying them?
I bought one and it works great. I wanted to make one since there is not much to it at all. I took mine apart in the first 5 min I had it. The problem is the 10mm super bright led's of these next generation lights are like $3 bucks apeace. I have recently became a light vender for a large company. My cost on them is Like $2.50-3.50 depending on the color of red or blue. They ones you buy are cheaper than making them unless you live in hong kong or china were they make them. My 112 led unit cost me less than $100 I cant buy the led's by themselfs that cheap. I really like the way my led works though. gettin ready to order some super big cfl and some hid lights next week. Maybe them led's will come down more, They allready have since last year when I started looking at them. peace
I've seen some real cheap ones on eBay, but all the sellers are in China and I don't know how good the quality is. I'm thinking of making a test purchase of a hundred for like $10 just to try them out.
By the way, these are the low power LED. 1000 of them will be run at like only 50-60 watts total or so. My goal is to build 3 panels, one for the veg and 2 for the flower. If I could get it to work it'd be a dream come true, 180 watts to run what is now using up about 550 watts now, what with cooling fans and all.
Don't know if I can do it, but I think it will be fun to try. And the experimenting will be good for me, heh.

so you want to also incorporate a co2 feed line at the site level,
hmmm... very interesting idea
out of the two sets of support beams we usually have
used the internal ones in the diagram to build the net over
then shorten the outer ones for aesthetics,
the shorter ones can be made bit taller and sealed on one side, and a quick connect for the co2 on the other end
you can also make this a stand alone line that taps into the current support beam mount location or a simpler drop stick style
that can be dropped into any location
something like this?

You could drill holes in the plant supports and run a string like a shoe lace. But...
It seems to me people spend too much time trying to fix something that's not broke.
My plant supports work well as they are. You have support on both sides of each plant. You have unlimited places to tie the plants onto the supports.
The plants help support each other along with the twist ties. I'm able to move the branches around when needed (for more light).
Check out the first photo and ask yourself what is wrong? All I can see is a whole shitload of Blueberry. The biggest batch I've grown by far!
When I look at these photos I don't think "this sucks! I need to fix everything!"
True genius lies in the ability to make something simple, not complex.

No you don't...with pleasure Dirt

You want your CO2 released as high as possible because CO2 is heavier than air.
If you released it at mid level it will just pool on the floor.
There are two good ways to release CO2:
1) Buy a CO2 hose. It's a hose with little holes that run the entire length. Run this over the top of your plants. This is what I use.
2) Attach the hose that comes with the regulator to the back of a circulating fan. The fan will blow the CO2 around the room and help circulate the air also.
Both of these solutions are simple and have years of proven success.

A lot of people love the Kush strains. NYC Diesel is like that. Great taste and smell.
Those Indicas knock me on my ass though! I can only smoke them late at night. They make me into a zombie. Kind of like "Night of the Living StinkBud" if you know what I mean.
I like a little more Sativa in my bud for the day. I have a strain called Purple Silver. It's clone only and the best of the best.
It tastes and smells just like Welches grape juice. I shit you not. The high is a perfect balance of head and body.
I wish all you guys could grow it!

this is really brilliant! I like the way you think and design, very impressive. But I agree with Stinkbud in that it's just way more simple to do it his way, and ditch the nets.here's an idea for you
side view
I tried the whole net thing, didnt work for my carefree style of growing. I've seen pics of SCROG grows that blew me away... but too much work.
Keeping it simple keeps it easy. Still, your design skills are awesome. +rep man.
Also, is Bubblerking the only one who replaces bulbs every grow? that'd cost a fortune, I'm way too cheap for that.
great thread, very addictive.
I did a variation of stinks system... but with flood and drain, and it's ridiculously easy.

through this together for Dirthawker
myself, ill be going with SB style supports
You did. This line: "I wanted [Stinkbud's] designs, but lower profile." I can't waste all that height. I'm not deviating from the prove formula because I can, but because I have to. Just look at the tiny cab I have to work with... Wish I had the means to imitate Stinkbud entirely, but I can't. Plus, it leads to other innovations this way. Many people on just this one thread have taken Stinkbud's designs and added their owne personal flavor - for better or even sometimes worse. Maybe even Stinkbud will incorporate a few of these new ideas into his setup, you never know.
My two cents.

dude dont mess with the led's unless there at least 10mm ones or they just dont put out the same amount. even if you use a shit load of low power ones they just dont have the mcd's you want. THis is why people who tryed led's when they first came out didnt like them cause they didnt do much. now the newer generation led's 10mm or bigger are very good. but not cheap. the higher the mcd rating the better. the low power led's wont help much unless you have them dam near on top of the plants. Ive bought a few books and did countless hours reading online pros and cons of the led's and they types. everyone with the lowpower led's end up quit using them and selln them. the high power ones like potpimp or I have work great. I have to turn my plants every day cause they lean twards the side that my led's are on. The love it.

lol stinkbud thers nothing complex about a net i personally cant figure for the life of me why someone would want to go in there garden and use bread ties to hold up there buds if you have a net use ziptie and forget about it but hey what do i know kiss is rule and netting is as simple as it gets just think no more of getting your hands and clothes reaking of bud once my netting is put up i just relax and watch my buds get huge not dam i got to go in my room and use some ties to hold up my branches but to each his own a true genius is alwalys open mineded not my system is great and cant get any greater like the commet about replacing your bulbs everyround who does this does it really work try it u just might shock yourself peace bros knoldge is power and a closed mind will never let u excell

look at my leaf ask yourself what do u see indica or sativa or a perfect mix
For me, the only thing I want to add to stinks system is the eventual automation of water and nutes, then it would be the true set it and forget it setup! But I can't complain, for my first grow I think things are progressing well! You can check out my journal in my sig!

hey stink
If this idea has alrighty been brought up sorry this post is long as fuck lol. Anyway reading high times they were talking about the idea of using fog from a fogger instead of sprayers. I read more and am incorporating this idea into your brilliant aeroponic setups. It seems like it would work great filling all the gaps with fog giving every inch of roots great oxygen, moisture, and nutrients. Also you wouldnt have to build all those damn pvc things with all those pumps you could hook systems together and run them off one fogger if they have the same nutes therefore preventing the use of the 1/2 inch pvc, all those 1/2 inch pvc fittings, and all the misters. Also there will be no nutes or any pvc shit in the roughneck rez. so this will be more room for fog and roots. They are saying now that this idea of fogponics is the future of hydro especially in this sort of a set up. My seeds are sprouting now cheese, trainwreck, white rhino, great white shark, and lemon skunk plus a couple of purple kush clones that i will take when the seeds get a little bigger for a uniform grow. Seeds are sprouting now I have only built the cloner so ill work on getting a system set up and ill let yall know.
