to be honest ive changed mine........
i use 10 sprayers per post.........so 20 per unit per pump........
the pressure is still great and it gives u more room for mistakes.......
i figure if a few plug i still have enough to keep up the crazy growth

thanks for the quick response! I have one more question if u dont have the collar on how much water is escaping for you guys? I am just nervous that my plants wont be getting enough water I plan on starting clones in it that are in rock wool cubes and am nervous it will dry out... I am using the 396 pump with 18 sprayers and it doesnt seem to be pumping out nearly as much as a fountain pump that is 405 that I got from home depot.

Heres a quick test loosen the collar around your pump cord and see how wet the top gets.

Just checking to get some input from those running Co2, what's the optimum temp range for co2 enrichment?

I've heard that it's better to have the temps higher (80-85 range), but I'm running like 75 degree's right now, is this too cold?

I'm also looking for another 8 week finisher to run with my BBK, got suggestions for an 8 week strain with decent "daytime smoke" appeal? What happened to the link for the list of strains ran in the Stinkbud System?

Hey Donk...hope all is going well with your grow. You still going to have to pull it soon? Hope not.

I was wondering if you can still going to put up some more pics and the measurements? Also, would love to see the changes you can make to have a smaller footprint for the unit. Thanks!:peace:

I never made any plans. I just thought it out in my head but I will get around to better pics and measurements this weekend plus a couple lil changes I would make for those looking for a smaller footprint.

Yo BigB - check the plans, notice how the sprayers sit in the center of the netcups - allowing 2 sprayers to hit all but the end sites - which already benefit from being downstream. The sprayer on the end of the bar on the capped end of the post, sits closer to the center of the cup than the others due to space constraints.

I run 6 holes per post, with the sprayer set 3 inches OC behind each cup. I run 18 sprayers total - but in a 3 post system I have quite a bit more distance to travel. I went with the EcoPlus 633. Also - the sprayers work better mounted perpendicular to the spray bar on the flower units. In the clone and veg units I run them parallel to the spray bar. One word of caution when going with bigger EcoPlus pumps... the bigger you go, the higher the minimum water level they can drain. The EP 633 will not drain my 25 gallon Botanicare res down to a manageable level for me to lift. I need to throw a LittleGiant in to drain it all the way.

With rockwool - they may be too wet! Rockwool holds water more than any other medium and overwatering it is easy. Keep an eye on it at first - but I am sure they will be plenty irrigated.

Hey LR...do you run into any problems with heat using the larger EcoPlus 633? Since you're using the larger 25 gallon container...probably not. You say you're running a 3 post stink system...do you have any pics of what your set up looks like. I'm trying to look at as many different versions of the Stink system as I can before deciding on what mod's I'll make for my own. Thanks...
