Jigfresh's Closet Flooded Tube Vert Scrog - 1000w

[rzza]

I think ill get another 20# tank, this one lasted two weeks at 5000 PPM!!!!!!!!!!! I had no clue it was so high i just calculated my cubic ft and set the flow gauge to 1. anyhow i confirmed the digi meter it will be ordered tomorrow you will se pics soon and ill dial it in with a timer. then i will adjust daily if needed. then ill buy a controller in time.

no dehumid cause im hoping my a/c does it for me, its on all day just set to 78 degrees and heater set to about (analog) 70 degrees. so the ac is always running and i THINK drying the air. either way ....i will put the dehumid on the to buy list. thanks.

 

[whodatnation]

Yeah ac removes moisture out of the air too.
Subbed to your journal btw.

 

[jigfresh]

Is the AC on during lights off? That's when my humidity skyrockets. Usually 15% or lower during the day and around 40-50% at lights off. So assuming they are off, I would say a dehumidifier would be crucial when the lights go out. PM sucks.

Man... aren't you glad you asked in my thread... and that whodat watches.

Lol... my theory in flushing is that I save money on nutrients, hehehe.

Hes got that heater and they can put out a dry heat so it would also remove moisture,, but none the less a dehumidifier is quite necessary in our "hobby".

Id do believe in flushing when using synthetic nutes though, just not organics. I flush all my hydro for 5 or more days in dwc. Rockwool can hold more salts and nutes as well, I like just using hydroton in net pots.

Hey jig! go catch my double post update in the 6 the one in my thread too lol

More plants, bigger plants. Even if they seem to big, remember "Fuck it." lol just keep pushing them through, and use up all that light you went through so much trouble to utilize, you can rock the shit out of that, I know you can. Veg the living hell out of your plants, the benefit to your system is that you can have a solid crop start to finish in hydro, and constantly be rotating plants in soil. You supplement, and cash crop at the same time, awesome. Or you can drown it like you said, drowning does help a lot more than nothing at all, but flushing is important IMO, but since you have so little medium, and so much water, drowning would almost be the same thing, alternatively you can drown for 1 day in a bucket of water, change the water, and continue drowning. Just in case, I don't know, I'm OCD as fuck, I cross methods all the god damn time just to cover my bases, but sometimes it shoots me in the foot.

Build a higher up shelf to test clones and seeds straight from 12/12 to just test things out. Of course when bringing home new clones, you always want to quarantine for 2 weeks, you will always be mad at yourself if you didn't. Nobody has a perfect garden.

hahah hey joz

Cant veg too long for those 6 inch tubes Hydro makes roots go crazy and a clog would blow big time. Id do 12/12 from rooted clone in that beast... And hes gonna have buckets on the bottom oh lord I can just see it... It wouldent hurt to toss in a few 600ds either

 

[rzza]

600ds? u talkin bout lights? i was thinkin of splitting off my 2 1k to 4 600. drop on in each corner and enjoy whats 600 DS??

jig the air and heat are both on all day and night, the ac blows room temp air when the ac isnt kicked on and the heater just shuts itself off over 70ish degrees.

hey shelves sounds fun too !! I can very easily raise and lower the 6 inch piping anytime as well


welp, im headin out so go move the rez and air pump to the outside. pics to follow. and ill start a journal once i get dialed in i would be sorta embarrased to do it at this point.

 

[Endur0xX]

jig lemme know your thoughts and criticism please.

just a thought : Once all the plants are big and are all leaves and branches pointing towards the lights, dont you think that they will be a lot of pressure on your pipes... I dont know how well you glued everything together but if the pipes start to move around you may end up with leaks... you may want to increase the rigidity... awesome setup though, good luck

thanks. i have some of that steel wire and i want to add alot more supports. i was thinking like every 4 holes or so and use them for plant support as well....

I didnt glue anything i just put them together and had the water flow go the same way as the pipes overlap ...you know what im sayin right? LOL and then i used waterproof tape and sealed like that. i have a small leak in each of the four corners, very minor and i would imagine easy fix but havent got around to it yet.

i think the 6 inch duct will be temporary, it only cost me 60 in pipe and 30 in tape. ill destroy it soon and build one with either pvc or something else even more creative.

at that point i will ad more rez's and seperate the pipes ...

 

[rzza]

i just figured it out ....you meant 600s and the d was fat finger syndrome. im retarded.

 

[jigfresh]

mine's just stuck together too. No glue or anything, hehe.

 

[jigfresh]

Took some pics just now. Camera died in the middle of the photo session. Here's the highlights of what I got. Not bad for 2 and a half weeks in 12/12.

Haha... just looked at them. Pretty shitty pics. I'll get better ones using a flash when I charge my little camera. I'll keep these small though, as not much to see here, lol

[rzza]

this is your first time growing these strains jig?

 

[jigfresh]

Yep. I've actually never grown the same strain twice. And this is my 7th grow. This grow makes it 14 strains I've run.

Just for fun... this is what I've run:

Hindu Skunk
White Widow
Purple Kush
Casey Jones
Sour Grape
Querkle
Odyssey
Sour Kush
Larry OG
Banana OG
Herijuana
D-OG Kush
NY-47
OG Kush

And I would have run (if they didn't die)
Herijuana X New Blue Diesel
J-1

 

[rzza]

sick bro i have a hindu kush thats flowering and i have high hopes for. it has the best structure of any plant ive grown thus far i do believe.

Nice strains, is there reasons why you dont grow the same strain more than once?

 

[jigfresh]

I like smoking different stuff.
