my 3 stages of flower

[sqydro]

im only gonna run 600s but im going to show u what heath taught me about enviromental control and dialling your room. you goin down OG lol just wanna say thanks again for all the help u guys have gave me

if this is what i can do in dwc think of my aero beasts lol this was vegged under 400w MH vert bulb gettin flowered with 2 x 600w positioned around it and another tree of kalischnapple

Squid, The challenge is on... I hope you built the SS system... Not the new. Stink system from the book.. You gotta make 3 so....

I put on insulation on the pipes and I like the pipes better, they have good flow of gravity.. I also have a chiller for each container.. Its def not necessary but gives me complete power in having cool roots..

I am trying a way to Add a 4th flowering system and harvest every 2 weeks.. See if you have the same veg set up as SS you will have a lot of extra clones in the veggers..

So you have no worries losing any... Except for time offourse...

But I def noticed that the flowering system could use even more improvement. I would add another rail ( to make 4 rails 16 plants) and use pipes to drain instead of fitting into a cutout. With a chiller per res you could add a larger pump. 1600w of light per system. And add a fourth flowering system..could see a set up with 4p every 2 weeks. Much more professional? But you need 4 1/4 hp chillers and 6400w for lights..

Coud easily fit in one room..





But I think SS can blow us out the water..lol.. He doesn't even try... I think we just bore him with redundant questions... Well, I can speak for myself....

yeah well im keepin my cards close to my chest and i wont be running perpetual il be doin 5 rails in one room external res, it will be beautifull, ul see soon lol

nice should turn out great... cant wait to check out the five rails

what are the good thing to know that you learned from heath...?

 

[sqydro]

just enviromental control mate, always have great air exchange, 2 x per min if pos this eliminates the need for CO2 ime, as ur bringing in new air constantly co2 is only worth it if u have ur room absolutely dialled to perfection otherwise it will prob go to waste, always have ur res temps at 19deg and have as much DO as possible in there thats what gives u the explosive growth in hydro, his vertical grows are the true eppitamy of growing in the best way and most efficient ive seen him pull 2+ gpw from 1 x 600w bulb in a 4ft x 4ft space the man is without a doubt growing genius! 76oz from 1 plant under 1200w speaks volumes

anyway enough about heath....

SS have u ever ran chem nutes in these set ups? im thinking of it as im having serious trouble getting botanicare, ive been offered canadian xpress or something with all sort of head masta and potash boosters organic range meant to be good in aero but i fear change lol

 

[superstoner1]

no. i ran technaflora in dwc to begin with but the botanicare is sooooooo much more forgiving and taste/aroma is fantastic and i dont flush.

its killing me i cant get it at all anywere in the uk and im having trouble getting the range u have, i can get a package of liquid karma pbp grow bloom and aqua shield, would the 4 of them suffice?? and my GW powder

 

[superstoner1]

yes, but you will need calmag and a sweetener.the girls like the carbs in late flower.

i love hortilux , but not in digital ballasts. ushio now. and after having a magnetic ballast flame out on me ill never have another. my total footprint for 3 side by side systems is 52"x96" which has been great for 2 1k's and i recently got rid of my air cooled reflectors, bought a light meter and parabolic reflectors that allow tons of adjustment for best spread. with the barabolics i can only run 2 over my area so im not sure what ill do with the third ballast i just got, maybe run a bare mh at times.

What would the chance be, of an old magnetic (1992) ballast, stored in a basement, "Flame Out"???

Does this method work with RDWC? Would adding an air stone to the water source give the benefits of DWC?

with regards to your DWC question it alread has teh bennifits of DWC as its suspended in air, in fact it has more bennifit as there is no air in DWC only DO (dissolved oxygen, this comes from the air bubbles popping on the surface and aggitating the solution not the air in the bubbles them selfs.

an air stone would do no harm but no good either , infact it would do more harm than good if im honest heat up ur solution there a sponge for bacteria good and bad, and its more equip u dont need. if u want DWC check my sig. if aero SS is the man to help u mate best of luck

Thanks for the info!!!! Some one else thought DWC was the ultimate.

 

[superstoner1]

i decided to pop some new strains this week. i have had seeds for 1-2yrs and were all ordered from worldwidemarijuanaseeds.com except for one. i did papaya, hash passion, double gum, and atf(donated from a fellow stinkbuddy).

im one of those people check put my threads in my sig LOL

also SS i got me some blue mango x jazzleberry jam some ak47 and some purpleberr bx cuts from a friend lovely lovely

 

[oceangreen]

not so mini, its 5'x10'. flower room is 6'x10'. triple vegger just sits perfectly there and i wanted work space. when clones are rooted (10-14days) they go to veg. veg plants that are going to flower will give me cuttings for cloner. dont know what v1.1 is, i never used stinks plans just design.

so after 14 days they root and then you give them full strength nutes for veg. they don't burn?

I am begging to realize this your way is completely different than stinks. Its perpetual, that makes it similar, but you systems are different, nutes, methods.

It should bee the SS is all honestly, and since you are pulling way more, you get the title

 

[oceangreen]

yep,just went through entire thread again, great read, this thread...

 

[superstoner1]

my designs, basic nutes and schedule all came from stink, really not that much different at all, just improved. yes plants go to cloner to vegger, just like stink. yes with nutes, but my nute recipe is half of his.

 

[oceangreen]

SS, can you go into more detail in regards to the pipe size you use for the feed line in the VEGGER system.

and more the pipe along the way, you have the shut off valves and then it goes to the 1/2 pvc manifold in the containers.

Can you let me know when you did the conversion from the bigger pipe to the 1/2 inch pvc manifold??

thanks SS.

 

[superstoner1]

veg pumpngoes to 1" pvc manifold and reduces to 3/4" at the valves and then reduces to 1/2" at the sprayer manifold
