Titan flo-n-gro.

[scovedog]

Any one use this set up? It looks like there better than the competition, 4 gallon gro sites , 3 gallon insert, all 3/4 tee fittings, german made timer ect. What does everyone think of this? I think i might do this twelve pack and twelve in dirt , if this titan works out well than i will buy more buckets. Input please.

I use the Titan. And love it. With 18 sites you either max out the res at 55 gallons and fill daily or raise all the buckets 2 inches. I use 15 sites. And if your a soil guy you will love that you can get the fabric liners and use soilless and coco.

And the maxi jet 1200 pumps have no problem pushing the water a far distance. My res is about 20 feet away and not in the flower room.

i absolutely love the system. I have two 12 site systems plus two 6 site additions for 36 buckets total.

i love this system!! i used to run the cap ebb and grow and used to run 12 in my 4x8 space now that i have the titan i dropped to 8 in my space with much larger plants and im going to be prably dropping down to 6 on the next run. the pumps are much better as well as the control bucket, the sites are larger so that is nice too, also they make fabric inserts (which im using on my next run with 100% perlite) which are awesome.

these pics where taken a week ago so about week 5 they are currently at week 6 looking fatter

Nice DGT. If you go to 6 and have room you could start a drip system with your left over baskets. That's how I veg.

looking good man!! im right with you i converted my flood tray to a drip setup and straight ran out of room lol i had to use spare 4 outer buckets to house my other smaller 4 and only can fit 4 in my tray lol here is a pic of my tray. love the titan man i have never grown plants this size

 

[Warlock1369]

Nice. Guess we are just teaching the op other ways to use the system. Lol. And its easy to over grow a room in no time. And I'm liking the 80/20 coco mix. Plants are so stable I could push the buckets over before plant moves.

How do you guys get your plants to stay up when heavy flowering starts? Do you use tomato cages? The top colas usually end up falling all over each other if I flower when the plants are too tall.

Why drip instead of flood and drain on the ta ble?

 

[Warlock1369]

I use to need a cage. But with coco not really needed. Most of the time just a bamboo stake is all that's needed.

And the reason for drip over flood and drain for me was the res size. With a drip set up I only need 15 gallons. But to flood a 4x4 table I might as well just get another flo n grow. And I had all the parts around the house.

In one of my pics you can see I staked the main stalk for support and have them through a trellis netting for top support, this works well but some still fall through so I just do whatever I have to to get the stragglers to stay up top.

My answer is the same as WL, I have a 20 gal res that won't fill the tray unless I have at least 8 in there so when I dropped to 4 had to start them on top drip, works great though.

I'm looking into this system, I dont want to quit using pro mix though. Is this possable in this system? Were would I get the fabric liner for the pots?

Thanks ` The Guvna

This is a photo with the liners.

I use 80/20 hydro corn and coco. Hold everything in great. You can order the liners where you get the system. Its made just for it. Cost about 6 bucks each. And work good for pro mix.

How many floods per 24 hours with coco?

 

[Warlock1369]

I'm flooding 3 times. Probably could go 2 but I'm not that brave yet

 

[scovedog]

I am looking at buying and trying the 12 site out, How often do I need to change the water and how often do i need to put the nutrients in?

 

[Warlock1369]

I'm going 2 weeks a change. And for nutes I do a full load with change. A week later I add what ever amount of water I added the week before.

 

[scovedog]

In the 55 gallon drum, I am going to run the advance connoisseur bloom and sensi grow by advance. Do you know if I will have enough from start to finish if I purchase the 4 liter bottles of nutrients with the 12 plant site, if so will it do 24?

 

[Warlock1369]

Don't use that line so not sure. If you take the time you will know how much is needed. And you won't be using 55 gallons. I use 50 for 18 sites. You will be safe with 45 but 40 was the minimum needed but topped off daily.

I never change my res water except when switching to bloom and at the end of the cycle. The plants drink up half the 55 gallon barrel in a few weeks and I use the water for hempy buckets.

I add straight H20 or mix full strength nutrients to replace the volume of water used. I maintain PPMs around 1200.
