12 oz. Honestly I think 8-10 too, but ninja already took that guess ;) It could easily be 12. just takes 3 4oz plants.

My grow store started selling brewed tea too, but I think it's slightly different than this recipe. They have this big machine that is constantly brewing many gallons of tea.

jpreal you must live in/near Riverside, CA? I graduated high school in Riverside. :)

I could see that having an effect, but I agree it's probably more to do with soil vs hydro and grower skill. I have heard that high temps will cause increased resin, but I can't say I've heard anyone talk about cold temps. I think most growers have more trouble with high temps than low temps. ;)...

Hi Heisenberg, I HAVE actually read through this entire thread. While I'm sure I forgot more than I remember, I did try to find answers to my questions by searching! Recently, someone asked about a lack of foam during brewing. Is this OK? I don't have a way to measure the temps of my brewing...

Res is sitting around 61 with fish tank heater. I'll be putting some insulation between the res and the concrete this weekend. That should get me to the 65 I'm shooting for. I also added a heater to my RO holding tank. It will be getting some insulation right after the res does! Plants are...

Hey Roomie. They look happy. I try to do my training right before a 'flood' cycle while the plants are a little 'limp'. Less accidental breakage that way, but I still snap stems occasionally. I've broken 2 far on my grow. Don't worry about filling your screen. I can't tell the dimensions real...

A couple of my friends built a system like that. The biggest problem I see is the flow rate. The roots will start to fill that PVC pipe. They won't completely clog the pipe, but the water you're trying to pump through the pipe begins to move too slow. You either have water coming out the plant...

Thanks Heisenberg. I just don't know how I feel about having it in my fridge. For now I can put it outside I suppose. I suspect if it freezes, the bacteria and fungi will die?

Looks good man. Glad you already flipped. That screen looks full!

I have a question about brewing the tea. Is it OK to put the bucket into the grow room? My basement is cold, and the instruction to say to brew at "room temperature". And a related question... When I refrigerate the left over tea, how cold does it need to be? If my basement stays in the low...

Hey Roomie. Plants look great! You could flip that anytime and you will be happy. I agree with TC, move more of those branches out to the edges. The center looks real dense compared to the perimeter. Did you have a # of buds you are shooting for? It looks like you have a lot of tops in there...

I think I understand the point you're trying to make. You're saying that, for the Ebb & Gro, the inner buckets 'stick' in the outer buckets, right? I had not really noticed that, but after you brought it up, I guess the outer buckets do seem to lift up sometimes when I am removing the inner...

Thanks for clarifying. I guess I would have to experience them for myself in order to appreciate the differences. How does the netpot make the root growth better? Seems to me, they would still mat up around the edges, but now all those roots would be between the outer bucket and the net pot...

I just watched the Titan setup video and I don't see a difference between that system and the Ebb & Gro. Obviously the buckets are different, but this system appears to be the same design as the C.A.P. system. What makes these buckets easier to pull out?
