Well I lost the ability to grow a long time ago due to an ex that was watching my plants while I was away at work. The watering was automated but I needed her to keep my lights at the right height for me. We split up, she threatened to call the cops, and that was the end of it. So instead of...

Special Pleading at its finest!!

Haha you goofy bastard. #1 She's a christian. She just doesn't agree with your tactics. You push fence sitters towards the "dark side". She only knows about this site because we were having a religion conversation and I told her about this sub forum and told her to check it out last night. #2...

Again, atheists dont believe in a creator. Asking me if my creator knows what's better for me doesn't make sense. You need to learn to speak to your audience if you are actually trying to change peoples beliefs. God does make mistakes. That's why he killed almost everyone on earth to start...

Fear is a great motivator!! That's why hell was created by man to scare people into following along with Christianity. Fear of jail does keep some people from killing. The difference is it doesn't take blind faith to know that if I got caught I'd go to jail. It does take blind faith to believe...

Your question is silly GD. Knowing that your audience in this sub-forum is mostly atheists you should have asked the question, "if" you believed in my god would you live for him or yourself. Honestly that's equally as silly but I could have at least answered it. If I truly believed in your god...

Moral Minds <-- Great book with those moral questions and answers from different cultures showing there is no universal moral compass.

Unless you plan on having a huge screen 20 is too many. It can and probably has been done but if was a massive undertaking cause training 2 plants can get hectic. I couldn't imagine training 20 plants to try to get an even canopy. Personally I'd give each plant AT LEAST 1sq ft of screen.. They...

I would start from scratch and it would be a learning project. I don't think I have anything I could use right now. I love learning new shit though.. Ill have to look into the ultrasonic range finders.. Do you think its doable for a person without a lot of knowledge about circuitry to do?

Ya I understand that.. What I was asking is what would I need to do to get it to function the way I need it to? Would it be as simple as soldering some pieces together or would it be chips and shit? I don't know much about this kind of thing but I love DIY:) I know it would take some tinkering...

Here is one for you.. What would it take to hook up a few of those garage door lasers (the ones that stop the door from smashing someone) to some kind of slow moving but powerful motor? I would like to have it set up to raise the lights when the laser is broken by a leaf or a bud and stop when...

If you decide to give it a try you need to make sure your pump doesn't overrun your overflow lines. I would think short and frequent fillings like once an hour for 15 minutes would be better than once a day. The more you circulate the less PH and PPM swings you should see in your res. Not %100...

If you just want a way to keep your buckets topped off here's what I'd do. Raise your buckets(water level) higher than your res. Hook up a pump that runs to all of your buckets from your res. Use those ebb and flow fittings with the rubber seal and position them at the bottom of your buckets...

Are you looking for a cheap way to top off your buckets or a RDWC system?

Update please..
