    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    make sure you get the info from the manufactures website or live person from the manufactures not a retail salesperson. theyll tell you what you want to here. look for the operating pressure like he said not the max pressure. they can blow up. i read a story recently about a plumber who got...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    those are some tough questions to answer as a person would have to run a side by side or at least have done the same strain in both systems to really give an exact answer. i only have 4 girls never ran them in LP. i dont think the numbers are relevent as the system can function with the right...

    look thru these sites. im not saying these pumps but the sites have all kinds of pumps look for one that has the pressure you want. http://www.pumpagents.com/ShurfloPumps/8000-812-639.html http://www.systemacc.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/21_302/products_id/1559...

    remember i have 2 pressure switches. the one that does it is after the accumulator tank. the one that comes right after the pump and before the accumulator tank doesnt do it now but it did in the past. it seems if i go out of the current range much 80-97 it will start to do it to. when i...

    interesting tip. ill have to try it. i was actually going to increase the line going to the pressure switch to 1/2 instead of the 1/4 inch line that now feeds it to remedy the problem or was going to buy an electronic pressure switch that can be programmed to ignore a certain drop momentarily...

    i already have a drainline to bypass the selonoid installed so when switching to the ro res i could simply drain whatever is in the accumulater-line and then switch the tank and turn the pump back on (i have an on-off switch wired in to the pump already) thus filling the system with ro water...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    you know i was thinking on the same lines but it would be much easier for me to just have a seperate res to feed the system with and then alls it would take is to have a valve switch res tanks at what ever times one chose. it all goes to the dtw anyway. Of coarse what fatman says is probably...

    well as i was going into the 7 week i noticed the girls just stopped pretty much feeding. i saw the runoff ppm drastically stop. i thought this was probably normal since they were suppose to finish in 8 weeks. I just left it go for a few days but was somewhat puzzeled. After a few days i thought...

    The new pump...

    well i was surprised to see your thread pop back up. you really take holidays. well check out my thread alot has gone on since youve been gone. switched to DTW. man its soo much nicer and so much easier to figure out whats up since you can monitor the runoff and then adjust the input res...

    i wish i would have ran DTW right from the start. its so much easier and with the low volume of water and nutes used its cost effective also. i only throw away 2 gallons or so a day. not much waste. with 7 gallon drawdown on your tank you shouldnt need more than 20 gallon res. if you get...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    i always thought about doing something similar as to what you are describing. sprayers on top and fast recirculating DWC on the bottom. i thought this would be an alternative to lifting the roots off the floor with silk screen to keep them out of the runoff. i never did try it though but dont...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    ive been tempted at times to up the nute temp but didnt want to take the chance of any root problems as im still trying to figure everything else out. i would love to max out the other parameters and then up the solution temp to see what difference it would make. i have also read that true aero...

    dont give up on the stealth. rooms can be made very stealthy. just be creative with something to go across the door. its always good to have stealth that will pass a walk thru. you never know about exigent circumstances. will never save you from a serious examination from the man (cause of thier...

    who doesnt like pictures of big trees. right now im only dealing with shrubs. when i get things figured out and do get some trees i hope to give a look but right now this thread is more geared toward the design aspect of the system. i hope just the info can help those who are interested in...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    well i tryed another nozzel on a different pod and guess what it was almost exactly the same 8.7ml. now i pulled the cup away as soon as i heard the selonoid close but the run on probably still goes into the cup . at least some of it if its only 1-2 sec as its pretty hard to just yank the cup...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    well i put a cup under the nozzel and waited for the mist. it was at 80psi on the gauge which is right before the pump kicks on. you did the math atomizer and the number should be 4.73 ml(i didnt do the math going by your figures) but it came out to 8.6 ml. dont ask me how this is but i measured...

    MY True HP Aero Plug&Play Pods

    ill tell you one thing im going to add to the system is a little remote controll to fire the selonoid while im over by the pods. its impossible for me to fire the selonoid and have the latch cover open and be by the pod at the same time. i realized this flaw awhile back when wanting to check for...

    fatman do you think any of these nutes designed for aero approximate the right ratio for the ladies. http://www.biocontrols.com/secure/shop/category.asp?catid=19

    i think your right on that one. i can see a tree easily filling a 4x4 by 14"-18"hieght. it was a blessing in disguiese that i didnt have the misting cycle right from the start cause if i would have im sure there would not be enough room in the chamber to finish them. as it is i am still...

    fatman do you think if i used one part bloom and half part micro and then supplemented with calmag i could get close to something to finish this run out with. Any idea how many ppm to use in R/O water of calmag. my calmag has some nitrogen in it.i know they recommend 3-5ml per gallon but if i...
