    Aero root problems and maybe nute burn can't tell???

    What's the placement on your nozzles? What are your mist times? I'm also concerned about the placement of my nozzles & whether or not the coverage is going to be sufficient in the later stages of growth. I'd have to say, increase your on time, ot shorten your off time if roots are drying out...

    r0m30’s first grow, HP Aero cabinet

    the widow has been on 12/12 for about a month now, and is doing ok. Those two cuttings i have now were actually the tops of the big bud. That plant was a headache from the start, so i shit canned it. 250 huh? That's actually better for me. I have a batch mixed at about 167 now, so I'll just go...

    Hey r0m, what ppm did you start at? I was thinking about starting around 200 or so.

    So, the combination of higher temps & alot less light has got me to the point where I think I can throw these bitches in my rig, & give it a go. I had to modify my lids a little, as I will be just droppin these cups in, and not using my 4" custom pucks. Oh well. I figure I gotta do some family...

    Naw, that cheese was all me, lol. They copied it right from youtube description. I was a little excited, and being my second system, it sounded clever at the time. Mind you, when I started to get interested in all this, a year or so ago, there were like 4 dudes to talk to about it. Edit: 3 dudes...

    True HP Aero For 2011

    I was chatting with someone on this site some months ago, when they informed me that my original project vid was posted on this site. I was actually pretty stoked, because I was pretty new to the scene. I guess they've been following my stuff. From what I can tell, they exclusively use other...

    Sorry trichy. Perhaps I should start my own thread, if for the only reason to avoid these involuntary thread jacks.

    The 422 doesn't have a dual setting. One method discussed is plugging the 422 into a basic pin timer to create off times during the night. As far as solenoids are concerned... I forget what the max amps of the timer is, but I think it's quite a bit. It will accept just about any amount of power...

    I've been struggling with getting clones healthy, but should have better luck now that I'm done trying for a mediumless scenario. I have every intention on getting this thing going. Alot of variables, to say the least.

    Question about RO storage tank

    You can use as big a tank as you want. I don't use em for RO, but as pressure tanks for mist delivery. I use a 19 gallon, and its awesome. Your pump will thank you.

    Well, I hope it to be pretty soon. I've finally given up on mediumless. Gonna go ahead with rapid rooter/hydroton in a net cup. And I think my light was too intense for cuttings. Got 2 freshies under a couple cfl's now. Gonna try & get em in there regardless. Winter setting in around here means...

    I happen to think its a pretty badass setup. My opinion may be a little bias though. :-D

    If you skip to about the 2 min mark in the vid, this geezer made a pretty sweet analog mist switch. This really got my mind going. This type of switch is reactive to it's enviroment. If your chamber is empty, or close to, the switch triggers quickly. If a mass of roots is catching the mist...

    r0m30’s first grow, HP Aero cabinet

    well, I've bumped up my temps to 80, and the clones already seem to like it better. As for my moms, I've upped my ph, and should be able to see some progress in the coming week or so. Can't believe I over looked that. It was information I knew, but I guess got jumbled in with all the other shit...

    Reflectix outside would do you well. I can't see it having any effect on the inside. If the shiny factor is too much, maybe start by painting the lid white. Probably get ya a couple of degrees. I think atomizers chiller using mains & a solenoid sounds pretty cost effective. I really don't think...

    r0m30’s first grow, HP Aero cabinet

    Yeah, I pretty much abandoned my thread, as I've been following trichy's thread pretty religiously, and didn't see any reason to keep at mine. I've tried cloning several different ways now, and currently using rapid rooters, in hydroton, in a humidome. I don't really like to ask for help, but I...

    Damn, I feel like I'm in the same boat. I got two mothers not doin too well, and on my 3rd or 4th run at clones, with not great success. I'm thinking that I need to try feeding my clones some nutes, as they start yellowing by the time roots begin to show. My frustration has lead to neglect...
