    Dropa Dope My First Grow Journal 400 Watt RDWC 02/17/2010

    Best thing to do is test it out when you get it, the pump just needs to be able to pump from lowest point to highest point in loop. If it dont work, then go buy a bigger one. Okay, Now everyone light up on 3....2....1....

    No, you need twice the size in as being pulled out when passive. Thats why I recommended taking off the weather stripping on the bottom of the door. Once you raise the shelf, it will be a non-factor as far as light. :hump:

    With 8' height to play with, you could easily raise the shelf by nailing 2 side boards, then your intakes would be under the shelf, covering them with some dark screen should be fine, and it will act as a filter as well. Your set-up is so clean, it looks Pro! :weed: Good Luck!

    Dropastone - Damn, sorry you had to break it down! But since it is, this would be a great time to make a few modifications. First, $185 for the chiller is AWESOME! It will be a great benefit. A few things to bring the room temp, and res temp down............. I would either paint the lids...

    Middle of leaf green, edges yellow.

    You stated you alternate water/feed every 5-7 days, and every feeding is at 50% strength. Without pictures of the plants and more information, it will be difficult to diagnose your plants. But let me throw something out there for you to consider. If you are using tap water, it is probably...

    Tom's 400 watt Growing Odyssey

    I recently mod'ed my DIY 5 gal Bucket Aero Cloner and decreased the pump size and number of sprayers. I went down to a 190 gph pump (Harbor Freight) and only 2 - 360 deg sprayers. Immediately after doing this, the roots developed total fish bone roots which I believe is better for absorbtion. I...

    :weed: bongsmilie :weed: The 12/12 Girls look Fantastic! The clones were looking great 2, but they look Overwatered now. They are pretty small in relation to everything else, and dont need to be fed everytime you feed the Big Girls. Let the cups get light / dry out before you feed them again...

    What he said ^^^^^^^ But I wanted to point out the the Lucas Formula is only for 12/12. There are a ton on threads on here saying that 0-5-10 is for veg, and I couldnt understand why I was getting all kinds of deficiencies! Then I found a few Posts from Lucas himself, and he stated that 0-5-10...

    Suggestions for making neoprene style inserts

    I buy the Pool Noodles at the Dollar stores for $1 each. They usually have them all year long. Cut them to length with a Radial arm saw for speed. They are aprox 4 ft long, and you can make about 50 pucks each. I buy the solid ones (some have a small hole in center), and cut the same "t" shape...

    bubblecloner or areoloner? who has used both and whats ur preference?

    I have made both, and I prefer the AeroCloner. I dont get quite 100% with the Bubble cloner made from a plastic shoebox. Mine may not really be too Aero since I made it with 1 lawn type pop-up sprayer, and a 160 GPH pump. The roots get sprayed 1 minute on, then 5 minutes off. I purposely mounted...

    Yes, that would work great. You can use just about any plastic container. If you do a search on the forums for DWC, you can find alot of different DIY set-ups. I have also built several systems from the information here on RollItUp.org. One thing you might consider is to start them in the...

    You are doing fantastic! Your plants look great! Subscribed +rep! I have cloned with and without Cloning Gel, and it works either way. I have noticed that they root faster if you keep the Rapid Rooters moist and not overly wet. Keep the lid on with only a small crack for air exchange, it keeps...

    Bubblebonics w/ Drip

    :leaf:It is my understanding that the Trichromes are most potent from cloudy through amber, after amber they turn brown, this is where potency is lost/degraded. As far as how long it takes to go from clear to cloudy to amber to brown can really vary with environmental conditions in your grow...
