Got my hydrogen pro hooked up with drain to waste. Idk why people hate on it. It works just like i used to. It was lighting and going out shortly after. Reason was the water flow. Troubleshooting led me to having co2 output all the way down and the water cooling all the way up. That let me know the cheap garden hose was the problem. I ran 3/4" pvc on the water into a sprinkler ball valve. They discontinued the hydrogen water flow valve. This one was only 15 bucks at home depot. Works pretty good once i put a better hose on it. Couple pix from today.

Looks great. The UC is an indy car.
I built a 60 system facility a few years back. Lots of fun.
Pic is crappy but I pulled one of the rooms off CC's Facebook site.
We were 270 in veg and 450 to 660 in flower.12615292_958149264266509_7774393378123721169_o.jpg

Hope you guys arent getting bored with my daily updates. I cant help it. Pretty exciting everyday for me. I have heard word of people getting root rot midway thru flower. Im assuming they didnt have a chiller
Question:
Can u still get root rot with 65-68 water temps with a sterile rez and light nutrient feeding?

Yes because oxygenation and circulation are the keys. That's why I ran waterfalls and I never had root rot problems even when temps went up to the mid 70s F.

I would like to see an actual study done on what creates more DO. Waterfall or airstones.

Took longer than i wanted and planned but it finally came together. The bad thing is my father in law was a bit nervous but he believed enough in me to invest serious money. Kills me he passed away a month ago. Right before i filled the system. Never even saw it set up. RIP MARK ANSCHUTZ... AND THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING..

Had a flood. Main reason i dont like anyone helping me. Let hose fall out of ro storage and lost 200 gal on the floor. Soaked carpet my neighbors complained about water. Which its same neighbor that is complaining about smell. I thought they were bullshitting about smell and when my wife went over she confirmed there is no smell over there at all. The lady asked if the smell would hurt the baby. Lol. Cracked me up. Going to suck tomorrow but probably going to remove the carpet out of the first couple offices. Anyway here is couple pix

Another question. Plant health is overall great imo. But what is the cause of long stems on some leaves. Seems like i read somewhere its to low nutrient strength? Anyone have any ideas?

Here is couple more pix. Everything going ok. Had the ph start dropping so i ddid a 3/4 change out. Which i been wanting to get the ppm up. Im a bit nervous so i left them at 420 mid week 3. And filled 50 gal top off with stronger. The ppm os still slowly dropping. Anything i do and the ppm continues to drop.
