7" was the smallest distance between sprayers. there is a 10" version and a 16" version. u can make ur own putting the sprayers 3" from the net pot.

how big are the fence posts that u used??
that is seriously hard for me to understand how any plants will not totally burn down to nothing with using 1500 parts, straight out of the cloner, my water starts out at 165 and if i add more than 100 parts of advanced nutrients micro and grow together they can get toasted

That's with Botanicare nutes. I run my synthetic based nutrients around 850-1200PPM.

They are 100" fence posts cut in half, so 50".

The plant will fall through the hole. You could do it in the cloner but it's kind of a pain in the ass because there is nothing keeping the collar from falling through.
I like to cut the bottom out of my net pots and just leave the rim to hold the collar.

3 question regarding setup:
1. When you put the cuttlings in the cloner, do you use normal water? Do you have to PH it or anything?
2. When you transfer to vegging. Whats a good PPM to start with? 2000 ppm right away? If you work your way up to 2000, what ppm do you start at?(YES using botanicare nutes)
3. Since PPM is strain dependant, for Big Bud from sensi seends, what PPM do they need?
Thanks

1) If your water is over 200PPM then you should use a RO machine to purify it first. PH 5.8 is best. Otherwise good old tap water is fine.
2) Start young veg at 500ppm and slowly work up to 1500PPM. If you start seeing tip burn then bring your PPM down 100-200PPM.
3) I've never grown Big Bud but you can try starting around 1500 and see how the plants look. If they look good then stay there. If they look light green, then up the PPM. If they start showing tip burn, then lower the PPM.

Lets talk lighting?
1. So eventually you will have 2000w on three systems, seems a bit low on the wattage, no?
Lets talk nutes?
1. How often do you top the res off to reach desired ppm, weekly I am assuming?
2. I can just mix in that ratios as stated and let the unused nutes sit( maybe the fridge) and not use them?
3. Is the Bonaticare sweet necessary in flowering, can it be excluded without effecting outcome?

I just read through all 13 pages or whatever. That was really funny. I think it was a cop fishing for a dumbass to try and bust. Theres NO WAY that couldve been for real unless it was a 12 year old boy just talking shit. TOO FREAKIN FUNNY. + Rep for the great morning laugh.

I seen this read in HighTimes magazine awhile back. Did you get this idea from that article or did they do this article on you. LOL
I usually have to wait 2 1/2 months between harvest and it sucks. Ive always wanted to do this after reading that article in HT but my apt looses power alot where I live. So its FFOF soil for now. My need for weed brought me to the place where Im just now starting to flower out 10 big plants after 2 1/2 months veg. then, after 5 weeks of flowering, I put in the 10 small ones so I can have a harvest every 5 weeks (+1/-1 week) instead of every 10 weeks. Check out my diary if you want.

Just got a copy of Stinkbud's new book. The hybrid dwc/aero unit looks pretty epic. And I'm stoked about trying the new nutes. Stinkbuddies forums are down and I have a few questions so I'll see if Stinkbud himself or any of the veterans here can help.
1. I've got a 2x4 space for the flowering unit. Height reaches 7ft. I'll be using a digital 1000w hps setup. I'm thinking 6 plants in the space. What would you recommend - the hybrid unit or the classic SB Jr? I like the hybrid but I'm concerned about water temps in the space I'll be using.
2. If I go aero/nft I'm considering using 5in or 6 in fenceposts in order to maximize root growth space. Any pros or cons to larger fenceposts?
Thanks for the great book SB! I highly recommend it to anyone who is in the hobby.

Poind3xter, I like his SB Jr to be honest, especialyl for just 6 plants. I ran SB's system for a while, and went back to Flood & drain as I felt I had more control and was 100% less messy. Good luck
For some funny reason stinkbud took down his forums saying he wants to update some things, but then states it might be a while. I think Stinkbud has great information but feel he is using it as a sales pitch to sell his book instead of promoting his book and keeping the forums up. He has had the Forums down for several days with no update.
Sadly its time to move on,

Are you serious?
Stink had helped anyone who needed it. If he wanted to make money of this. He would have sold his systems pre made and never wrote a detailed thread about it with designs and schedule.
All the info you need in on this thread and online to successfully run this system.
Stinkbud has helped alot of people from all around the world. Even if he wanted to make money from it, he has every right to. If you don't like it go get an AeroFLO 60 for 800 bucks.

Ocean Green.. are YOU serious? did you really read my post? You have responded to 10% of the entire post, and left out the rest. So saying youa re BIASED for a reason is obviously a given to anyone who reads your post.
SB promoted systems do work and work well, no doubt about it.
Aero cloner is the only way to clone in my opinion, a clone rate of 99.999% is unbeatable and so easy!

For the six site system do you think putting a 8 bulb quantum badboy with aquarium bulbs over each flowering unit would be enough? i live in a small apartment and dont want to have to worrry about cooling lights and the room so i save on electricity
