Hey stink, I just read you don't use a cycle timer anymore for the cloner, Do you find the results to be better or just the same? My buddy has one of those DWC cloners and its reservoir is super tiny but the pump stays on all day and it works like a charm, so basically the same thing but aeroponics with water temp not being an issue?

24/7 works great for the cloner as the warmer water actually helps with the rooting. You still have to watch for the funk though. I just found some slimy clones in my cloner. Hopefully I got rid of them before it spreads.

you think the tahoe clone (the one that didnt root, im pretty sure it was the tahoe) would have survived if ya kept the cloner on the cycle timer? I'm going to stick with your tried and true 100% success rate with the timer instead of 99.9% 24/7 with a lil slime...call me spoiled and stuck up, but its your fault my expectations for this beautiful hobby is set so high haha. thanks for being the man, Stink Sensei:bigjoint:

After seeing a gallon of Sweet in a local grow store with a $64 price tag I decided to see if it would be possible to brew some up at home. I think I got it figured out. Funny how the answer seems so apparent after finding it. I will test this to be sure it works, but this looks like an easy way to make Sweet for less than a dollar a gallon. The ingredients are Cane Sugar (plain old sugar) and Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt).

I'm about to flower for the first time using the stinkbud 200, but some of my vegging clones are much taller than the other- ones currently at 11" and others and 10", but some are 7". I know I want an average of 12'' but obviously others will be much taller come finish time. Should I just put them all in at the same time anyway, and not worry about the height of the 3 or 4 best? I've got plenty of room to flower in. What does everyone recommend? I hope I'm not over thinking this.

You'll be fine bro! In fact the smaller plants may outstretch the larger ones in the end. If some of the plants are a lot bigger just bend the branches down and tie them.

Be careful adding sugar to your mix. It may end up feeding the funk! Let us know if it works or not and good luck bro!

Hey everyone I just wanted to share my grow. I was starting to get back into it when I stumbled upon this thread. I didnt copy everything as exact as I should have (mainly my work isnt as clean as Stinkbuds) but its a great start back into the hydro/aero world.
Thanks to Stinkbud for everything you do. I just missed you at hempfest because I got called into work.

Here is my start. As soon as I finish off my last soil I will be putting 2 more of the units in.

You can get it on amazon for 45$ shipped (grape) or 52$ (raw)

Ive heard that making your own is the way to go though. I saw that you made yours and I look forward to seeing the results!

Cant beat the homemade price tag and the the feeling of knowing what your feeding your plant.

Hey stink bud, since it appears your doing follow ups, I wanted to ask you a question, If i want to try aeroponics but i don't want to build the fence post set up, can I build a setup similar to your cloner setup, but with fewer plant spots than your cloner, to grow my plants till harvest?

Thanks in advance and thanks for all the info your sharing.

You can do two plants in the veg set up style, the cloner style will have the roots dangling in the water. You can change the design of this system very easily, Stnkbud just showed us one way to make an easy DIY aero/nft system, you can customize this to however you need it.
