yea! im really happy with her.. gonna take really good care of her. thanks!
oh ok then, solubles are different than nutes. i thought they were the same.
yeah im veggin her right now, im planning on veggin her to 1.2ft or so.. then gonna flower her.
for my next grow, i was actually thinking of getting 3 clones and instantly flower them.. do you think that would be a good idea? because if i was to instantly flower, they would be smaller and i would THINK that the space wouldnt be much of an issue if they are smaller. what im going for is maximum yield. so if this 1 plant produces a good amount, i might just keep 1 big plant.. not too sure.
im planning on getting all 6 of the nutes too. i got a grow big and i think tiger bloom right now. gonna get the other 4 soon enough.
yeah i actually got a 5.2L bucket today, perfect size really.. like 1.4 gallons or so. didnt get that circular airstone or cheaper ph meter, too expensive for now. i also got some chains to hang the ag hood with too. but yeah go ahead and send me a link to that.. always interested in learning more about this stuff.
lets see if this works here is a link to my areo grow tub i put the instructions in the description

and this one for the aero head

sounds like you are planning a bubble ponics vs a hydro system? i like keeping my res separate because its so much easier doing a res change, you dont ever have to mess with roots unless you have to clean or replace sprayers.
Nope did not work
so here is the stuff
Aero grow aero head design
materials
2- pcv pipe 24"" 1/2 diam
2- T fittings
1- T fitting threaded in one hole
1- 1/2" treaded to 1/2 " hose fitting
4- 1/2" 90 deg angle fittings
4- end caps
cut pvc in the following sections
1st 2' section
4 -5" pieces
2- 2" pieces
2nd 2' section
4- 6" sections for a 14 gal tub
4- 3" sections for a 10 gal tug
smaller if for a smaller tub etc.
glue and primer
lay out pieces
drill holes for sprayers 11/32 is all most too big but thats what i had a little glue if they strip doing it now save from drilling after glueing and you turn the pieces when gluing to get right angle.

prime and glue all together. if you are feeding from the bottom ( pump in grow chamber )
point threaded t fitting down, if using separate res turn to 90 deg angle for hose fitting.
Glue on 90 deg angle fittings legs and end caps ( make sure you measure tub first it needs to be low enough clear baskets or plugs in lid
Finished aero head is done.
very inexpensive less than 15.00
Aero tub design
materials
2- tubs i used 14 gal but only keep 5 gal water at one time so 10 gal is fine for lower
4- 1/2" male to male fittings
4- 1/2" rubber gromets
2- 90 deg 1/2" male to male fittings
1- 6' section of hose 1/2" dia. you might mess up and extra dont hurt and you dont want kinks so use what it takes to not kink.
1- pump i bought the 12.00 pump at my local hydro shop
4- 6" aero pots, plugs, plastic cups what ever to hold medium for cloner i use both 6" pots and the large black neopreme plugs.
Layout is a matter of choice and space i like to keep all hoses pointed in one direction but opposite ends makes more since in and out flow
dill 2 3/4" holes in each tub, one will need to align with aero head the straiter the better so if legs are 6" tall hole will be 6 1/4 aprox from bottom of grow chamber etc. eye balling works good too.
second hole in aero tub is a drain so if you want a flow through in res drill on oposite end of grow chamber.
holes in res are whatever fits nicely 3/4 " hole for gromet and hole for input from grow chamber. input needs to same side drain from grow chamber etc. pretty simple.
drill one more hole same end as the out hole but as low as you can go and still fit gromet in. insert gromet and put a 90 deg hose fitting in gromet 90 pointing up on outside of res. this is your water level indicator
Drill one more hole for cord if you are stacking them drill high and on the side it will take a big hole for plug to go in keep water level in mind, once cord is through the hole you can tape it or buy a plug from hydro shop i use black duck tape worked fine. just needs to keep light out.
assembling the pump in res run a length of hose from fitting in out hole to pump i suggest a 90 deg fitting and two pieces of hose up from the pump over to the out hole.
assemble all the stuff
Drill Holes in lid you can do whatever you want with the layout I offset them from the sprayer heads so the roots dont come directly down over the heads so they dont get root plugged and can be removed and replaced or cleaned when clogged with roots
..determanition is a wonderful thing ha ha
