Mr I Can Do That For Half
jerkin yeah I use these through flower. I grow only from clone though as seed takes to long and you cant get the control. In these units I get my clones ready and rooted then pop them in and then just veg maybe 10 days max nice small plants and then I found you have to lollipop the plants and even super cropping the tops or fiem tech work great.You want to have finished plants around a foot or so.By lollipopping you get nice fat colas and little branching. I was hitting anywhere from 1/2 to 2 oz per plant so in a 6 site setup from 3-12 dry oz was the norm depending on the strain and my nute setup with co2.

sounds good man. im hopefully going too try to flower with this system. im glancing at eagleclaw's journal and i think im going to go half nutes until i start to flower. i decided to put some air rocks and pump air into my res to hopefully avoid the root rot and make my system into a aero/dwc hopefully to improve efficiency.
im planing to use:
GH BASE NUTES
Liquid Karma
floralicous
superthrive
H2O2

I am actually cloning in three of the netpots with a glass over the clone and growing in three of the others from seed so far very successfull. It seems the the three inch hole saw is just a touch to big and it makes it hard not to knock the net pot into the tub.(did that once already) I am looking for a way to move water in and out of this unit easily because of the tight space I have now.

I had to rebuild my water sending unit because it was really soaking a couple of the plants, drowning is probably a better word for it. Once I did this they bounced back overnight and I saw some really rapid growth almost overnight. I am working on a way to monitor water level externally using a piece of clear hose with set marks indicating volume. I should also be able to test PH this way without having to open the container up. I will upload some pics once I get this done.

Just to add my two cents:
I found the same problem so I reworked everything and tried to make sure the jets didn't point directly at the plants. Also I got a timer and set it to turn off for 15 minutes at a time every four hours. We'll see how that works tonight!! I already started adding nutes to mine and they are only about two inches tall but I did wait until they had three nodes. They seem to like it and I cut the does to about 1/10th of the amount recommended, I will slowly raise it until I see any problems.

OK quick update the plants are looking great and they seemed to be growing by the minute I don't see any difference with the pump shutting down for fifteen minutes every four hours but I have nothing to compare it to. Here are some picts of the grow so far, the plants under glass are clones not sure if they will work or not we will see.

Just in case I misunderstood I uploaded my photos to my profile and then picked the URL and go to advanced picked my picture URL and placed it in the line. That gives you the full size pic.
By the way did you build a different top for your unit? I am actually working on a wooden top for mine right now.
