It would be pretty sweet to use hydroton. Link all your tubs. Run the bottom row into a reservoir that has a pump feeding back i to the top row of tubs and just use a waterfall in current nftI will post some pics behind the canopy for you when lights go on tomorow king,One thing id like to dial in is medium in the 18 gal tubs. The promix i used was not even 50% filled with roots and i never got runoff once:/ I am interested in coco but seems like it would need a shit ton of water to feed. I have been thinking of how to do drip with a rack system like this: maybe have a empty rack with one res on each shelf?
Turned on dehu and it's 80 for night cycle ,is that dangerous?
Ive been on a quest to get plants like I had in hydroton! This last year i spent with promix and havent come close ...I once did a constant drip with hydroton and had the healthiest plant ive ever had,the thing had bark
.Is your idea a constant drip or timed drip? I like it tell me more!
However The bottom rack would be hard to fit anything under in this setup.
I have been playing with the hempy cup idea for all my veg needs this month and am quite impressed so far.This made me wonder if it would be possible in the rack reality..I have a drain hole in each tub so unless i could do it through that fitting i would need new tubs....Not sure if drip or hempy would require more water,but I do have a 70,and 2x100 gal res i could use...My ro is just very slow lol
This room could be bannanas in hydroton!!
*There are 2 wall fans and 3 floor fans and 2 x 8"in/out
I run about 800ppm on average, but some strains like more.i may be able to reach that temp by turning off 3 lights and only running 3,do you think that would that work?
You talking about the HD white fence post? How far would net pot be from bottom of post where water runs? Would i need to rootprune to maintain flow? Do you know if the posts are 6ft? I might be willing to try it on a rack or 2 if i can put it together cheaply,ive never done nft ,you could even veg the posts in a table in another room for a week then just move em to the ziggyrackythingy every week,baddass but how would you feed if rows are different ages ? 1000ppm or?
Even though lights are moving on a lightrail ? The bulb doesn't spend much time in front of the plants ...
Hmm so I will try 14" my light rail moves 5+ ft are you sure they will get enough light?
