What are those green caps in each of your cups? I've never seen those before...
Blumats....you connect them to a reservoir and they water your plant as the soil dries out.


Do you think their will be enough room in the cups with your blumats in them too? Been thinking of this idea too but not totall 100% on it might just rig up a simple drip system from a water pump in a 5 gallon bucket and lines going to the cups and the water pump is on a timer.
Should be alright..this is about the smallest you can go. Far from optimal..lol. I don't want to babysit them though so it is what it is.

Very high-tech, Poz. You seem to be the wizard with all the cool gadgets here on RIU.

I have a little reservoir, using gravity to feed water through rubber lines and onto tops of soils through plastic nozzles. It works great for when I'm on vacation or away from the plants. It has a battery-powered timer/dispenser on it that can be adjusted for a number of plants.

It sounds like your Blumats go a little further and add an extra level of sophistication for more manipulation of the controlled growing environment.

Yeah I was thinking it should be ok with them in there I might try them on two of mine than have my others on a timer drip!

@frozen, my main light is dead. Are you ok with me RELOCATING side lighting to an over head position? And since it was random cheap ass ebay LED Am I allowed to replace it with similar fixture ( just thinking minor differences would be much like changing a bulb brand in HPS or MH when replacing dead bulb ) Being an LED panel just puts it in a kind of grey area for me. Wanted to ask before I Ordered new fixture, or moved side lighting.

Last question about you Blumats, in your res do you have a airstone going in it or just water?

No airstone, just a dead res with tap water. r//o with cal mag probably worked better but was a bit more work

Edit...oops... Normally water, veg n bloom no air stone for the comp

Oh shit is this happening i got my qrazy train germinated in three cups. I hope my new seeds get here quick enough though. I got a strain that I think will grow a little better in a party cup. If they don't i got the qrazy train to fall back on. So im not gonna officially register my plants till i get some things sorted out...this is gonna be fun

A panel replacement is alright by me... Can you prove the "old" one is dead? burnt out diodes with fans still moving.... killa watt plugged in with dead panel still drawing power.... Prove it "died"
