I’ll keep pump on and turn light off probably. Cost 88 bucks for them to just come and look at it . Won’t be around till 3-5 . Fuck me

Run a 6/2 schedule if you aren't flowering anything yet. It'll give them a break so they can transpire easier.

Not flowering. I’ll cut lights off when they show up and turn them on when they leave .

oh damn, had no idea - why is that? i picture the water with an air stone running and it's billions of bubbles... while waterfall usually has like 10 big bubbles comin up

Air stones pump oxygen into the water, but the water can only hold so much dissolved oxygen, and that decreases with higher temps. Other gases are also also dissolved into the water. The water is still stagnant.

A waterfall makes gas exhange much better, which keeps more oxygen in the water and the water stays cooler as it can reduce heat buildup from circulation. Think of it like a thermostat vs no thermostat.

Hope those sprouts make it . It’s 90 in that room . 50 rh

That's fine.

Fish tank is another good example. Most of those are just waterfall pumps and can keep quite a few fish breathing without any additional aeration.

How come no one hooks up a waterfall pump like a fish tank to a bucket ?

lol yeah good point - when i do RDWC i'll be waterfalling plus airstones in each

I started using a DWC bubbler cloner that S2C helped me build. It’s a plastic tote, pump, some airstones, and some rubber mat flooring to hold the clones up in the system.

I’ve taken like 20-30 clones haven’t had one not take root. It’s simple. And it’s a set and forget set up. Once they’re in the cloner I don’t fuck with them until they’ve rooted.

Can you please post pics of the set up

What instead having a separate bucket for nutes and all you just attach a fish tank water fall on the bucket ? So no air stones just a waterfall pump .

 

[iceman2494]

Nvm I looked it up . It be hard to get more oxygen to roots when bucket is to full of roots

I’ve never seen that per say but I’ve seen water gal RDWC builds.

I don't see why it would be hard to get oxygen to them, but you would need a pump for every bucket.

You wouldn't need a fish pump, just a circulating pump. They are much smaller.

Idk just thinking out load . The air stones do fine . I can’t even see bubbles on surface anymore . To many roots

[iceman2494]

How many air stones do you use per tote ? Do you keep stem in the water ? Do you add nutes ?

Cropped the 4 mains to open it up. Have a funny feeling this is going to be male...
