I hope you get better dude! May you grow the strongest Sativa's on earth to give you the energy you need in the day, and Grow the Strongest Indica's on earth to put you to sleep. And eat what ever your heart desires! The happier the soul, the longer you live! <<<<<<My theory !
Keep on growin my man!
Thanks for the kind wishes, I have had second opinions and all that is left is to enjoy life.
how much upkeep is it to run aeroponic system? what does it cost to maintain ur system?
Upkeep is not too bad, I prune dead leaves when possible, monitor pH and PPM, and lets see... oh yeah change the reservoirs. The small reservoirs are changed once a week, the clone/veg reservoir is changed every two weeks, and the flowering system is changed every three.
Cost is low now that it is up and running. It is just the cost of the water and the nutrients really, the electricity is maybe $35 more per month now with everything.
Timers reduce energy waste too.
I am not very mobile lately so I will not be able to go to the systems to maintain them.
Thanks for stopping in, stay tuned for more pictures.
The CFLs will last for a year and be changed, the HPS lamp will be changed every 3 months. The carbon scrubber needs to be emptied and refilled with activated carbon every 3 months also. I'm sure the RO filters will also fall under the 3 month schedule too.
