Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

I think you still may not understand me. My question doesn't have anything to do with the plants! :)

I just want to know how people change their EZ clone sprayers in the NFT unit if both ends are sealed by fence post caps. And thanks for the link, I am going to ask there as well.

Good that you ask there, I actually built the standard Stinkbud system style and used it for only 1 run. Then I redesigned my system so my rails actually go into the side of my reservoir, they have no end caps on mine.

So is working at Burger King and you have to flip burgers instead of trim buds. Plus Burger King pays like 6.50/hr. Im pretty sure a pound every three weeks will make you more money than 40 hours a week at BK. And truly, its not that much work at all in comparison. An hour a day maybe and a long weekend every three weeks. If thats to much work than you need to cut back on you pot consumption, its making you a lazy stoner.

On picture (5.4), I think that adding a sprayer head to each leg, just above the leg end caps would be extra beneficial in 2 ways, 1. You would add extra bubbling in the rez. to help oxygenate the water, and 2. would allow the water to drain to Level with the container water and not be sitting in the leg area, when the pump shut off....And the water wouldn't get sterile and would be circulating through the entire PVC system...Just add 4 more sprayer heads to your materials list and drill four more holes......What do you think???

Yes, but not long enough to matter. Especially if you get the 10 RPM motor.

You might see a small gain with two light movers. I'm just not sure how you would run the light's exhaust. You would have to have separate fans and plumbing for the air.

I'm assuming your room is as small as mine...

You could easily put a bigger intake into the room i.e 8" reduce to 6" with a immediate Split to the seperate light rails. Then do the reverse on the opposite end and maybe upgrade the fan size....I really like your idea. When I build my bloom room it will be designed like yours with my intake/outake addition, with 4 x 600W lights and also incorporate some UVB reptile lights to the week 6-9 plants...
P.S. Hey SB do you live on the Southern Coast of Oregon, because your quotation "Where men are men and sheep are scared" is not virgin to my ears....also with your numbers in your flower room aren't you cutting it close to the state limit. Oregon a grower may grow for four patients total, making it 24 adults over 12" and 72 under 12"...Just curious, because I am willing to go your route but unfortunately I will be limited to 2 patients worth of medicine to grow, therefore cutting the amount in half if all calculations are within limits, and are scheduled the same as your model...Just want to be legal as a beagle...The 12" rule is B.S., we really need to get it changed to 18 plants that have not yet pre-flowered, or atleast under 24"...Most of us know that a Sativa is easily going to grow taller that 12" in a hurry and be nowhere near ready to be put to flower, it may be a good idea to although if you are limited to heights...Great Postings and System, Superior Diagrams and ATTITUDE...s.O.g. southern Oregon grower

The world needs people like you stinkbud. I thank you, its the risk takers like yourself that are the pioneers of the medicinal industry...If it wasnt for people doing what you are doing, it would have never got this far.

how many times do you have to water a day with this system? I'm trying to buy a timer, but all the timers that I have seen only allow you to program something 8 times. The one timer that I did find cost like 80 bucks though and it's 1 minute on and 4 minutes off 24/7.


If anyone can help me out that would be sweet! thanks

You need a recycle timer I encourage you to get something that will not fail. There are cheap timers you can buy and change the gears around you can find on the Stinkbuddies site. There is also a 15/15 timer you can get from Walmart I believe... Here's what is available out there basically

Recycle Timer not adjustable "Poor reputation"

Thanks for the info,

Yea I came across the first link you posted earlier today and thats what I'm going to go with most likely. Pretty shocked that a timer like that could go for that price! Anyways guess I'll have to pick one of those up and grab an inline fan and I'm ready to go!

The only thing that has changed is I'm running two veg units now to allow the plants to grow out, not up. I'll just keep topping them over and over.

One of my veg plants was getting huge. So I just chopped 6" of the top and put that in the cloner.

If you want a bigger per plant harvest all you have to do is veg longer. Of course you will need extra space in the flower system.

I wonder how big of a plant I could grow with Aeroponics? Here is what I'm thinking. Two 5gal buckets, one inside the other. Make a ring of sprayers. 1 - 4" net pot right in the middle. Plumb it all to a main res.

Veg the plant for a couple of months then stand back!

I was just wondering if you were using the stinkbud jr to flower instead of the big system since you top them a lot.

I do something similar and I believe by reading his words he is describing what I do. I have a kinda of mother plant in my vegger, she has been there oh 3 months I think. I chop her top off to maintain her height so I can grow normal sized plants for flowering, she is so healthy and lush.. I have done this a few times each time I put that one in dirt and flower her out for 2+ ounces.. Stinks has a Stinkbud Single Preview unit now which would be perfect for this, eliminate the transplant shock and would be like Oh My GAWD harvest if you LST it and keep light on it for sure. But the time I transplant my veg mothers the stem is 1+ inches thick and mature

That was my interpretation of his words, hope that helped.

Had bad luck with two different NFT-1e Cycle Timer.
The first one failed on one night, just kept spraying.
They promptly replaced it with one that fails off!

So I asked my cousen to design a PCB for me, I now build my own digital 15 amp 3 mode recycle timer 1/5, 3/5 and 1 on / 7 off... WORKS
