Wait!.... when did jin make hash?
Thx don.





I'm not having problems with my inline filter!
Cleaning it once every two weeks is not a problem for me.

Trust me on this. Right now it's every two weeks and soon you'll come in and have no water being pumped to the buckets from the reservoir. The filter serves no purpose in a DWC setup, so why not remove it to ENSURE you dont have any problems in the future?

Isnt the filter removing sediment or particles that could otherwise get stuck in the pump? a filter is a lot cheaper than a nice pump...

I'm glad you've found what works for you.
Please respect the fact that this works for me.

I personally enjoy the added benefit of trapping all dead recirculating roots.

I would fear a hydroton pebble or piece of a pebble falling through the netpot and getting caught in the pump... death to pump, plants... and floor! lol

12/12Took 8 cuttings today, 2 Jack Frost, 3 Sour-D Pheno #1 & 3 Sour-D Pheno #2.
Trying out the STG Tornado inserts this time around.
The totes are filled with 40+ gallons of SuperNatural Superboost @ 230ppm & 5.6Ph.
After cutting I dip in Supernatural Root burst powder, slip 4 hail cubes (with a hole poked through the middle) around the base of the cutting then dip back in the rooing powder than straight into the STG insert, I add a few cubes around to fill in voids then cut the tips off the fan leaves.

I put together a reflective backstop.
I'm using a 250w Mh @ 24/0 lighting schedule.
I'm using a GH duel diaphragm 20lpm air pump pushing an airstone in each tote.
There's also a small submersible water pump pushing water between totes.









That was 20 days ago.
Along the way I added another 20lpm air pump, pulled 3 clones from a plant that turned herm, changed the light to a T5 with Par grow bulbs.
I haven't touched the water inside the tote it has dropped from halfway up the cup to 1/5.
Tomorrow I'll change the nutes to aqua grow.

Crazy shit. And I thought I had a lot of weird gear I would have trouble explaining to guests. Lol.

edit:
Your room number 1 is starting to look like an outdoor grow. Monstrous. What was that strain again? :shock:
