Alternatives:

Clearex - a flushing solution, the idea is to clean your tank and remove salts.
does distilled vinegar work on this one?

silica blast - is a silica solution that aids plants in many ways. Alot of companies make this. I use DYNA GROW PROTEKT

Great white - pondzyme' from pool places?
 
SS for the the support rail system for the posts ( flowering system) are you using 3/4 PVC or 1" PVC?

Also in the 2 Inch drain pipe, How did you cut rectangles in the pipe and made sure they fit well??
 
vinegar, not sure. but flushing is important to prevent lockout and keep plants happy, esp if using high nutes levels(1000+ppm).
silica is an important additive. it makes the plant much stronger.
i am using pondzyme now instead of greatwhite, price difference is huge.

Click to expand...
i add the powder to the res and use a cordless drill with a 5gal paint mixing attachment to mix the res. 10sec and done. not a big fan of teas. opens a lot of bad doors if not done right and for the work there is not enough benefit.
 
man, my 4yo probably knows lowes better than most of their employees. we just walk the aisles, he asks a thousand questions and i get a thousand ideas. then we get icecream.lol.
 
its a framed room using 5/8" osb as interior walls,2x4 studs, foam sheet then r13 fiberglass insulation. exterior is drywall. i seal inside of room, it doesnt make it to the drywall. anywhere wood meets wood it got caulked, then 5 coats of rubber paint. and double seals on the doors.

    SS, are these about right...measurements

    1. what dremel head do you use to cut the 2 inch pvc? just got one. first time using it so be easy on me..
    2. I am using pipes and not post, so I have to mark around the edge of the pipe, bottom part and cut the shape( kinda like a semi oval). can this be done with the dremel?...

    3. You 2 inch T drain seem to be sitting around the 2 inch cutout...? so the tee actuall does NOT go in the rez hole. am I right??​
