Hey ss, I was taking a closer look at your recipe's on page 7, and noticed for flower you have 3 different formulas, weeks 1 and 2, 3-5, and 5-8 or til finished. After week 2, do you do week 3 and 4 the same and change it at 5, or is it weeks 3, 4, and 5 the same, and change at week 6? ;-)

i do a total of three res fills per flower cycle of 8-9 weeks. first res lasts 2 weeks, next 2 fills last 3 weeks each. the difference in the formula is to allow for what the plants want more of at different stages.

always have and never a problem. the last res will ususally be there close to 4 weeks, i do add water to it to lower ppm as they get closer.

Hey hey.

Hope all is well SS and co.


So I hooked up the minigen...


When I turned it on I got this weird smell coming from it. Like hot burning plastic. I check for gas leaks.. Everything looked good...
The smell went down. But it's still gives an oder. Is that normal...?


Question 2:


I got the cap Ppm 3 controller...
I set the relay at 1500.. Do I need to change the set and end point...


And where do you put the timers for the generator?

Why can't I just run it all the time... Won't harm the girls will they?

smell is usually normal when dealing with fire and a painted/coated product.
i have my co2 come on at 1250 and off at 1325. the residual will get the room to about 1400 then start dropping.
plants do not use co2 during dark so no keed to run it. i have mine plugged into lighting control and it comes on with lights.
i adjust when it is out of my desired range which changes with stages and is listed in my recipe.

Yo Super.... what type of paint do you use on your lids? Somewhere at some point i must have switched kinds. Because now my lids are always chipping.

THX buddy!

so how to do you do that on the cap 3 controller..

i just set the relay at 1500.

start point is at zero and endo point is 5000

should i adjust start point to 1250 and relay to 1325?

And is 1500ppm too much?. is there anything such as "too much" co2?

yes, adjust the set points.
1500 is extreme top. i played with 1000-1500 and i like 13-1400. yes, there can be too much and can be detrimental.
