100% agreed - you CAN'T overwater hydroton, as long as the floods are quick. I'd go to once an hour, but the plants are doing great at every other hour - and as far as flooding at night goes, not sure if it's necessary or not, but I'm now able to keep my humidity pretty much in check, so I'm...

This was posted in another thread, but thought it'd be worthwhile to put in here for anyone considering adding CO2 (as well as if anyone wants to check my math). Quote: Originally Posted by smokingrubber I thought you just refilled those? How long are the...

I refilled them the first (and only, so far) time (hold on, checking picture dates) on October 27th, but didn't start using my big tent until November 10th. So, have gone through three tanks in about 30 days, but to be fair, 24 of those days were vegging with the CO2 running 24/7, and the first...

Was thinking of changing my 12/12 schedule from 9:00pm to 9:00am back to 9:00am to 9:00pm - a large reason I've been dragging my feet on this veg tent is because I'm hesitant to go in there and turn on a bunch of lights (yes, they're in a tent, but no tent is 100% light-proof). Also, that...

No, the Sentinel doesn't control the fan speed, but yes, you can just plug in the fan and let the Sentinel control everything. Like you, my fans totally exhaust the tent air in <1 minute, so it doesn't take very long. As far as the fans in the tent, do you mean the 12" oscillating fan...

What do I win? :weed:

Anon, is the flood level reaching the 1" rockwool cubes or staying strictly in the hydroton area? I use only hydroton (root in a bubbler), and I flood for ten minutes every two hours that the light is on, and then once at "night". My light cycle is on at 9:00pm and off at 9:00am. Flood times...

Wonder, your quick turnaround time on setting up your vertical is really making me feel like the slacker I am for dragging my feet for weeks on my simple veg tent overhaul. Damn you man, damn you....................but the new setup looks awesome.

I have had to do that as well in my tent - temps in my garage are only in the 50-60 range these days, so instead of air-cooling my light and running an electric heater inside the tent, I unplugged the fan that cools my light, and just use the heat produced by my uncooled 1000W to warm the tent...

Subscribed, Mr. Zeus; we do a lot of the same things.

Lol, looks familiar............truth be told, was tightening the hose on there for a half hour with rusty pliers and getting quite frustrated before I decided to take a look at the manual where it said "re-insert bin into unit".........what an idiot I am - anyways, my setup is basically...

Looks like Ice is the pick, going to start germing some seeds either tonight or tomorrow - still need to get the veg tent setup; really, really been dragging my feet on that. Just need to build one more support and it should be all ready to rock 'n roll, we'll see. In the meantime, got the...

The stems are just above the level of the water, and the bubbling action takes care of the rest.

Yeah, I'm leaning towards Ice out of the three, but will wait for the votes to be tallied. So far, 2 for Ice, 1 for Master Kush, and 0 for AK-48.

"Germination is not a completely necissary step. But it helps." Lol............

Bumping this thread back up, I'm thinking of purchasing the same ozone generator (Cap model that covers 5500 square feet). Even though I have carbon filters on my tents, I run CO2 which means that some odor escapes because my exhaust fans are virtually never running. I grow in my garage, and...

So, going to go with all Super Skunk for my next harvest, and then will have the indica mama, Super Skunk, Bubblelicious, and NYPD mothers vegging. Looking to add new strains one at a time so I can carefully choose the best mother from each five beans, so I'd like to know what strain you boys...

Yeah, that's what I do anyways - I always top off my reservoir with pure water before adding nutes or pH'ing it. Anywho, forgot to buy two legs at Home Depot, so need to run back there tomorrow - hoping to have the tent setup by then, but in all likelihood will probably spill into early next...

Not sure what the air pump puts out, but it's rated for 20-60 gallon fish tanks (got it from Walmart). That one is about $10, but for a couple of dollars more, you can get the 100 gallon fish tank one, which would really kick some ass (I'm going to use two pumps per bucket in my new setup...

No problem my friend; if you like pics, post #47 in my journal walks you through what I did. Also, try to get a good, high-quality airstone at the dro store - they're about $5 for the "micro pore" stones, but they are well, well worth it. Takes about 10-15 minutes from start to finish of...
