With missles flying about I am thinking more short term right now.

If this is a Rdwc you will be giving nutes before it needs them as a seedling. I had a seedling missfire during the planting and relaunched a new seed. Then I had plants 3 weeks apart with different light and nutes requirments. Did not work out for me

I have done gardening in sips for years until recent age and physical issues but I am working on a hybrid outdoor. Will fence in back of the barn and place 3 tote sips with 2 plants each. Wheeled for moving into barn during bad weather. Gynormous metal halide bulb in barn for sublemental...

Put this on the door

sleepy dude

Kinda could. 6 inch filter 6 inch pvc every 1.5 feet a threeway joiner. You could make a line of them and as they clog another one takes the load. Totally impracticle for cost and time saved to swap out a filter. If you need huge capacity others have shown the big grow center filters.

I was told by a few Rdwc that my choice of 1 inch Id was to small and would clog. That is even smaller. After thinking about it I am going to add a valve in the reservior to reverse water flow in the order of buckets. Roots are not going to climb into the water in port against the flow but will...

Used to grow about a 1/2 acre but with age and back problems I do tomatoes only for the house. Morgage lifter tomatoes. Trained up a fence you can get 1000lb from 4 plants. About a 100 with a Cage.

The reason you use pcv and not flex duct is the airflow resistance of smooth wall pcv is very low. There are websites that can explain and even have data on resistance per foot and for a 45 or 90 turns. In addition your idea has merit but for a short part of your grow. Early on you need air...

At the recommendation of a master grower I am making a dam around the exit of all 3 containers that will stop wandering roots from finding the hole in the bucket. It will not stop a verticle decent by the roots but once they hit the floor they will not climb until the root mass is 3 inches tall...

Others have posted ideas for airflow diagnostics like lit cig along zippers and filling tent with huge vape hits and turning on fans. Never done it. I can track humidity and temp at 4 locations in grow area. I keep controller sensors at canopy level and have pretty acurate growee sensors in...

That is what will draw from the tents lower and cooler air. It will not pull as much humidity down but keeps temp up. Are you doing this to keep your temp up while venting the tent?

WC I am not sure. If the vents are left open how do you control temp in the tent?

I am trying to find a post a guy had on a very elegant peltier cooler that with proper airflow dropped...

Do you have a proper duct fan under control of a timer or app? Just setting a fan in front of an open pipe sounds like an insect prevention nightmare. If you have a standard duct extraction fan that ends at a carbon filter put it on top of the tent with a board of wood. Run the duct into the top...

Get a lux meter and look at your plants and write a journal to track. The settings for your plants are not in any book/guide/thread/or post. There are to many variables for strains/nutes/grow media for anyone to tell you what to set the light at. I am also a nub but after failing I learned that...

Run a duct from the top exit and pipe it with 4 inch pvc to the bottom of the tent. Follow a tent pole down to the bottom. The " air " will now exit the tent from the bottom. I have my extractor fan and filter on the top of the for clearance as it is a short tent. Based on this thread that is...

Data point entered. Ya know what they say folks. God answers all prayers. Sometimes the answer is NO!

As a high tolerance medical user I go from pleasantly medicated to greened out anxiety if I try to push it. In the past I remember some really high times but it always seemd to have another component to the mix. Pot and booze. Pot and opiods. highest was starwberry margaritas and hash oil...

From what I have read ice really only works for peak temp issues like a spike in temp during summer that will last a week. Icing a dwc every 4-6 hours for 16 weeks takes more discipline than I have.
