    pipe layout and pressure...

    Yeah my bad, gph not gpm... but yeah it's the og 60 site, not the newer 64 site one... but it came with a 1057gph pump... I always thought it looked a bit big but never really bothered to check it out but I always noticed it was quite a bit bigger than any other pumps I've bought over the years...

    Ebb flow garden system

    id say go with either a full on nft/aero setup or a small flood table and use small square pots... that system in the pic has a few things going on that I can't see as being "good"... maybe not really bad either but it would require a lot of work to clean by looking at it... my flood and drain...

    pipe layout and pressure...

    I think with the aero cloner manifolds it's more about an easy to produce projection molded piece that snaps together than anything... we're honestly splitting hairs at this point, but in a single piece of pipe it's obviously gonna work better because you only have one section to force the water...

    pipe layout and pressure...

    The the thought of the water slowing down when it hits the 90's and tees etc... is true in a typical plumbing system (actually it's more about turbulence than pressure loss) but with a "looped" manifold; once the manifold is full of water and the pump pressure evens out once all the misters are...

    3 lbs a light publication

    I'm not sure about 3#'s per light but defoliating plants is usually done with sog style grows where your working with single cola plants and lots of them.... I am doing something similar to what I'm talking about but my idea came from a thread on a different forum running hempys in 2l soda...

    Does using RO water increase chances of getting Root Rot?

    Unless you used something to scoop water out of your water bucket that u dipped into one of your teas or anything organic prior to using it to get water out of your water bucket and then "double dipped" it back into the water, that should be the only way you'd have something growing in there...

    Clay pebbles/flood and drain

    If your flooding up to the rw cube your good, more watering is better with hydroton (which is why I don't use rockwool cubes) but even though they don't look like it; the clay pebbles do hold some moisture.... I use no other medium aside from gro-stones which are similar as far as water...

    H202 and Enzymes

    I'm not 100% sure enzymes are "life" for h202 to kill off per say... I'm pretty sure people use them together but I'm not 1 of them so I'm actually just talking out of my ass here but actually I have at least used hygrozyme before but never with h202 so yeah I am talking outta my ass I guess but...

    Clear snot slime. Cut all roots sticking from net pot. Recover or just toss?

    On what the existing problematic plants or clones? As far as the existing ones I would think just getting them going in the right direction with minimal products and let them do their thing new roots will follow... I use as few "products" as possible...some work as advertised but some don't do...

    Clear snot slime. Cut all roots sticking from net pot. Recover or just toss?

    Yeah anything above 70 is no good, 70 max unless you're running h202 and even then I'd still say 70 max... I'd say skip the benes and anything organic and go with a sterile res/synthetic nute regiment... not familiar with humbolt but for a beginning hydro grower I'd suggest sticking with a...

    Clear snot slime. Cut all roots sticking from net pot. Recover or just toss?

    Clear snot slime sounds like algae.... any light getting into your nutrients or hoses or to anywhere your nutrients go? What are your nutrient/water temps? How are u growing? Are u growing hydro using organic methods or sterile synthetic res/nutes?

    Tent vs room

    Old thread but couldn't help replying... you said your space is 6.5' tall/high.... unless you buy tents that are 6' tall which are tough to find in bigger than 3x3 your gonna have issues as most tents are usually closer to 7'... I've always ran tents in my last space but I was blessed with 9...

    Blulab Guardian combo meter review

    I think we all did the some of that at one point or another in the beginning... I can only imagine the number of growers that got extension cords criss crossing,with dollar store surge protectors loaded to the max on 15amp split breakers or a fused service even... without a fire extinguisher for...

    Blulab Guardian combo meter review

    I appreciate the concern but I actually run dedicated 20amp breakers to each of my ballasts on actual grow grade timers but way back when that happened I was running junk timers but I've always ran new dedicated 20ampers to my ballasts with 12-2 on new 200amp services.... luckily nothing...

    anyone used a transmission cooler as a water chiller?

    I understand the basics but I couldn't get past the part about getting heat out of 50-something degree water... I know obviously there's heat pumps n compressors involved n that's where plumbers shake their heads n say naahhh... I'll pipe it...lol.. I wish I got into the hvac side of it cuz...

    Blulab Guardian combo meter review

    I hear u dude... I specifically went outta my way and saw somewhere in the description that the ppm meter read from 0 to 2000 or 3000, maybe higher but all I cared about was from zero up... then I get it and it's literally the same pen I had prior to starting hydro (don't use a ppm pen often in...

    anyone used a transmission cooler as a water chiller?

    Hey man we all fuck up... I've literally bent 1000's of feet of soft tubing (mostly 3/8 oil line but pretty much every size up to 2" k) and I managed to break 2 dehuey lines, 1 exploded and leaked out all over the place (sorry world) and the other i managed to stick under the water in the res I...
