really? I don't fully understand why, I see 6" PVC systems all over the place and that seems smaller then a 5 gallon bucket. Do you mean like the 40 Gallon Rubbermaid totes, per plant?
Thanks for the suggestion, I was browsing the local hydro stores today and realized just how big the 6" really is, but pre-built lids with net pots would be super easy. hmmm decisions.
Well, mainly because I want to do aero. I know it isn't the cheapest or simple, but I just really like the...
It's just the kind of person I am, I like to plan everything out and basically make myself a how to guide so I don't do random shit while I am building.
So do I!
Designs have stabilized and the money is in the bank. Ready to order parts! So excited!
Enclosure will be built with 1" PVC and Foylon walls. It will measure 5.3' x 3.75' x 6'. The enclosure will be anchored to pressure treated plywood at the base. If need be, it will also be anchored to the...
Thanks for all the great info! I am personally interested in Aeroponics, and realize it isn't the easiest way. Since I am only going to have 4 plants, a long fence post or pvc pipe isn't really needed I think.I'v decided on using a 5 gallon food safe bucket for each plant. Then I can root...
that's a great idea, I will test it out for sure.
I hadn't really thought about PVC degrading, will research it more. I think I will be upgrading to 1" PVC for better structure.
2 primary questions:
1. Am I silly in thinking I need this much access room to the plants? Should I make it smaller?
2. How does one attach Foylon to 1/2" pvc pipe? I am thinking adhesive velcro and overlapping flaps at the edges.
The Grow tent will be about 5’x5’x6′ made from 1/2" pvc, with a...
Howdy Y'All!
I have gotten so much mixed feedback about the use of Rubbermaid totes in hydro/aero system, I thought I might start a poll, see what is really being used out there.
thanks for the suggestions, I have been getting mixed reviews about using the Rubbermaid totes, and will likely upgrade to a proper botanical reservoir for the main reservoir and a food safe 5 gallon bucket for each plant.
I am having some trouble understanding where the mist nozzles should be placed in an HPA system. I will be using the 18 gal. Rubbermaid, but I will only be growing 4 plants, as that is the limit under Measure 91.
When looking for Rubbermaid build references, this is the typical setup I seem to...
