two more things,
1 a good friend sent me some of these "gromets" and gave me this incredible idea, I won't put him on blast but he knows who he is, his idea worked flawlessly! took a Lil work, and messing up a few times! but dam this is great, my problem was being able to tell if the sip is empty or dry, and how much the girl was drinking at any Givin time! well here's the results!
behind the middle piece of tape, is my overflow hole, hard to see, but I added that small piece of tape to know when to stop filling! also I
THINK that 1 inch space gap between the highest water lvl, and the lvl of the floor(where the soil sits) I THINK it's very important, can't prove it, but I've heard some things! I wouldnt do it without that "air gap". besides it prevents anything leaking from where I shoved the pvc pipe through the tote!
and for those of you that just don't give a shit about the sip pot or organics, and are only following along to see the gg4, here ya go, pic taken a few min ago, clearly the lights aren't out, but what I did was put my sun glasses over the cam, and set the cam settings to "incandescent"(it's a setting on my phone camera)
it's the morning of day 19 flower, since flip of 12/12. will post more and better pics at lights out, this trick only works well with pics taken from about 5-6 feet away!
also I swapped out the second led, bc it was just garbage, and half the lights weren't working, so to keep things even I had this big ass CFL laying around decided to replace it with that, I've been rotating the lights around and also swapping sides to keep things even, the hps, stays where's it at always!
