okay a few question bro...

-what in the hell did you use the carwash thingy for...lol? the bubbler...explain how this works to me(I used the Mr. Clean autodry carwash system for a mini water filtration system<I saw this on some thread some where, I don't remember (but thanks to those guys). I hook it up to the outside water hookup. It Makes a difference in the ppm/ ph. All of the parts were part of the Unit. I just took apart and put things together the way the thread said to. Here is some updated pics of it.

how do you hook it up? what parts do you exchange out?

LoganSmith · Nov 21, 2007

The bubbler is a 1g container that I painted black (5 coats) I then drilled 13 holes (1/2") 4-5-4 in the lid. I then put 1/2" by 1/2" black pvc tubing (I split the tubing down the middle with a razor blade). I put those in the holes in the lid.

I Have a 20g air pump with two air lines(1/8") that run into the bubbler. One goes to a wond that runs down the middle of the tote. I also have a 1" air stone that floats around on top of the water.

I also have a heating pad under neath the tote to keep the water temp. at 80 d/f.

I leave running for 24/7.

Here are some pics

Interesting, very nice job, have you used it for clones before, does it actually work, just curious as I don't know anything about hydro..

LoudBlunts · Nov 21, 2007

so you got the filter stuffed in the bottle?

LoganSmith · Nov 21, 2007

Hey H.
This will be the second time thay I have tried this method. The first time I didn't put any effort into it. The temp was not doing well because I didn't have a heater.

This time I have the water ph to spec. no ec 0/ , I have a thermometer and a heat pad 24/7. It only has been going for a few days, so I will see what havens.

LoganSmith · Nov 21, 2007

Ya, its all togeter. The filter says it will last up to 10 car washes. So thinking about the amount of water use to wash your car x 10 might be in the range of 300 +- gallons. After that filter runs out I can buy new filters.

I only use about 2 gallons per watering.

LoudBlunts · Nov 21, 2007

OH!!! i didnt know that was a filter...i thought you turned it into a filter...i had thought originally that it was the mr. clean soap or some shit

Humboldt · Nov 21, 2007

I'm taking it it didn't work the first time, hope it works this round and I'm definitely sticking around to see the results, again good job!

LoganSmith · Nov 21, 2007

Thanks H.

It was a auto Cleaner- that had a soap dispencer and a knob that you could change the settings from rinse, soap, and super rinse autodry- This is the filter part. I just made a compact ver. now I just have it hooked up to the water pipe outside.

coo!!!!!!!!!

Ok so I have some new updates.

I have my new mother/veg/cloning area all set-up. I just need to do the flowering area.
I got the panda film and thats work great. I can tell the H. is gone up and the temp seems to be good. The H was never over 30% now its around 50%.

I'm using 4' t-12 bulbs only two for now, I plan on getting a min of two more but more like 4 more for a total of six, I,m thinking of two daylight 6500k, two cool 4100k, and two warm 2700k. I have found the bulbs at wal-mart, two for around 6 bucks. and the system for only 8 bucks.

The BB mother is getting bushy and short. She is around 6-8 months old so the clones that I have been taking should do well in flowering. I don't know what this strand will do for me as this will the first flowering of this strand.

I have good news on the clone test. I have three new clones that have rooted. two of the three are from the Take root powder from walmart ($6) the other one is dip n grow.

I have been having some issues with the clones in the bubbler. They are turning yellow and have not rooted yet I just change the water today.

LoganSmith · Nov 24, 2007

Here are some pics of the clones that have rooted.

LoganSmith · Nov 24, 2007

This is my second time tring to clone in the bubbler that I made, I have not rooted any of these clones yet and now the leaves have turned yellow. I changed out the water about an hour ago with a 6.3ph and .06 ec with a bio grow @ 1ml per L. this a quarter dose. The water temp. has been at 78-80df. The pump has been running 24/7.
Any ideas?

LoganSmith · Nov 24, 2007

In the clone test I also put a few in soil. I had put these in shot glasses this did not work out that well. I didn't have any drain holes and had no real way to take the clones out. I drilled a hole in the bottom(plastic S.G) this pushed the soil out and I was to take a look at the soil mass. I found a few more clones that rooted. So I transplanted them to solo cups.

LoganSmith · Nov 24, 2007

some more pics.

Humboldt · Nov 24, 2007

HOOAH!! you're doing it Logan, I'm soo excited for you, I sure hope mine take root, its been 8 days now and I can't see anything different other than they still look alive, exactly how long did it take for that root to show, also those the peat plugs or the rapid rooter things, remember what I'm using?

I sure would like to see that bubbler work for the clones, crossing my finger}x{

Keep up the great work buddy!
