thanks for the info man.
how do you attach to air stones to one pump?
Yea, you can get it all at Wal Mart or any fish store for a few bucks.

Ended put giving mine a little maintenance right now and took a pic of what it it looks like without the top. It's really very simple, just plug your single pump into the splitter adapter and then add your air stones/sticks...whatever they're called, lol

Both tents are running at 90F right now and we haven't even hit peak summer yet. This can't be good... I need to set up my exhaust and intake to go through the window ASAP

thanks for the info guys. i dont really think mine should need 2 though, my airstone is about half the size of one of yours but it is also in a small butter container as well. do you submerge your cuts in the water or have them like an inch or so above it so it just stays moist and not drenched?
sorry for all the questions about it but i really want a bubble cloner to work for me.

maybe thats what im doing wrong then, mine were about a half inch above the water, but the cuts never dried. i thyink next time i place something in it i will submerge it like you do to see if it helps.
i do got a rose cut i took about to pop roots in soil

That sounds more like an aeroponic set up, they hang but not submerged in water, just sprinkled or mysted. Bubbleponics, unless I'm wrong, you keep them submerged and they get their oxygen through the air stones. I only added a second one after I noticed the one's directly over the bubbles were rooting faster than the one's farther away from the bubbles

I am going to save money for high electric bills this month and next month. I popped my A/C on just for my fucking plants and me to be cool, way too hot for this time of the year. I could be shutting down this summer cause I dont want to deal with heat issues. Maybe veg a real sick LST plant during the summer and flower it in winter. This is my 1st summer growing so I dont even know what its like, I started in Sep and then I had heat issues in October...LOL

Peace

all right then next time i use it i will submerge them and see if that helps out any, i may need another small airstone for that to to pump enough oxygen into the water.

I think I read somewhere that more oxygen is better, at the very least it can't hurt.

Last night I found a fully developed tiger striped seed in my Blueberry x Hawgsbreath and just now I saw the male flower in my bud so I'm guessing she self pollinated. I'm gonna plant it next weekend if that Sharksbreath seed I found doesn't sprout :leaf:

The last 2 days sucked, my temps got as high as 93F in the veg room and 90F in the flower room. Last night I added 2 CFL's in my veg room and turned my 200w CFL off, temps dropped to 84F in about 20 minutes. That thing is just too damn hot. I need to get rid of it and replace it with LED and finish my exhaust or it's gonna be a shitty summer...

This morning I connected my 200w CFL to the rooms light switch, that way I can just turn it on or off depending on the weather until I can get my LED. Craigslist has had a few LED's lately and good prices but we just paid rent and got groceries, fuck this pay check to pay check bullshit :wall:

what kelvin is your 200 watt cfl. i have a 6900k blue spectrum.
i ran mine in in a tiny box for veg and my temps never got high, the bulb got warm but never does it get hot.

I'm not sure, I'll have to check it out next time the lights go out...

This thing runs incredibly hot, I even had a small fan pointed at it when I had the space and it made no difference. I think fixing my exhaust to go straight out the window and switching to LED for vegging should get me by this summer

be care full lwith vegging wiht led and then putting them under hps. ive seen light bleaching when the swap happins cuz the led doe snot compare to hps and i personally dont think it even compares to a cfl.

I'm not sure, it was part of a package I bought off this guy on craigslist, the package was so cheap I basically got this light for free and have been using it ever since. I think I'm gonna sell it on clist and use the money to buy some regular cfl's but keep the hood. I'm thinking about drilling 3 holes to the hood and installing 3 sockets with splitters in each one and 26w cfl's with different spectrums instead of LEDs.

that sounds like a great idea man.
if you bought it off CL it could just be it is old and runs hot now. im not sure just a thought.
i like the 3 cfl idea though

Thanks, I got a new idea today. I might be able to drill some holes in the reflective hood and add some sockets with splitters and 6 cfl's to use in my veg tent. That would leave the cord and socket for the 200w cfl as an extra part so I'm thinking about throwing it into my flower tent for supplemental and see if the temps will stay low enough to run both :D

Gotta wait till I get paid this weekend so I can buy all the parts and try it out.

The seed I got from SB#2 popped soil yesterday and I started my Dinafem California Hash a few days ago, still waiting for her to crack soil, if she does...

All 4 of the Sour OG's seem to have revegged successfully, they were all sprouting single leafs for weeks but all the new growth are regular mj leafs.

I'm down to 2 BK98 clones in the bubbler and I think I might have to kill another one. The mother is big enough to take a few cuttings before flowering her next week.
