Do you think a 600w HPS would be overkill in this type of setup? Also, do you have your lights set up to move up and down on some kind of track as the plants get taller? Thanks

You have a killer setup. I really like it. You have given me a lot of ideas.

You may have answered it but your not growing different strains or different "time" harvest plants in one bp set are you? Reason I ask is cause one the different strain thing every strain is different and every one has a different tolerancy to nutrients. If you mix you could run into problems with say for example "strain 1" is a nutrient hog where as "strain 2 doesn't really like that much nutrients. You could end up either burning strain 2 or starving strain 1. 2 if you have plants that need to be harvest at different points you could run into problems with the harvested plants roots getting caught in the tangle of web of roots hahahahaha. I bet you already have all this covered I just am looking out for ya man. Love the grow love the plants KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Props on your enginuity, must have took some time and thought for the whole project.


1) Is the Stanley Blower Fan, Model #655702 the fan your using? Air Delivery (CFM): low, 190, med, 260, high 310

2) How is the noise reduction from the box you fabricated? Minor/Major difference?

Looks a bit crowed in there bro. Did you clean any of the bottom shoots off that aren't getting light? With the clones in their next round you should have a bit more space. I wouldn't pack it as full next time you'll have better light coverage.

Yo bro, cool stuff man. Enjoying this journal...good pix, relevant info...just how we like it!

Could i ask what gallons per hour your air and h2o pumps are? Im thinking that the h2o pump doesnt need to be massively powerful, while the bigger the air pump, the better...

cheers mate

i have a few different pumps, but the 160gph ones do the trick. my air pumps are something like 4 liters a min.

as for space the only reason the plants about ready for bloom are so big is that they were getting a nasty light leak i didnt find untill about two weeks into bloom and they just kept growing. im not to worried about the next few runs as i have kept the one right behind this one nice and short, also i dont have mixed strains in the same bucket for the next few. i basicly used these to be mothers for my up and comeing generations. also i may be swaping this 400watt for a 600watt soon.

well today i pulled the big plants out of the tent to lower the bin behind it a little. looking at the plants i decided to do a little bit of lsting to get all the tops about even, and to get a little better light coverage. i got about an extra 3 to 4 inches from doing so altho i know its not going to get much taller. took some pics for you guys. evan tho theres a few weeks left to go, any guesses on yield?

Great thread ! Thanks !
Im new to ponics and im still in the research mode ! I plan to do a soil grow for my first grow in a long time.
I read this whole thread and really enjoyed it . I built a ebb and flow system but plan to try the bp system also.
Im trying to get as much product as i can off 6 plants to stay within the states guidelines foe medical use. I was going to use ebb and flow with a 30 gal res with 5 gallon pots for large plants as possible ? Can you tell me what the seeds are in the small plugs ? Doesnt look like rw ? Your setup is awesome and i will be following for sure ! How often are changing nutrients in the bp setup ? Thanks
