Malawi Gold ScrOG with Magenta Kessil

**Mohican** · 05-02-2012, 01:30 AM

This whole second res idea got me thinking about having a shelf instead of a table. This way I can slide the second res under the first one. I need to add some plumbing to the top res so I can transfer the water:

Bulkhead:

Drilling holes:

Installation:

Cupboard with shelf:

New plumbing:

I cleaned everything while I had the tote apart. Cleaned the sprinkler heads, pipes, filters, pumps, airstones and tubing... Everything works like new!

Cheers,
Mo

She loves the new system! I can add water every day easily and check the nutes and add nutes - this is great.

OK - some of the gurus on RIU said I might get algae from using clear tubing so I went with an upgrade. Plants like copper and my whole house uses copper plumbing so I custom built some copper pipes for my baby.

New plumbing:

Whole system:

Well I have much more growth now and several heads. I think it is time to put the Kessil to the test. What do you think?

Welcome FlowaMasta! I am glad you took time out of your busy grow to come by. You and Lordjin have really helped me get this far. I hope the results are worthwhile!

What happened to day 77? I do not know!

OK - I am getting ready to flip to 12/12. I have started by changing the lights to 16/8. I will keep changing by 2 hours till I reach 12/12. I put the screen back in and I will keep LSTing until I think she has filled in enough.

Day 78 Top Natural:

Day 78 Angle Natural:

The clone/top is showing nice big root nubs at 2 weeks since topping.
