Cool Nice!
Lookin good bro! Thats a lot of hard work there... I'm finishing up a similar type of system, however I'm going to be growing SOG style instead. My setup is inside of a 4x4x7 growtent and I'm using 6" pvc instead of 4". One of the main reasons i went for larger pvc was because i may impliment nutrient fog into this unit, however that is still a "maybe."

I've never used a water chiller before, but I think this new setup I'm buidling may need one... they go for about $300?

Beautiful setups and beautiful nugs.
+rep for doing it right.
Stick around for some bud porn.


The chiller will run you anywhere from 350 to 400 but it's the only surefire way to keep your res cool. I wouldnt grow this way without it. Best of luck.

The screen is starting to fill up fast. The plants showed roots exactly 30 days ago yet I'm going to have to make a decision soon. The screen is approaching 50%.



I don't really have any good closeup "attach to the screen" pics. At this point I'm simply trainig them along the underside of the net. I don't weave my scrogs like some. I keep the plant under the screen. When I have to make a severe bend or get an internode to a particular hole I will use twist ties but I'm not to that point yet.



here isnt much light getting through the canopy at this point. Soon I'll start removing some of the fan leaves under the screen. I won't take bunches at a time but I will slowly but surely remove the growth under the screen.





Room temp - 70
Res temp - 66
PH - 5.6
PPM - 600

Yes, looking great wbinwv! How are they coming out of the other issue? They look like they have 100%, from what I can see; just the residual splotches---and they look really healthy.
I guess I have been very fortunate.....many times I have added plus or minus right in a flood table as its flooding/draining, with roots all over.......I dont think I have ever had an issue from it, but then those 'dud' plants every once in awhile..?
I can only imagine how long it took Earl to figure out the first time it happened to him.....and if not for the roots going down the tubes in tandem, each hitting the res in order---hard to tell...... I had never heard of anything like that........wow! Great lesson for everybody that doesn't realize that.......

......haha! --were ready to see some heads start popping out of that screen!!

Looking GREAT~!!~

Thanks for stopping by growinman! The nute lockout problem is solved and the canopy looks great. Taking the roots out of the res did the trick for sure. It sure is nice having Earl there to help.

Like you I am ready to see some buds. I have to be patient though, if I want max yield from this grow. I'm certain that by the end of this month I will have to flip to 12/12.

The screen is already 50% full. I hope you stick around for the XXX bud porn that's headed this way.

Late night update

It was time to take some of the foliage under the net. It was a jungle and needed to be done.



After a 30 minute trim session things are actually starting to look like a real SCROG.







The canopy is getting large enough that I'm going to start running the other 600 watter next week.

man +rep for the grow, it looks like you are doing a great job, i was actually looking at doing something like this for my next grow, but i decided it would be too much work. anyway, keep it up im subscribed so ill be checking up on you. haha. anyway, i wanted to give you some advice but it totally looks like you have everything under control so keep it up! but for your outdoor grow, the only thing i can honestly tell you is to piss in a circle around your plants, it keeps animals like deer and squirrels from eating your buds, and also supposedly helps with bugs.

Thanks bro. +rep for the advice on the outdoor grow. I pissed and left pee in a small bottle as well as a little beer for the slugs to drown themselves in.
