http://greenislandsgardens.com/5_gallon_ebb_and_flow.html There ya go! 5 gallon Ebb & flow bucket system.

I just kinda eyeball it, seeing what the plant wants/needs. Right now (in soil, 3 weeks into flowering) I am giving 1/2 FP 1/2 Bloom with a splash of pro-tek and mag-pro. But the other day I saw a slight paleness on a couple lower leaves, So I gave them almost all FP for that watering. Right now...

Yeah I just veg them in a tray. I mean any transplant is going to shock. But my plants were looking great a day after they got into their new home. Now they are super stoked.

Heres a few of mine in 3 gal roots organic soil, feeding DG. 3 weeks in. Grape Krush, an uncontrolable Durban Poison lol, and Island Sweet Skunk They are getting 3/4 FP, 1/4 Bloom and a dab of Mag-pro. Will soon be adding more bloom obviously. I just like keeping em green :) And a glimpse of...

Once my lights come on I will. Today is week 3. I haven't lost a single leaf yet! Lots of nice budsites coming along.

The long corded one is great for me, as I use 55 gallon drums with just 2 very small openings at the top. No way i could reach my hand let alone my arm in there with a pen to check it. I just drop the probe in, 5 seconds later I've got my reading. And then I use it to check the solution I'm...

Beginner's and experts alike use DG. I've ran all the other bullshit companies bullshit snake oil. and Now running this stuff, its the easiest, best results, and just all around awesome to use. They make a great product. The landscaper store did jack their prices up. But you can get it...

Yeah I see better results from feeding with pro-tekt than foliage spray. I'm 3 weeks into flowering with Dyna-Gro. That Foliage-pro is the shit!!! It's keeping every single leaf on the plant. I am slowly lowering the FP and adding Bloom and Mag-pro now. I think I will always give them some FP...

Lower leaves, main stalk leaves turning yellow is almost always N deficiency. I crank my ladies with N far into flowering. Leaves are what make buds not fertilizer. Keeping as many leaves as you can throughout flowering will increase your yeilds. Leaves are how they photosynthesize utilizing...

Top notch work Kitty!

Sorry I dont have something legit up of my new system. I like running the cube in the system, kinda gives them a base to work with. Also makes it super easy to have vegging clones in cubes ready to go into the system. I could be wrong..... but I like watering 3-4 times a day no matter what...

I haven't used one. But when it comes to a meter, I'd go with a name brand you can trust. Those mountable meters are nice. But u can only use it there. Which sucks. I like my Milwaukee MW802 portable meter. http://www.eseasongear.com/miinmwsmphec1.html Few extra bucks but way worth it for...

yeah run them at least 3 times a day. 4 would be optimal. I'm doing 5 right now cause I just transplanted and trying to get the roots to spread out from the rockwool. How long does it take to completely fill your system?

Go for it! If your worried about it getting too soaked, just dont bury it so deep that just the bottom 1/3 is getting hit with water. but make sure u have something covering the top of the rockwool to prevent algae. Rockwool is a great media. It will usually hold the perfect amount of moisture...

I start mine out in 3x3x4 rockwool cubes. Veg them in the cubes, then when ready for flower they go into my system. I bury my rockwool cubes pretty deep in the pot so that the bottoms of the cube get soaked with water. IMO you don't want the top of the hydroton wet, especially at night when...

Theres a little bit of flexibility. not a lot though. but I wanted my system to fill extremely fast. with 2 hookups per bucket, its a failsafe for clogging and fills more rapidly. The whole thing floods in 5 minutes flat. Each line can be maneuvered pretty easily, and as always u can pick a...

I use the 707. Is cheap. Works great. Doesn't hold too much water. stays pretty stable. It will shrink after a lil while but almost all soils do that. Just top the pot off when it does that.

The 5 gallon ebb an grow is done! Took me forever to get it right but its done and working flawless. And y'all were right 220 gallon res was way too much. But it leaves room for expansion on it. And its done, leak free, circulating perfect. Hopefully my ladies enjoy the 2.5x upgrade of media...

Thanks research! I addressed the problem of trying to get all the res's the same. I start by just making each res equal(water, nutes, etc) Then I have a 400 GPH pump in one res with a 3 way splitter. one tube running to each res. I run the pump for 30 minutes every hour, plus airstones in each...

I rigged up 4 55 gallon drums. 1 1/4" grommets at the bottom. connected with 1 1/4 inch pvc. Sealed with silicon. Works like a dream. But i need a 1000+ gph pump in the res. Also I've got a siphon problem going from the res to the controller. any ideas?
