I use it the same as your tote. The advantage is the lid snaps and seals, the dis-advantage it that less water and lid area.
Pics will clear it up I think. 250 gph pump and like 9 or 10 sprayers inside on 1/2" pvc.

Please excuse the mess in my garage.
Ill use the excuse that I am newly moved and still unpacking....
I like the 5 gallon cloner. It seems like it would work real well just for less plants.

I have 10 clones in it, but takes up about 1 ft2. I have another lid that I cut out 7 holes.
Spare lids are like $1 only
Thats great but I need 12 clones for my sea of green flood and drain grow that is coming up next so I will stick with the 18 gallon tote. I think I can fit about 20 cuttings at once but am not sure I will need that any time soon. I like the scalability though.

Last time I was putting a few clones in each hole. I prefer one per hole though.
I think the small amount of water in mine leads to warmer temps and mold.

I am with you on one cutting per hole, you don't want to impede on their personal space. How much water do you put in your cloner?

I have like 3 gallons in there. I could use a longer double threaded 1/2" piece to raise the sprinkler heads more and maybe be like 3.5-4 gallons

They don't make smaller 'plugs' for the cuttings (for the cloner)? I was thinking one of those rubber stops for a chemistry flask would be pretty good - smaller diameter.

ive tossed a few in the same plug when i used my bubble cloner. no harm no foul. it didnt do anything different. had them separated tho so they werent touching down below. ive been looking into making one of the ones ur talking about but actually buying the spray nozzles from the hydro store to put in it. just need the space first. now that i have the 4x8 in the living room i should have the room for a 2x4 tent in the bedroom. im starting to think me and berkman are in competition to see who can get the most equipment put to use. lmfao. ;)

I think rubber stoppers will be too dense, the neoprene collars are nice and squishy and don't hurt the stem.

agreed. ive got 2000s and a 2 400s running. soon to be another 600 tossed in for vegging the fat chicks. ;) what u got? oh and fuck a nigga named undercurrent co2 5x5. lol. ;)
I know where the (2) 1000s are but where are the (2) 400s?

I only have 1600 watts of HID and a few fluorescents right now but I will have the other 1000 watts up in 2 weeks.

We have to come up with a point system for yield because that will have to factor in on the total score. It's not all about wattage, we have to make a well rounded point system that considers methodology and difficulty as well. :twisted:

I have been tossing around the idea of doing a flooded tube vertical grow but the PVC alone costs upwards of $400. I do like the simplicity and efficiency when it's all up and running; one light, one pump, and a couple of fans.

I gotta separate the roots when I pull them out, but if I am careful and slow(not my thing) they dont get hurt.

Jigfresh does it in a 3x2 closet I think and gets more from there than I do in my 4x4 tent.

Yeah I was looking at his and Heath Robinson's thread from a while back. It is very intriguing. I will have to do it sometime, just not sure I want to do it at my current place. We will see how things play out.
