Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

Stink, great thread.

I was wondering if you could flower in the veg system. If so, any idea what the max yield would be per plant? There are more spaces but, I assume they would not be able to get as big due to spacing.

The dimensions of my room is awkward so, I have to fit things differently.
You are better off vegging in the flower system or running a couple of Aero/DWC systems.

My sprayers were constantly clogg ing with shit (I add unstrained tea and myco granules ) I've since pulled the head of the pump, and just have it directly spraying at the lid, fountain style..2 have rooted, if the rest take its not a fluke..does seem excessive though...
 
Maybe a 90• off the pump at the right level would create a pretty good current, which would bubble up and burst into the air,...
Might help the stems from getting to wet and rotting which was my issue

If i were to build this cloner, seeing as it looks like it works really well for you. would i be able to transfer them into soil whenever i switch them to veg?
 
After 3 weeks the best 14 plants move to the veg system.

I use a dual container aeroponic system. The roots grow straight down which makes the plants easy to transfer to the flower room when the time comes.

The plants are under a 250W MH light set to 18/6.

Again, all my systems are on the same timer set to 1 minute on and 5 minutes off. This gives the roots the maximum amount of Oxygen without letting them dry out.

I run this nutrient formula for vegetative growth:

Botanicare Nutrients:

126ML Cal-Mag Plus
180ML Liquid Karma
540ML Pure Bend Pro Vegetative Formula

I start at 1500 PPM and bring it up to 2000 PPM by the second week of veg. I change the nutrients every 3 weeks with each new crop.

I adjust my PH to 5.8

Stay tuned for more...
I would like it if you could also list what you use for Flowering Nuts?

I have a solution for the veg system:
It has 64 netpots/sqm (I used 3" netpots, can acomodate 2") and its feature is to keep the roots separate from each other, they never get tangled and the system cannot be clogged. It uses a 10 gallon reservoir so it uses very little water and nutes.
Its 25 days from seed:
- first 7 days in a regular cloner(french platinum system)
- 18 days in the veg system (DIY)

First pic is second day in the veg system. 9th day from seed
Second pic is 25 day from seed.

What do you think about it?

How does everyone use this system from seed? I would imagine rockwool cubes would stay too moist to be effective. Sorry if I missed this in the 340+ pages, I did read them all

Temps could be high. What's your cycle timer running on? Your pump could be warming up the water. All you need is just plain ol tap water. No need for roots excelurator. I run 4 minutes off 1 minute on. I throw in a couple of frozen water bottles for security measures. Plus there's no need for airstones.

From seed I use rapid rooters and I play with my cycle timer in the beginning so that the rapid rooter doesn't stay to moist or wet. For example 20 seconds on 45 minutes off...

So got the cloner setup, so far so good. Problem is I am seeing decent roots after 2 weeks but the leaves are wilting badly.. Thoughts?
