Hey heath! I just stumbled across you because I came up with a hydro system like your mass gro I think, I did come up wit it on my own,its similar to yours but I searched everywhere hoping I was the only one, its a little different than yours, I was wondering what your logistics were on the system, so I can compare and see if I did come up with something? great minds think alike! Hit me back so I can explain what I did( 5in. Clones turned into 4ft monsters in 37days)Sorry missed your last question, the bypass is very simple on the output from the pump there is a "T" one side goes to feed the vertical and the other side of the "T" returns to the res and has a valve fitted. When I open the valve some of the output from the pump circulates into the res this helps control the flow into the vertical and also helps with oxygenation.

In case you haven't noticed if you are perusing this thread, Heath probably is done with this journal. It is a couple years old. This is actually my first post, but I have long been following some of these journals for ideas. I just don't like posting things at such forums so much. Anyways just because I wanted to help out people, and hopefully Heath doesn't mind, I compiled a PDF grow journal containing all of the pertinent information from this thread mostly.

how would you go about germinating that many lol?kana, yes of course
Just germinate using the normal methods ie wet paper towel then into large zip lock bag and put away in a dark warm place. I usually inflate the zip lock bags by breathing into them. Good luck.how would you go about germinating that many lol?
