Considering this totally different, do I add your formula for veg and flower at the start of each cycle and keep it replenished as i go or do I add at let's say week one and then at week two and so on?
I also have some Sweet Leaf from Advanced Nutrients from my last grow. Can I use it instead of the Sweet that you mentioned during the flowering phase? Sorry for sounding confused....

Use a PPM meter and keep it topped off at 2000PPM. Add more when it drops. keep your PH at 5.8.
I would go ahead and use the Sweet Leaf that you have and when you run out buy Sweet. |

just wondering what the overall length of the flowering aero system is. i see the fence posts are about 42" with caps and stuff. i need to fit the system into a space thats about 48x52. you think i could just spin the res and put it under the fence posts? i have plenty of vertical so thats no problem.
thanks for the work, awesome design! ive never messed with aero before. but it looks promising.
lastly is there anything to look for that will tell you a sprayer has popped out, or do you just need to inspect each one manually? maybe a pressure gauge on the 1/2" pipe so u can see if the pressure drops a sprayer head has popped out? |
after looking over it again i found the co2 stuff. and thanks for the info on the sprayers. happy growing |

The roots run down the fence post. Sprayers run inside the fence posts on the PVC pipe.
Part and tool lists are on the plans.
I wrote a whole post on C02. You may have to read the whole thread to find it.

(and this one might be me simply overlooking a post somewhere) do you have a parts/materials list for the specialty parts such as the pumps and regulators? i know what kind of piping and sprayers and tubs you are using, im just confused mainly about ur co2 system setup. sorry for all the questions, i know you probably answered all of these questions in your posts but i seem to have missed them.
thx for all the info on the forum and any possible info you can provide.
