    5gal, dwc bucket insulation

    Agreed. My odyssey with hydro has shown me that simple fact. Having pretty tight controls on the system is critical. Another option I have used that gave me almost the same yield as my hydro runs was a simple drain-to-waste with 3 gal. coco/perlite. That was as idiot-proof a system that I've...

    5gal, dwc bucket insulation

    I insulated the totes with bubble film. That prevents sweating on the outside of the totes. After the system reaches its set-point(66 in my case) and the system stabilizes, the chiller will operate about every 15 minutes for about 3 minutes. The chiller just monitors temps until it exceeds my...

    5gal, dwc bucket insulation

    My 1/4 hp chiller that runs my 4-17 gal tote rdwc system works with about 40 gallons total volume and I barely notice a difference on my power bill. Well worth the investment if you want to run hydro.

    Compound HQ's Grows

    That's one of the things I like the most about your thread, having an insight into how much effort it takes to be a commercial level grow. I have spent some time pheno hunting, and it can be both tedious and rewarding. Guess it's just part of the journey. Folks like you keep encouraging me to...

    Disastrous!

    I built a simple frame for trellis netting stapled to furring strips and drywall screws to assemble. Using some method to support the colas(cage, netting, or yo-yo's) is what I've tried to incorporate into all of my grows. https://photos.app.goo.gl/YGEpGfbtV46iWtX57 Another suggestion for hydro...

    Guys need help

    I just use a 30-60x loupe to look at the trics. I let them go until I don't have clear trics left. The last few weeks are the toughest...that's why I always keep a stash.

    Samsung F Strip Build

    I can't give you direct comparisons, but on the 44" double-row F strips I use as outriggers on my Vero arrays, I have them mounted on a simple 1/8"x 2" wide aluminum strips. When run at test current, it will run @ 50 degC and barely gets warm when run @ 75 watts. A pair of 320- watt constant...

    Can police detect a 300W Led light with helicopters?

    I wouldn't worry about surveillance. I would be concerned about how crowded it's going to get in that space with 5 plants.

    Thc8 wtf

    If I'm not mistaken, delta8 isn't present in cannabis in any appreciable amount. It is produced in a chemical reflux reaction from CBD base stock. That is usually found in high concentrations in hemp strains.

    Taking oral dosages problems

    Normally get a nice amber shatter. I think some folks use iso-alcohol, but I'm not familiar with it.
