also, i believe you doxed yourself.

Wondering how you intend to put the 1/2" pipe into the 1" pipe. Also I thoguht 3/4" was standard for hoses, Might be better off using standard things like tees, and a 3/4 to 1/2 compression adapter. I strongly suggest fitting some pieces together before hand, if they feel snug, its probably the...

Thanks again

Thanks for the replies guys, I thought it was maybe manganese based on the descriptions and this ph chart I had been looking at. I didn't realize Mn was a micro nute... thus probably not the issue. What ph should I be running at, and should I maybe use some of the foxfarms flushing stuff I...

Been vegging around 5.8ph, doin low pressure aeroponics/nft. I think at 5.8 manganese might be locked out... check out pix of my leaves and please confirm/advise. im concerned about the chlorosis/yellowing between and the necrotic/red spots on some of the leaves. Veins still appear green...

hey thanks for the reply, i haven't added any yet... probably just make changing water more of a pita too

I was thinking about putting a bunch of hydroton into the reservoir, i figure it would act as a filter, but more importantly, give beneficial bacteria a home to grow? What do you guys think? am I just asking for trouble from hostile microbes?

how many plants/what size were you looking to grow? I could maybe suggest a DIY route, if you've got some basic tools like a drill etc.

I went with the smallest submersible pump the local hydro shop had, its only 160gph. I read somewhere that the ez clone spray head/nozzles that I'm using are somewhere from 8-12 gph each, and I have 12 of them per bucket (which is probably way overkill). I don't notice them adding any heat to...

hey, just thought i'd let you know no one can see that picture, its only on your iphone/pad thing. Try reposting

Can someone talk about optimal PH range for Aero? I see lots of varying information, and the more I think about it the more questions I'm left with. Is this something dependent on the type of fertilizers/nutrients being used, why is there a difference between soil, hydro, and aero, etc... I've...

hey I don't know how practical this is, but i've heard of people using large tubs of water, just in the room, as a way to maintain the heat. Or I saw someone else commented about using the ground, perhaps if you had a wider/flatter reservoir it might stay a little cooler (assuming the ground is...

Check out my post... If you're interested in my setup I am willing to do a write up for ya, or maybe help you come up with some ideas to customize it

Hey for the temp of the reservoir, can you maybe put some jugs of water in the freezer/fridge (if freezer, remember to pour some water out first because it will expand) and then dunk those in your reservoir? That way you can keep it cool without actually adding the water.... and thus changing...

There is an additional pump inside. I figured I'd opt for redundant cheap pumps that were more easily contained... and it makes it kinda modular, can add in a bucket or take one out with not much modification. Check out the inside of the bucket! If anyone has any advice, im open to both...

Just wanted to do a first post, and show off part of my setup, looks like some of the clones are very happy, others the root development is really lacking. I put a lot of time into designing the bucket... pvc spray nozzle, with a bell siphon. So its kind of dwc hybrid aero system. The bell...
