Sub'd!
Looks like a sweet setup!
I've got a four 5"x5" fence posts with 24 total sites...are you worried that in week 2 you're plants are already invading each other's space?
Also...what do you think about AN nutes? I'm using GH 3part series in Veg and am considering using AN for flowering? Good idea, bad? Do you use the Sensi AB or the Connissuer? And what additives of theirs did yo use?
Sick video too...

These are all seedlings, we should loose half to males. With this setup the plants will be mostly a main cola. We have been using Advanced Nutes Sensi Grow A & B all through veg and will switch to Connoisseur today. Have been adding Thrive Alive B-1 and Fox Farm's Open Sesame, still need to get Bud Kandy and I think Big Bud.

Ah very nice...thanks for the info. +rep
Couple more quick questions plz, if ya don't mind...do you adjust the pH at all? Do you even check it, if so what's it at? (I've read all too much on AN's "perfect pH")

With this smallish tank (25gal), I'm checking 3-4 times a day and often adding Technaflora's "pH up" & 'pH down". We keep the pH at 5.5 to 5.8 and the ppm at 1100 to 1300 for this week, bringing the numbers up to about 1900 at harvest time.

So you don't subscribe to AN's claim to be pH perfect? or do you not know what I'm talking about?

I did just see their claim of perfect pH but haven't been experiencing it. Going to use Connoisseur and Kushie Kush and probably Over Drive.

It's a 1000 Watt 'Sun Pulse' metal halide.

Thanks, the room is 5' x 6', 10". For the plumbing we bought a few sticks of 1/2" and 3/4" PVC and all the connection pieces at Home Depot. The 1/2" runs along each tube with a sprayer head stuck into it at every plant so they all get hit from 2 sides.
This is a picture of a hydro store's set up. Mine is the same except I ran 3/4" PVC over the top and used a 'T' to go down into a 1/2" 90 which attached to the inside sprayer line.

Thanks. Now I have to locate some fence post that is not the inline kind with the pre cut slots. Is your pump on a timer?

I bought a rebuilt timer which failed in the 'OFF' position and killed a plant. The replacement isn't here so I'm using a cheap-o 15 minute on/off analog.

Hey this is EXACTLY the same setup I've had in my head for the past week or 2 except mine is going to be a 21 site and I was planning on using 2 600w. By having the reservoir outside was temp okay or did you have to use some method to cool it down, also what size pump did you use? Thanks!
but screw it! keep up the great work!Similar threads
