What the medium, its hard to tell from the pics but to me it looks like your hand watering....that CANT be right with those screens. All is looking killer though! Is the PE from G-13???-S0uP

Holy top buds, batman! Nice.

pictures posted in horrible order lol... they are in week 7 starting tmr. i usually cut down end of week 8 but they are still growing like crazy so prob go 9 full weeks.

if you look at picture where it show under the scrog screen you see blk tubes going to each bucket. that tube goes to control bucket and rez outside the room to keep temps down for water in the rez.

pump fills control bucket which then fills tubes an fill plant buckets. feed every 3.5hrs while lights on.

blue bucket is my new 200gallon rez. i have one rez for 24 buckets. just need a chiller now for the 200gal containers...

veg, has one more week to go before going into another flower room.

I have a 6000 watt room that's like 11ft by 15ft and have a pulled 1 and a half of one plant under a 1000 watt so it is definetly possible, I've even heard two and that's my next goal. So in my opinion and the way your doing it I think you can. I'm roooooting for ya.

ricky6991 · May 21, 2013

ahh thats good... full lb off one?

i know people doing it but veg time is crazy long and takes ton of space.

Where did you get the 200gal rez and that cover for it?

I cant wait to get a nice room like you going. I did just under 3 lbs with my 2k watt scrog with a horrible yielding plant. Almost the same setup as you. Ebb and flow with adjust-a-wings. However, no CO2 on my part. I would raise your screen and let them veg out longer. You will love the yields!

Confucious · May 21, 2013

Well it takes an extra month of veg time so around two months from clone, but it keeps the plant count down. There's some pics in my journal of some of the plants I've done big like that.

next ones are inside different buckets which are taller. the left screen is 26" from the bulb(highest budsite), right screen is 34"... i do better canopy next time and get few inches higher to bulb and get bulbs to stay or side to side rather than hang like they do.

Confucious · May 21, 2013

is this your first time with this set up?

ricky6991 · May 21, 2013

yea, last time in same room i grew 12 strait up with 6 lights... yeilded 6 1/2 lb. so now doing 24 plants in scrog should do really well.

pic is right right before cutting them down and trimming. i swear buds almost as big as tops of the last 12 and theres like 100 of them hah

Confucious · May 21, 2013

right on man, yeah I see you crankin out some weight on this one.

ricky6991 · May 21, 2013

Nervous about it... last time was 8 zips each plant easy and in scrog i should be getting 8 zips plant easily but that would add up to way more than i think ill see.

Hi Ricky

Is this a flood an drain style system?

If so how long does it take the water to leave your res an come back again, as i have a similar set up moved from the bubbler style an cant seem to get my feeding times right!

ricky6991 · May 22, 2013

yes it is... i water every 3.5hrs. when watering the rez is 55gallons of nutes. it fill one bucket and that one buckets high level will make all pots connected to it the same water height. it only stays on for 15minutes from start filling so realistically my buckets only filled up completely for 5min or mabe less. but then draining takes time also so the plants get plenty of water.

machead · May 22, 2013

thanks for info few more questions (haha)

whats your flood level an is there any rockwool in your medium?
