Could you wire it to a dimmer switch, like for a light? I have thought of this one for a while. Suspend it with bungee cords first and see if that helps. Maybe some of the other guys may know a better way

Use the box the fan came in and cut holes (exhaust and intake) that line up with the fan intake and exhaust. Hook up bungees or whatever you are using to mount fan. Install any ducting or special flanges that can't be installed if you fill the box with filler. Fill box with sound deadening material, such as expanding foam crack filler.
Makes for a heavy unit but it is quiet.

i dont understand how some people cant achieve good yields from aero stink setup
ive grown from 2.5 foot to 4 foot plants.......from 4 on each 4 foot post to 8...(ive settled on 3.5 foot plants and 5 on each post)
if u run co2 and stinks recipe for nutes and good genetics and keep your ph at 5.8 and your ppm at 2000 or ec at 2.8 then u cant beat this system
u can run drip or flood and drain or dwc till ur blue in the face.....cant touch this sytem

Have you tried bumping up your PPM. They look like they could use another 500-700PPM on top of what you're running.
Unless of course you are flushing. Yellow leaves usually means you are Nitrogen deficient.
Crispy, burnt leaves is different. The only time I've seen that on my plants is when my AC vent came out and my room got way to hot. Only the tops close to lights burnt.
Are using RO water? I wonder what kind of stuff is in your water.
I wonder how much Chlorine you have in your water? RO will filter out the solid minerals but it won't filter liquids. You may need to let the water set out for a day before you use it. Letting it set out for a day allows the Chlorine to become a gas to dissipate into the air.
Chlorine will kill the natural fauna. That's why they put it in the water...

Thanks Lion..your theory sounds correct,, as an experiment i am going to move the plants to the left in the rotation instead of the right and see what happends,, if the theory is sound the hot spots will show up differently... but then again who cares right? if im getting nice yields and big buds then what does it matter.

Yea stink im using RO water, since i got my controller i thought the yellowing would stop.. the room temp is between 82-85.
Maybe i do need to bump up the nutes ,, but with these current racks i have a few blueberry and wanted to keep them at or around 1700... this current run i have bubba kush in the back and it stayed deep green up to about 7 weeks at 1700 before it started to yellow and crisp. i will try leaving the water out over night and see if that helps.
also,, its very strange,, this green crack i have rooted in 7 days the first few cuttings,, now i took 14 cuttings 16 days ago and they are still not popping roots.. ive monitored the ph every few days and its what ive always been at. so i dunno.
One more potentialy big problem is im starting to get these tiny little red bugs in my veg unit..some are brown and most are red.
any thing i can do?
thanks again...and just a reminder and BIG THANK YOU to STINK and LION and the rest of you guys out there,, this system has been bringing the BEST meds to my area and i am at the top of the shelf with my product..and guess what? I didnt know a thing 5 months ago. If you follow stinks directions then it WILL WORK.

AK-47 Is Now available as the long awaited AK 47 Feminized are easy to grow yet very strong and is therefore very popular. AK 47 plants are medium height and produce excellent yields quite quickly. Extremely strong odour and smoke. Quality without compromise makes AK-47 Feminized suitable for commercial grows or home use. AK-47 has a short flowering period for a sativa, producing compact, not too leafy buds that gleam with a coat of resin crystals. AK 47 Feminized seeds are an absolute must!

Actually i just thought of something stink. My water IS set out to dissapate.. i fill a 36 gallon tub with ro water every few days and it usually sits for a day or two before its used. Another thing i was thinking..ive always set my vent fan to come on during the night cycle.. for air circulation...my oscilating fan is always on day and night..could this be a problem?

It's been a couple of weeks since I posted any photos so here we go...
I am trying a new formula for my oldest girls. I mixed Pro Bloom Soil instead of the normal Pro Bloom. It has less of the nutrients for vegetative growth and more of the nutrients for flowering.
You can see from the photos how some of the plants have responded to the nute change.
I'll be starting my flush soon. I may have to leave a couple of plants in the system to finish.
The big plant close to the camera is my new strain I call Sour Goo. It's a mix between Skunk #11 and The Goo. It's covered in crystals and has a mild spicy smell.

This falls into line with what happened to my plants when they got to hot. The tops near the light where the only ones burnt. They looked exactly like the ones in your photos.
The fact that both Lion and myself both knew the cause of the crispies (heat) should help help you solve problems. Your room may be 85 but the plants right under the lights may be more like 90+.
That's great that you RO your water. That tells you it's not a chlorine or water issue. Everything is pointing to a heat problem...

Lookin good Stink! I'm a few weeks away from my first indoor harvest 
.
You had said "The big plant close to the camera is my new strain I call Sour Goo. It's a mix between Skunk #11 and The Goo. It's covered in crystals and has a mild spicy smell."
You're crossing the strains yourself? if so, how does that process go?

The pots keep falling over and the floor gets REALLY wet!
Sorry, I just couldnt resist.
The devil made me do it!
Yo Bra - good news on the plants - you can get rid of the burnt, dead leaves. So you sound like your done... but your still cruising, right? Your stuck with your StinkBuds, at least until the end of this current round, right?
For a hands-off grow - consider something with pots... You have a nice buffer for electric and nutrient issues.
Yeah - electricity is an important issue to consider when you grow! Number one, probably, as the safety of yourself, home, and others is at risk.
Most rooms have 2 x 15 amp circuits that are shared with other rooms of the house. Unless you specifically wire a room to grow, you will likely need to run power from additional rooms of the house. Lights are best run on a dedicated 240 / 30amp + circuit. Lights running at 240 require fewer amps and allow you to run more lights per circuit. You can run 1 x 1000 light on a standard 120 / 15amp circuit, or 2 x 600's. Nothing else can be on the same circuit as your lights.
My current harvest is still hanging. Using 3 layers of trellis made harvest tedious. Having to cut stalks out of the trellis was slow-going. The OG was pretty easy to remove, but the Headband grows like ivy and ran itself around everything. I will not be doing anymore HB in the futre. Anyway, I took some time over 3 - 4 days to harvest. I will be manicuring and doing final weight next week for most. I did do a final snip tonight on one of the first hangers I picked of OG. I didn't get through the whole plant, but I am at 23 grams of tightly manicured, super duper, grade A1, OG Kush for 1 plant; it will certainly yield over an ounce. I've taken some pre-cure test snaps and I am blown away! I have done numerous harvests of this same OG in different mediums, and this Stink stuff may be the best of all! I can't believe how well it smokes right off the line. After a cure - wow!
I will be sure to give a final tally and smoke report in a couple weeks!
My flower units are 3 x 6 hole posts for a total of 18 plants per.
I will let you know when the scissor hash settles on final yield.
Lookin' choice as usual... Yeah - Sour Goo! That is so killer the way you can make your own strains. I really want to try that. How do you then get Sour Goo seeds?
I used the Soil formula for the first week or 2 of flowering for my last batches and it seemed to work well... kind of eases the plant into the standard bloom formula. I used it again at the end of flowering. I never did it the other way so I have no comparison.
On that note - thanks, Stink... Just harvested my first two flower units with excellent results! The best boo ever! I have many ideas to improve yields, though I can not imagine the quality being better. I have seen many batches of the OG genetics I have, and in your system they shine the brightest; I mean, truly top notch - all time smoke! Thank you, Stink

I had to transport everything to my new DWC 3 gallon bucket system to fix the leaks for the PVC fence post.
I will finish my harvest in the DWC buckets, and see how well that goes.
I might return to the fence post but if i do i wont do 4inch pvc fence posts. I will do 6inch
Im going for bigger yields, 4 months is a long time! i want to make the best of it!
