thanks mindphuk.....ive already calculated from those calculators...just curious what he set his to.
Im thinking 1.5ft an hour for 30 minutes off for 3, 3 times during lights on...with exhaust coming on 15 min before each injection ought to do it.......all i need now is my RO machine AND I WILL FINALLY BE ALL SET.

Here is my formula for my flower room:

Botanicare Nutrients:
126ml Cal-Mag Plus
150ml Sweet
180ml Liquid Karma
540mlL Pure Bend Pro Bloom

The Mix

Mix all the nutrients in a spare gallon milk container. Add water and shake well. The whole mix will take an 18 gal reservoir to 2900 PPM.

Add about half of the mix and check your PPM. It will be low so you will have to keep adding nutrients until you get it to 2000 PPM.

It is easy to add more nutrients but hard to take them out If you go over you have to drain some nutrients /water from the res and add more plain water.

That's why you want to take it slow at first.

Always adjust your PH after you set your nutrients PPM.
Fill the res with water and start adding the nutrient formula until it reaches the correct PPM.

What PPM level you run depends a lot on what strain you are running. 1700-2000 PPM is a safe number to start at but some strains can handle over 3000 PPM.

Every couple of days I add water. As the plants use up the nutrients you will have to add more formula. It's really too easy!

All you need is a cheap PPM meter. You need a PPM meter that goes to at least 2000 PPM. Stick it in the water and read the number.

Same with PH. Just put the meter in the water and it will tell you the PH. If it is below 5.8 you add PH up. If is above 5.8 you add PH down.

I run this nutrient formula for vegetative growth:

Botanicare Nutrients:
126ML Cal-Mag Plus
180ML Liquid Karma
540ML Pure Bend Pro Vegetative Formula

I start at 1500 PPM and bring it up to 2000 PPM by the second week of veg. I change the nutrients every 3 weeks with each new crop.

I adjust my PH to 5.8

Though you may already know about it, have you seen this DIY project?: http://www.gardenscure.com/420/construction/103932-diy-wiring-telaire-co2-monitor.html

I found cables to make the correct style of quick disconnect for a PPM-1c type wiring. I found a CAP CO2-4 on ebay for less than $200, so along with my $99 Telaire unit, I have a full exhaust controller and PPM monitor for under $330. Now I have to admit, I probably got really lucky on that CAP unit because she had it listed in the wrong category.

check this out. its only for a 10% off but. I wonder if you can buy the program or have to pay anually to use it. Im thinking after a year or so getting something like this. http://cgi.ebay.com/Advanced-Co2-and-Temperature-Controller_W0QQitemZ230326509323QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item230326509323&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72:1205|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:0|293:1|294:50

how many sprayers do you have and what size pump are you running?

not sure what kinda sprayers im gonna try and get some pics, im hoping they work,

lil to late i already drilled holes for them hehe

i cemented the mister part,

QUESTION: should i not SEAL the ends so i can run it without them to get any pz's of plastic out? cause those will clog my misters for sure.

anyways, i got a 400 gph pump.

andd uhhh

im almost done, fuck im a dumb ass so that was really hard for me sealing it up making it str8.

guys, don't order AC units online, pick one up at your local shop!!!
this will save your a$$ when you fry your unit in mid summer heat
online will take forever to replace your unit = ruined crop

also this generic unit isn't sufficient to cool down a hot room!!!
go for a larger BTU unit as much as you can get,
i think the max is 14k BTU for a portable unit before things get complicated

here is a god place to get your unit if you still insist on getting one online
best prices, awesome service, the biggest online warehouse for cooling equipment, a walk in store to top it off
Genie AC

i got the Soleus bLX-140 14000BTU 115v $514.30
(i will only be using its cooling functionality, heat, humid etc.. are all external)

I already have a unit like this. Problem is it sucks all the CO2 out of the room when it is running.

I need a unit with a separate intake so I can pull fresh air from outside my room.

Without a dehumidifier built in all the water is vented into my attic. I empty a gallon of water a day from my dehumidifier. That's how much water would be going into my attic with just an A/C unit.

I need to find an A/C, dehumidifier combo with a separate input.

stink,

what you think of the idea of drilling a few tiny holes where a mister would go?

cause my fing misters sucky..

no money to order nutes,

i need nutes,cups might work for pots,pc meter(using cheap one now)
hmm misters?, need to find a friend to order a few things, i put my flowers back into cloner, gonna see how they do.

timer, speakin of that

i had my flowers running 24/7 no air time, thats probly another reason why they are taking so long.

If you can't afford .90 cents for the correct mister then you can't afford to run my system.

The nutes alone will set you back over a $100. A timer is close to $100.

You are way better off doing soil right than my system wrong. There is nothing wrong with soil if you are broke.

Save up your money and when you can afford to do it right you will be glad you waited.

I m flowering in a odd location that gets a little colder than usual. low is 39f I just added a space heater to try and keep up the temps. I also changed the timer so the lights are on at night when its coldest. My question is how low of temps with the aero/ntf system can I have during the lights off stage. it gets about 70f of a high with them on. Now that I added the space heater Im sure it will go up a little better. thanks all
peace

Guess Im gona have to crank that space heater up. That sucks. If it gets to lets say 55f during the lights off will it kill them or just slow there growth and nuits uptake?
Im out of room cause all these darn clones all live and I dont have room for them yet. this system just works too good :o thanks

I've looked bro they don't exist,
these are a combo AC/Dehumidifier! but the dehumidifier or heater are usless
its impossible to run two functions simultaneously out of one device,
I'm running a separately each physically by itself - AC, Heaters, Humidifier, De-Humidifier, Fans
the environmental controllers can only turn the device on and off
they don't actually able to control speed, temp etc...
you will need a controller that taps into the AC board itself
and is smart enough to switch between the on board functionality
its pretty much impossible to build a universal unit that will function with every board and its capability's
