Can anyone answer the simple question of where's the door lol Its the one thing I can't figure out. My next setup is gonna be built like this and I just for he life of me can't figure it out lol

You have to go over or under. With my setup I went over. When the babies get big enough, there is a very good chance that you will break some while working on them or getting in or out.

Rofl lol only draw back to it the. Huh? Lol but then again I suppose they don't need much care lol til u need to chop anyways

Heath told us on one of the previous pages that he climbs <UNDER> where
the pipes come down

Awesome setup and the right way 2 go. Love the damn also.

Sorry for being late on this one, but I had to salute Heath. This is the most efficient and creative grow I've seen on RIU. Amazing example.

I do not understand how this system of dams prevents the exchange of nutrients


How to empty the water in the new system

Excellent design! I've run constant circulation set ups before and really enjoyed them, mine were dwc but worked very well indeed.

Just turn the dam completely & drain the system after you switched off the pump.
It's that simple

Awesome grow Heath + rep

i think this setup is amazing, good on ya heath, and nice buds

just made three of these, he hit 46 o'z im hoping for

40+ x 3

thinik its possible?


how long did he veg them for?

i want to just 12/12 from clone

This is a testament to how impressive Heath's inventions are, after two years the thread is still alive and inspiring people!

gbis5911, I think Heath said he vegged for 2 weeks prior to 12/12 for the first run (which he did in the flooded vert), and then fed the vert with rooted clones 12/12. See what works for you, but you won't want them getting too big so veg probably isn't necessary. Good luck and please post up a link to your grow, would love to see it

i want to try something very similar to this

thanks much i will do!

so can i put the babys under a t5 horizontal for 2 weeks rooting then plant in vertical?

i heard you wanna root verticaly which doesnt make sense

so building one of these next

why do they have to root vertically?

Not really sure what you mean by 'root vertically'? Clones just need to be rooted.

i have been reading up on hydro and vertical growing and i see you said you replace the water every 2 weeks how much nutrients do you put in your set up if i wanted to do the samething why nutrients would i use. Im sorry im sure this is a stupid question but im new and i want to make sure i do it right the time i try hydro.

p.s. i have done soil indoor, so i have a some what understanding of growing

I believe Heath only used 1.0ec which is about 500ppm throughout the grow.. Haven't read his grows in a while so I may be wrong, somebody correct me if I am..
BR hates nutes so I'm sure that's y he went so low with them but if your gonna run another strain then u may need to go a bit higher..

he runs 1.0 ec all the way and i believe that is with every stain.
