same rez experiment for...

[Alaric]

both the veg and flower plants.

yikes-----I better put my flame proof suit on first!!!!!!!

22'x22'x9' ceiling garage split for:

11'x22' veg/clone/work side.

11'x22' flower room side.

15k but ac window unit on each room

8" inline ozone generator in exhaust line

exhaust through roof

3/4 hp high head pressure pump

100 gallon rez setup

100 gallon ro rez

mediumless aero,

3k hps flower on mover, 2k hps veg on mover, t5 early veg

AN nutes (gh knockoff) ----7/14 micro/bloom, 5ml/gal cal mag

reasons for this:

1) one rez, pump,chiller, chiller pump.

2)veg plants low in N for cuttings

results-----5.5 lbs dbw.

Sick setup

 

[panhead]

Your rig looks much like mine . Main difference is mine is set up as a flood n drain instead of true aero , i love the lack of medium .

Whats the average temp of your root zone ? I have a geothermal rez that stays around 60 degrees & leaves my root zone between 62 & 67 degrees with the 67 being the hottest month of the year .

If you own your property look into making a geothermal rez, there are 2 ways going about it , one is to bury the rez below ground leaving the top few inches above ground , the other is to use the earth az the chiller , bury a 100lft coil of copper tubing 6 ft underground & backfill with sand , then circulate the rez thru the coil 6ft down , it takes a bit of work but the yearly savings from no chillers is huge .

"Your rig looks much like mine"

I guess "sick minds" think alike.

"Main difference is mine is set up as a flood n drain instead of true aero"

I don't consider my rig "true aero"-------more like aero / shallow water culture.

I have a love/hate relationship with these 6"x10' schedule 40 pvc tubes.

Love because: available locally, relatively cheap, easily drilled and tapped for supply and drain fittings.

Hate because: circular instead of rectangular, would like 18" deep and 6" wide (provided enough ceiling height)

"Whats the average temp of your root zone ?"

mid 70s hottest days here in central fl without adverse effects. (economic reasons.)

"look into making a geothermal rez"

I've wondered how effective that technique is----thanks for the answer-----which of those methods do you prefer? Seems like the coil method would be better?

Curious about your donor plants for cuttings------process design? How long from cutting into flowering does it take running SOG?
