4 inch pvc. Spaced 8 inches apart and the rows are 16 inches apart.HDS, like the set up, interesting!! how far away are the plants? is that 4 inch pvc? great idea...

I'm definitely going to spend time removing the crap secondary branches this time and just go for the colas!Looking Great HotDiggity! Topping should help keep the heights a little more consistent / less stretch to deal with. I think having more colas and trimming more of the small lowers should help with getting light to all the plants later when the jungle reappears. The plants all look very healthy and have good internode spacing. This is going to be your best run yet!
The reflectix that you see is temporary. In the next week I'll be setting it up a little more proper.Hey HDS-----looks good.
I agree with hayrolld about removing the lower stuff.
Good idea using that reflectix behind the tubes. Are you planning on a trellis to train the plants in toward the light a ways----you know the stems will grow vertically anyway until buds fatten up.
A~~~
Of course man...what are you thinking?The main reason I'm suggesting a trellis is for space----imagine if the plants were trained outward toward the light (starting now)----then let then grow straight up. I know a pretty cheap way to do that and not too much effort (if interested). What I have in mind would like a scorg grow except with multiple tiers of plants like you have.
I can't tell you how many times I've thought to myself----- "We'll see how it plays out I guess."

i agree with you, on what you stated, but it doesn't apply in a bare vert grow.Hey brimck325,
Not sure what you mean by that? Care to explain?

Very kind words...thank you.Holy fucking shit man! This journal should be inducted into the RIU Hall of Fame! Just read all 87 pages this last week a few pages at a time. Crazy cool seeing your evolution. Im organic soil 100% so hydro isn't my thing but I still learned a shitload and its cool. Hydro will never touch soil for quality but for quantity and efficiency, hydro is king. Although reading through this inspired me to try something I think. Idk if ittl work. Prolly not but would be badass if it did. I think imma try a single 3 gal dwc next run
Using ACT. Would have to change it every couple days but if it workex it would be true organic hydro and I would imagine the quality would be compareable to living soil organic with benifits of hydro. Plus every rez change would be good microbes to throw on garden outside. Yep...I think imma try it when I'm done with current run cuz tent is full. Thank you for all your valuable info. And to Sativied, mo, A~ and others who contributed. Great Shit man. Your officially inducted to RIU HOF!
Thanks! I really like it. If I can perfect the starting process, a lot of possibilities arise such as:Looks amazing! Like a NASA lab
How do you like the new configuration?
My opinion about droopy leaves (based on my observations):Chapter 4 Update
Day 38
Girls are looking great. Some of them are experiencing the droopy leaves and leaf curl under and I took some shots of them. I'd say maybe 20% of them are showing this. At this point my best guess is either too many nutes or perhaps it's just the nature of the beast with RDWC.
They are starting to drink and eat more. PPM's dropped from 590 to 510 over the last 36 hours. Seems that high 500's is about where they want to be. When I got up into the mid 600's is when I first saw the leaf curl.
The additional space they have been given really looks to be paying off. We'll see in the next few weeks.
