Yep except every ~3 runs I will up end my planters into a 55 gallon drum and go back into planter with it so it doesnt compact over time. Plant your cover crop when flower is in final stages, pull your herb up by roots when done, mulch under cover and replant new girlsLooking real nice Alpha, real nice!! That mendo is something else, would love to get my hands on some of that
@Vnsmkr when you say no till, does that mean you pull the plant out and put another one steaight into the same pot? I'd like to go no till now that I'm using organics...

Ahhhh cover crop, I have to get something in soon in that case, I've got about 4 weeks to go with my girls. Any suggestions for what to go with? Some kind of clover? Cheers buddy

Any clover is good. I have been using pumpkin shoots lately as they are very fast to grow and edible as well.Ahhhh cover crop, I have to get something in soon in that case, I've got about 4 weeks to go with my girls. Any suggestions for what to go with? Some kind of clover? Cheers buddy

I am just now setting up Indoor Lights in the garage,my wife wants her #3 bedroom back,so I am moving to the man cave.
Just going to use what I have in stock for lighting...1000w HPS,600w HPS...400w HPs and 2-4x4 trays,1 5x5 tray,3 resevors
Experiment..
Under the 1000w I will flower 4 plants/net/7 gallon grow bag/first 3" chunky perlite/to the top with hydroton
Under the 600w...16 1 gallon nursery pots/hydroton/net
Not sure what to use under the 400w?
The next wall I want to use the buckets you use
What is that set up made of?

Could you do a 2 plant scrog under the 400w? I find the less plants the better under a 400w. Or keep it for mums

Alpha,
For veg do you reccomend using the small rockwool cubes on a flood table or popping them right into the 2gals ebb buckets to veg? Seems like you could fit more on a flood table with the cubes and then pop them right into the buckets with hydroton for flower.

Jam a divider down the middle of that 18 gallon tote so you have 2x 9 gallon sides and should be perfect

@AlphaPhase hey ive benn running my table for about a week in a half now the clones look good but when i went to swap the rezs the ph seemed to shoot up in the high 6 range from 5.9 when i started the rez i havent seen any problems plant wise but was just wondering if you kept and eye out for shit like that with the hydroguard and pond zyme being in rez i think its just the bacteria doing it but havent seen a problem with plants yet i remember you saying you dont ph so i havent did anything about it but change the rez after every 4 or 5 day to make sure it doesnt get too high

I use the active aqua grow flow ebb system, it's already pre-made and ready to rock

I would do drip system for rockwool, that's what I'm coming to conclusion with, they do OK with flood and drain but much much better with drip systems. You can put the rock wool on hydroton in the ebb buckets though and that would work killer as well
