quick question for the experts +rep, if i buy or make a 4x4 tent, could i easily fit 2x 14-site flower units inside of it with a 600w hps? and would 2 veg and a clone unit be able to fit in another 4x4 tent with just some t5's ? i am not currently in a grow but planning for a future one. thanks for any help!

edit: also has anyone attempted to put the res on the outside of a tent to keep temps down?

2 veg and one clone unit fit nicely inside the 4x4 tent, that's what I run.

The flower units will be too long.... you have the rails, plus the length of the tub and pump assembly that hang past the end of the plant rails another 2 feet.

However, you might get creative and make your own design that would fit ....

I can fit 8 flowering systems in a 10 x 12 room and a bit of room to walk between
run 4-600 hps with co2 and u could yield a pound a week

Oh the other question I had:

Am I correct in understanding that there is never any growing medium required? Just place the cone in the cloner and let em grow? pull up the cups and transfer them into the vegger...and then into the flower unit?

Yes, there is no grow medium required.
Just a net cup and neoprene insert.
Good luck :peace:

All you need is a cheap PPM meter. 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. .

Well you have to calibrate your meters each time before you use them right? I'm on my second grow, and I got really tired of having to buy expensive calibration solutions and the hassle of calibrating everyday...are there meters out there that are easier to work with?

Hey Stink, I was wondering if you could give us a shot of exactly what the misters look like inside of your fence posts. I'm wondering how many misters you have per plant, and where they are positioned. Do they ever get clogged up by the plant's roots? Also, where do you get your misters- are they 180 or 360? Thanks for all the info by the way, this system is badass.

I don't remember anyone checking meters each time...

I use Hanna GroCheck on my cloner & veg units. They continuously monitor my units. I like being able to just go in the room and check the meters quickly. I calibrate monthly. Grocheck is one of the best meters I have used.

In my flower unit I have one of the tri meters because the Grocheck only goes up to 2000PPM... I'm running my flower units about 2500 PPM currently.

You can find the Grocheck for $118 Here

Hope this helps you. :peace:

He uses... We use... LOL EZ Cloner misters... Red, they spray 360.

The spacing of the misters are laid out on the plans which can be found either on page 75 here. OR on the New Stinkbuddies.com

Hey I appreciate the info Aero. The other question I had was, is there any problem with running a pump cycle of 15 min on/15 min off, if I can keep my reservoir cool? I'm having a hard time getting myself to dish out 90 bucks just for a pump timer so that I can set my timer to 1 on/5 off. Also, with the shorter pump cycles, how much quicker will your pump fail you? I'm using a 1000GPH Active Aqua for my set up, and it seems to be pretty reliable, but at 80 bucks a pop I'd like to get as much use out of it as possible. Thanks again for your help.

I recently purchased these amazing hydroponic grow boxes from the internet and i am harvesting every single 2 months and im growing 2 plants in my closet. I really suggest you guys try these grow boxes out. At first i thought they were a lil expensive but there much better and cheaper than building grow boxes your self.

What size rez are you using?

If you have set up a 18 gal Stink system... 1000GPH is way overkill for a single rez... Your rez will probably heat up too much at 15 min on... I run 550GPH in my flower unit... I keep the timer on to 1-4 min. no heat problems.

Some Stink Bro's are using the 15 min timer in the beginning, but I think they are running a smaller pump size. rez temps are very important...

One thing I like about the CAP ART-DNE is the available button for testing the unit... The 1-4 timer is OK too, you just have to unplug it to make it recycle in an instant.

Hope this helps!
