Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

I'm going back to a 2 post system. I find that the water pressure in the center is lower than the 2 sides, requiring a bigger pump.

Hey Donk...hope all is going well with your grow. You still going to have to pull it soon? Hope not.

I was wondering if you can still going to put up some more pics and the measurements? Also, would love to see the changes you can make to have a smaller footprint for the unit. Thanks!:peace:

I have not shut down yet lol not gonna till they get on my case. Ended up being busy so only got some of the new one build but here is a pic of how to shave 4 inches off. I am gonna throw another union between the T and the gulley after everthing is ready. I am gonna make new one with 4 foot rails cause I am probable gonna move so I will be ready.

As you can see on the current unit its a few inches over 4 feet cause of the pump in the res. So with my new lil mod the res will sit completing underneath. What I like about my mods is you have full access to res and the ability to break it down easy.

Well here is my 18 unit. I think some of the girls where too tall. I am still learning them and the last pic is there mom's ( cindy99 from seed) in coco. In a few weeks I will have my one or 2 keepers and it will be able to have more uniform growth.

anyone run Super Silver Haze strain with over 4000ppm soup?
i accidentally been running mine for over a week now with almost 4k ppm
the girls seem to be growing like crazy,
or maybe i am reading them wrong
and they aren't doing so well,
anyway i dropped them back to 2000ppm today
but since they didn't seem to get any nute burn, i was wondering why





:joint::peace:
 
I grew SSH in stinkybuds system. She burned at anything over 1,500 ppm's. I didn't use co2, but still., very sensitive to ppm's.

When she climbed over 2k, she burned, burned badly at that. Effected yield and taste, don't run her high. Trust me!

Hmmm - I wonder if that meter is calibrated? 2000 for SSH is generally considered very high! 4000 makes me really wonder???
 
Nice setup and mod's, Donk. Thanks for the pic's and update us when you have it all the way you want it.

Yeah...I remember some years ago when I was growing SSH...it is a bit twitchy about how high you can go with nutes. 4000 pretty much seems impossible...check you meter?:peace:

do any of you guys find you need to run a water chiller in you stink systems or does it do fine without?

A few factors - a larger reservoir keeps the water cooler, ambient temps, location, etc.
I personally do need a water chiller. I have had to pretty much stop my grow because of reservoir temps getting too high.
You can fill 2 liter bottles of water and freeze them and pop these in as a temporary solution.
Another alternative to a high priced chiller is to mod a window AC unit. (I'm presently researching this solution)

Wow! I love it! Super clean and professional. By far one of the nicest mods I've seen.

We should call it Super StinkBud or SS....
