Bubbleponic 6 Planter

[MajoR_TokE]

I want to make 1 or 2 or 3 of these > SH Hydroponics > Dual Spectrum Bubbleponic 6 Planter Complete Kit < it looks like it would be easy enough.. I could get all the stuff at home depot for cheap too. What do yo think about this product?

hey major im useing about the same setup your looking at. it works really well. the bigest thing i can think of to warn you about is "I want to make 1 or 2 or 3 of these" its a pain to check the ppm's and pH of a bunch of tubs. i had a bunch of smaller tubs like the one in the first link you posted with 6 plants in each. but i upgraded to 50gallon tubs with 12 plants in each, and it cut my work way down. if there is anything i can do to help out let me know. good luck

I am planning on building a few of these, but have a question. If you go to their site and watch the vid, this system has both an air and water pump. The water pumps directly into the nets. My question, Do you run the water pump 24/7? As soon as I can get the answer to this, I'll start this project.

 

[th3bigbad]

ummm i dont know.... i just use air pumps with no drippers.

According to thier material the pump for the nutrient solution should be run 24 hrs a day.

I am about to start a grow this week with the bubbleponics 6 system. Does anyone have any tips about what I can do to help me with my grow. This is also going to be my first grow other than the Aero Garden I just started a this past weekend so any tips you guys have for that as well would be appriciated. Both setups will be growing White Widow and Northern Lights x Big Bud

The water pump runs 24/7. The air pump does also, they use a bubbler system from a fish tank type setup for that.

Hey th3bigbad how much are you getting in yeild of that system??? Im in the processes on buildin a bubbleponic system i got 1200watts Hps how many plants would you recommend under that?

I got a tip for you...cut the nutrients to 1/3 of the recommended dosage until they are 8-12 inches tall...I had to much nutrients in mine and the lower leaves dried up and died. I went to 1.3 strength and they are growing like...well weeds with no more problems. I also had a PH problem, PH would go up to 8.3 everyday and I would lower it to 5.6-5.8 and it would go right back up...now with lower nutrients it has been stable.
