8x1000 watts CO2 Hydro grow Jacks Back

Is there any difference in the plants grown under the magnums or the ss2's? Quality of the buds look the same? You think the yield would be more if you were running all magnum reflectors?
Someone on here had a similar setup and his plants under the magnums grew taller then under the ss2's. I'm not sure if it was you.

..I have learned alot in the last month I am feeding 3 times a day and The plants are finally taking off I completly got rid of all my clones and started over the ones in the coco cups went into smart pots with coco and the rockwool's went in rockwool gonna give both a shot and see what the out come is ..Tabel furthest to the left MASTER X BUBBA KUSH,Tabel furthest to the right QUERKEL,Tabel closest to the left SFV KUSH,And to the right of that Bubba kush X Grand daddy purps....And a shot of my new moms Fire OG ,Raskal Og....
Ditched the water cooled co2 generator ..

It Would not stay lit,And I would need to run it two ways to keep water temps down run to waist hooked up to city water or hook it up off a pool or a very large rez...
Its basicly like adding another 1000 watt lamp in the heat depart ment .When the lights come on it runs for about 5 minutes then after that every 30 minutes it comes on for 30 seconds..
Thanks...

So you don't utilize a sensor it's on a cycle timer correct?

No its on a sentinel controller set at 1500 ppm when it drops below it fires up the co2 ..

im surprised you just didnt do a manifold and tie your hydrogen co2 gen into that.....
all and all, are you happy with the chill king?
how was the shipping? who you buy it through? i guess i should PM you

I believe Riznob's already had some issues with his new setup.https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/230302-10-000-watt-grow.html
This is one of three grow threads I've read where the water cooled CO2 generator had issues.
looking awesome man.
OldFrog had some trellis action going like that... i think he ends up using 3 trellis levels in all - stacked one on top of the other.
don't give up on the hydro bro ... once it clicks you'll shite bricks over how easy it is. you walk into the room, make sure all your lamps are still lit, look at the display showing ur pH and ur ppm and adjust those if needed. that's it. done deal.
biggest thing for me was learning that you have to almost completely drain the rez every 2-3 weeks or you can get a deficiency even though ur ppm's and pH are alright, but running drain-to-waiste as you are, that's one thing you'll never have to worry about.

Yep im not going to give up yet..This is the first week I have not had any issue's with the hydro I finally feel like I worked every thing out...I did notice that I was using way more co2 then normal so I took my Sentinal controler out side to calibrate and when I turned it on it read 9 ppm should of read 350 to 380 so I hit calibrate waited for it to do its thing stuck it back in ther room and what do you know it read 2000 ppm..looking awesome man.

It was way off the plants seem much happier at 1200 ppm I will bump it up to 1500 ppm next week and keep it that way until week 6 where when I star bring it back down... JACK...
