I tried searching in this thread for answers to my questions but couldn't find any. I'm hoping maybe someone can help me. So I am assembling one of these Stinkbud aeroponics systems and I noticed he has a hose inside of his 1/2" PVC pipe that connects to the water pump. Is that a 1/2" hose inside of a 1/2" pipe? I tried putting the pipe directly over the 1/2" nozzle on the pump but there's too much space so I'm thinking there's not going to be enough water pressure. Can someone tell me how to attach the pvc pipe to the pump? Thanks again for all your help dudes & dudettes!

My stinkbud system is working great, but I have one issue.

The roots from the net pot closest to the reseviour has roots so long that they are hanging down out the end and into my reservior. I know roots do not like light and they are getting plenty. What do I do? Do I cut the roots? Do I push them back up into the post where the water comes out?

Any ideas?

I am sure others that have built this system have had the same problem.

Thanks RIU!

The StinkBud recipe calls for Pure Blend Pro lineup. This PDF has the schedule for CNS17 as per the manufacturer (last table).

A good rule is to start at 1/2 strength the manufacturer recommended schedule and step up from there a bit at a time.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot I figured I could use this in place but what the Cal-Mag?? Does anyone use CNS with Cal Mag?? Im sure it wouldnt hurt as for most of botainicares line up calls for cal-mag except for the CNS table like you per manufacturer.

I'm almost finished building this hydro/aero setup. Is it possible to clone and veg in the same area, say 25 sq. ft? Also, Could I use 2 400w MH on an 18/6 light cycle? I would really appreciate some help with this one.:wall:
