All Cree Led Plus WaterFarm With Attached Screen Grow(The Dawgie Dawg Style)

^^We'll see about that Dawg.

I am putting together a modified drip, using Hydro Galaxy Drip Rings (they have multiple holes - broader coverage- + long tripod legs), which will allow raising up high over the medium + ~ 300 gph pump + 1/2" tubing + adjustable valves for each grow pot (in my case 4 liter APs). All this to increase splash over surface to minimize channeling, thus getting much greater nutrient coverage to total root system.

Keep an eye on my BS thread to follow, or I may do a new thread. Video is posted on them now.

I understand the splash to cover more surface, but that's just it THE SPLASH how do you confine it or do you not need to? I'll look forward to your posts-Thanks for your good work

great keeping up with the numbers, those have to be some of the broadest leaves I've :roll: seen. I'm anxious to be set up, anyway what's going on with the PVC in your pics? I see some 90's put together there on the floor are you plumbing with it? I see using it for support too. I'm thinking of hanging my light pulleys from PVC and move air with the same pipe, with slots or holes. you could add other gas by injecting it in the supply side... I sure like your clean operation for sure! Thanks It's time :bigjoint:

Hey, just a thought while I'm agonizing on what system to start with for Nutrient delivery I am gazing at brother Dawg's pictures of his post with the Ladies panties down exposing her roots. What I'm wondering if in fact a growing medium of some sort???? gives the roots something to cling to, besides each other. Without any growing medium, do they strangle each other at all? I know they get tangled, I can see that. I'm starting to think about the medium I'd like my Ladie's to thrive in????? I'd like to main-line the root system as well, maybe that's what the clay balls do? are they best? I gotta have a bowl! Blueberry too! not the Yum Yum though! I've asked around

Great Googly Moogly... I can't believe this thread didn't show up on my radar until now...
But now I'm caught up ;)

BTW Dawg, I don't know if you're into Zappa Boots, but I've been listening to the Malmo 78 concert on loop for about 3 weeks now, and it is amazing. I highly recommend it, if for nothing else other than "Village of the Sun" with Denny Walley laying down some sweet slide for Uncle Frank to solo over.

Good Morning Sis.Ha Ha Ha I Fooled You I Didnt Top These Biotches.The Node Spacing Was So Tight 1/4 Inch That I Decided Not To.I Belive The 20/4 Light Schedule Is Keeping Them So Short And Bushy.

I'm on 18:6, so I guess we'll see. There are a lot of differences, but I'm hoping to have some tight nodes as well. Maybe I'll mainline one and LST/scrog the other one.

Edit: You said the light stays at 18"?? (mine is 18" from light to top of the plant)

Where the hell have I been for this thread? You make me want to try DWC again, but my landlords have outlawed it. Humidity reasons.. the housing in my area is all low-humidity material. Hydro grows cause a lot of permanent damage to houses around here. But you sure make it look easy. 67% tops? Do you run a dehumidifier?

Ok Brothers Lets Hear Your Ideas On Topping.
Not topping.. Mainlining ;)
