could it make sense to repurpose a aluminium ladder?? for the heatsinking i wouldnt worry using steel, iron have still 80 W/(m*k) about a third of aluminium, but the weight is really ugly to my view. @TintEastwood havent you used some foamboard? was it a permanent install and still doing...

yes, the nanimg convention is confusing. theyre all CC drivers up to a certain point and when you have the option to push the voltage pedal (A or some AB) you can make it a CV driver when you push it to max basically. (leaving the cc region in the datasheet this way).

supply chains are fucked up worldwide. for 2020 aluminium prices seems to be quite stable here, 30cm are below 1.5€, the cut is free. it sounds like its time to recycle something, looks like youre handy with metal works so i guess you have lots of options. is there a yunk yard around? for a...

should also smell way less., heat is what makes the terpentenes volatile. am for sure mixing up slownlow with the freeze drying and am myself basically more after the methods themself then which is smelling less or more, the OPs nose have to decide in the end and cold will help to some degree...

hm, if somthing is frozen it hardly smells or should be waay less at least, but yeah need to be tried, if its a self defrosting one, one can prob put some charcoal filter matt on the air outlet, theyre handy to have anyway. one guy in the netherlands filled the cellar floor with these matts...

you need to exchange the air frequently or use a auto defrost fridge, which have a small dehumidifer build in, that should be a quite safe bet. also mold dont really grow at freezing cold temparatures, there is a reason humans store food in it. great someone posted the thread, its all there.

some people tried it and swear on fridge drying. important is that its a auto defrosting fridge, to keep the RH low. maybe ask google, you prob find some threads.

soil plant is doing very good so far. lets see how long this continues. not blasting them now, but increasing the light intensity. cocos plants are ok, but could have done better nutrient wise. runoff was over 2 for some time and especially number 2 didnt took it well. they produce, should...

RO = Reverse Osmosis (filter) excuse the confusion, i may should have added the word filter too.

thats good if the roots are still good. i encountered theyre very sensitive at this stage and tend to get infected easily. good idea to stop the top watering as theyre prob in some root plugs which shouldnt stay too moist atm as theyre not drinking much anyway. sounds like you cant do more for...

water softeners can be tricky, some if not most are cation exchange based. https://www.epa.gov/watersense/cation-exchange-water-softeners the sodium they ad to your water can cause problems.

that light can be powerfull. i bet the roots arent looking well either? hoping there isnt root rot going on allready, would prob need some treatment then. i would stay low with the light intensity till she really perked up and showing healthy roots. you wont need high ppm also, stay on the low...

what is your light? would prob go back to 30% or even lower seeing this.

finally one tries the thrives, also like that you went for the 5000K to have the "sun" spectrum. curious to see how they will bud under this spectrum, so far, myself ncluded, no one had the balls for it :D. looking healthy, any way to measure PPFD? as its simply a huge factor too if not even the...

soil plant is now on 12/12 since a day. quite pleased so far, very little work, very healthy plants. if this continues i ask myself why all the work with cocos when it can be done way easier. really curious, if this auto pliot grow going to give nice buds, results are open. while looking dam...

reverse osmosis

no first hand experience, but it should oxydize your iron out of the water, maybe look that up. dutch tomato grower use UVC to sterilize the nutrient solution, same effect, oxydizer. they tend to measure the iron constantly and ad by demnad as the oxydizer strip the iron out of the water. there...

so far so good, if that works out well i may switch to soil and pellets, would have never thought. .... while far too early to say.

do like to run 2 tents also the same time, just hope it dont get too rainy as 2 tents in flower can be a humidity problem, hope its getting cold when i harvest as then i have dry air from the outside. not sure, the grow before the last was another pheno i think. its at least the very same...

quite impressed how easy the soil grow went so far, really no work to do, just water, which is automated anyway. looking nice and healthy, last day veg, 12/12 from 27. hard to say but would guess she runs on the organic fertilizer pellets now. so far grewn under 70W, now went to 110W , 3000k.
