    Questions About Aero GPH?

    I've never seen those sprayers before so i'm not sure how they work. I use these: http://danthegrowman.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=spray&product_id=2197 or ones like this in most of my aero systems. It seems like a lot of people on this site are doing high pressure...

    Questions About Aero GPH?

    I made a lot of mistakes along the way building systems, but I always tried to learn from them. are the emitters spray heads or what are they? 1-2 gph is more of a trickle than a spray.

    Questions About Aero GPH?

    No problem sir. So if your pump has a flow-rate of 675gph, and you have 8 emitters, 675 / 8 = 84.4 gph per emitter. Most spray emiters are going to be closer to 11-25gph. Try to shoot for closer to 25 gallons of pump flow per emitter. Think of back pressure like putting your thumb over the end...

    Questions About Aero GPH?

    Most pumps don't really generate much pressure so there's probably no need to worry as long as you're glueing your joints. The thing to worry about is putting too much back-pressure on the pump so it doesn't run with any pressure at all.

    Lighting Orientation

    Nice looking plants sir. If you're looking for MH bulbs check out the HiLUX Gro. They're a bit pricy but very nice. My last run I did Aero, Drip and DWC all in the same room. It was a pain in the ass so I'm simplifying this next run. 2 drip tables this time with rockwool mini cubes. I'm...

    Lighting Orientation

    The trays will move a litte bit for when i need to move around, but i'm doing SOG with a drip system and drip rings so moving them around would be pretty difficult and impossible after the first week or two. I agree, i'm a fan of mixed spectrum but I've never tried it. I do use hortilux eye...

    Lighting Orientation

    I did 4x600w in my last few runs but I've seen a number of people run 4x1000w lights in the same space. This would still be 400w less than running 4 1kws but better light distribution. I've got about a 1 foot parameter around where the trays will go and I fully expect the plants to grow out of...

    Lighting Orientation

    Hey guys, I'm building a new room and am not exactly sure how I want to hang my lights. I'll be growing SOG in 2 4x8 trays under 6x600w lights, and I'm not sure how I want to orient the lights. The room is sealed with a 24,000 btu split AC so I don't really need to air cool the lights. I was...

    problems with these plants?

    Looks like it could be spider mites to me too. They usually live underneath the leaves, and you can see them. They eat little holes in the leaves that look like white spots. If you can wipe the white spots off then it's not mites. If you decide that it's mites then get a spray. Theres a lot...

    Hello from Central California

    Hey Everyone, After lurking forums for the past few years since I've been growing I figured it's about time I actually joined one and become part of the online community. I've been growing for a little over 2 years, and just recently got hooked up with a delivery service and got my SB420...
