you did. however he dont sound like hes too interested in flood tables. sorry i thought you meant a grounded system. youll have to learns me how to speak better

complicated to most....

Lol good idea. . I thought about getting those water catchers that the lines drip onto but I would need to many idk if it's worth it or if I should go right into the pots

I'm very interested ! Thanks for the fast reply also

Elevating the buckets will not result in a properly functioning system. If you want to avoid usong a controller bucket you will need a flood table high enough to place a resovoir underneath it to allow gravity to drain the table for you. Then a pump and overflow valve will do the rest

There are ways to make your own bucket by purchasing around 100 dollars in materials. Ive made around 8 total with no issues. If you are interested please let me know and i can send full instructions

I use 3/4 between the buckets and i have 1/2 inch hard pipe going to and from the drum to fill the main bucket. It fills in about 4 or 5 minutes sits for 15 total and theb drains. 6 times or every 4 hours

I printed a few copies i almost memorised it

I hope you have good luck forever. I build my own bucket from ogres tutorial and its goin on 4 years stong and ive build over 8 others that are all goin strong still. Only one timer failed right out of the box and ive had 2 floats go bad out of all the systems.

All of your float wires should go into relays. Your digital timer should work as long as it has 5 terminals on it since its a double throw. The analog timers work great just amazon them for around 45 bucks and snag a project box or something to make your own. Ogres diy is easy to follow

Sounds more the the timer itself if you redid the relays. They use single pole double throw timers and when it clicks over the mechanical part inside isnt moving. Some have a small flathead screw adjuster you can turn. Im not too sure about the cap one tho send a picture of the bucket. Floats...

Basically 2700k 3000k and 3500k are best during flowering giving more red light. Anything above 3500k would be better for veg. If your stuck using one light then simply buy a 3000k or 3500k as mentioned before. If it isnt enough light just get another one or one similar to it. It will say it in...

It might be wise to wait a day or two and check out hlgs websight. There Lm301b chip is comming out this weekend and they might have a better light just like that one. The new diodes should be around 6 - 10% more efficient.

That light is much more modern tech. I think youll be satisfied. It shows a fairly low ppfd at 18" for flowering so you may wanna trellis or try to scrog it a bit and drop to 16" for flower. Also i would mention the 3500k light would probably be a better all around light if you wanna flower with...

16A braker with 240v? How interesting. Most common is 15A or 20A breakers With120v. Anything 30 or more amps is usually 240v.

The hlg boards or china boards?

Id buy em to try em just for shits n giggles but for 130 i can get 2 legit 288 qb boards. For 130 spent on chinese boards i would only get one more light and thats probably going to burn up or break. As well theres always the old diode issue since they like to send old diodes instead of current...

Yup you can wire the ac side in parallel as long as the total sum of your drivers dont exceed the breaker in the panel.

40amps? I wouldnt suggest pulling over 20 amps from one plug since thats kind of standard all over.
