Hey we have almost the exact same setup! Same tent and same system w/ 1000w hps. Mine is on a light rail though to act more like the sun + Co2. I just need some clones to get started up again. My only advise is next time turn your system around so the end of the poles are facing the front of the tent, it is easier to move the poles around and get into the middle of the crop to trim up. Looking great though! Keep it up and i'll be following. What is your rez temp now with the chiller? I have a 1/10 chiller that I haven't set up yet but I hope it brings the rez temps down low. Plus I added a portable a/c unit INTO the tent to keep temps perfect, I would suggest that over those icebox's.

thanks for stoppin by!
good idea on flippin the system around. I had it like that originally but then flipped to make res changes easier. I also have a portable a/c, i dont use it in there tho. the temps arent too high. the 1/0 should be fine, i have a friend that uses a 1/10 on her 60 site, and it worked fine.
glad you finally made it buddy!now i found it.
this thread is due for some pic updates..as soon as i find my camera, i'll snap a few of them for ya.

+rep for a pretty Aero setup, do you have a mother room to show also? Do you veg in the aero before flowering? What height are you switching to 12/12? What height are you expecting them to finish at? What height are they now?
Just a few quick questions, if you have already answered some just tell me to sod off.

thanks buddy! I vegged them a lil too long I think(10days) they are about 27'' tall. I do have a half-ass mother room. when i get ready to blow a strain up i'll pull 4 clones from the strain i want, let them get big, and pull 40 clones..they were about 10'' when i switched to 12/12, i hope they dont grow anymore taller!!! runnin out of space.

i have about 2' left. i should be alright..
i was actually thinking 2 600W HPS would be better coverage. the buds on the outer areas of the aeroflo are smaller, and not as full as the buds directly under. Im thinkng 2 600's you'll get better area coverage and have a more full garden. just a thought tho. im not goin out and buyin any new equipment anytime soon!

That is exactly what I want to do eventually, two 600w in the tent ... Best light dispersion and also most efficient bang for your buck. I wish I could trade out Dub's old magnetic PL 630w ballast for a couple of new electronic 600w ballasts. If I go back to aero that will be the plan so the height of the plants is controlled and buds are more dense on the outside edges to reduce the need to raise the plants to get them more in the light's sweet spot.
The things we didn't like about our system is that you have to reach so far to work on anything right under the light and if you wanted to move plants around to try and rotate them the roots are a pain when they tangle. Do you have this problem as well?

hey smokey great grow! I also use an aeroflo and was wondering if you have had any problems with the spray line getting clogged from certain nutrients. I was also wondering how many ml per gallon of the bud candy do you put in your rez? last time I used carboload my spray lines clogged up, mabey I used too much..
