Aeroponic Space Shuttle

Another flush day.
100_2283.jpg


I am having some issues
and I have added some supplements.

I am not having these issues with the hempy buckets
using just the sensigrow alone,
but something is not right in the shuttle,
so I am going to try something different.

Here is todays formula
for the 20gl rez
100ml A&B sensigrow = [email protected]
40ml Grandma Engy's F1 = [email protected]
90ml CalMag+ [email protected]
1ml Barricade = 560 @ 5.7

Hey earl, looks like i've had the same issue you're having with one of my seedlings. What do you attribute your problem to? I thought it might be a DEF. so I upped the nutes and started cal mag and so far so good, but I have this nagging feeling like i'm missing something.. currently I have GH nutes, but many growers have been going to the sensi grow and bloom. Do you find them to be superior? and do they really maintain ph levels? and aslo, do they require all the additives, or which ones would you recommend?
Thanx ahead of time and sorry for all the questions, i'm about to order new Nutes and the Sensi grow stuff gets great reviews but it's mighty pricey!!! Thanx again and Great Grow!
 
I am pretty happy with the sensi grow and bloom.
I think that I am having some Fe deficiency
due to the new mag drive impeller I just replaced.
I'm gonna run the cal mag+ and see if that cures my problem.
I am using the exact same formula in my hempy buckets
and they are not having this problem.
So I am pretty sure it is Fe deficit.
 
Hmm.. I'm a newb so I never thought of iron. You know how everybody only ever talks about the usual, ph, temps, cal def./mag def. etc.. I personally blame all my problems on "underpants knomes"

So what you are really saying, is that you have a deficiency in your underwear?! Have you tried Viagra or Extenz?!;-):lol::lol::bigjoint:

The Purple Cindy beans from HGS
which I received back in Nov 2008

Starting out in the window for about a week.

6 weeks from seed to this hempy bucket mother.

Cuts in the 4 inch tube until they root,
then I will move them into the space shuttle.

Oh... Thats cool... Thanks for the shot of the chillers guts man. Been a pleasure reading through your thread :-)

T.M.H.
 
Glad you took a look Mr Hatter.

I'm watching your thread also.

Are you gonna post pictures of your machinery ?

As you may know
I am not a fan of TAG

I tried it out a couple of years ago
and decided the was no advantage over LPA,
And.... My TAG plants couldn't get enough water during flower, they wilted to death.
I gave up after a couple of tries, wasted months, and mucho dinero.
Trying to LPA spray the tiny TAG roots just made the fuzz go away,
so, there was no point in growing the fuzzy roots in the first place.

I like the roots I grow with LPA.
They are very strong and will support the needs of a large plant.

As for the chiller ...I love it.

But my $70 hillbilly chiller works really well
and I will switch out the window fan to a window A/C in the summer
which adds just another $100.
Grand total $170

My store bought chiller was $300
but once I got the $35 thermostat
the HB chiller worked just as well
and now I have two.
 
Looked through every single page! Nice plants, Nice setup, but - what a amateur looking grow room, surely if you did a lab style setup you would have better results. Sure, if it aint broke dont fix it, but dam your thing looks messy

Thermostat $35 from amazon.com

Window fan and 6" flex duct. $30 homedepot

The thermostat control keeps the air coming into the rez @ 66ºf
and that keeps the water temp the same as the air temp.

This summer I will replace the window fan with a window A/C
which will still be run by the thermostat control.
 
Here is the latest.
Flushed out the old nutes
Filled with 20 gl RO
I add
100ml Sensigrow A
100ml Sensigrow B
40ml F1
60ml CM+
4ml B-52
60ml Sensizyme
2ml Barricade
this gives me TDS of 600
and a pH of 5.8

yeah don't you hate that?

My most vigorous seedlings...... and my first thought is always "that's probably a male"

Unfortunately I am most usually right :/...... or should I say the notion or saying or phrase or concept is most usually right..... Looking pretty good there :D Love to watch that shuttle FLY!!! :D
 
If I don't figure what is going on with the nutes:

"Houston, we may have a problem"

The new growth is looking good
but the older leaves are getting damaged after a few days.

I've sent some pictures to AN
and they asked all the questions I would ask
Water,pH,temp,etc
I am wondering if my nutes are just old.

The nutes are working in the hempy bucket
so I can't figure out why they are not working in the shuttle,
and... It looks like I may be having the same issues in my dwc.
