This is my first grow using this specific system, for the last two years all prior grows were all coco and/or 6"x6" rockwool cubes. I decided to dump that entire system this past Oct, finish out what I had and purchase for all my rooms the CAP Ebb and Gro System.
This is the first room, it has 30 buckets, and it's the healthiest grow I've had this year. Meaning zero deficiency problems with the plants, in this room. When I used coco there was always something I couldn't get quite right.
Also I have two other rooms that I've installed ebb and grow systems, one room with 42 buckets, current strain God's Gift and another room with 24 buckets, two strains, Bio-Diesel and Purple Kush
This 30 bucket room has several different strains: Blue Dream, Bio-Diesel, Mr. Nice and Chernobyl.
Nutes: General Hydroponics, using the simple recirculating feeding chart right off of the first page of their website
The plants are the healthiest I've grown in the last six months. I've compared this chart to previous charts and they have changed their charts to closer to that lucas formula some people use.
In this 30 Bucket Room Air flow: NONE, that's right, nothing. Strange but true! I grow in a large warehouse, I built this room within the warehouse space and only used plastic for the ceiling section. Hot air from the lights flow out, daily temps with lights on are around 76 - 80 degrees and the winter nights bring 60 degrees to 50 degrees so it's actually been perfect. Basically just like the temps would be in the mountains.
In my other two rooms have drywall ceilings and do have air flow control where I keep the temps in the mid-70's.
Also airconditioners to cool the rooms down in the warmer months.
