did you paint it because of the gray caulk?

nice thread dub, thanks for helping.
what kind of filters did you use? they look like the type you use for a refridgerator. can you tell me more on how you made this? thanksI'm not sure if this should have it's own thread but here is my Cheap Portable 50gpd RO System that fills my external reservoir for the flowering chamber. More pictures will come up later. This thing was cheap BTW... Hope my readers like it.
Drop a comment, they are always welcome!
Sometimes it feels more like I'm leaving notes for myself here more than anything... ha ha ha!

Yes, I didn't like the appearance. I know leaving it white might have reflected more but this is more durable and prevents more leaks.
Note to self (and anyone else doing this):
Use flex tube between chambers. Flex tubing keeps the leaks down.
.
so instead of using 1/2 pvc you say use flex tubing between fence posting? the mister setup part? or you mean in the middle ?
Why not just a garden hose connector? They usually are sold where you buy RO filters. If not, try an aquarium fish retailer.This is the tap, look in a local hardware store.

Cool.That works too... I just grabbed the first thing I saw.![]()
the black paint on the root enclosures is going to absorb light and raise the temp. it was/would be better off a lighter color.
what was the reasoning behind the black?
and is that a humidifier or a dehumidifier? are you humidifying because the roots are immature?
surely, that will come out when the plants are bigger, yea?
what was the probs that the fox farm gave you? clog? at the nozzles?
all the building and picture taking looks like fun,
