Well beings that i can sleep iv been reading up on uc ( under current ) and im inpressed to say the least!
So much so that im thinking of retiring the ebb! And building a UC 16 site for my 10x14 room. The shear
Mass of growth and yield off those systems are crazy lol! And the truth is im bored of the ebb and want a
New chalenge.

go talk to kid tex at the bay. they have a whole UC section there. its good shit BUT everyone says its tricky to dial in and you do NOT want it to be your standalone for your first attempt.. have at least one ebb still going.. other than that these systems are straight fire! my next room will be UC fo SHO!
16? to much?! I know a dude here, that runs 3 plant with 3 600's and pulss 2.5-3lbs a harvest! hes a mmj patient here and runs 2 rooms with his alotted count of 12!! uc is dope

That's what the fuck I am talking about too. I have two rooms that size ready to go. I read secrets of the westcoast dudes and I want to scrog like that using UC. When are you starting?
Definetly keep the ebb going until that bitch is dialed in.

What's the difference between that an uc? I noticed that it said it used pressure to recirculate it or something like that, also allowed for more dissolved oxygen in the water. But IMO wouldn't you be able to just beef up the ebb an grow an it'd be the same concept? I'm just not sure how it operates yet

word. the water is everyones issue, your looking at a liter of air per gallon of water which could be a 100 liter air pump!! plus the appropriate rez temps are key.. I have been doing a shit ton of research on the UC and it is the future. but yeah its a lot trickier than it looks on the front, lots of A/C (when I said 3 plants and 3 600's i should have said 3 600's per plant..) Heath robinson does a UC grow too, google it BUT the tex guy know his shit, and that other place does have a good tight little UC community going..
i'm going to kick a uc room in about 12 weeks, just waiting for this ebb and flow to finish up so i can install a new mini-split for the gro-n-flo room and for the new UC room..
its cool shit.
insaneMJ, a convert would be silly, just build new..

Well I like to recycle what I have rather then buying a lot of the same products. The old system would have smaller pots yes, but from what I read for a 4-6 foot tall plant it only needs like 2 weeks of veg before the flip due to the increase of nutes/water uptake. So if you stuck with the smaller pots you'd be able to cut the veg time down even more because the plant wont be as big(3.5-4 ft). Then you'd be able to flip to flower quicker. Kinda like a flood table where you keep your plant number high while cutting down the veg time. Also it wouldn't be hard to convert it just drill a bunch of holes on the opposite side lol, since they have a drain hole already. Maybe I'm not grasping the full concept yet? Lol
One things for sure, I love learning new techniques.
