Dont do it during dark periods, do it during the light period. Just disconnect the pots, drain em, drive away, and reconnect at the new place. Easy. If height is an issue, you can put bags around the buckets and lay the plant sideways, just be extremely careful if you choose to do this, it isnt the best way.Anyone have advise on doing an emergency move of a 12 site with 3 foot plants in flower? The new room is ready for them, but it is 60 miles from their current location. It's a shitty situation, but they have to be moved by the end of the week because my friend is an idiot. I appreciate any help that I can get to minimize the stress on my girls.
STG inserts, for Ebb & Flow systems aka buckets, are garbage. They are too weak in the center, and unfortunately a cool idea just poor design. STG has said they want to make them better but for ever they have not.how about those STG inserts? does anyone like them or had success with them? what have you found?
Then you watched the STG sponsored Youtube videos. They suck for Ebb & Grow. Hydroton is the ONLY way to fly in an Ebb & Grow, with perhaps a 1" Rockwool starter cube but that's it!i hear STG are awesome, and you get the best yields!
in the quick reply box below.. in the lower right hand corner "Go Advanced".. -hit that.i have posted pics on my profile for you to see. i would put them on this post but i dont know how. maybe someone can tell me how.
I just use a 1.5" piece of board under controller for first 3 weeks. After that the roots are developed enough to "wick" to top. The croutons help with the uptake too. I pull the board to limit amount of standing water at bottom of buckets after feeding.the bigger the cubes the more of a head start i can get out of my veg room... 4x4 flood tray with 1000 mh.. i can fit 50+ 4" cubes in there and get them 1.5 ft tall to transfer to my buckets.. saves tons of space..
if i wanted to go to 5's would i just need to raise the controller with a brick or somethin??
Looks great ears. You've got it dialed in.thank you for your help, and what do you think?
This new RIU version has a Journal that you can invite people to see your grows. That way threads such as "for all cap & ebb grow users" won't get cluttered with off-topic posts.this is for the above post
