Very helpful content. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Are you essentially using 3/4in pvc and 2in abs throughout? Hope you are well

everything on the feed steps down in size until it gets to the sprayers.
With the 6 sites, I have 1 pump that has a 1" line off it. that goes to the back of the bars where it splits to 2 3/4" "bars" that run down the sides.
Its further stepped down to 1/2" at each site. Each side of the tent had its own pump when there were 12.
Step downs and equal lengths are important to get equal pressure to every site.

In the cloner, theyre just in small neoprene inserts. I leave them in the cloner until the roots touch the water at least. When theyre old enough, I just pop the insert up and carefully pull the plants up out of the collars.
Then I feed the roots through a small hole I cut in the bottoms of my pots. I hold the plant with the roots through the hole and fill in around them with hydroton. The transplant rips some roots off, but theyre old enough that it doesnt matter much. This has made the transition into the full system soooooo much easier and faster and I highly recommend doing it like this is you can.

Here's some pics from the first time I did it like this last winter.

Glad to be of service to you guys!
Ill get some pics up here in a few days.
Getting really close to chop yet. I wasnt expecting them to take quite this long, I think the light stress slowed them down a bit? maybe idk.
They are bulking up nicely though.

Where'd u get black buckets for veg setup? Looking to setup something similar.

I had to order them by the box of 10 to get a decent price.
Theyre $5-6 each or a box of 10 is like $32 through walmart.com

Looking back on it, it would have been easier to make the table a few inches shorter and use 5 gallon ones instead of 3.5s
You can find black 5 gals in lowes or home depot sometimes. If they dont have them you can order them to the store for free.

It was so much... I was going to trim some be we didnt end up doing much. it took 4-5 hours just to cut and hang everything with my wife helping.
I scrubbed myself in a scalding hot shower for 20 mins after and my arms and legs are still sticky as hell lmao.

Get back in the shower and use a rag soaked in isopropyl to wipe it off or use coconut oil all over where it's sticky. That takes it right off

I know you don't mind yield much, but those little top colas would have me throwin those genetics out.

They really arent all that small. There's stuff like this on most of the main tops and they are thick and dense. Most of the mains were falling over.
Im happy enough with the yield for it being 6 plants. Its so much ill probably end up throwing a lot of the loose larfy shit away so I dont have to trim it.

I am going to knock a couple weeks off the veg and probably drop them down to 6 branches instead of 8-10. I don't need this much every harvest lol. They ended up kinda tall and lanky this round.

Everything went really smooth this crop other than when upgraded my lights and burned them! lmao..
The trichomes are insane though!! this is by far the frostiest stuff ive grown and havent seen much frostier.

This was a strain I had been after. Its Hazeman stuff so nothing special.
Probably going to run some of my Bodhi stuff next.
