Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

ez clone misters are only TECHNICALLY 360 degrees. when placed fully vertically and using high preassure they are probably perfect. But, any sort of angle, or anything around 40 gph/mister will result in a double fan spray that really only covers like 70% of the circle, leaving portions open at 90 degrees to the portions fully covered. You can help to solve this by adding more, or by overlapping the sprays. You can't really place these upsidedown with the same effectiveness, as they are designed to be vertically mounted. when designing your system make sure your not relying on one mister to cover a whole circle of res area.
Right on all accounts - and they can actually be mounted upside down too! Check out SOG's thread for detailed EZ clone sprayhead information (did I say detailed - that is an understatement!)

stink (or any one else who knows more than me), i know you clean everything every three weeks, maybe i missed this but once you have a flower unit going do you let it go the whole 9 weeks before you clean it? obviously you dont clean the posts since the roots are all grown together but do you clean the rez at all or is it good for the whole flower cycle?

ps, got my issue of high times in the mail yesterday, good job bro. i wanna be like stinkbud when i grow up lmao! im currently on a waiting list at the local plastic surgeon to have my hands surgically altered to look exactly like yours.
Yo Bro - the res needs to be checked daily for PH and PPM... add water and/or a diluted nute solution to bring to desired PH and PPM. Many Stinkers go weeks without actually cleaning the res... but others like to go 1 to 2 weeks. Botanicare recommends 7 - 10 days (of course they do!) It's nice to flush with water and/or Clearex in between res changes to get all the excess salts out and start with a clean nutrient slate.

I'll go back to the drawing board :wall:
There has to be a good continuous monitoring meter that can go to higher PPM ranges. I'd also like it to have temps too since summer is coming...

I really appreciate your help Lion, Thanks! :clap:
No worries - let us know what you end up with!

Thanks so much!! I can't imagine anyone having to start from the beginning of this thread. 500+ pages is fucking crazy!

I need to write a book. I still have a lot of info to teach. Not to mention I'm always experimenting and changing things.

I'm doing another article for High Times on my 6 hole unit. It works so good I'm tempted on running 6-6 hole units instead of 3-12 hole units.
Yes - book would be welcomed! We need a new bible.

What do you like so much about the 6 hole unit, Stink? I want to try one - especially if you are so stoked on it!

.
Start off by cleaning it every 3 weeks.. this way once flower room is full all res's can be cleaned on the same day once every 3 weeks. ( or when u pull out oldest flower unit )

thanks lionsroor, how long should i run the clearex for before going back to nutes?

I've been following this thread almost from the beginning (and now we just passed 500 pages!), and mostly all I have been able to contribute is questions asked. So...to offer something more substantial, I have created a PDF of the first 500 pages of this thread. Of course it comes out to substantially more pages in PDF format! This was a labor of love as it takes forever to remove all the extraneous info that shows up as you copy each page. I will update the pdf every 100 pages that are added to this great thread and let you know when I do it.

Below is the URL to go to for the pdf. It is just a tad under 40 megs, so I hope most of you have a high speed connection. It is a free site so click on the appropriate links to get to the download page. And only one person can d/l at a time, so have patience.:lol:

The neatest thing about having the whole thread in PDF format is that it is easy to search for anything by word association. This should be helpful especially for newbies to this thread, but hopefully the oldtimers find it useful, too.

Here is the link:

Man thanks a mil. Ive been worried about the site gettin taken down or all this info being removed. Just seemed to good to be true. I come back and look at stuff from many pages ago as I go along. That way as I add things like co2 I can just come back to read up before the instal.
again thanks:mrgreen::eyesmoke:

I just weighed my second batch and only got 15oz. I want a refund! Oh wait, I didn't pay anything except that oz. I gave my best friend who has pain every day. But other than that....what? That is a pound. Oh never mind, I guess I am good.:eyesmoke:

Seriously, I was able to pay it forward to the best friend a guy could ever ask for and I DID get a pound. I tell you that felt better than growing my own meds. Thanks StinkBud!

My state is voting on MMJ this year and if that doesn't pass then we get to vote on it in November. WHEN it passes my buddy and I are going to open a dispensary for sure and make edibles and all. We WILL name some edible after you Stink! I can't wait to get my copy of HT and my DVD.:peace:

No need to thank me, Andyman, but I do appreciate it anyways. Most people on this thread have been so generous with their knowledge that I am glad I could offer something of value. I'll keep the PDF up to date every 100 pages and post it at that time, which on Stink's thread doesn't take too long. And with his article getting ready to hit the stands in HT, we should see a flood of new stinkbuddies real soon now.

Hey Stink...is there mention of this website forum in your article? That would get them here fast...:-?

Put your finger in the hole and if it comes out wet then you are good to go.

This test also works on the wife and girlfriend.
I am still reading way back here on page 38 I think, but when I saw this I knew it was time to subscribe.
Also, I just ordered everything I need to make a cloner and a veg system. I had to order online because I live in the boonies and its about 100 miles to the nearest hydro store. All I need to get is the PVC and the tubs and I will be good to go.

Just figured I would hop in for a quick update...... whatever you guys do.... do NOT get this cycle timer! It will not operate more than one of your pumps! I tried and it powered one single eco 396gph pump perfectly, daisy chain another onto it and only one would fire up. Anything else would remain idle....

Save $90, stay away!






I just bit the bullet and dropped $700 on a xgc-1e greenhouse controller by CAP. It's pretty badass. CO2 monitoring precise to ppm, light control, cycle timer for pumps, ventilation control, all sorts of nifty goodies. It should pay for itself quickly and I figure its worth the investment...

Maybe tomorrow- awesome work man! I'm looking to build one of those this weekend. How much was the total cost? Any chance you can post some more pics or e mail me some? Thanks a lot

Hey, I have a aeroclone - aeroponic system transfer question.

I grew my aeroclones up to about 16" of roots and the clones developed a new layer or two of growth before transfer.

I did not anticipate how much stress it would be to transfer my aeroclones into the 4" round aero chambers.

I noticed this is generally the stink method. My question is...

1) will my plants ever recover from that transfer?

2)how does stink do it all while in 12/12. I can barely get them to recover in 24/7 light still.


pictures show the rhizoshere with wound up ball of root mass where i dropped them into the 4" chambers

Pics also show that wilting continues after 3 days of attempted recovery in 24 light. They were all pointing to the heavens while in the cloner.

Gh 3 part nutes at equal parts - 620ppm

ph-5.7

40 seconds on 4 mins off

room temp = 65-70.
