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!)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.
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.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.
No worries - let us know what you end up with!I'll go back to the drawing board
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!
Yes - book would be welcomed! We need a new bible.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.
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 )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?

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

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.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.
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.

I am still reading way back here on page 38 I think, but when I saw this I knew it was time to subscribe.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.
