Epic thread Stinkbud awesome advice for a complete first timer thanks so much man! I do however have one question as to how much nutrient solution you put in your containers as I live in Europe and the biggest container I can get is 13 gallons compared to the 18 you are using.

Wonin, any container that is light proof and water tight will work as the res in a veger. You could use 20 liter buckets for the top chamber. Maybe 2 ice chest's stacked?. Possibilities are endless. You have to think outside of the box sometimes.
About your timer, I convert our $10US. 15/15 timers to run 40 sec on and 4 min +/- off. Never messed with a European 240 V timer tho. I could prolly figure it out tho. Problem is shipping overseas. BTW some have been using 15/15 with some success:joint:

well
iv changd my timer to 15min on, 30min off seems to be going alot beter, some have suggested 15min on 60mon off so gona try that n c how it goes. i was running my timers on constantly when i 1st got the aerop table and fuckd them all up with magnsium defficiency but doin alot better now

Just break it down to how many ml per gallon. So, for example, if he suggests using 540ml of Pure Blend Pro for 18 gallons then you can calculate that he's using 30ml per gallon (540ml/18g=30). In your case, you'd need 390ml of Pure Blend Pro for 13 gallons:leaf:

really its not even that difficult mix the nutes in a gallon jug like stink said add nute to bring your ppm up to 2000 about 1/3 of your jug should put you right but just add slowly no need for all these formulas stink made it simple but yes it could be caculated out and done that way but the other is much easier

not to speak for the master but i think he runs an average that best suits what is in his quiver at the time different strains take different amounts he has to take whats best for his combo if you think that your babies need more food bump it up slowly and when you hit peak youll start getting tip burn back off 300-500 ppm and thats about all she can take hope this helps and as far as i know yes he keeps his nutes at a set level through out the whole flowering period then again i think might have read in here some where that he might bump it up according to strains maybe hell chime in

yeah, i have seen a few people do this... certain strains are ok with this, others freak out. best is to test out what works best for you.

QUESTION!!!

how much water are we supposed to start off with in the resv? the full 18gallons?

since the resv needs to be changed ever 2/3weeks, is that water still nute'd enough to pour on outside plants? would the concentrations be too high?

how do we go about the process if we want to use the veg box as our cloner as well? wont the cloner liquid mess up the veggie plants? or do i have it backwards and the veg box can act as a flower box, and the cloner HAS to be separate no matter what?

CLONER 1) Add enough water to cover the pump but don’t fill it over half way. We don’t want the roots to
hang in the water.
VEG Step 7 – Setup and Conclusion
1)Add 15 Gal. of water. (approx.) to the reservoir
2) Add nutrient mixes until the meter reaches 2000 PPM
3)Adjust the PH to 5.8
4)Put the lid on the plant unit.
5)Fill the vegetative unit with your favorite strains from the clone unit.
6)Set your cycle timer to one minute on and five minutes off.
7) Enjoy your new vegetative unit!!!! You should see amazing growth rates.
Don’t forget to pass the love on…

ok what makes these 'roughneck' rubbermaids solid over others? can someone take a pic of how the inners of the lid are? all lowes has are clear roughneck totes, everything else are no name brands that are labeled 'tough'.

Order them online at Rubbermaid.com. They're definitely the best storage bins that are commercially available. The way they're designed is in a manner in which the lid slopes upwards and then back down to reduce the likelihood of leakage. This doesn't mean, however, that it won't leak at all. You'll definitely want to apply weather strip along the inside of the lid. I've had some lids that don't leak without the weather strip but it all just depends. Good luck finding them. Once you start using them, you'll know why most of us are using them and highly suggesting them:leaf:

dark green would be fine both will work just use the trash bag method get a large black leaf bag or similar and line the tote with it blocks light helps prevent leaks stink switched to it and says its so much easier

the best totes out right now are from lowes. they come in a 2 pack - black bottom yellow lid. spray paint the tops black first then white to prevent light leakage. i used the cheap $1 can spray bomb. heres my first cloner following the StinkBud system.
