Well that has always been one of the setbacks for doing SCROG for me, I wanted to make some sort Screen that fixed to the bucket lid and then have it on some sort of ratchet system so I could lift the plant and screen and suspend it while I changed nutes and that. Too much messing about so this is what I do..
Problem solved!! The pump just reaches the bottom of the bucket and effectively drains it all!
Ah cool, yeah that looks like a no-hassle kind of solution
Alls well here
And yes it's gotten quieter -- but also, Alerts are kind of broken, so you may find there are more updates by checking the watched threads list (is what I'm doing) 
So much easier! Pop it in, press a button and wait for it to fill/empty!Ah cool, yeah that looks like a no-hassle kind of solution
I've seen a construction sort of how you described, but I get the feeling that this way is easier!
Hello mate, all is well, how are you? I'm still working away, just back at the weekends, and the internet is absolutely shite where I am so not able to come on for long! Hows the little uns going?
No worries mate mine are really good and growing tall now as flowering starts. How's the Lemon? I'm away this weekend from the girls for the 1st time. I'm going to miss themHello mate, all is well, how are you? I'm still working away, just back at the weekends, and the internet is absolutely shite where I am so not able to come on for long! Hows the little uns going?
Not seen her since Sunday mate, going to see her tonight, can't wait! I'm the same, I miss her all week! lol
I've always used the jiffy plugs, but I don't like them. Going to give the rapid rooters a whirl next time round, which I suppose will be in a few weeks!I'm back after a long abscence. She's looking grea Stick, that stalk is really jacked.
also I was wondering, how do you germinate seeds for your DWC? Rockwool, straight into hydroton, starter plugs?
That's what I have always done with the jiffy plugs yeah, but it seems with the RR's the best way is to use the glass of water method and then pop them in. Good luck mate, and let us know how you get on!!Fantastic, thanks for the clearing up Stick. I use something akin to Rapid Rooters, they are called Easy Plugs. Couldn't find any RR in this bloody country. Okay, I'll give the paper towel method a go. And once you germinate them I assume you pop the seeds root down into the plug?
I'm asking because I've had enough of wasting seeds trying to give a go at hydroponics. My God, soil was so much easier, never have I once wasted a seed then.
It's definitely best to check everyday, to make sure pH and EC/CF are spot on, but no it's not necessary. I forgot to check the pH when I got back last night so I'm not sure! But from past experience it tends to stay within the range if she has been fed properly before I go away.
lovely!
Thank you!lovely!
I get the impression your spacing is just right too -- lots of colas, but still far enough apart so the leaves in between still have space to spread out
Do your flowers go all the way down to the net too, or do they have a bit of breathing space down there?
lmao @ snidey buggers !!!Thank you!
Mine go all the way down as well, and theres a little bit underneath, maybe an inch under the net. Owt under that gets cut off, just had to cut a load of new shoots and little buds that were trying to form underneath, snidey buggers!
