yeah, I've really been under the tracks, school is back in session.

But I'll like to be up here at least twice a week.

Roseman I'm ordering the bubbleponics from stealth tonight so I'm still making some progress.

I don't think I've had any questions really directed at me in this thread lol.

Okay, so im thinkin of goin bblponics for my upcoming grow, but i have a few Q's if anyone can help me out. Im only going to be growing 2 plants this time around, and one in each 5 gal bucket. But what i need to know is how big of an airstone and airpump do I need for a res. of this size? Ive always done drip systems, but Roseman has a way of convincing ppl haha. Also, does it ever become a problem of nute burn/ def. with these systems? I may not be able to check it one or two days out of the week.(every other weekend)

Here is the Bubbleponics thread:

Bubblponics is a system of having nutrient enriched water delivered to each grow cup and cube, via a irrigation hub, under-water pump, and some feeder tubes. Like this:


a tube runs to each cup, with bubbley water in it full of oxygen and nutes, like an underwater drip system.

I do not believe anyone could do a HYDRO grow, checking on it on only a few days a week. It is an hour a day job, at least..

No, I mean I will not be able to tend to it 1 or 2 days OUT of the week. As in 5 or 6 I would. But I went to the site and watched the video of theyre setup, and i understand it more now, thx

I built my cabinet in an armoire, and after some tweaking, reliably pull 6 ozs of grass from it every 2 weeks or so.

I basically just built the whole system from mother to veg to flower SoG style using Al B Fucts guide, and its working great for me.

I got the armoire off craigslist for 50 bucks, and it sits in my office in front of a window, where it vents in and out thru the window for air and cooling.

You would never know in a million years that it was a grow cabinet.

Armoir are cool cause they look like they are supposed to be in your house, and they are very easy to make air/water/light
tight with a little aquarium silicon and some weather stripping.

Everyone makes the mistake of thinking BIGGER is better. WRONG! Smaller is better.
The tank has to be STURDY, and dark and not allow light in. I suggest a 8 gallon, with 6 gallons of water, or use 5 gallon buckets.
The ting about BUBBLEPONICS is the rapid growth that comes from having a feeder tube feeding the cube and root ball 24/7 when it is just a sprout and a small plant. You have to raise the lights an inch daily,everyday, to accomadate the rapid growth.

That sounds awesome dude, congrats, get some pics up if you can. I'm still working on weather sealing my cabinet. I'm thinking of moving it to the corner rather than the closet now. I have to add some wheels to it as well.

I really can't wait to start. Buying from others is a drag.

Hey Rose how many CFL's are you using? I'm going the CFL route
