Hi biggreen,
this is my first post, Ive been lurking in the shadows reading about these under current setups. Joined cuza your thread!!
I think your grow is amazing, real healthy lookin ladies! Im really considerin switchin from soilto one of these, but was just really curious as to your final yield from the 2k? did you hit 4 pounds?
Was wonderin also if when using an auto top up to keep the resevoir full, do you use an airstone and/or waterpump in it? or is it just sitting still and gravity fed when required?
Fantastic grow!!
peace

Congrats on your 1st post.
I still dont know the yield because I still have 2 plants to trim. If I dont hit 4#s its gonna be real close. I always keep a air stone in my res.
The under current is the shit. It makes the growing easier with how stable it keeps everything.
Good luck BG

Well I trimmed today for another 3 hrs with 3 dudes. Im sure the yield is gonna be retarded. I pulled down 1 string of pk and it filled a paper bag 1/3 of the way. I still have 1 big ass 1/2 of a plant to trim. So in about a week I will have final numbers. I will surely take some dried bud pile pics as well. Im guessing that I have at least 3#s still drying out if thats right I'll be right around 5#s. Like I said I will be happy with 4#s in the UC with the pk my first run. Next run I wont be happy unless I hit at least 5#s.

It's like Christmas, and you can't unwrap the gifts fast enough...and it looks like Santa was real good to you.
hey also what kind of reflective film is that? that looks like sun film ultra or what is it?
also if you can check out my thread. I plan to put 2 1k's for veg on 4x5x8 (well close to cut a few inches around)
is this fine? or what would you do? using botanicare aeroponics aerojet 4 tray.
and for flower i plan to do 4 1k's again with aerojet 4 tray
check out my thread
also what you guys say minimal results of dry product for first time grower would be with 4 1k's on flower running true aeroponics bushy tall plants not sog
12 to 16 plants

thanks for the reply biggreen,
thats why im so drawn to the undercurrent, the nutrient levels seem to stay good and stable and every grow ive seen using it looks amazing! havnt tried hydro before, but want to go dwc.was thinkin try a single bucket for a first run instead of trying to go all out.
if it goes half decent il probably end up building an undercurrent instead of buying one due to my location! should the airstone in the auto top up be as large as the one in the epicenter?
really hope you hit the 5# this run, though 4# is also very impressive and what il be aiming for!

Paint the picture for us BG 
Hell if you hit 4 then you essentially are at 2 per light and that’s the Holy Grail indoors. Are you including the hempys with those #'s or stictly uc weight? All in all a very sweet prize, can’t wait for the detailed smoke report...
Thanks everyone
Gus 2 1ks over 4x5 is to much just use 1 in a magnum xxxl hood.
Theghost it doesnt matter what size stone goes in the rez I just like to keep the water moving.
Stony ya got that right she is a gem for sure. Im gonna get one last root porn for ya.
L-immortal The #s are gonna be all broke down. Im aiming for 4#s just from the UC. I already total up almost 2#s from the top colas in the UC and Im pretty sure I have a lot more from the bottom half of the plants. We'll see in a few more days.
I have to clean up the room then its go time. Round 2 8 pk in the 8xl 13 gal from the start.
Clones have about 10" roots ready to go in.

sounds sweeeet!
tally? i am to curious. i keep looking on here daily for a weigh in lol
The #s are in!
The #s are in!
The Uc has performed well.
I know I will get a lot more next run but this run has came in at 1760 grams of dried bud from the UC. Im missing probably a lb because I pulled and replace 3 plants that were 10 days behind the rest. That gave me 3 plants at least 18" smaller than the rest.
Im in the planning of expanding the room from 12x10 to 12x13. Im gonna run 2 UC 8xls side by side with 4k of lights flipping 2k every 2 hrs. So Im hoping to at least double my yields with only running 2k worth of juice.
Hydrosun that sensi star is some funky ass shit man. The nugs are harder than the pk and smell of something really funky.
I will post up the new thread once I start it. Im thinking 8 pks vs 8 frostitutes. Which will out yield? Im not sure but we will all find out!
Thanks for all the positive replies
