Why do you cut out the Fasilitor?

Yo Jack!
Couple questions regarding clones:
Any tips on getting all or most to root in the same time frame to transplant?
It looks like you keep the entire rockwool sheet intact and place as many as possible in a tray, creating a "mini bed" type of cloning situtation?
Do you wait until the last ones are well rooted then cut the sheet apart to transplant to beds?
Keep crushing it brotha, I've learned a whole lot from your threads, THANKS!

I too would like to know the reasoning behind this one?
I would like to save the $ but the last weeks are the most important for weight and end product.
And so wen week 5 is up no more facilitator....day one of week 6 on none?
T~P
At week 6 is when we start lowering feed and start giving a lower dose of nutes then week 7 and 8 we flush same with a very very low ec this also starts the beds flush for the next round when we re plant. Why would we want to give a plant something when we are trying to flush everything that's the one thing I did not agree with on the Aptus feed chart.
We use 2" Rockwool sheets and at week 6 flower take cuttings from our moms to allow plenty of time for our cuttings to root for the beds..
Yes give or take a couple days nothing is exact..
That didnt work let me try again...
3 Gavita over 2 -4x8 is what Gavita reccomends.I have one more I can throw up if some one fron Gavita wants to chime in they better hurry beacuse this room is getting flipped soon..Nothing against Gavita I'm hoping they kick every other lights ass but don't reccomend one less light for every 2 tables..If 4 lights is what I need to be equal or better then the rest..
I pm Wazzup to see what his thoughts where and what Gavita would like me to run I'm all about a fair side by side the one big plus for me was being able to run 30 light as opposed to 40.. But if its more I will run them...Jack
Looking forward to this round as I just got four 1000 DE's up and running. Hopefully they perform at a very high level although even if they prove to be similar the fact that the bulbs can go two years and the reflectors are replaceable for like $40 a pop I would have bought them regardless.
Ive been really interested in the gavita's for a year but haven't seen a good comparison like this yet.
if the gav tech's are recommending 3000w worth in a 4000w footprint
and it does what 4000w can do... that is SOMETHING!
but it sounded like a *too good to be true sales pitch*imo
and looks like it is.
I didn't think 3000w could do what 4000w can because of the fixture and bulb
not saying there still GAVs aren't worth buying
but a watt for watt comparison would seemed to be a better way to do it.
the gavita guys telling you to stack 3 of their 1ooow fixtures again 4000w for a comparison is kinda like
shooting themselves in the foot.
I cant see the pics from the last page. Are u using just the hood or the built on ballast version. Sorry can't see.
They sound amaizing. I know on my marine aquarium that double ended bulbs have been around for some time tried and true. Im also interested in seeing how things go as well.
I have to replace allot of my equipment and Im waiting to figure out what direction to go in. The Gav as Jack says deserve some looking into. I see that now after just a bit of research.
Thanks guys.

what about the OG hoods? are they in the mix?
Wow . Read every posy few. I don't like asking a guy a ? If he all ready posted it .that shows me he is lazy .and the poster time is important also.so thank you. I'm a soil guy that runs organics .I mix my own super soil and water every other day by hand 15 gallon smarts .I'm running 200 plants. Under 1000. Bar bulb.I also brew teas . I am going to get aptus and add it to my tricks after seeing your grow. This is my ? Coco can a supper soil cook be dun in it,? And only be water every other day? Could I go 50/50 peat coco and get a gain ? To me coco is for feading the plants a lot like hydro.I can't do that. Any help would be great jack, thank you.
