Thanks for all the links buddy. I ordered a crap ton of 3 and 4 way corners. Here is the net I use https://www.agriculturesolutions.com/netting-and-fencing/trellis-support-nettingfuck 3/4 pvc for trellis, its way over kill, you can also forget the 18" its too far apart we use 12" here, some strains may need a third layer.
my trellis is free standing, meaning its in my trays not fastened to shit.
these will be very important

TREETROIT in the house! Glad to have yaTagged in
I can’t see anything wrong with them either. I’m impressed. Maybe I ll get them installed in about 1/10th the time and run out of things to do, lol. I do like my platforms and square farmers. Their clean,neat and hide the drain hoses. Afew things I don’t like: after a bit the trays get gunky, drip clean helps. When I defolaite leaves go everywhere, they have to be cleaned out of my trays. When a few gets missed they can clog my 3/4” drain and cause a flood. If I was gonna do just a few I’d consider bucket in a bucket drain. Or if you have more plants just a 3x6 or 4x8 drain table.I keep trying to think of a problem with using those support rods.. scanning that picture over and over.. and I just can’t think of any circumstance they might cause an issue
Looks good man, a lot of the time the best solutions are the simplest. Might have missed it, but what did you end up pulling yield wise, per light, watt, whatever?
Your drain trays have had me intrigued since I first saw them. Trying to come up with something similar, just a smaller scale. Was originally just going to use 4 3x3 tables draining to condensate pumps, but I’m thinking of changing that up after seeing your setup. Anything you’d change about it in retrospect, or would definitely do different if you were installing in a smaller room? (8x11, 2 4x8’s with aisle in middle). Currently running smart pots on the floor with blumats. What a stupid idea, but by the time I battled every other problem I had, the plants needed the space and I couldn’t make up my mind on what I wanted to do fast enough. Thank god there’s a floor drain not too far away xD.
Thanks glad it’s working for you. Nothing on the cuts just your standard 45 cut. The magic is all in the RezEric,
Really looking good. I’ve been rocking the same jacks formula as you and the plants are looking better than I ever remember. Thanks for that info.
Quick question when you take cuts - I see your recipe for the water inside he turboklone, but do you use any cloning gel or anything on the actual cuts? Let me know when you get a chance. Thank you!!

impressive eric2028Well after building a trellace structure of pvc and also using support rods I have a few thoughts to share. The trellace structure was fairly cheap to build but it took a good amount of labor. Also it’s not cool to in stall a structure by yourself. I used rope ratchets to the ceiling instead of legs. It keeps the net good and tight. I definitely favor the support rods I gotta say. It cost more up front but I installed all the rods and trained the entire canopy in the time it took to build that pvc structure. So support rods FTW!! Thanks guys for the thoughts and ideas!!

I’m spraying Monterrey(spinosad) for a minor thrip infestation. Also, I spray regalia once a week until about week 4 in bloom.What are you spraying? Sounds like a good trade off hose vs luggin around a few gallons. I was actually about to buy one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SBC1DQL/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_7?smid=ARLWOLH2TNLDW&psc=1
But the thought of having to lug all that around and not hit anything between aisles left it in the save for later and think about it category. Glad you posted this.
Ps it has been long enough did MKP addition fix your veg issues or ya still got some wily ones? For now my mega crop for veg then switch to jacks for flower and hand water megacrop and additives once a week is killin it.

Yes between the mkp and decreasing light intensity my issue cleared up with 1.5 weeks. Now I’m week 2.5 in bloom and everything is perfect. A gradual increase to 115% is a must. That mega crop sounds good. Does it gunk up your reZ?
That sprayer def got good reviews. I don’t think you can go wrong with that paint sprayer tho. Plus, you could always take up painting lol j/k.
I don’t get in a hurry for roots and don’t have much problem seeing cuts root but never have they been so thick, like octopus arms instead of the usual stringy jellyfish tentacles. Good luck to you.
Your welcome! Glad it s working good for you. Nice roots!!Run the cloner a bunch, never had roots like these. Thank you for the flow of knowledge and experience
Other room starting the flush. Kinda lame...
