Do you prefer the Hydrofarm hoods? Dont think the XXXL's would do better? So do you have a float on your rez and tops off...bringing ppms down with every feeding? sorry if im not gettin' the obvious here...

that looks awesome....i may give the air-pots a whirl...have you noticed a significant difference from whatever you were using before?

set em up and knock em down dude! :)

GOOROO

been maxing out at 8 ml per gallon which is right around 500-550 of a + b.


question....why are your hoods hung like a monkey did it?

never used the xxl's, but with my tightly designed room, i think the xxl's would be over kill. i think those are better for rooms that arent as tightly packed, my hallways are like 13 inch's for the love of god! so its TIGHT.

as far as watering goes, im still hand watering at the moment, and i water till run off , not multiple waters a day,so i just make my tanks, water the plants , then pump the run off back into the tanks an top with RO water :) and water the next day with the lower ppm food

airpots def are the shit! my growth rates seem to be faster forsure. all in all i really like them! accept cleaning them is a bitchhhh. haha

:tiphat:

nah bro....haha.. i've been meaning to ask you this for a while...they aren't level, or squared/even or in rows really for that matter what's the deal?

I always place mine precisely squared off to uniform row's/footprint.


edit....I see your only using one string per hood....man you need to get that fixed...... guarantee your yield would go up.

they are hung according to tables, and trust me, they cover the tables just how i like um :tiphat: and right now they are at dif levels cause the plants are at dif levels. thanks for your input tho

1 string per light? yeild go up? i was trying to be nice, but COME ON MAN. haha

i average 7-8 oz a plant, with my monkey hung hoods. lol i was hitting 2 pounds per light on most of my banner tables so i really dont think a extra pce of string will do much!

my set up rocks like a mother fucker and ill put it up to anyones!

later :)

Ok now my day is complete, gotta check in before bedtime so I can have so excellent dreams.

As far as the xxxl's I have used as well as the cheap adjust-a-wings and really the difference is next to nill. Either way they both are some really big hoods.

As the airpots go yeah I likey but no bueno on the long cleaning process, I run both (airpots vs regular) and unless you are going over 6 months with some outdoor monsters or moms the difference is really debatable. In coco it's all about the oxygen exchange. I wont muck up a beautiful thread with pics but I have the .8 gallon airpots on dtw with timers that water 5x per day and they yield exactly the same as a 5 gallon pot. Just a pain in the arse if they get a we bit dry if not in scrog or similar.

Adrift keep on rockin it my brother, I wish I had the stones to post such a sweet informative thread.

your gonna try to tell me that your hoods sit level and your bulbs are centered?

There is a thing called overlap and if you hang all your hoods squared with one another you get more of it and more uniformity across the room......

Not speaking from inexperience, only hit 3lb over 5 times now.

:YaRight: This is the last thread that needs any criticism or advice my dude, Drift is always super cool & the fact that his methods are shared are worth 1000 words. Anything over 1.25-1.5 per light is pretty dialed in. I guess once you're hitting 2 per people just get jealous :wtf:

damn, hand watering once a day............cant wait to see you automate your watering and water multiple times per day, it'll be a jungle in there.

wow bro....a little but hurt or what.....

that is fine.....your loss not mine....
not even up for a friendly conversation, and clearly can't take any criticism.

Didn't think it was bullshit.....basic logic really. :tiphat:

GOOROO

ps....ANY grow is only as good as its limiting factor....IE> your hoods hung inefficiently and nonuniform.

Wasn't talking shit....Really you do have a great setup, but what would you say the limiting factor is......

Your temps were inline, everything was fed well if not perfect, you have co2, and you have strains that can def yield a bit more.....sorry I offended you.
 
Damn fam this is the first thread I read every post on in a while. You got this shit outlined in chalk. 187 killin it. I'm gonna model my new grow after this but on a smaller scale. Thanks bruh and dust your shoulder off cause you got one of those lil haters hangin on. Keep it sticky fam and stay safe
