heath inspired test prototype (aero)

[Grizz]

cat i did just that very thing yesterday, half tap and halh ro. it came in at 6.2 so just barley had to add a little ph down.

wonderfull looking blackberry, that dt7 isent in my rotation any more, got the cookie cut and a rasberry kush in the cloner as well as the adubb.

Yeah that blackberry looks sweetassed! Cant wait till ya got some weights on this round, it looks pretty damned good from my perspective.

If ya got around to taking a few pics of roots that would be cool to look at, if/when ya have the time.

Don't feel bad about not being able to crack a cold one. Hell I am in the middle of moving the contents of my shop and residence basically single handed.
~Moving to a beautiful place though~
Got 50 veg plants sitting on pallets under a 1k and mover. Last night I let loose with a peritherin bomb in each hand,lol. Dead bugs covering the floor now. Gonna chop a flat grow and gather up a bunch of clones at the old place the 15th and that will be the last load outta there!

Best to yah...Hazed

ETA: I think DHF is right on the money bro. IME (35 yrs) fruits and vegetables ripen earlyier and have better grade (quality) and flavors when they don't have luxuriant amounts of N! Otherwise they can be woody and flavors/smells just arent there.
I think there is a lot to be gained by dialing in to where the plant gets just what it needs and no extra.
This why I am switching to hydro, as soon as the hot weather ends, way more control than coco/soil!

Man..i just bagged and trashed up the rootballs from the adubs...they were freakin huge. Its a shame.

I just cracked a cold corona..lol. Its too hot today to do any work.
Yea..im excited to get going with the gh nutes and dwindling the N out.

Yea that was the last of the DT7..i didnt take any clones..it just didnt fill the canopy like i was hoping. But the adub is still around,,,im gonna keep it going until i find something better. (which reminds me) im still interested in what we talked about, ive just got tons of stuff going on right now. So hopefully when i get things sorted out it will still be available.

 

[Grizz]

sure bro, its ready to go when you are

 

[Hazed]

Its cool! I see improvement in the crop and just figured there is likely notable improvement in root mass. Hopefully after this hot weather I will be able to produce some nice Aero bitches and see first hand.
Enjoy the cold beer man, you earned it.
I'm almost a 1 hr drive from the nearest grocery store, but thinking about making the trip (there is a nice bar on the way too). It was above 90f by 10:00 AM here and we are in the mountains,lol.

 

[silver hawaiian]

Always lurkin', .. Thought I'd come up for air.

Looking beautiful FHC! That blackberry kush looks great. Hoping you hit your mark on this one dude.

 

[farmhouse cat]

Thanks SILVER !

Hey everybody. Im still waitin on my mini split..its been over a week. Pissed!

Anyhow... once i get everything installed and sealed up what temperature and co2ppm would you shoot for?

I was thinking 78deg and 900 ppm of co2.

 

[250wscrogger]

Some would run it at like 82f and 1500ppm c02 but I think 78f with 900ppm is perfect.
Over 1000ppm c02 is said to be a waste

 

[DHF]

Spurr/Goro at other places came up with the study that showed whatever category plants pot was classified in could only use and metabolize up to 900 ppm`s CO2 and benefit from it during lights on since they shit out/transpire what they didn`t use during lights off , as well as lettin me know that my crazy ass relative humidity levels in Hell that Krusty preached about yrs ago for perfect environment was labeled as "VPD/vapor pressure deficit" , and why my yields were so consistent yr in and yr out.......Hell....

I thought it was cuz I was learnin....LOL.....I was just lucky come to find out.....

I know this....My RH and CO2 levels spiked bigtime during lights off after end of stretch , and it`s to be dealt with for plant and environmental control till end of cycle or there`s all kinds of problems available to happen in late flower.....bet on it.....

My PPM`s stayed in the 750 range with air exchange twice per minute , and my rooms ran in the mid 80`s during deep summer , but mostly right below 80.......regardless....no matter what...

Keep lights on and off temps within 10 degree variables to prevent condensation forming on the plants with cooler lights off temps in late flower....

The little things guys.....

Peace....Freds...........

luck does play a part but constant monitering and a open mind goes a long way,

Looks like 78 and 900 will do the job. With things sealed up and the mini split i should be able to keep temps super close day and night. Only thing im wondering is if im going to be able to get my humidity up high enough through stretch with the AC keeping the room at 78?
I mounted my dehumidifier high in one corner of the room, So after stretch it shouldnt be a problem to get the humidity down. The drain hose runs right into the raingutter system. Im also gonna drain the AC condensate straight into the system. Nothin like free RO water! Hookin up my water cooled co2 today. And just waiting for my mini split to arrive.

 

[DHF]

Be careful with dehuey condensate unless the "innards" are made out of titanium dioxide..then it`s cool.....also....

Never ran my a/ccondensate back to my R/O tanks , but monitoring the condensate line for slime formation will keep yas on top of things Bro......anyways....

Waitin fer shit ta happen.....Got my bucket ready....

Peace....Freds..........

 

[farmhouse cat]

Unbelievable! Ive been waiting for a week for processing of my mini split. Well i finally got an email today that said they were out of stock!
This is after i called a week ago to place the order and make sure they had it in stock. I wont ever use goductless.com again!

So now the friedrich 18's are out of stock everywhere.

I went ahead and ordered the mitsubishi 17,200 btu 19.2 seer from another place. So..we'll see how it goes this time.

Dhf, im not sure if my dehuy has the titanium innards but i will check.

I guess my veg plants are gonna get an extra week or so of veg time.

I installed the dehuy up in the corner. The co2 gen is almost ready and the veg plants are thriving. Also ran the scrub/filter/air circulator duct up through the attic down into my equiptment room and into the bottom of the room. The mini split will be installed high on the right wall. The cool air and co2 will get sucked immedietly into circulation and into the loop. The dehumidified air later in flower should in theory circulate into the loop also. Gonna be fun to see how it goes...

I tried twice 2 upload to the site but its a bitch again.

 

[Ground Up]

looks good , ,..ouch an extra week of veg in aero! gonna top or buy Gorilla tape!,lol good luck

Hey DHF. Ya think i should just drain both AC and dehuey to waste? I could easily do that..maybe it'l save some headaches later.

LOL..no toppin. Gonna have to just deal with it. I cant wait to get shit organized.....seems like a never ending process.

Gotta give a shout out to me. I just partook of the recently harvested Adub and im now being abducted by aliens.

 

[DHF]

Mitsubishi mini-splits are the standard of the industry in Hell for remodels and renovation projects and sold 3 million units last yr world wide.......but....

My HVAC sub-contractor that sells and installs said units SWEARS they`re good till they fuck up and need worked on..........then ....

It`s Hell diagnosing all the possibilities and variables involved to figure out what it takes ta get em back online in a home , much less to keep your bitches from burnin up and croakin on the vine.......so....

I`ve ALWAYS suggested "auxiliary" active intake and exhaust as a failsafe should the A/C take a shit and haveta wait to be replaced/repaired in sealed rooms.........anyways.....

Everyone`s NOT outta stock on the Freidrich`s Bro...just gotta keep searchin and......Mr D ain`t old head fer nothin......Ya`ll could do WHOLE lot worse by not heedin time tested and proven results from shit that he`s had no hiccups with for several yrs......

I`m just sayin.....If yas gotta do mini-splits.....Mitsubishi cost`s more and fucks up faster , or so I`ve been told..and.......Medville`s got bad reports on all the made in China units with US logo`s on em as well......but......

The Freidrich`s are warrantied and able ta be worked on fairly easy within the US with available parts once outta warranty.....so...Do the math.....

Peace....Freds...........

 

[farmhouse cat]

Fudge!

Hey DHF. Ya think i should just drain both AC and dehuey to waste? I could easily do that..maybe it'l save some headaches later.

Im not DHF but I have both my mini split and dehuey draining to waste and before I made my dehuey drain to waste it was a headache to need to empty the rez every 5hrs not to mention the unit turns off when the rez is full now it runs 24hrs non stop dehumidifying. The A.c was set up to run to waste from the begginigng

MY 36,000 YMGI Minisplit heat pump cost 2,400 shipped off ebay. Works great but I had my hvac guy install it. idk if you need a dyi install model for safety reasons?

Hey DHF. Ya think i should just drain both AC and dehuey to waste? I could easily do that..maybe it'l save some headaches later.

If yas don`t need it , why risk it with the fastest hydro setup known to God and man where the plants absorb shit IMMEDIATELY when the roots are sprayed.....

I`m just sayin.....Maybe I`m paranoid.....

But I`d err on the side of mega results instead of wtf happened and fucked my cycle up yield wise.....

Peace....Freds..........
