WTF is in your doublebubble? Koolaid?

 

[iamthebullgod]

Greetings to All here at IC. Order ALL my seeds from Gyspy(great site) but had never been to IC till the OG crash of “06 “Black Sunday” – Thought I caused it Blaze cuz I had just posted a ?? in your 2800 DWC thread- 5 mins later gone. I am gonna try again. I just finished a 10 bucket dwc grow under 800w (2 rows of 5 buckets connected inline) w/ a 40 hal res no controller basically a gravity feed passive system. I did have a pump in last bucket timed to run back to res every 2 hrs so things did get recir’d. I am upgrading system to your tree setup from OG tutorial for new crop this weekend and had a couple of ??.

I now have 2 1000w and 2 400w similar to you w/o any light movers. What do you suggest as best config. For bucket and lights- I can add buckets now(12 like yours) and plan to double buckets and lights for next grow. I am taking reflectors off and going vertical. I am building 2 homemade cooltubes for 1000w.

When doing nute calculation w/ AN calculator and feeding tables in your thread do you go by res gal only or entire system ie 40 gal res plus 10 buckets so add enough for like 80 gal since buckets are never full. This time I will be running a 30 gal controller res w/ 24/7 pump and float connected to 42 gal fresh water res

Looking around here I read the Big Toke bio bucket thread which led to another question. I normally use hydrocorn clay – should I switch to lava rock-I thought I remember you mention it and what is the exchange rate it your system or do you even worry about it. Thanks for all your info and I hope to set up a room ½ as sweet and techy as ours but I trying to get there.

1 last loaded ?? This grow will be c1 clones of AK-47 from Gypsy. I am gonna buy new genetics from Gypsy for next run and wondered any input on best strain to max yield in your system. I am not really growing to tree size-looking to turn 12 buckets in 8wks so when I got to 24 I will rotate and crop 12 every month. I’m vegging in sep. room

[HOVAH]

Heah Man whadup ? what are the benefits of a your bucket design,why circulate the water? thanks 1HOVAH

 

[blazeoneup]

Circulate so the nutrient level in every bucket remains stable and balanced.The benefits to this system is only having to change nutrients once weekly.Just easy as possible.

 

[Guest]

Nice to see you here blaze..grow looks amazing...how much did those cool tubes run you? and what site? thanks

 

[blazeoneup]

[Guest]

Thanks blaze..My 1000 watt hps is on the way and Its got some cheapo reflector w/ it and the tubes look real nice..but witch is better to mount horizontal or vertical?


My grow is going well man thanks for all your help...I have one confirmed Boo berry female...

 

[sticky icky]

Blaze very nice grow, I've read and researched all your grows at OG, and hear and following your thread hear. I'm in the process of setting up a simular grow. I've constructed 6 tree style bucket, res, all lines, air hoses ect. and have been test running the system for about 3 days. Its going to be 6 bucket grow under 1000w. My question is I have rapped my buckets and lids with heating duct insulation to light proof the containers, do you think this will cause a heating problem later. My temp are running 73 consistant for the last 3 days with 24 of light. I also just wanted to say thanks for passing so much information are way. I've been lerking for about a year on these 2 sites, trying to gain knowledge and just wanted to thank you with my first post

Looks like you are over feeding a little bit maybe lower the nutrient strength by 150ppm.Have you been topping off with nutrients or just plain water?Other than that its comming along.Wont be long before your room is full of nugs.

Stickyicky

Well the thing i would say is if you have a water chiller running like you should if you are growing recirculating dwc it should be fine.

However if you are not running a chiller this might very well become an issue during the summer heat.I would recomend getting a chiller asap as it is an investment much worth the price.

Thank you very much for contributing your first post to thanking me as them kinda post incourage people like me to do what we do as what would be the point of us sharing our systems/grows if they were not helpful to others.I am not one to post to just show off though i dont mind showing off a little but i try to keep my threads geared torwards helping others.Until next time be safe and take care

 

[blazeoneup]

Ok guys removed the males today and the results are 12 seedlings 5 males 7 females.Got some re/arranging to do But may just leave them how they are but it looks funny with empt spaces lol.

And im kinda picky when it comes to the plant arrangements lol.I will take more pictures later tonight i had the macro function on lol new camera and it has a little to many functions.Amazingly even in the macro mode the backround is still nice and clear just dark.

 

[Chiefsmokingbud]

Oh btw cheifsmokingbud nice extraction tubes man they are exellent

Thanks Blaze, looks like you'll really put that equiment to use. I'm pulling up a seat to this show
