Ok a light came on, I have a big fat rubbermaid tub with a lid, could I cut two holes in this lid far enough away and put two net pots in the lid and have them grow in the same bucket? A possibility I'd really like to know.
Hey GJ that tubs sounds plenty big enough to me..you dont need one airstone per plant but its best too..just make sure you have an even amount of bubbles through out your tub for the best results.
this is an istresting tread mate,very simple to construct and easy to maintain!
very impressed looks like i might go investergate some sir pumps tommorow,just out of intrest!
Kindest regards,FT
Booyakisha,
I have a nice ol bucket that I constructed yesterday along with a trainwreck and afghan trainwreck clone that I need to let root I'm soooooo excited to see this in action, I think I'm gonna keep it on a shorter veg cycle just cause I only have a limited amount of space to work with and I already got a 2x4 ebb flow with 20 clones already growing in there well I do this all off my sidekick celly so no pics right now but when I stop being washed and go to a friends with a computer ill get some pictures up for all yall [hehe] to see.
Hey Father time glad you like it mate
1toke thanks for posting up your system..is it a plain bubbler? Looks like you have modified her there??
Ganjajedi lets see some pics of your bubbler when you get a cam sounds like you got it sorted there..glad my thread is of help to you..
Anyway heres the SB clone shes comin along nicely very compact..iv never vegged a plant for this long before and i would expect her to be bigger but this plant is so compact iv had to remove some leaves to stop her strangling herself..she will be goin into flower very soon. She seems to like the nutes with the cf dropping down to around 10 after a couple of days shes back up around 15 now..the roots seem to be loving the Senzi-zym even at a lower rate i prefer to use this to the Canna-zym due to the fact that if the nute solution wasnt changed after a couple of weeks the cf was flying right up.
Though slower than the root growth iv seen from other strains it has taken off and is lookin very healthy after adding the Sensi-zym..full strength should produce some excellent results i recommend this AN Sensi-zym i cant fault it in anyway..yet!! lol heres the bush
shes a fair bit bigger than this now this pic is about a week old now...il update when i go into flower...lots more to come im doin a full bubbler run under my 600hps including multiple clone buckets..il post up full details when the buckets are ready...any questions or comments fire away...peace
Hey Sleepy thanks mate...im not sure about a massive yield being BOG's Sour Bubble but il see what i can do, its the first time iv grown her out or any of BOG's stuff
Dr. D, this is an excellent thread, thanks very much for the info given. Looks like you've had some excellent results from these buckets, I've recently got a wilma system but i think i might make one of these to go by the side. I'm just wondering where you got your materials from (I'm in the uk also) Have seen most of the materials on progrow, comes to about £25, is this comparable to what you spent? it did include one of those silent air pumps.
Hi professor Mc Skunk welcome to ICmag...most expensive thing i bought was the pump for about £10, everything else i try and find as cheap as possible..airstone is around £1 the original bucket was also £1..im trying to find some buckets now for my next run..you shouldnt be lookin at anymore than £15 for a single homemade bucket thats half what it would cost you to buy the Oxy-pot bucket...peace
That really depends on the temp of your grow room..i find if the room is a good stable temp 22c-27c then the temp should be just right in your buckets..mine doesnt seem to go any lower than 16c in the bucket and i have no problems whatsoever...peace
just wondering ,can you have too much air bubbling inyoure rez Im thinking a couple of air stones to turn the water into a rabid frothing air rich nute mix
what my stoned mind is trying to say is can you damage yore roots wich to much bubbling or is it a case of the more the better/
cheers
