Back with a vengeance

OK I had to rebuild everything from the chopped up system that I had perfected in my greenhouse and pole barn..

Most certainly smaller and very crowded now compared to the warehouse feel I had before.

But in a much safer environment.

I have stuffed six Botanicare 4x4 tables in this lil room down from two rows of 4 with eight before.

Same principle applied, I will construct my rings for proper and even flow tomorrow.

Just trying to hustle things along and get these clones going for my patients

Things are a bit grubby but I'll be scrubbing with a brush and bleach as I progress...not to worry the internals are all scrubbed and sterilized.


Gonna order some 1 1/2" Uniseals tomorrow for the tray to drain pipe seal as the current configuration has a leak in tray 1 .

I love Uniseals,,,,,,


She runs 24/7 with a 3 speed grundfos circulating pump
 
plumbing is schedule 40 pvc
3/4 supply
1 1/2" drain (return)
1/2 " air

Stock tank is 100 gal
Grundfos pump draws from it
a jet of water is directed towards the inlet riser
air is oxygenated here and with an 8" airstone
in the center of each table which is submerged.
 
I can't upload anything without a failure error...

Not sure what is going on but this sucks....
 
as always you gonna get er done................

I could see you in there with a lab coat like Simon Barsinister (Underdog cartoon) takin' care of business........

look forward to more.........all the best in a safe grow amigo................
 
a nice clean looking set up Cabby. My tray system was a proto type from years ago, but that metal support system looks almost the same as mine, so do the trays.
Grow on Cabby.

What strains? I enjoyed your BBNL for a long time Cabby, one of the few herbs that enhanced my dart playing. It made a great hybrid with SSH, albeit a little foxtaily, BBNL added a great depth of flavor.
 
Thanks a bundle guys..
Actually she's a mess right now but I'm working to get her cleaned up
Work keeps me so busy I barely have time..

I'm actually keepin it very small scale with regards to numbers
6 trays with 4 gals per ....24 total..

But I'm gonna let em get knarly and trellis the whole damn thing into
two hedge rows...

My patients are very sick so I'm really under pressure, 1 with terminal cancer
has been worsening...I'm sick thinking about it .

Had to go acquire CBD capsules last week to keep the cells from replicating.

I'm convinced that the combination of THC and CBD is the proper symbiotic
pairing for proper healing ..

Rick Simpson never used much more than old indicas and had super results.


It's a work in progress

I'll keep it coming


My pic sizes were too large ,,dohh! yes I'm that busy I missed it..

Funny you say that as I have plans for Ol Sog's SSH cut to be hit be this
OTM X Indiana Bgum male that i Have ...

They do make great breeders..

If I recall that supposed story of Bubba Kush is IBgum X an OG kush ...
I never really believed it until I played with some Katsu Bubba S1's I made
and I'll be damned if I didn't have a few rare OG Kush phenos show..

It was a long time ago and I had never ran an OG Kush at the time and I was amazed at the lil massively chunky golf balls with huge calyxes phenos ..


I was thinking "good god what the hell is this freak "

Now they are the norm....
 
OK I gotta get back to work
be back tonite...


Ohhh if you havn't watched "Unbroken"

PLease do yourself a favor.....

watch it !!


A stellar life... what a movie and a book...

Angelina Jolie may as well quit acting because that movie was directed by her
it was that good ....


You can stream it and watch it from putlocker...

just be patient and keep closing all the pop ups that initiate as you start it ..

then hit the full screen option and enjoy....
 
Trying to get a lil time to fix a flaw in the system...


Uniseals arrived today ..

1 1/2" returns are gonna get repaired properly.
I hate leaks...

Old SOG's SSH cut for those asking...

This is what she looks like...

Amen....

Here's to no more leaks....

I always drill a 1/4" hole low on the coupling to allow the tray to fully drain to the waste
when I open the main dump .

This allows me to do complete reservoir exchanges or cleaning at the end of a flower cycle.

Uniseals kick total ass and are the end all be all when it comes to proper
builds with hydroponic systems.

Just always be sure to do three things...

cut a reverse chamfer on the sharp 90 degree edge of the pipe you cut and intend to push through
the uniseal opening. (make it a taper)

Always spray the inner uniseal and the pipe with a soapy solution before assembly.

Always set you pvc cleaner and cement far away from you as you will always manage to knock
them over and spill that shit everywhere ....
