welcome to RIU, If interested------check out the thread in my sig A~~~

No medium---:clap::clap::clap: Many grows without any medium. Lots more about medium less water culture in my journal. A~~~

Ouch!!! --------terrible news tyy. No fun living under dark clouds. What are you charged with? I agree about the paid lawyer thing-----seems like justice in this country is proportional to how much you can afford. However; take a good look at the "early resolution" they may...

Thank you Michigan------what lengths? A~~~

Hey Budley, I think(?) you mentioned using 6" square pvc. If so-----can you say where you found it?------I've been looking for it. IMO, those 5" fence posts (GH aeroflow size) are too small for large plants. Wish I could find 6" wide x about 12"-16" deep. A~~~

This is why its difficult for me to believe those yields from your pics (hope I'm wrong). Two 10' x 4' sections---each under three 1000w hps air cooled lights on a mover. Yield was 24 zips per 1K-----now looking at those canopy pics-----to yield 3 lbs per 1K would be double the...

Are you claiming 3lbs (dry) per 1K in any of your pics? Granted----you have some decent looking stuff. A~~~

First grow ever-----:clap:. My first thought about "chemical burn" on the leaf tips and edges----nutes too strong----but 850 ppm---what conversion factor? Suggestion: Take sample buds at different stages of cloudy-----and find out for yourself which one you enjoy more. I haven't ever run LED...

Sup stink, Yea, I keep reading that but in my world if I don't use a dome (high RH) or mist the cuttings often first few days-----they just wilt and fall over. I agree about the warmer temps-----I shoot for around 78F. A~~~

^^Good stuff------used for years-----not organic. A~~~

Organic or synthetic nutes? A~~~

Absolutely--------Lots of examples (pics). Check out my journal (link in sig). A~~~

Sure, that would work but at vertical height expense. The pump will pressurize the feed lines-----if large enough (I have my doubts about a $20 pump). Here's a pic of one of my designs.

Inline pump is the better option because: 1) Less heating of the nutes. 2) makes is much easier to flush / reload nutes. 3) like r m m suggested-----waterfall. A~~~

What do you expect to improve using the substrate? A~~~

Hey tty, I'd like to see under the covers (root zone). Question: Why not remove the bottoms of the buckets? Impressive, A~~~

:o:o:o If not at the north pole-----care to provide details? What kind of lighting? A~~~

Well, that gets us in the ball park. Wouldn't be any fun to grab a fully fired up 1K HID bulb----ouch! IMO, heat removal is one of most difficult challenges we indoor boys face----especially south of Mason-Dixon. A~~~

Good info. If I understand correctly, and did the math right----that's .99 grams per watt (I think). That's very difficult with a 1K single ended hortilux. What is your estimate in terms of heat reduction comparing a 1K se bare bulb against your 900w module? A~~~

:clap:---------but didn't you mean "manicure all day"? I hope the next toy you buy is a good quality light meter (that measures at least 10,000 foot candles). I'm curious about the intensity your plants are receiving. Thanks for the pics, A~~~
