Aero Cab: Part Deuce

Whats up RIU! My name is Burns, this is the second round for my aero cabniet. 1st round went well I finnished out with 14zips with 12plants of Grape Ape. Not the greatest but definitely not the worst. It was a great learning experience as the first round was my first indoor grow ever. (first journal, still learning the in's and out's)

So a little about the cabniet and Part Deuce...

- I am running a 20plant DIY Aero/nft system.
- 1000w hps
- 8000 btu a/c
- GH 3part Nutes with diamond nectar and kool bloom.
- 10 Grape Ape's
- 10 Cali Orange
Whatever else you wanna know just ask...

Now to the Pictures...

Pic 3 = Day 8 18/6 (plant level view)
pic 4 = Day 8 18/6 (overhead view)
Pic 5 = Day 8 18/6 (Root Porn)

Smoke break be back in a few to upload pics of week 1 12/12

Week 1 of 12/12 (Day 20)

Everything is going very well so far this round, now to the point i check the plants 1 time a day just to check ph and clean the filter to the sprayer. Ph is pretty consistant, i dont have to add too much if any ph down, the whole prosess take about 5 mins at the most a day. I would feel totaly confident to leave this system alone for 3/4 days if needed.FINALLY!!! First go around i was afraid to leave it alone for 2 hrs.
