What’s up rollitupers

I have some really cool projects working and I figured I’d share some content with you guys,

The set up

2k Watts
(they are in about 3 weeks of veg right now some are even less )
Ushio MH 1000 bulbs
( these babies work great! I have hortilux blue bulbs, some cheaper MH bulbs and the hortilux duel arch bulbs and the Ushios seem to be out performing everything else!)

8x4 grow tent

Ebb and gro system by C.A.P
( Running 18 buckets )
I just picked this system up used for $200 cleaned it really good with bleach, replaced some fittings and grommets and she’s working like a champ!

Large exhale bags for CO2

Strains
Nirvana ice
Dinafem OG
TGA the grape inferno,
Fire OG
Snoop OG
Cuvée,
Gorilla glue #4
9# hammer

Once my cuttings take root and im able to fill my canopy in the tent I’ll turn convert the tent into my permanent flower room and I’ve already got a veg room built.

Veg room I’ll just be using a 8 bulb x4 foot t5 fixture in conjunction with some 300w leds for supplementary light
Using a home made Aeroponics system (similar to a NFT ) that I plan to convert into a hybrid drip system

Now I face my first issue with this grow, PM ! I’ve never battled pm before but I’ve done enough research to feel confident that I can defeat it, seems to but the from too low humidity because it’s the kind that you can see go air borne,
I had it pretty good in my flower room in the last 2 weeks of flower, I kept it in check for the most part with h202 and after harvest completly bleached the tent but it’s starting to resurrect.

My plan, add humidifier to tent for when the lights go off the humidity will maintain in my room with a rotating fan, and maybe even a space heater if necessary.
Treat with neem and baking soda (I hear baking soda Works well?)

Dig the homemade AeroFlo, much cheaper to build them yourself.

How does the water feed the plants, hence I dont see any line for that on the tubes.

The good thing in regard to the org. AeroFlo systems in my experience, is that you can buy spareparts for them, and use them in your own setup, eg the rubberseal for the 50mm drainage pipe, which is essential in my opinion.

I have made my own tubes several times like you did, using sewerpipes in 110mm/4 something inches.

The good thing when buying the spareparts for an AF is that you can build tubes from 40 inches long and all the way up to ten feet, pretty cool.

If you will allow ot, it can upload a picture in your thread of what I am on about mate.

Anyways, my two cents, your grow looks great mate.

Have a Mellow day...

Thanks for your input, of course you can upload your pics
I ran a my pump to a hose that’s connected to a manifold made from half inch pvc, which are located inside the black 4 inch PVC pipes with roughly 50 sprayers

Alright, update
A week ago I applied the baking soda mix to the plants and apparently they didn’t like it, seemed to burn the leafs a bit and left a residue, I’ve rinsed the leafs and applied neem oil (they looked kinda dry and pale)
I also set off a powdery mildew bomb that’s supposed to wipe it out so we shall see how they progress from here. I will update with pics of the ebb and gro ASAP but for now here’s a snap of the aero babies
