I changed from veg to flower and started flower at about 250ppm on 700scalemaxed at about 650-700. 700 is to much imo

That’s crazy, since a lotta people push to 1200, though RDWC def is lower. Are you running the CO2?

The highest I go is just over 1000, but not in bloom, I always prefer a sweeter weed to a few grams extra.
PS thanks for the replies, still going through them as well as looking at another location where we might be able to build from the ground up to best practice standards as being applied in legal US states. Just waiting on the latest brief,but trying to get re4ady before the expo

No change outs since starting flower? WHY? What are you saving? I change every Saturday, rain or shine! You know, like Current Culture tells you to!
My res is as large as my system and I have a doser, so I only HAVE to go out there every Saturday, but it's in my backyard so I visit the girls 3-4 times daily.

They want you to buy more nutrient. Mine drink about 50 gal every 2 days. Maybe I'll try ch as being out more next run.

Quick question. Why did you choose to go with 1/2 chiller coil vs 3/8? I'm trying to put together my final design. How are they working? Do you have a flow meter hooked up? I'm curious what flow rate I'm going to need for my 12 bucket (13 w Rez) 12gallon (prolly 8-9 of liquid) rdwc...pump size wise. What pumps are you using? I accidentally ordered 50ft of 5/16 coils..ugh. Too small I think, but might still work. I have 4 sites total, 2 coils per chiller.

Yeah I’ve yet to understand how the wort chiller works in all of this myself. Like on what side of the water flow etc

I think I'm good. I rmbr why I went with this one. Here's a pic of the specs, not to mention the $70 dollar savings per coil. I think I'm good. .I hope so. Lol

Yeah I just meant, does this allow you to use a weaker water chiller and get the same effect? Like is that the purpose? Or, am I just lost. Haha

Then again....more surface area of the coil would cool the Rez better I'd think,,but the 5/16 is thinner for a quicker chill...So is it a "wash" and I should just stick with the 5/16 since it's already been ordered from Amazon? I'm Confused again. Ugh

Because passes water thru easier. 3/8 just seems small. J don TV uh se a meter. 1800 gph pump supplying a manifold with 3 25ft coils

You cool a tank of water then run that cold water thru the chiller coil which is in epicenter removing the heat

I would think so. Since I'm cooling 2.5 systems with one the recommend for 1. Will see what summer says. Easy in the winter.

The main purpose is to cool multiple res with 1 chiller

25ft? Not 50..
