When the time comes I just pull them up out of the containers and move them into the flower room


Yeah I was wondering if you pull out the whole net pot with the plant, that is what i figured you do, or take the plant out of the pot.

I definatly think it is the first now that I really think it. So that means that from clone all the way to flower they stay in the same pot. Is that correct?

Boost bucket are great and work from everyone that I know that has one. If you have a smaller/ sealed room then for sure the boost bucket will do, can't say they are going to give you a steady constant output of co2 but you should make sure to have it hooked up to your light cause co2 is not needed at night. You would keep it on if you have all your units in one sealed room.

One of the handy parts of using the stink system, is you never have to transplant. Move the whole net pot to the next unit. And when you harvest you might be able to keep some net pots but the sleeves are one plant only

I have a question that might have been answered but here it is anyway. I recieved my clones in rockwool cubes and try to remove as much of the medium as possible without damaging the new root system but when the sprayers are on the rockwool retains the water obviously but is this going to give me root rot or overwatering? the tips are curling under after 3 days.

i leave mine in the rock wool w/no ill efects if your tips are curling up its to much heat
if they curl down to much nuites
hope this helps

If you use Neoprene sleeves, which I heard work really well for the aeroponic grower. Are they the same way where once the clone goes in it you just move the whole thing? How do Neoprene sleeves even look/work? Anyone with personal experience on that?
Thanks alot for any answers, just wanna make sure my baby girls get taken care of right.

I suggest reading a bit more of the thread.

The neoprene collar is simply a rubber\foam like material, the same material used in wetsuits. It not only keeps your sprayers from soaking your floor (sealing the unit) it holds your plants in place. As the plant grows, it will stretch and allow the stalk to take up the room it requires. Not rocket science :)

Again, spend some time reading the thread. Plenty of good info here. Enjoy

Using rapid rooter plugs, and or rockwool will not hurt your plants. I started from seed, with rapidrooter plugs. They just go right into the net pot. I've had no problems yet with using rapid rooter plugs in stink system.

I have 9 bubba kush plants 10 inches tall in a veg unit. They are not going into my flower room. OG kush will fill my next available flower unit.
I am thinking of taking all 9 of these bubba and ziptye them loosely together, bury them with there longass roots and stick them in a half wine barrel with foxfarm nutes, horseshit, and perlite. Water them with my reservoir changes and see what happends.

thoughts?

Here is how to do it...

Buy a large square pot. Fill the bottom about 1/4 of the way with Hydroton grow rocks. Put 4 1/2" pvc pipes in each corner of the pot running from the top to the bottom. These will let air down to the roots.

Cover the Hydroton with stainless steel window screen material. Now mix 1/2 good quality soil and 1/2 pearlite and fill the pot.

There you go...It's kind of a hybrid hydro system because the water drains so fast. You need to water everyday or have some sort of a sprinkler system set up.

Use the same nutrients that you do for your hydro stuff. Watering with your left over nutes works great!

The bigger the pot, the bigger the plant!

Have fun bro!

There are already some StinkBuddies trying the scrog method with success. They just tied up some netting to the supports.

How much higher does Co2 allow your temps to go? I'm floating at 76-80 degrees on average. Is it possible to run Co2 without the aid of AC? Just exhaust every few hours or so?

85 degrees is best with CO2. I tried running higher temps but my plants didn't like it at all.

Coleman makes a small propane heater called a procat.

http://www.coleman.com/coleman/colemancom/detail.asp?product_id=5053A751&categoryid=3000&brand=

It is a catalytic heater that is designed for inside use. Has a platinum catalyst to produce no carbon MONOXIDE, but all carbon DIOXIDE (CO2).

Opinions needed on if this will work in a small grow room, up to 8x8x8 (512 cu ft) and if this would be cheaper than using a CO2 tank. Puts out 3,000 BTU that I think can be offset by A/C.

TIA

No Way! The only way you could get away with using a heater for CO2 is if you live in Alaska and are growing in your garage in January.

Trust me on this, a CO2 tank is the only way to go, especially in the Summer!
