Stinkbud,

I finally got throught page 130 and decided I am ready to start the build. One question: Should I add 1/2" and 1" to all measurements before cutting? The plans do not account for the 1/2" telescoping when attaching each part.

For example; when building the veg unit "H," it specifies 7-7" pieces, but in the schematics it measures 7" between the "T's." I can either re-cut and allow for the extra 2" on each side (thus cutting 8" pieces to account for the 1/2" on the endcap and 1/2" for the "T") or drill holes 3" apart rather than 3 1/2." Does any of this matter? Thanks again to all for your help.

I didn't add the 1/2" when I built my cloner and it works fine.

Also many people have made the modifications to put the reservoir under the rails. You should hop on over to stinkbuddies.com as stink and the gang are over there now.

Thanks Dirrtyd, any idea if someone modified the res tank and got it to work by placing it under the main structure rather than at the end?

Yes, I did raise the whole unit to fit over the tub due to size issues. I DON'T advise this! It makes it too hard when cleaning and checking the nute/p.h. levels.

how do you guys avoid algea bloom with the open top on the containers for the bloom phase... and the nutes just waterfalling back into the tub?

I don't think they have much of an algea problem since they change the nute solution every three weeks, and, I think, the water is supposed to fall back into the resevoir, since, it is a recirculating system.

We are all over at "Stinkbuddies.com", if you need any more assistance.

CYA There!

other than nutes...

is there any kind of medicine... like peroxide, aquashield, etc... that people run to keep plants safe?

My plants all stopped growing the past couple days, and im trying to figure out whats going on.

Is there something i should be doing to protect the roots?

Thanks for the link rg421, Im unable to register there.

Love this thread, I've never grown before but will certainly be doing this setup just gathering all the info before jumping in and spending alot of £££.

Skunk can you please break down the electrical side of all the components needed in this setup in abit of detail, like a list with make and model and perhaps links to suppliers, I am in the uk so I will be looking here for components once I know makes/ models.

If anyone else can help will be much apprieciated.

Skunk I know you have 2x 1000w hps lights and would have prefered 4x 600w for better spread of light also you mention how important good lighting is so a link to your ideal model of light would be great.

Personally I think im going to make my own ballasts and possibly reflectors rather than buy the all in one grow light packages which are about £100 for 600w ballast/reflector/bulb which to me dont look that great. so yeah more info on electricals of this setup would be great.

Thanks again.

I have a question, I just transferred my clones to the veg unit. My PPM is 1750 and the PH is 5.9. I wanted to know if it's normal for the plants to wilt? They have only been in the veg unit for 1hr and there wilting at the top.

Your PPM is too high to start off your clones. If you read StinkBud's instructions, you will start to clones off with 500 PPM of nutrients the first week, bump it up to 1000PPM the second week and 1500PPM for week 3. You started vegging at 1750 PPM is too high. The PH is ok though.
