Thanks! Yeah, this is my first try at hydro and im lovin it:D I probably havent nailed it yet, but im tryin! Thanks for the comment!
 
Looking great TN. :aok: Not bad for your fiest time at water farming. ;) I think were gonna be giving it a shot here in the near future. :hubba:
 
Hey TN, I've been out of touch a little lately, but your grow is looking very good. Are your grow chambers actually filling and draining (ebb and flow) or is your system a "Drip" Hydro, not an ebb and flow?

Or is it a hybrid combination of the two where it drips AND fills and drains?

Good luck to you man! The plants are looking very, very nice.

Well Im glad you stopped in! Nice to have the approval of the hydro king himself too;)
I built a small "drip" system(1st pic-1st post) for veg, and an ebb&flow for flower. Two seperate systems..

PUFFMONKEY- My tray is only 7 inches deep(despite what stoney sais about shallow trays!:p)

TBG- I thought you'd dabbled in hydro before..you gotta try it man, it's nice.

Ahhhh, Grasshopper! You have learned well!

hehe, Here's the story on the roots; You have 7 inches. The top two inches normally would be root free if the starter was buried with the topmost part of it at two inches below the surface as it should be.

That leaves 5 inches of growth area for the plant. That isn't really a problem as long as the environment of the roots is as it also should be. No standing water after the draining and adequate oxygen with absolutely no light hitting the roots, ever.

If the root area is large enough to allow the plant to grasp enough media to support itself properly and/or ties are used for support to keep the plant stable, AND all the criteria above is correct, then your plant will be one happy camper!

If not, then adjust what needs fixing and again, your plant will be a harvest away from making you a happy camper!!!!

Good luck my friend. It's good to be back into the swing of things.

"wax on..wax off";) I learned from the best. ...and it IS campin' season...
Glad to know ya' stoney..:D
 
Nope never tried it before. We have a small system that we got off Ebay a few years back but never used it. I'm sure it will get used here in the near future. ;)
