Funny thing, that's what I have under my trees I like the many trees one system better than the one system per tree, let's get Santa to show up a little early.

Peace,

big green- I've done a few grows with dutchy gold now and actually inspired onthedot to use it. I would def second his recommendation for big bud powder. def.!!!!1

Ya no rest for the weary, 5 weekends down and a couple more days to go. The thing is I love doing it!

Hopefully I will have a thread up soon and stop hijacking my buds space

Yo whats up guys.
L immortal I just took the "T" fitting off and put the 3/4" fitting on and run that right to the chiller and then cut a hole for the return line. Kind of the same thing but I had to cut a hole. I might change it to the way your doing it. The water pressure is working out fine with my 1/4 hp chiller. The only thing Im gonna try to do is move the chiller outside of the room like 6 ft away Im hoping there is enough pressure to push it that far.
Onthedot nice to see ya here. Im going to try running the pure flowers I read in the dutch masters gold thread that people are having great success with it so we'll see. Im also using the max and silica. For root health I added the zone but Im gonna ditch it and go back to aquashield with some hygrozyme. So far its been pretty stable I havent hooked up the auto top off yet so I can read the ppm and see what there liking. Right now we're at 480 ppm and a ph of 5.8 to 5.9 and there loving it. Ive been using the calculator on there sight just running it a little low for now Im gonna flush on Monday and push up the ppms to around 600 and see what happens. Good luck to everybody with there UC systems and we have to stick together to see how we can achieve the very best flavors and yield as possible with the system.

[Feijao]

I have been planning on getting the UC6 once I am legal which looks as though it will be next week, so I am trying to get all my ducks in a row. Anyways I wanted to ask if there is any problems with the roots going down each 2 inch pvc pipe? It seems that with the extreme growth of the roots in the UC system and the flow from pipe to pipe that there might be an issue. Doesn't look to be but just wanted to ask.

Great grow brother,
Feijao

 

[BigGreen]

Whats up all. The girls are loving it. I plan on doing a flush tomorrow and bumping up the nutes to about 600 ppm. I have some new pics for ya then but all I gotta say for the dmg is wow they love the shit.
Alphaguru I think I'll give it a shot next run Ive already gotten the pure flowers. The dutch masters gold is the shit Im getting mega growth after using it for 1 week and the ph has been at 5.8 5.9 the entire week I love the shit.
Limmortal I love them high ceilings you got there you'll be able to grow some monsters in there. High jack the thread all day I dont mind.
Feijao so far so good on the roots this is my first run with the UC so we'll see. But the roots are getting crazy big and fast.

 

[Hash Zeppelin]

"frostitute" = best strain name i've heard to date! hilarious

 

[BigGreen]

Pretty funky name hashzeppelin, mash up came up with it for me and I love it.
Well Im about to do a flush today and crank up the nutes they were all the way down to 360ppm and the ph is stable at 5.8. Im also gonna try to get a screen in there.
Heres some pics. The root porn will be the last because of the screen going in. Check it

Heres a little root porn. I still have 2 plants with a little tinge to em so Im ditching the zone and going to aqushield.















and heres the lovely ladies getting ready to be put in 12/12











There right on path to a great grow and Im pretty sure Im gonna smash it on the yields with the DM gold and the UC.

[One Love 731]

Wow were have I been, good stuff BigGreen, everything looks great in here. Karma One Love

 

[BigGreen]

Thanks fellow growers. But dont go anywhere soon this strain puts on a pretty good show in bloom. Im pretty pumped to see what shes gonna dish out in the uc. I gotta get a screen on em quick like yesterday but more likely tomorrow. I'll dish out some more shots after I get it in.

Roots are looking awesome and I did grab some aquashield just to be safe since you like it so much. It’ll run alongside the hygrozyme to keep the roots right.

For a second there I was like WTF when I saw your epicenter/chiller line setup. I must remember the 16XL has three pumps so the setup is a bit different.

How big is your “RO” filter? I got a stealth ro 200 and am way under powered for this room. May need to upgrade to the Merlin unit.

on a side not I got my atmospheric in today so hope to be up on friday, fingers crossed (og one came in with a bad sensor)

 

[BigGreen]

Yo limmortal my RO unit is 200 gpd I just keep my 55 gal drum filled up. I suppose you could get a couple drums. I havent even hooked up the auto top off yet so I can see what s what in the UC. I know later there gonna be chugging down a gal a day per plant so Im gonna need it. Get your thread up I wanna see.

 

[onthedot]

SHIT LOOKS DOPE! Look at 'em go!

 

[greenthumbnewb]

Get your thread up I wanna see.

i second that

 

[BigGreen]

Woo hoo got to get the trellis up 5 x 12 thanks to Hydrosun it was made very easy and cheap.
Thanks HS.
Well I have the ppms up to 750 and the ph at 5.7 we'll see if they can handle the higher ppms with DM gold. I flip the lights to 12/12 so its on. The rooms staying a steady 78f and the chiller is set to 66f.

Heres a couple pics of what I did today.



These 2 seem to be struggling a little bit they seem to be a little droopy Im pretty sure it from the little bit of icky left on the roots. I gave em a bath today in tap water and added the aquashield and hygrozyme so hopefully they perk up soon.

 

[onthedot]

1,000 pound harvest, early estimate but seems like it'll be close.

 

[BigGreen]

Well lets hope I can hit the 2 lbs per light. The way it looks is 8 zones per plant aint out of reach. Any advise there dothead. I just bumped them ppms right to were you advised lets see if they like it. This is what they looked like in a regular rdwc 20 inch donkey dicks all day 56 day 12/12

Shits gonna surely blow up kinda like this

 

[onthedot]

Ya got us all glued to the screen now buddy. I bet you get your 8 zones if you slap 'em with Big Bud powder.
