Water/Air pumps speed

[cannatastic]

nice budz canna ill man up and say it u proved me wrong im impressed. do u have a pick of all the plants preharvest in the tub full grown. i fuckin love hash. i still think it is not bad to have extra air and a quality pump or atleast a back up. but to each his own i used to grow in a 50gal tub years ago and got great harvests but i also had 1000w and tons of air. anyway congrads on the harvest what whas the final numbers like.
some old pics of my giant rubbermaid grow
56gal 10plant



peace

I'll do a grow journal of what I've got standing at the moment, did'nt take a pic this time because they looked shit, the 8 day clones pictured earlier in the picture tried using Hesi earth nutrients and it's shit, they were all yellow and just could'nt take it up. I've got 45 plants in 6 x 65 litres containers, recycling with a seventh container as a controller. And powered by a 60 litre p/m airpump some containers have 4 stones some 3 and one has one big. I've thought about dosing Co2 through the pump as it is easily calculated when you know you've got 60 litres p/m going in. But again, so what that they are massive when you know they're going to rot on you. I got 0.66 gm per watt without trying with 6000 watt, the quality and price far outweighs the quantity.

Mine is ready in 6 weeks flowering, got two old mothers about 1.2meters high in the pots standing at the moment hydro fed. I bought an old house especially for my grows and it's mouldy, had outside temps down as low min 30 and you can guess the damage I've done with condensation, my first couple of grows are needed to put a new roof on. The place now is hanging with mold outside of the grow room, But I've started using an anti funghus in the water along with pesticide (at a level that you can spray a hectacre with) doe'snt help against top rot and my climate is considered perfect. found only two spots the size of a US quarter this harvest (just in time as it spreads like wildfire)
I'll share some expertise, to totally rid the place of spint use household fly spray (I'm in it for the money, so don't jump me with organics) synthetic Pyrethine. The same to rid a grow of Sciard fly, use the same Pyrethine shit that is used for agricultural crop spraying and mix it as for a spray in with you feed(terra flores). My plants seem to love it.

1 watt( air pump wattage ) per gallon is real nice imho

Canna,

Hello and how are you?

What is your relative humidity? Do you use fans for circulation?

I'm wondering why all the mold.

peace

I'm fine thanks. The mold is outside of the grow room. why so much mold is because I was exhausting into the attic in the winter, which then condensed ran down onto the wall plate and when it thawed ran down soaked the wall, now it's nice and damp and warm. Inside my room I keep around 50-60% the top rot I think is because I have my lamps (Greenpower CG 600 watt) almost on top of my plants 25- 30 cm's. and think it must be the heat. I use Bayer pervicur against funghi mixed for tomatoes on mineral wool, give them a dose of that and you'll see a big difference the next day. I thought it was only leaf and bud mold you had to worry about but it's not your plants are being attacked by loads of different funghis that you can't even see or thought were there.

Hey, i've been doing dwc now and so far got no problems except the fact that my air stone gives less air than the air pump itself so i was wondering if i could use only the air pump, dunno if the excess of air on a single air bubble will harm the plants root and also the vibration of the bucket.
