Learning curve if full effect....

I need to flip the lids to act as a catch try..

A little fine tuning and I think it's good to go.... Nice...
Getting tired of working on it... lol

Thats the last time I use these stupid things...

This I believe is whats giving my F13s a hard time....

Should be better now that they are in AirPots...


I vibrated the shit out of the pots as I went,
filling every little space with a coco/perlite/turface mix...


This build took a lot of energy and time and I'm
starting to think I over complicate things....

Cutting the rings off the feed lines...
I have enough water pressure for cut ends...

Im seeing that I don have a whole lot of room for growth...

Which is ok yet going to be interesting over the next
few months keeping them trimmed short...:blowbubbles:

Just seems like this build took me
a lot longer than it should have... :shucks:

:bandit:
I got to get these healthy and happy
so I can take some tops and sex the clones...

Think I'll take tomorrow off from building... :friends:

Or I could "Keep it simple" and flip the lid,trim some tabs and let it rip.



Works great except im not sure about the volume of watering in a 1 minute period... Really is quite a bit... I may try both levels on one pump or I may need to get a couple smaller pumps or I could just pull the trigger as is and see what comes of it...

IDK...






They look happy...:dance013:

I ordered up 25 more 1L Air pots and started a 36 hour soak on 45 beans..




Im going to put 30 air pots and as many 1 gal smart pots as
I can in a pool and flood the pool to feed the pots...
Everything filled with turface... Veg everything up a month or so...
Take clones and put them in urinals around the outside of the pool using 1/4" feed lines to pulse or flood feed each and flower them out..

Pull the males and find 2 keepers of each strain...


Also got 1000 ph test strips...
No calibration needed...lol

I've been thinking about going back to strips... no matter how much I spend on a meter they're all shit. Then again I almost never check pH anymore... PPKs FTW.

Looks good AD... wanted to make sure you knew I was still watching.

Click to expand...

I hear ya with the meters.. Figured my $ would be better spent on air pots..
I like to test my ec & ph the 1st week or so then I tend to not worry/check, about either unless the plants show stress..

Glad to know your watching,SA. ..
I got a feeling this is going to be an interesting season.
I'm going to have around 60+ plants for a couple month's
then I will dwindle the selection down to about 20 keeper's to play with this season..
By summer,I'm hoping for 6-12 moms total and
2-4 pops to work with next year.

Stay tuned ...:blowbubbles:

Turns out a float valve is useful to keep enough water in the lower tote to pulse the uppers without running out...

I added the pulse pump and am now pulsing both
levels at 1 minute every 90...

Even before the pulsing these ladies are looking way happy and now all I need is the Growth rates that the PPK should give me.

Needs to get moving here if im going to fit 2 waves in before summer...

Ive got quite a nice selection of strains going,
yet none are known for having heavy yields so if im
going to get 3 lbs im going to need 2 wave and a ton of clones.

So the pool is looking good,though needs about an inch more turface to get the correct flooding level....

It take about 2 minutes to reach equilibrium & drains in under a minute...

I cant pull enough water yet to empty the bottom pool yet once I get more turface screened & washed the 2 pumps will be more than enough.




Ive add the jacks and other good stuff and will be using the 300 LED to veg the 45 seeds im popping...

:woohoo:
