Well it didn't take long for the 1st bump...

Looks like my timer didn't want to turn off after the next
flooding...
So when I woke up the pumps
had been gong for 6 hours straight.

Hows that for a flood.



Not much water outside the pool.
Maybe a gallon..

I didn't notice that i had not changed the
original over flow pipe to the straight pipe.

This elbow allow a splash and drip
which bounces outwards.

Not much yet it had 6 hours to add up...





On the positive....

Look how clear my res water is now.... :woohoo:

Taking clones a new way...

I pre cut the lower leaves and try to take 6"-9" cuttings.




I also took the top and then lower 6" of one plant and am trying a couple different ways...

My old cloning tech. Dome,heat,rockwool...
As well as the new tech. Cut,trim, place, wait...

I dip all in rooting power,though it's most likely not even needed...

I cut the bottom at an angle and scrape up a good 2"...



I then place the cutting as deep into Turface filled cups as I can.

I gave pool 12 hours off from flooding after the 6 hours soak this morning...

Back on 1 minute every 90 and running smooth.

Turns out my timer has a setting
I didn't know about and I set it to fk up
and that's what it did well...

Now its set to golden and better stay that way...

1 minute gets the water about 1/2 way up the cups and im thinking ina day or 2 I might bump it to2 minutes.

Depends on how the plants do...
If It aint broke I wont fix nothen...






The seedlings are all looking great BTW...

Today was a good bargain hunting day....


I stopped by ACE Hardware and asked for 3 pools..
They keep them in the back during the off season.

Didn't even notice till I was walking out but I payed $13.00 for all 3.

This makes 7 pools at my disposal...

Looking to run 2 flowering pools in the 4' x 8' tent and one veg pool in the 4' x 4' tent...

Looks like im going to give up the sub par long closet and crame the 4 x 4 into the room...



There are so many ways I could go with these 2 things..lol


I seem to have what im going to call my
Base kiddie pool system
Being the lower pool with a frame in it and a pool on top.

The top pool can be configured in many different styles as well as different mediums.... IMO at least...

Upgrading the top pot on the Germination/veg/mom/whatever Center...

Going with a bigger tote that uses every inch of space availible and adding a 2nd drain pipe...

I know duck tape does not block all the light
but in to lazy to paint the thing... :biggrin:



Then..
I may have simply smoked to much today but I saw this on sale and it screams wick for the piss pots...



$8.00 to find out... lol

Going to cut a strip and hang it touching the
water and see if it wicks well...

Maybe to much smoking today and I just wasted a few bucks...

Then again there is always camping..
Would be nice for those rocks spots... lol

...high bro, i took a look at how long this thread is and decided i'd just jump in and say hey rather than waiting until i'd caught up from the beginning, i can see reading this thread is gonna take some time, lol.

...so 'hey', lol.

anyway, the minute i saw this pic with the foam board on top i thought to myself, 'self, that looks perfect for a backyard Kratky setup'.

Kratky method

you got me thinkin' now, ...that could be dangerous, lol.

peace, bozo

Sounds were reading the same map and taking
Slightly different paths to get to them monster colas.

I'm shooting for:
From seed to flower pool in 1L air pots.
Needs to streamline and simplify
in order to conquer the complexities
of pheno hunting that 1 in 99 I'm after...

Sup Bozo. .

Yeah good luck reading through my 100+ pages and not
scratching a bald spot on your head..

What the hell?
Lol

Every time i look back that's
what I think after a couple pages..

Evolution rocks and there is a rhythm to the thread,
It just gets lost in the flow from time to time.

At some point I will find time to index
this thread and hopefully
make it more reader friendly ...:biggrin:


Isn't Kratky the same dude that grew a plant using a 55 drum.
Filled it with water, cut a hole in the lid and placed a small plant with the root just touching the water.

Came back like 90 days later and the thing was a monster.

The roots simply chased the water level down.
As I recall it drum still had like a 1/3 of its water volume.

Crazy shit that make ya think. .. Nice!!¡

From seed test.
Dry seed day 3.


I dug down for a peek.
Covered it back up and would
exspect to see something in 2-3 days.

I used 4 Sativa Locos for this test.

I was working on the Piss pots and placed them around the rim
of my all in one and it dawned on me...




This is the same foot print as my 300w LED about 2 x 3

These piss pots would simply have
lots of hole and turface filling in the spaces between...

Flooding the whole thing at once or each pot with 1/4" tubing.



Things to think about....
