HI

I've never ran under current "yet"

I'll be here sitting on a bucket

Hey now that is a beautiful room and design my friend! That's the exact same direction I'm going to create mine. Very well thought out. I use bio buckets, and would be perfect for what I'm going for. Good job.

And what is that you have on the walls and how much does it run? Also were from?

 

[St3ve]

looks nice and clean man, good luck.

I myself ran an almost identical (albeit homemade) system for around 10-12 full runs.

Running UC since almost 3 years,imho the best advise i can give is keep your EC(ppm) low.UC system are very well know to need less nute,i drive my system at around 1 EC (500ppm)and let my PH drift between 5.5~6.0.

Its called sunfilm. You can get it at hydrobuilder.com. It runs around $100 for a 4x50 roll. Highly recommend this product

How often do you have to feed? How often do you change the water? I am looking for a less time consuming way of growing and this was the exact system I was looking at purchasing just now. I will be using GH nutes as well.

I've been growing for years. All facets except vertical. This is the easiest prebought system I've ever used. Its made fairly well and the biggest issue I've had with it is that the clones need a very healthy established root system before placing into this system. And that was purely lack of knowledge for the system, not the system itself. If you have all the proper accessories(chiller,phmeter) its a breeze. The daily maintenance is basic. Its literally look at the numbers on the wall. If they are within certain parameters I don't need to do shit...

Beautiful setup! But I hope you're not going to veg for too long. That space is going to fill up QUICK.

I can't wait to see this in action.
I just bought a undercurrent system and I'm trying to figure out what nutriants work best for me.
I have one grow under my belt with this system,and to tell everyone the truth it did not turn out that good,I had massive plants but the plants were so brital,and branches snapped like nothing.
Need some help the right nutriants to use,I was use GH flora series 3part,anybody have any segestions on nutriant regement for veg and flower.
I'm growing a 8 to 9 week strain

 

[overbudjet]

Si (silicon)is what you need for your snapping issue,i use it when i grew sativa (tall and prone to break)!For nute i use FN bloom in veg and bloom,liquid and powder koolbloom

 

[nkatadelgormo]

After about 2 weeks i had 3 runts that were replaced by some pcg girls scout cookies. Here is after 42 days in veg. They will be placed outdoors for the summer harvest. Blue dream grew over 65 inches.

 

[nkatadelgormo]

The plants are not going outside. There are too many awesome ones already. These were chopped down to 28 inches and set to 12/12.
Before chop 65 inches
After chop 28 inches
