Secrets... It's all pretty simple. Jacks, tap, coco, ph 6.3 (w/out adjusting), wick, drain buckets, dosers, sterile, mainline = HUGE FUCKING PLANTS.

hey Super....you said ask, so i'm askin! I've been reading up on the PPK systems as that is the direction i'm going. I'm a novice when it comes to growing but ive been building(contractor) for 30 years. In my quest for PPk knowledge i stumbled onto your thread, and im very interested in the vert radiused scrogg you where showing...would you mind giving a more in depth start to finish explanation so that a new guy can come correct the first time???
Hey Super do I need to answer that lmao BWaiting on my order!
Ohio...
I'm still here.
Well said.
Thank you!

Buddler, what can I help you with? I am happy to help!
Awesome info SW!!! Appreciate the knowledge shared among us.
I've been reading about ppk for the longest.Delta and other's grow journals are no doubt helpful,but i am still lacking the fundamentals of running a 30 plus pot setup.Not even sure if it's even doable.I too would like to dump the nutes in a reservoir and go on vacation ...
Superweed!!!!
thanks!
thank you superi appreciate both your time and knowledge. I also appreciate your pm offer but at the rate i'm posting.....
not trying to reinvent... just out of curiosity!! would would be the advantages/disadvantages of doing two plants with 16 sites each covering 180* of cage???
Hey Super do I need to answer that lmao B
well said.
only thing I still need to learn/understand is par measurement. any suggestions on a good meter?
Long time lurker, first time posting. SW, I am very interested in your setup.
I have participated as a passive partner in a venture that has ultimately failed and gained nothing but some equipment. My hope is that you can supply a list of necessaries to get started with my own PPK to duplicate with around 6 plants instead of 12 or 24.
Currently, I have a bunch of lighting and other stuff which includes one 1kw hood and ballast, 400w hood and ballast, 357w LED light, 10 5.8gal air pots, simple digital timer and some seeds.
Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!
In the past I have tried putting a CFL around a plant like you described but for some reason it is a start to a slow death for me....wonder why?You know, at one point I had built a tiny cage and had my SuperMom around it, with a cfl hanging in the middle. She grew so bushy, so fast, that I had to leave her off to the side in low light conditions, to slow her down. I was only there two days a week, max. Noone else was allowed to touch her, lol!
Point - this method can be done on a small scale with any bulb that can be hung vertical.
Cmon SW its time to show some more of your secrets . Bud

Do your leaves start showing signs of dying when you do that?
Hey SuperWeed, this thread is quickly becoming a super thread.
I hope I can pick up all your laying down.
Just wondering if you have some more pics of your production moms.
I understand the process. I've used the technique outside in the bush to increase root mass and not so much to separate off individual branches.
I know it's probably tough to get a clear pic of all that is going on. Is the mom in the middle with pots all around to start the branches in? You must train the mom for awhile first to get several branches about the same size?
I like your simplistic methods that are pure genius.
Peace GG
AHHHH look what i found..... awesome thread...... I use to read overgrow religiously i never grew then or posted but i was a super lurker..... Back in a time when all things CANNA were taboo..... that was so sad so very sad at the time there was no other internet outlet like OVERGROW that i ever knew of..... all that knowledge and information lost that was a big setback for me and a huge setback for all things CANNA in America, Im now doing with Ic Mag what i wanted to do with Overgrow all those years ago. I have a great mentor and friend helping me and keeping me straight lmfao.... and several digital friends advising me and pulling for me. what a great way to learn and grow with these magical plants....
