sorry man. i have read the thread.

i havent seen good pics of how you make the rings or their attachments,material brands or descriptions. the picture you took of the rings is pretty hard to see joiners, plants base, etc thats all.

time appreciated man

thanks man. i have like 4 big batts of flockwool in storage.

wanted more detail because i may do a run like this to use it up. so you poke all your holes and never had any issues otherwise? like cloggin or uneven water distribution?

what made you stick with your relfectors?

have u ever considered the canadian medical tree lay out? bare bulbs, checker board etc? or long isles of lights vs bulbs?

thanks for the tip about electrical tape safety measures,

Very nice grow mate, some great skills. If I could find a UK supplier of the flockwool then I would try it as the medium in my 5" net pots in my NWT system.

Don Juan, are you saying that you simply buy rockwool insulation and use that?

Also how high are your ceilings?
