Time to build something to clone in! I'm going to keep it relatively simple and just top feed a few 5.5" pots and let them drain to waste. Input will be 300 ppm jacks at the usual ratio. I am not sure what kind of pulse I should do. I can't quite flood it with the pump and materials I have laying around, so I think I'm going to pulse a few ounces every half hour or so. Anyone have any advice there?
I'll put some pics up once I get it built and some cuttings planted. I get to go wash a few bags of 8822 now. (feigning excitement)
dude, you're slackin'. 39 posts, 11 more an you get PMs..
don't kill yourself washing that 8820, soon as it dries out it powders up, some, again, never stops, just add more.. but it is cheap and works well. I made a sieve box from 1" x 3" pine with 1/4" screen for after harvest. dump harvested ppk media (8822 or MVP) into the box that is suspended over a yard wheel barrow, media goes thru roots (most) stay at screen.
EDIT: Sorry, like this: it also has 5, 13/16" holes (nothing scientific) drilled in the bottom, each hole covered by a 2 inch square piece of screen and an abundant amount of GOOP holding each in place, allowing for the media to drain/dry out but will fill the barrow with water submerging all the media with inches of water (with dead/dried material floating) that is tipped forward draining out dirty water and dead stuff (roots mostly).
