75 dollars gets you a deck and patio kit with 12 blumat drippers. just make sure you get the deck and patio kit or the "tropf" as they call it in austria where they are made. there are only a few companies that import them so just look around. i believe i got mine at planet earth hydro online but sustainable village carries them online as well. heres a pic of the box as well as some of S@nnies killing fields grown out with blumats, coco and house and garden nutes

ive been thinking i want to build something lately so i think im either going to straight up build another of ticks sogg'n box or modify a dresser type piece of furniture into a stealth 250W or 400w grow just for fun. when my current run is done in 2 weeks i think i will start the build. i want to break a personal GPW record which shouldnt be too hard since ive been pretty low in the past lol. gonna run my full indica AK bitch single cola style SOG

[Desert Hydro]

heres a look at my bitches right now. the back three are FMS ak47 and the front three are FMS ww x bb. im keeping front right and left as well as back left plants. S@nnies gear is vegging and soon to take over my flower room im sure. his gear is always top notch. 2/3 of my ak's were hermies but they are still impressive plants none the less. i wish they werent because they are going to be such nice yielders :( i wasnt all that impressed with the supposed yield of the WW X BB. i will soon be ordering some of moscas gear. i hear very good things about his lines. these plants have been through a lot of crap. system changes, moves, and all kinds of other crap. perhaps they will perform better in coco next round. only time will tell

stay tuned for the herijuana and jackberry kushes. they should be straight FIRE!

Blumats are the shit

I have all my mothers on them and once a week i top off the rez and thats all i ever have to do

Been thinking about ditching flood & drain in the flower tent and going with coco and blumats

best...shit...ever

[bye1]

I like the sound about blumats and it seems the give fucking nice result.
want to try on a couple of plants this run.
How high above the blumat drippers do the res need to be?

Peace
are green

ive got a five gal bucket as a rez on my 2x4 veg tent and its about 2-3 feet higher that the drippers. i have a plastic shelving unit beside my tent and the res just sits on the top shelf.

there is a thread on here i believe its call the blumat auto watering thread or something like that. its like a hundred pages long lol. i read that bastard multiple times i shit you not and then placed my order and by the time they got here i knew how to do everything with them. theres even cool mods like quick disconnect fitting for the res so you can do clean outs and nute swaps and such.

oh and i HIGHLY reccomend drip clean from house and garden nutes. it works wonders for keeping the dripper lines from accumulating salt build up or clogs. it also keeps the medium free of salt build up as well. ive had to chop plants with no flush before and with the drip clean and a good cure no one even knew the difference

PS u should only run chem ferts OR plain water(if you run a prefertilized soil like moonshine mix) through them. organics have too many gunky formulas that easily clog the little drip lines

i am by no means the blumat expert around here but ive done a few rounds so if you have any q's please ask

been trying to dial canna a+b and calmag only with bulmats in coco.....trying to simplify as much as possible. Flavor is up as well as yeilds

proving to produce magnificent results. Highly recommended and keep in mind less is more with these things because the plants get water when they need it.

Canna needs to be dumped and refreshed every 5-7 days so I usually set the rez at the desired ppm and let it top off with ro till it gets to around half or 2/3 of what I started at. Dump it and mix a fresh rez.


what nutes is everyone else using with blumats?

I've been reading about the drip cleans and their importance... now is there anything else with the blutmats one should get right away. Can you get extra tubing more or less at a common store if you need it?

I'm running Canna A + B without the cal mag right now... plants are monsters after 10 weeks with these nutes.

the tubing is propietary and can only be gotten from them. the brown spaghetti tubing is the one you need extra of if anything. its nice to have about a foot of tubing on each dripper so you can move the pots around and what not but you can get by without the extra with good planning.





you can use any chemical ferts with these drippers. ive seen all kinds used. id like to try out canna but its kinda like buying seeds.... there are so damn many to choose from i feel lost.



i will say this though, if you are using coco you should stick with coco nutes. i still find myself adding calmag even to coco specific nutes
