The easier way to do this is to use a big bucket outside the tent and a small pump to transfer water to totes in the tent. Neither method for dwc is easier than an outside control bucket. I want to play with undercurrent, but that amount of water circulating makes me a little leary as I don't have a floor drain.... That volume of water could do some damage. Anyhow back to maintenance. The longest I can go with not topping off dwc totes is 2 to 4 weeks depending on growth stage. The trick with that is using minimal ppm for feeding. Overfeeding can lead to ph and ppm fluctuations and lockout issues when plants drink less than they eat. Aeroponics on a 4x4 table with a 27g res can only go for 3 days before needing 5 to 10 gallons of water added.

WISDOM

I have developed a twist on aero that many could find helpful

Week 6 has came and went. The girls are getting top heavy! Branches are bending and falling over. The plan is to cut some aluminum fence material and hang it up as a late bloom scrog net. The hulk smash plants seem to favor the og side of the family. Lots of golf ball nugs with space between them. Amazing density though! Hulk smash number 4 really smells of limes with a hint of funk. I'm glad I took a cutting of her and given her a second chance. Zero nanners or hermie issues this time. Orange glues are the biggest looking plants in the tent this go around. Orange glue #2 is my favorite. She has the best density, vigor, and smells like Orange and fruity pebbles right now. Only downside with her is a 3 or 4 nanners showed up in week 6 this time. Minor issue in my opinion. The Orange glues are starting to fade already. Purple and red hues are showing up more and more on the leaves and calyxes. They may finish up by week 8 but I'll run them a little longer to let some amber tricomes get in the game. Here's how the ladies look as of 2 days ago.

I'd say no to installing any kind netting at this point, this far into flower.

Next time.
