Hi Folks,
I suffered PM on my last SCROG in this room so thought I would dismantle the SCROG trolleys to give the room a really good clean, it turned into a right pain dismantling them in a small loft space, so I thought fook rebuilding for the moment and try something new!!
So after a lot of humming and haring on what to get, I settled on the RTA system from Progrow,as have had great success in the past with Airpots but hand watering was a messy job. I love this system as it allows me to use my Topspin 12 site dripper system, and as a bonus I have managed to get hold of free the IWS Topspin Dripper Stand, which holds the topspin straight between the plants, as per picture.
The clever part about the system http://www.progrow.co.uk/acatalog/info_05220.html
Is the trays that hold the Airpots that drain into a brain bucket, which has a float switch that when the trays fill with water the bucket does to causing the float switch to activate a pump, which pumps the waste any where you want it, including back into the reservoir as re circling method. I have chosen to direct it into the outside drain running 20% waste. The kit contains 10 litre Airpots but the trays except 10 L, 15 L and 20 L which I have
but that's another day lol
Ok enough chat and on with some pics, these where taken today and the strains Killer Queen x 2 (front and back left), Psychosis (back centre), Psycho D (front centre), Pynamite (front right) and Bluejack (back right) where only put into flower yesterday. As you can see the Psycho D has been vegging longer than the rest and needed to flower, when the others could have had a bit longer, but that's when I thought "lets see what these Airpots can do" Hence the start pics. I did not want to veg the Psycho D any longer and did not want to put it in their in its own and hand water until the others caught up. The temps where a bit high due to ET05 Temperature plug failing and keeping oil rad on with lights on but its ok as in veg and have sorted it now
Thanks for looking, will update weekly.
