No rice hulls this time in with the turface?
dear srgb people! thank you for your gracious offer to remove your posts from this thread. i will accept that offer without rancor as i feel it is out of place on this thread where i'm trying to answer questions regarding our device. perhaps sometime in the future we can collaborate.
thank you!
This reminds me of BigTokes biobuckets in a way that the system is pretty much recycling much in the same way and storing beneficial bacteria in the medium as the each pulse activates and drains into the bottom chamber and I am sure this is why you can run this system at such high water temps also there is so many BB teaming in the medium after so long. Also I am sure running a perpetual will only progress the already evolving BB in the system.
That was so cordial I want to vomit. A guy could learn a thing or 2 about a thing or 2 here.
puke in the ocean, not the fucking boat.
i would take folks out on my boats. as big and tough seafarers they all swore they did not get seasick.
yet as soon as we hit rough water they would start turning green and getting glassy eyed and i would look them straight in the eye and say, "don't puke in the fucking boat, puke in the ocean", whereupon they would lose it and immediately puke in the boat. goddammit!
arrgh! hosing puke out the scuppers!

You've got me thinking I should build a few PPK's and run them next to the Float Valve system after I develop my first working models...
My lil beach shack`s 400+ mi. away from the farm D9 , but the older I get the more it calls to me.....and....hey fred! wassup!
i'm nowhere near the coast but i went into a little cafe the other day and they had a cajun chef working there. his specialty was shrimp gumbo and it was outrageous! he's gonna whip up a batch of crayfish etouffee' soon!
man, i miss the ocean!
D9 since you're pulse watering to the capacity of the top container are you just using your timer cut off point for control then adjusting the on time down as roots fill the container to prevent a flood? Or is that not an issue?
While the Great Lakes aren't quite the Gulf... Or wherever it is you may be... I can handle some swells. I promise not to in the boat. But can I PLEASE drive? I promise to stay between the buoys!

My bulldawg get`s PISSED when he hasta go back home , so I`ve been getting all my veggie crop plants in the greenhouse ta harden off till after good Friday , then we plant and the old man down the road`s gonna tend the livestock and the garden , and I`m headed back to the Salt Life......
Number 1 son can feed the dawgs , and my place is rented out for spring break , but I might get a wild hair and go back week after that and say fuck after good Friday plantin.......
Old man get`s paid so he can plant maters and taters , peppers , corn and such other shit........Talk about missin the gulf......and hey.....Fuckabuncha ralphin and blowin chunks on the deck of my boat.......
I keep a 500 count bottle of Dramamine in the head for pussies that can`t hang , but it`s amazing what good dope does for nausea huh ?......
Puke on my deck and yer cleanin up yer own shit....bet on it....now...D9......I really like the triangular placement of the tailpieces as I`m so sure they serve to lock the upper container down in the bucket below to hopefully prevent any plant tipping or fallin over right ?........but.....
I `ve preached it from the get since krusty beat it into my head many yrs ago......Staple yas some chickenwire to the ceiling to open up and support all the heavy ass limbs/laterals that yas can`t get pinned back to your bondage screen behind.....
Overkill`s under rated , unless yas already got a game plan on howta tend and hold them heavy bitches up in late bloomage....and if so....disregard last suggestion........otherwise....getchas some damn chickenwire.........
Gladta see the larger top feed along with faster drainage , I`m sure the plants will respond accordingly........every 30 minutes huh .......Surely big things are on the horizon with this bastard plant killer that defies all laws of hydro culture....anyways.....
Deleted all posts but the first one with SRGB cuz I think it has merit , but say the word and I`ll get rid of that one too......I respect SRGB , I was only trying to point out things he obviously overlooked about your evolving device.......regardless.....
Peace....Freds...........

"just using your timer cut off point for control then adjusting the on time down as roots fill the container to prevent a flood?"
this one.
no, really it's no big deal! i just watch it flood once in a while and turn the time down slightly. remember we also have valves to adjust relative to each other.
wow! how did get i neg rep from this?
