Hey everyone… I been out of touch for a while..
Couple months back I finally made the milestone of moving out of my grow house… I started showing up couple times a week and ket forgetting to take pics before I left …once I was comfortable I was only coming once a week
At the beginning of the summer we were in a drought but that is now over so I have to come twice a week anyway to mow the lawn
Long story short my cooler systems have been in the ultimate cruise control.. I am completely comfortable being away from them for a week even up to two, although they prob suffer a bit nute wise.. And on top of all that I have them pulling between 5- 6 oz every time.
Everything was going swell until a couple weeks ago when I forgot to change the rez or even top off my mother and when I came back a week later she was dried up… so I started a new mom (same genetics) and she is buffing up now but I havent been able to take any clones for three weeks so I got a few empty systems
There still a learning curve from growing away from my plants.. But I not gonna make the same mistake twice.. So I built this controller bucker out of a kitty litter container
Still running the same original Sour Bubble and I popped more a few days ago that havent broken the surface.. Looking into some new strains that heavier yeilders.
Anyways..
I have had this system built in my head for about 2 years now and it was starting to eat away at my brain… so since I moved out I decided I would do a flip flop and hopefully be able to be comfortable with my new system enough to be away from it too.. So here it goes…
This is a TWO part system.. Meaning it takes two to fill a space
Parts List
50 ft of 4 inch PVC cut into 5’ pieces (10)… I paid a little more for precut 5’ lengths
(8) 4 inch 22degree elbows
(1) 4 inch 90degree elbow
(7) 4 inch Tee
(8) 4 inch Rubber Caps
(8) 10ft lengths ¾” PVC
(8) ¾” PVC threaded elbow
(10) ¾” PVC female adapters
(7) ¾” PVC Tee
(1) ¾” cross piece
(8) ¾” caps
(3) ¾” 45 degree elbow
Approx 10 ft ¾” flexible tubing
(12) pieces of 2x4 cu to 5”
PVC glue
(8) SWIVEL caster wheels
(50) ezclone misters
(5) ¾” threaded barbed adapter
Pump of your choice (powerful) I am using an eco1500
Large rez, I am using a Rubbermaid 100 gallon horse trough
Tools needed
Drill
Tape measure
PVC scissors
11/32” drill bit
1” drill bit
2” drill bit
Screwdriver
Hacksaw ( a pull down type table saw would be ideal)
Tape
Ok to start you have to cut sixteen pieces of 4 inch PVC at 2 ¾” lengths.. This is the hardest part.. If you bought 10’ lengths of PVC you will also need to cut 8 pieces that are 5’.
Take four of your 4” Tees and drill a 1” hole through the center like so.. ( drain holes)
Pull a lot of thread tape on your threaded barbed adapter and insert it in the hole. Silicone glue to seal if u are not satisfied (not necessary if done correct) I also took the PVC scissors and trimmed down the threaded side so it would be flush when inserted
Take all your 5” wood pieces and screw them together like this and attach 2 wheels a piece to each set.
Once all of this is done then you can build your base .. Tee piece then 22 degree elbow.. don’t forget the wheels Once they are all together cap off one end and the other has a 90 degree elbow… ( when the second system is there the opposite end will have an 90 elbow and the two will ‘ying yang’ to become a perfect circle) In the pic there are still two elbows but this wrong
