Getting closer to winter, I decided to start an indoor hydroponic setup. Here are some pictures of the setup I built. Tell me what you think! *2 x 4 grow tent *600 watt hps/ 6" cooltube/ 4"inline fan with carbon filter Brown Tub = Casey Jones Orange Tub = Bubba Kush I am figuring out how to install a drip system. Anyone know a cheap but effective way to do this?
Great setup man! What is your setup inside the bins? Sprayers? Check out my grow in my signature if you want, more power to us Aero Growers!
I have 7 360 degree nozzles. Aero is sooo easy to setup and cheap! I started out with soil, but winter is coming around the corner... time to move it indoors. i want to build a small aero system for clones... any ideas and what materials (inexpensive) to use? Please Share....!!!
It's not Truly Aero but search for rumpleforeskin's thread on how to build a clone bucket. Quite inexpensive and it works great.
This. I built one. Every cutting that I have ever put in it has rooted within 10 days with plain tap water under a single 23w cfl. No humidity dome, no misting. Foolproof. I should go +rep rumple right now.
Here's an update on my plants and setup. Plants are turning out nice and healthy, here are some pics of it so far. The plants fist met the nutrients on 10/05/2010. Thanks for looking!!!!
I'm using General Hydroponics Micro/Grow/Bloom. Roots are looking awesome. The plants themselves are growing nice and healthy. I changed the fluids on the 7th day. Should I wait longer to change?
It won't really matter. However I do have a question, what are those clear hoses for? If they have any liquid in them or going through them, they will grow bacteria inside due seeing the light. Tape those up or get black hoses. Looks like you spent some time at Home Depot/Lowes, I have seen those sprayers.
Those clear hoses are from a air pump circulating oxygen. I didn't see any black hoses at the pet store, but that will change sooner or later. I'll learn from my mistakes later down the line.
Just an update. Casey Jones and Bubba Kush are 8 days old and are on the aggressive growth formula for General Hydroponocs. They are looking good. Cherry AK-47, AFGOO, and Sweet Tooth are 3 days old in the aero setup. So far, I have topped off all the Casey Jones and Bubba Kush at least 3 times to spread some colas around when the time is right. Here's pics: CASEY JONES 8 DAYS OLD IN AERO BUCKET BUBBA KUSH 8 DAYS OLD IN AERO BUCKET:
LOL! After watching all the youtube videos on how to, I did spend a couple of hours in home depot gathering what I needed and comparing products. It was fun, the build of the buckets took no longer than 30 minutes each and i saved a ton load of money building them. They might not look as good, but I'm sure they perform equally to what you can find in the hydroponic store. Thanks for checking out my setup.
I just finished doing a routine fluid change. General Hydro is doing the job. Anyone ever try the FloraNova by GH? I ran out of the grow so i stopped at the local hydro store and picked up the flornova grow and bloom.
Lookin good! Hope my first set up produces results like yours. Was wondering if you were considering some co2 in the future?
