is it a real chiller or something you rigged? can you make your aero pump inline instead of submerged in the nutrients?


If only it were that easy. My system takes about 30 gal of water and since I use R/O water it takes a long time to get 30 gal out and then getting 30 gal out of the system... once a week puts my back out for 2 days. *sigh*
[I]get a pond pump from harbor freight, and 25ft of poly line from lowes. all said under 30 bucks. then you can pump in and out of the res instead of hauling buckets. if youre roots arent real bad there might not be too much slime. just change the water when it gets the slime on top. besides while you are fixing the plants with hz, why not just run tap water?[/i]


At 40 bucks a bottle that's VERY expensive.
at 400 an ounce so is weed. better a successful grow than no smoke. i would either invest in a better chiller, or a bigger bottle of hz. i believe its prevention dose is much smaller than its unfuckshitup dose




I used cheap irrigation fixtures from lowes. It's the blue/gray fittings for 1/2inch irrigation tubing. One end is male or female (both needed, one inside and one outside the bucket) The other end is barbed for connecting the black irrigation tubing. I just regular rubber garden hose washers on the outside to seal the hole and prevent leaks. Since the water doesn't get above the fitting and there is no pressure there is no leaking with this setup.
bitchin, i will go look. you gotta part number?
