How To Use Progressive Web App aka PWA On 420 Magazine Forum

AeroBox video. Adaptable, but probably a lot more expensive than buying Rubbermaid totes. The idea of being insulated is VG. Too many plant holes for mj. Max mj plants in it would be 2 <3ft autos, or 4, < 2ft autos. Did you notice how noisy the compressor is? You can barely hear my pump, plus mine is only on <2 seconds every ~2 minutes.
The simple solution is drain to waste (D2W), at least during flowering, but you can't do that with recirculating systems. HPAs separate (and non recirculating) rez solves that.
LEDs
I have one of the good UFO 90s, but the same $350 buys a Quantum Bad Boy T-5 (8 bulb). It is roughly 2 x 4, which mean you can give your plants more room, which allows for greater canopy penetration.
LEDs are already quite capable of growing SOG, SCROG, or autoflower plants < 2 ft tall. But they are one dimensional. When a particular spectrum blows (or losses its' strength), replacement requires sending it to the factory. Good luck with that. And what do you use in the mean time, as you are likely doing a grow? Happened to me twice!
The BB allows me to change individual bulbs (<$5), as well as mix 2400/6500 bulbs to better match the light at spring planting through to fall harvest. My theory is this will pay huge dividends.
Heat
T5 (8 X~ 50 watts= ~400 watts) has more than my UFO 90, but by no means 'hot'. Although, the ambient temps are quite cool right now.
It amazes me that none of the e-mags has a separate HP Aero Forum. And yet HP Aero has nothing in common with low pressure or DWC.
I am on my third HP Aero grow and would love to engage fellow enthusiasts with ideas, and questions.
Mine is mostly a DIY using Rubbermaid totes and mist heads and pump from Reptile Basics. I have a completed grow journal that combines TAG (True Aero grow) with LEDs.
Hope you will come out and join the party,
After a couple weeks of spraying the roots several times a day with H2O2 to get rid of a sizable algae build up, the plants are finally perking up. Checking the roots today, there is lots of new root shoots.
The largest plant is growing 1-2" per day, and the shorter plant is getting new leaf sets along the main stalk where others died.
I don't think you can get this kind of recovery with any other rig. Look for new pics this weekend
