Re: Perpetual organic garden of butt poundin' love
Hell ya good job man. The things are cake to build and so worth it right? Just take a cut and put it in the aero and wham your done. I change my water like once every 2 weeks. I use nothing but RO/DI. Not rooting hormone BS, no nothing. Once roots stat to pop out, I add maybe .5 TSP (drops) of general hydroponics Micro. It isn't necessary but I did notice once the roots show and I do this, they grow a lot faster forming super white spiderweb roots.
Just be careful. The first few reservoirs I tried leaked where the lid met the container itself. Some lids are rounded around over the area they both meet. When the water jets started to spray the water went up and right around dripping out the sides very very slowly. I thought it was fine, let for the night and came back to find my tent water tray filled with water and my pump burnt out. Just be sure to check the lid well for slow slow drips and you'll be ready to endlessly cone!
One more thing I did to my little 2" net pots. I cut the bottoms out. When the roots dangled down through the netting they would get tangled making removal of the cutting impossible without damage. Try it out, you will see what Im talking about.
Check it out. Notice how I cut the bottom sections out of my net pots? The roots get all tangled up in those bitches making it almost impossible to remove them without breaking some roots.
your cloning setup inspired me to go to lowes the other day and just walk around. i ended up with a bunch of parts and when my pump and sprayers came in the mail today, i put it all together =]
still waiting for the neoprene, but im excited!
