Purps' Perpetual: DIY 800W & 350W LED, 9x6, COCO/DTW & RDWC

Hello 420MAG,

Getting ready for a record run here, starting to warm up so my garage grow room is being cleaned out. got my air stones all cleaned, about to take apart my dwc buckets and scrub them. will be replacing my 1 inch bulkheads with 2 inch pvc pipe bulkheads so I dont clog.

I have a 4 - 5 gallon site RDWC system with a chiller I am rebuilding and modifying, as well as a 6 site coco DTW setup I will be building. each system will be running off a 30 gallon reservoir. so 50 gallon dwc

I will be building a 800W DIY quantum puck array with deep red initiators, Just ordered and will be shipped at the end of may when they are released. I will be running Jack's 3-2-1 ($ cheap and lasts you 2 years) and hopefully will bring some of the simplicity and savings of that method over to some growers here! no need to drop $300 a run anymore.

Lol that awesome. I make up a small ball in my hands of a coco perlite mix and make a spot in it for the tap.
Like to avoid crossing mediums even though it's nothing compared to the volume of medium.

Redundancy is a must imo. I have 6 1 foot tall plants ready to go in the bloom tent and I only have room for 4.

Go get that record man. :Namaste:

I only have 1 gallon pots so my hand is forced for rootings sake lol
 
Seeds in cubes, mixed up jacks at 20% w/root enhance. and some root pack sprinkled in the hole. shits about to get real.
OH and a 12/12 germ rate I have 2 extra seeds now. I will see what ones I like, I wont out a single sativa leaning cookies plant. they are pissy at first compared to the ww one but DAMN its waaaaay better.
 
Thanks for the input regarding air circulation & watering, good to see your new grow starting off! Looking forward to some nice root pics!

anytime :) I can't wait for roots man, I royally fucked up my last auto grow by doing everything wrong in the root zone. I've been going crazy over analyzing every forum for the past 4 months for the best and most cost effective way without sacrificing quality. cutting through the market bs of buying water in a bottle.

I am going a little big on planter size so I will be adding some perlite chasing 6 waterings a day in 3.75 gallons. I have a good feeling about this one. I'd say third times the charm but I've tried a different method each time lol.
