I agree mate, 18 is the sweet spot, i love mine


Just a thought..........18-20 is the sweet spot for DO ( desolved oxygen? ) so with the pump fluming the Rez every 15 mins your getting nice oxygenated water 2?

great write up mate, many thanks for that.

i suppose it would be easy enough to make something like this from parts.
Do you think you could use it without the netpots? i cant see why not personally, but am no expert
It looks like it would be a arse tryin to remove the clones without damaging the roots?


Cheers fella, most ppl just cut the bottom half of the net pots off, I've just not done it yet but I'm going to.

You could easy make this from parts, from the manufacturer or from a good garden centre

yooo

good post mate and nice bit of kit...

 

 

what about if the clones need to be in rockwool for nft?

 

think cutting the net pot bottoms off and then once the root put them in the small cubes, with cutting the cubes down the middle 1st,so then ya can put into the 3 or 4" cubes?

It rly is a great bit of kit cut and forget!

I think the rockwool idea will work perfect!! No problem and remember u can buy new net pots for it for about 50p. Get the cut to root put in a split 1" rockwool put back in the x-stream till a few motlre legs pop out then into you nft

No m8 but i used to frequent an American weed forum a few years back and a few of their hydro growers were mad for growing with aero systems and had top results always.
