I had to use RW cubes to buffer them on both sides or it would just wash away. Made a load of holes in it with a screwdriver so the water flows freely. Im trying to come up with some kind of mesh that i can glue to the pipes and do away with the rw altogether.
I think the PH is sorted out now though, I fed with PH 5.2 this morning and the run off was 5.7

I was reading about Advanced Hydroponics Micro. They say it has ph buffers in the solution to help with micronutrient uptake. Looks like i made a good choice

why dont you use hydroton in net pots and suspend them off your pipes you will prob need new pipes tho

im using something similar with a sheet of timber lying flat over my big tray with holes for my net pots and then my res fills up to bottom of the pot

Thats what im planning on doing next time round. It'l only be tenner for the pipes and ill drill out 3" holes with a holesaw and pop the net pots in like that.

Get some pics up of your plants in trouble, from what ive read almost anything is fixable with these fantastic plants.

Youre system would just as easily be used for DWC or bubbleponics if u got an airstone. No need for a pump or resevoir. Iv seen a lot like it

Update day 25, They seem to be doing ok except for one which has what i think is light burn, pic below. I trimmed off the damaged leaf and fimmed this one to see the results. It was the runt of the litter anyway.

They after bushing out bigstyle, only 5" tall but a foot across, one of em is still kinda small so im hoping that its not my only female??!

Started 12/12 on sun the 1st, they seem to be loving the nutes, no smell yet.

Temps were running real high so i had to invest in a good fan, got a kitchen extractor in b&q, does the trick nicely. I dont have a controller so i set it for 15 mins on 45 off. I had to change my intake vent to the ceiling because the air coming in was too cold. Taking air from the attic now so temps are holdin between 18-21. Gonna start them on bloom nutes next couple days. They were young so i kept em on grow nutes for a little longer.

Pics to follow

Peace

on the website it says 4-6 weeks veg, 1 know 3 abd a bit is a bit young but all the lower branches are out and they wont get much taller so fuck it, if i get 2 weeks of growth after i switched 12/12 that'll be fine. Im not lookin for a monster harvest, just enough smoke to do me 8 wks. Iv got 3 female seedlings coming along that im gonna clone the shit out of. Then the REAL fun is gonna start

Wats up PPL, its been a while so its time for an update. My 6 plants are now 3 definate females, lots of white hairs, and theyve gotten HUGE! I nearly killed them with nutes two weeks ago but after lots and lots of flushing they came through, new growth is beautiful and there is at least 12 budsites on each plant

Iv now got a secondary ebb and flow setup under cfl's for vegging, the LA woman seed never germ'd so i have one kush, one lemon skunk and one bagseed about two weeks old. The skunk is just gorgeous.

Pics will follow
Peace
