Zaza thanks alot and appreciate the input, how close u think I should put them, they're about 7inches away at the most. You should def I would love to see that thing, I was goin to do a Rubbermaid one myself at first. Goodluck on your baby.

Vapedas thanks a lot man!! Like I mentioned above they're about 6or 7 inches away as of now, think that's good? I want to move to LEDs but let me get this one down first. Would love to see your set up duh I should prob check ur profile. Thanks and good karma sent ur way.

Cool setup keeping an eye on this one! I'd recommend some scrog screen action to increase yields in that grow space!

Nice cabinet and lineup of nutes, is that the hobbyists bundle?

Good luck bro

Vicklagina thanks a lot I appreciate it! Ur setup & new tent is really nice, diggin those LEDs. I was thinking about a scrog but I'm concerned how that will work it when I have to change the & clean the res, any suggestions.

Villain good look man. Yea that's the hobbyist pack with the bud candy from the expert bundle. Bought them all separately from amazon pretty cheap, but as you can see the additives are tiny 250 ml and they accidentally gave me the voodoo juice in 500ml that I paid 24 for and the sticker price is 60. But I'm small so that should last awhile.

I ran a test run of the AN grow with b-52 and voodoo juice half strength on the test babies and saw significant growth overnight. I mixed it with tap water that read 70 ppm and 8.5 ph, the half strength of nutes brought the ph down to 6.4 and the ppm was around 540 so that's equivalent to about 1.0 ec. And they did pretty good here's a couple of pics.

The starter plugs with the holes covered are plugs with babies in them, I have the other ones there to cover the light from getting into the res.

Nice result, not sure why voodoo is so expensive? plus I'm having trouble finding it instock in the uk

Happy growing

The scrog wouldn't interfere with your res changes at all if you can get yourself a water transfer pump like this. It's the same one I use for my 15gal res: Water transfer pump

The scrog screen would be at least 8 inches above your reservoir. You could make a small hole on the top lid for when you use the transfer pump and then cover it with aluminum foil when you're done so light doesn't go through. The pump shouldn't get in the way of your scrog and you should be able to do a complete res change with fresh nutes in 15 min.

You really don't have to clean the res at all unless you're using gunky nutes and have algae. Best thing to do is just add some 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide with every res change if you're concerned. It'll keep gunk at bay while keeping the roots healthy. A capful to the res every week is good. Some people do a tsp to a tbsp per gal but I feel like that might do some damage. I'll have to do some research on it. Don't use it if you have organic nutes though.

Just keep your res dark and cool (65-70 degrees f) and you won't have the above problems.
