DIY DIY Top feed Recirculation

[KsjAuto]

I see what u mean. What i ended up doing is buying a 2 gallon windowsill pot and hooked it with pvc to a bucket res so it sits on top. A second res is where ill keep fresh water and will hook a pump to pump water into the recycling res. A little complicated but should be really easy to maintain... you'll see it on my next thread soon.

Im on my morning coffee and half asleep so hard to get a picture of the build ,, But im always interestet in some nice diy..
What will your next strain be ??.. I have a 10 ish days old BAM. about time to see if could keep one alive "bamslam" :-( LOL
It`s always a matter of reducing the complexity

Yeah been lurking around, summer time is busy time for me. my second attempt to grow a Bam failed. she outgrew my tent .
anyways,. i started a perpetual grow up again. so hopefully this time it will go the right direction.
I have 1 bam bean left . prop. need to filll my jars with bud. before i give it another go.

Hey Steelrat
I been using it on all my grow logs on this site. and so far i will keep using it. It is much easier to make it with a waterpump and have a airpump to pump oxygen to the res. but hey. im lazy and i don´t whant to clean a waterpump from time to time.
So to have a single small airpump to do it all. with no cleaning to do. is a win win.
Short version..
Res connected to the bottle.
It´s the "juice" bottle thats connected to the air pump via a T fitting. Pumps air into the bottle( making air pressure ) and the water gets pumped out via a "drip ring" . The other end of the T fitting is connected to a airstone and a small valve.
Airstone in the res. and the valve to adjust the amount of air / water... more air to the airstone / less air pressure in the bottle ( less water ) visa versa
This is the only picture i could find.
All the red and white fittings is reused from old airstones..

If your are interested iĺl get better pictures the next time i`l do a res change..

Haha the bam is all over the place! Sometimes they get huge and other times they stay tiny.. I believe mine got to 15 in max, but I'd broken the main stem so she got stunted. Threw out a ton of seed too wish I'd kept a better eye on her.

Hi Steelrat
A picture with the res connected to the bottle
T Fitting connects to the airpump
The other "pipe" comming out from the bottle connects to the feeding ring in the grow bucket
