I am so jelly, looks great. You are making flood and drain look easy.

Hey HubbaBubba Thanks man but il let you in on a Secret I won't be doing Flood and Drain with this grow I'm just using the trays right now as drainage trays. Once summer calms down and it cools off after this grow il be doing my clones off my Mother plants in CoCo with the flood and drain method of growing.

Subbed up for sure. IMHO, I've been using blue planet 3 part high yield for several grows and is great in both soil and hydro setup. However my hydro setup serms to be more blue planet friendly?.. Or it's the super oxygenated water I'm using, not sure yet. Your og are going to be almost twice the size of the hound, I bet. At least mine were on those nutes. Only thing I have noticed, OG was a little more susseptable to nute burn unlike Walter White, or sour hound.. I could run blue planet at full tilt on those strains and produce nice yields and great dense buds. Now I did the same to OG and had all kinds of leaf burn. So I dialed it down on OG and she's fine.

Oh yeah, those OG can put out some serious side branching so your going to have quite an awesome jungle in that room!!..

Thanks man yea if dialed the Nutes down they seem to be loving it. The growth rate is insane i want tondo another update but then again I'd like to wait till day 21 so show the huge difference. For the price of Blue planet you can't go wrong.

Do you feel the warm weather invites too much growth of bad stuff in the flood liquid?

I run A/c in my room but I feel like yes the water would still warm up a decent amount. Which can cause more build up of the stuff we don't want.

Ok guys today's project is Make a Drip System I have the Idea in my Head how's it's going work went to Home Depot and Picked up almost everything I need. They didn't have the stakes to hold the Drip line itself so a trip to Lowes will fix that.

Will Post a video explaining the build maybe showing some of it.

Stay tuned guys will update tonight with the progress

Drip system is installed. Video coming soon wasn't as hard as I expected.

Last watering was with 5 gals watered tonight with a 5 gal Res. will have to up to 10-12 gals next watering and from here on out.

For those of you who run drip systems my question of this is to you.
-Do you guys run 2 drip tips to each Pot? And if so what Tips?
- If running a single line what size drip tips do you guys use?
Just curious

I run a drip system but make my own drip rings with 4mm black air line and t connectors and 1 drip ring each pot tested they pump out half a litre per minute cut about 5 to 6 inches of tube drill it with the smallest drill bit and the holes close over then get a sowing needle nice and small get it red hot and use it to widen the drip holes 4 holes in each drip ring work the best for me so far also check out the coco section waxi has a thread there about drip systems good look dude [emoji2]
