That's an awsome hydro unit. What kind of lights do you have ?

1000 hps i was going to stick a t5 8 under it but after all i read i decited to go with a 1000 hps light insted i have them both the t5 would be a it cheaper to run but dont matter ive decited to run just 30 plant in it so its been hooked up with 3 10's just a test run so i can get use of use this system it seems to be quit a awsome setup forsure.Useing the cutting edge for the nutes try to just follow what others have done with this system lol and hope for the best after a few runs im sure it will be great.Atm i have 2 rooms that will be budding the aeroflo and im running a soil room just into budding stage.Just hoping this new system will do well and i can aliminate useing soil for a while exsept for the outdoor of course..ill drop some pics here in a bit when all my lights are on anyone with any input feel free as im so new to this new system atm im keeping the res at 65 deg. and the ppm is about 1200 ph is right at 6.2 to 6.5 im running a good intake and out take and room is staying around 75 or so the babies i put in the system are the new purple power witch kinda like cooler temps i also running2 iso fans and a 1000 hps light.I PUT A AIR PUMP IN THE RES. JUST TO ADD MORE AIR AND CIRCULATION.

Sound like you pretty much got it going on. I would bring the PH down to 5.6 to 5.8. I don't have an Areoflo but have been looking hard at them. Thinking about the 36 model.

Ok ya i got lucky as hell finding mine i just stumbled onto it by missake found it ate a recycle center the local hydro shop had donated a bunch of stuff to them and it was a demo model had a few dings in it but costed me like 200 bucks.JUst pure luck and it seems to be very awsome put babies in it 2 days ago allready showing mega root groth unreal it is..

las pic is my soil budding room just thought id throw it in show everyone i spend a hole lot of time as growing is my passion ha....

Great deal. everytime I run into one I have no money. LOL

Ha i know that o so well...Don't help when here in northern Cali sales are way down think its just here i know friend tel me they give anything to get ahold of the product i have at the prices i offer.O well hopefully it picks up.Hope ya find ya a system like mine ill keep posting and sharing pics that way we will see if its all it says it is.I have it kinda in a tight room one of though rooms you buy a big one just a bit narrow and not able to run 3 on one end and 3 on the other so i have 5 of them on just one end makes up 50 plants so not alot of room for growing ill have to keep them trimmed up .That and just the one 1000 hps.So I'm not sure never done any hydro before or any kinda small plants really.No doubt i will have to keep these small,My soil room you see the plants are beautiful and big 5 to 6 feet lol no way do you do this with this setup.I have no clue even what kinda weight i should get seem so small i guess ill be dam lucky to get 1 pound out that hole room with 1 light lol,but i hear that it will be some dam good smoke and I'm after the best quality i can get not weight.Up here purple seems to be the big seller the more color the better but i been failing bad so far every dam pup plant i grow never shows purps I've tried purple power,purple Nepal,purple urkel,Barney and not one was purple and i really hoping this time they will.I grown purple power before and they did not turn either but i been told that i need to keep Temp allot lower then i do with anything else as it was developed for the UK climate.So I'm hoping dropping temp during lights out and running the rooms ate 65 to 70 during lights on will imitate UK weather and they will purple real good.Up hear in Humboldt seems as purple is the only bud with any market ,Not to dam sure why but i been ask to try to come up with some good color otherwise i sit on product for a long ass time and have to drop the pricing horrible.Anyhow thanks for your input I'm always learning and love to hear what others have done and hear from some master grower lol maybe someone has some tricks that will make my crop golden he he.....:rastasmoke:

The purps are all they want. It could be labador and if it's purple it's gone. LOL.

Keep your room about 68 to 70 all the time. Keeps the water just right too. when it gets about 2 weeks from finish choke off the fresh air. We were trying to figure out a bro's grow and why his papaya was turning purp. In the cool air the stems turn purp but when we found the fresh air vent fan had quit on him. He did not know. Next grow all green. Next we cut the fan at 2 weeks til harvest and they loved the purp. Same buzz.

depending on the strain you want to keep them about 2 feet at harvest. 2 feet is about the canopy the light penatrates. We start about 8 inches on sativa and 12 to 16 on indica. systems like the 60 work very well with an autoflower. Many small plants. Yeilds should be 0.5 grams per watt of light. So under a 1000hps you should get 500 grams. This is easier on many small plants than just a few large ones. Anything more than that is super awsomeness.

haha here i am trying to get mine purp and you guys trying to fig out why your was purpe thats funny shit...not to sure i understood all that 2 feet and so on im soo dam new to this system.With my other room soil i vege for 4 to 6 weeks but i know i gotto vege alot less lol i guess a week or two ill listen to everyone and try and hope i get threw the first few runs then im sure ill be good to go.Good quality is inportant and this system seems to be the shit once i get it down lol ,anyhow thanks for the reply i can use all the help i can :rastasmoke::rastasmoke::hippy::rasta::jointsmile: :thumbsup:
