Interestingly...no offense to Opie but I dislike the bubble wands. I used to use them in my fishtanks and was NEVER happy with them. They got clogged all the time and deteriorated fairly rapidly imo. I love those airstones and use a smaller version of the same ones in my fishtanks.
If there is one thing I have plenty of....it's air pumps and air lines. I have enough EXTRA ones lying around to fill a telephone booth so don't worry about that. I have air pumps around here for everything. :D
Opie thanks for the moisture info.....I've been getting mine WAAAAAAY too wet then. Back to the drawing board and getting a timer. I have a non-digital that does 15 minute intervals....guess I'll go play with that for a while. :D
Opie, dude, i'm not offended in the least. nope not 1 lil bit.:thumbsup:
we're just talkin and i'm wanting to understand exactly what you're saying and explain what i did and why.
we are so totally cool, believe me dude!:thumbsup:
and i been smokin MY thai all weekend, so, how could i possibly not be in a good mood,duuuuuuuuuuuuude:stoned:
WH, you do whatever modifications you deem nesesary, its your new kit, go nutty.
I wish you many happy returns with it.:thumbsup:
now i gotta make one for me:D
but, ummm, also need a good Mother before I "need" a cloner:wtf:
maybe as simple as lowering your water level.:wtf:Quote:

The ones used on this cloner are my 2nd favorite. I don't think you and I are thinking of the same bubble wand though, since mine never clog and never deteriorate. Been using the same 4 in my cloner since the beginning, and they still bubble like crazy.Quote:

I honestly DO love those airstones Rock and I'm not changing them....:)
I hope you don't think I was trying to get you to change. My opinion was requested and I obliged. I run those same stones in my fish tank and they last along time. The ones that fall apart are the all-stone ones. Maybe I've just had bad luck, but those have never lasted more than a couple grows for me.
Two words to solve the problem of overwatering: Harbor Freight.
Pics are of the mechanical timer that turns off and on in 15 minute increments. I added one over the weekend so that it is on for 15, then off for 45 and repeats the cycle continually.

If you don't have a HF store near you, touch base and I'll find a way to get you one. I bought several yesterday.....
MVP let me know how that works....I set one to 15 mins every 2 hours......and we'll compare notes. I have a few extra of those too.
