the tubing in my bucket? help.

[devilvenom]

so i'm trying to use poly tubing in my 5g bucket ( at least i think it is, if that's even what it's called). i had 1/2 pvc, saw a cople pics of set ups with the tubing wraped around the side of the bucket. my promblem is how to wrap it around without getting kinks in it. the tubing i have is was laying in the backyard for awhile so i don't know if it's just to old. and now after searching, i can't find the pics of it to see if i'm missing something. so what i'm i doing wrong?

Throw the tubing in a bucket full of scalding hot water and let sit for 20 minutes. if that don't work you need different tubing.

it's possible that your tubing you are trying to use is dry rotted.

daddynobucks used 1/2 poly for his cloner with aero misters. you can check it out in thisthread.

also i've seen it done with a piece of a water hose.

Shake with all you know about hydro why haven't you switched yet?

there is no good reason besides money. lol. well space i guess. i'm actually gonna start soon. i think i'll start with hempy buckets as the cost should be minimal.

i might go with DWC after a while. and a new light is a must. i'm hoping to get a 600W HPS and some quality genetics.

so in short, hopefully very soon! lol.

the thin wall tubing bent in kinks for me also,the thick wall stuff WON'T kink.
A frying pan with 2" of water boiling helps also,I mainly heated the two ends and curved them,also cut the gripper rings off the T connector, a slight inward angle on the ends helps also

total cost per bucket cloner with new parts was $33

hit the earth with the chain (insert link), a box will pop up, paste or type in your link name, and then when it goes back to the reply box the actual name that shows will be highlighted and you can just type whatever you want it's name to be.

it'll looks something like this:

URL="http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/168411-dives-live-nude-girls.html"]dive's live nude girls/URL! (plus the brackets around URL).

will end up like this:

http://dive's live nude girls!
