Well happy anniversary then, Xcrispi!

That setup sounds good. I dont want to go that large, since I dont own my home. I do have some shut off valves, but for now all I do when I need to drain is jam a spare hose into the water pump outlet and thats that.

I think I may try to take a clone later today. I have a folgers plastic coffee can with a hole for a 1 inch airstone, and a 3" netpot. I have cloning gel and planned to take a cutting, trim it underwater, into the gel, and directly into the hydroton with furious bubbles and a drop of super thrive (and some cobbled together humidity cover). Think that'll work?

hey E ,
don't see why the cloner won't work man .
only thing missing is the expensive name . thanx for the congrats man .
peace

Yeh E, that should work. Weed Hound, that is a papered red nose pit on mine. Xcrispi, I am a little blown away by your accident. I feel for you bro. I am completely disabled myself, but I get the job done along with my wife's help, and just have to work around my disability. I still take care of the garden 80% of the time though and you know what? it is therapeutic for me and helps me to stay productive. I can still use power tools and so on so at least I can do allot of the manual labor.
As far as the dogs, I don't have anything in the mix right now. I have been trying to take some time off this last year because I get burnt out working dogs especially with the disability, always cleaning kennels/yards, keeping them separated, diseases, shots, barking and more.
Well, happy anniversary, much respect to you and yours
Adieu for now

that last line sure sounds familiar to me. What's with the pit popularity thing? Those dogs are so 80's!!

[BlueBear]

Weed Hound, what did you mean when you said that the last line sounded familiar?? Guess it flew over my head. With the pits, can be very compact, don't really shed, low maintenance, loyal, tuff as nails, smart as a whip and have had them since I was a youngen.
Also, Smokies Trans AM is so 80's but I wouldn't mind having one, along with the Dukes General as well, hopefully Daisy would come along for the ride, LOL
Adieu

Proud to say that I'm fully recirculating.

A $20 submersible (130gph) from home depot keeps everything moving nicely in a 12 bucket, approx 35 gallon setup.

Happy Holidays to everyone and congrats on the Anny Crispi.

I'm a vet tech bear, have been for years years years....the whole dog thing; kennels, feeding, the hair....FAMILIAR! I love the pits myself and used to have a few but too old now....me that is....energetic dogs....bulls in china shops....happy, happy dogs

Hoping LW drops in, but perhaps someone else can answer this too. What is the hardest, highest PPM of water that you want to push when using the GH 3 part?? I know that they make a hard water applacation, but I am wondering with my PPM of 130ish if I can still reap the bennifits of the 3 part or if I am too hard, LOL??
Adieu

sorry I don't have an answer for you, but I will try and spend some time to look it up...I'm spoiled with nice well water and an ro unit. Never had the hard water problems...sorry

Any hydro store should be able to help you right off the top of their head...just find one with a toll free# and give'em a call. peace
