Dumme's Aero-Soil-Aquaponics adventure

Here is the little lady standing up and away from her pipe cleaner support. No if I can see how to add a photo I’ll do that too.

Should I put mirrors behind the plant?

@Greengardner1,
No mirrors. White flat paint is fine.

Those are snails in the second plants roots (2nd picture).

In the first, you can see where I was rough when I pulled a branch off, low on the stem, but there’s no stem rot luckily.

The first three are Green Crack and the last is an old AK-48 clone.

Love this idea @Dumme. I’ll be watching this closely

Not my best grow, but I’m loving these Cree COB’s :slight_smile:

Very nice! 435 grams with how much light output? Have you described details of the LEDs anywhere? Which Cree chips specifically?

Btw what camera are you using?.. Pretty high quality video!

Good job! I’m impressed how big plants do you grow under those LEDs … I’d grow girls this big under at least 600W HPS but more preferably under 1000W…

I used:
6 x CREE CXB3590 (3500K 80 CRI)
1 x Mean Well hlg-320h-c1400b ~300watts
1/8in angled aluminum with DIY frame

COB’s were a bit over-spaced @ 20in apart.

The video was just taken by my smart phone (Samsung galaxy S5)

Slow but steady on the build. With my back, April showers always slows me down.

Hello @Dumme, thanks for the video. Do I recognise correctly bubble buckets in the flowering area? That black circular tubes is high pressure and protrudes with sprayer into the bucket, right?

Only 10 fish for 6 (or 9?) bubble buckets? Looks like 4x600W … :dizzy_face:

No sprayers. It’s lower pressure feed line. Simple RDWC system, with oversized PVC return line as its aquaponics.

That is correct. Johnny5 used 10 fish total, 6 buckets. :slight_smile:
