Hey Abby grow box modification.

Does anyone know how or if you can upgrade the air pump in a Hey Abby? The included pump is essentially an insult. Thanks to whoever can potentially help me upgrade.

The pump is built for the system, so if you’re looking to get more air through the tube… get a larger air pump and connect the air hose to it. You will have to plug it in to electricity and put the air pump hose to it thru the slates in the back cover panel. You’ll prolly get some hose with the new pump, use that to travel the distance. You will need some small zip ties to connect it and pull the power for the small black box air supply.

Hope this helped. :sunglasses:

I just added 30ml of Photosynthesis Plus by Microbe Life to my resevoir. Man, that shit smells aweful.
Directions say to use 60ml for every five gallons. My Abby has a three gallon resevoir.

Trimmed a few more leaves, and started LST on 4 of 8 branches. I am not touching it for 14 more days.

Next update in two weeks. Shes growing slowly, but I have a feeling in two weeks she’ll double in size. My premlinary plan is to induce flowering at 42 days old.

Im at a loss the plant is overall perfectly healthy with the exception of two leaves, one severely bad. I added 3ml of Cal/Mag. This was an overnight occurrence.

CalMag is very nessesary in hydroponics if using distilled water. Almost doubled in size in 24 hours.
