    @greenkush Mentioned these to me a while back, however I believe you need to use the pressure compensator / regulator drippers and then connect that to the Netbow. When I tried the pressure compensating drippers previously I could not get enough pressure from my water pump for it to work, so you'd need a larger than average water pump I rate.

     

    Also you'd need to have it on a timer. Otherwise it looks great and possibly a cheaper option for bigger grows compared to watering systems like Blumats and Autopots - which I feel are perhaps more feasible for smaller grows.

    What I can tell from reading all the info is that you should not exceed 4 bar in pressure. If you use a pump more that 4 bar you need to connect a pressure regulator from the line to the dripped. 
    I may be wrong. Will tel you after I test them this afternoon.

  2. Week 3 of flower. The male parts on the Chimpancheese is developing slowly. Was hoping for faster development. The Kush is by far the best plant in this batch. The cheese and the animal cookies and the Tangie is a close second.

    something often put aside - is your IPM management supplies.

    growing invites lots of critters into the environment, some are good, some are bad...and the bad ones are the tough ones to get rid of.

    a few products that are invaluable would be the following

    Pyrol 

    spinosad

    350sc

    coppersoap

    and a good wetting agent

    these should keep your happy growing experience....happy

    Eco BB is also your friend spray your plants drench your soil.

  5. All good and well about the dehumidifier. But it also depends where is SA you live. Any where along the coast you will have issues with PM especially if you are beginner. 
     

    another thing 

    Grow in soil for your first couple of grows. It is way more forgiving than the nutrient/hydro techniques. Invest in Explogrow it may seem expensive but you will not regret it. Research seed sprout teas as a feed if you want to feed your plants. Also buy a small air pump. You can air rate  your water with it and brew all the teas you will need.

    Thanks Skunkpharm,

    Do you have any suggestions for equipment please. What size/make of fans etc .

    I suppose you can't mention brands on the forum but any information would be great.

    Cheers....

     

    It all depends on your budget range. There are really expensive products but then there are really cheap products. 
    when you buy a tent look for one with metal corners. They last the longest. And always be careful with the zips. Mars hydro is a good midrange tent.

    Fans: the clip on fans are probably the best when it comes to tents. Hydrobiz is the cheapest. Look for the pole clip on fans

    extration fan: buy an in-line fan you can get a decent inline fan at AC/DC. My little one has been running for 4 years non stop, except when we have load shedding.

    Dehumidifier: Check secondhand shops and liquidation businesses. You can pick one up for 2500. 
     

    lights: well that is up to you. LED’s will last you at least 5 years. So buy good quality. Growopz is a good place to start looking for lights. The is also a couple of startups I think @MrEmay be doing lights bar style and @Light It Up does quantum boards.

  7. If you are going to invest money into lights you should go for the bar style lights in my opinion. Your plants can grow closer to the light as you don’t have heat issues with this style of lights. You also have a better foot print. If you look at large commercial facilities in the USA this is the only lights they use.

  8. Nice run. I do also have a running problem. I love trail running and climbing mountains for fun. I do not run goofed though. I like to smoke afterwards. It’s my recovery substance.
