So I built an aeroponic set up and LED light using 10 Samsung Horticulture L2 strips. Each strips uses a 75w driver and fully dimmable. Max output 779W AC/814W DC

Only photos for now. I will add more information on a later date. I have been busy with an outside garden this past week or so... growing 5 different watermelon varieties, flowers, an aeroponic/hydroponic Mongolian Sunflower... and ducks... my wife wanted ducks... All work and no play make Jack a dule boy.

Again, Just photos for now. Will update more specifics later.... This week I think I started to do some training. I decided to do the ScrOG, I feel I should have started this earlier, but put off ordering the net. I started tucking, then a day or 2 later I did a defoliation.... I need to look back at my photos to remember... I forget when I topped. it... meh.

More to come!... don't even ask how I keep this tent in the 70s in the garage when it is already getting to 96 degrees outside..... short answer... "oh, this works, well it did work, maybe if I do this, that seems to help, well shit, that didn't work, uh oh, its getting hot, I got it!... and done. - temps start to climb into the 90s - " oh shit, oh shit!, Its not working anymore, I guess 90 degrees inside the tent is better than being in the 100s.... think, think, think, 😲 I got it!... annnd done👌! Its working. The temp at the time of writing this is... 73 degrees (last night it is was in the upper 80s lower 90s). So yeah, my wife is upset at the time I've been spending on it..... if only she would have let me do this inside the house like I wanted to. Meh, whatareya gonna do? 😕 There is something living in my attic... I hear it now.😒....

JONNY_APPLE_WEEDSstarted grow question 4 years ago
Quick easy question for you guys.. How often to you find yourself needing to calibrate your blulab PH monitor/doser... if you have one. I'm finding that about a week after calibration, my unit starts to gradually read the PH lower than the actual PH. Is this typical?

Absurd
Absurdanswered grow question 4 years ago
I'll usually check my guardian's probe in pH 7 calibration buffer every 2-3 weeks and recalibrate as necessary. Those pH probes do not last forever, they aren't designed to, and you can expect more drift the more use it gets. Blue Labs is fairly generous with their 6 month limited warranty. How long should they last? Depends on how you use it but at most a few years? Stretch out their life by cleaning before testing and/or recalibration and storing the tip in a 3-4 M KCl solution as much as possible. Not very practical with a doser I know, and I tend to leave mine in nutrient solution as well, but I have noticed less drift after storing it in KCl for a couple days, then at least 12-24 hours every week or so (easier for me since it's not on a doser). Replace the KCl storage solution occasionally as it will concentrate via evaporation if left out, and get contaminated by whatever is on the probe. Good info to follow here: https://support.bluelab.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002306603-what-is-kcl-storage-solution- "For this reason, when you hydrate or store your pH probe in our KCl solution, this helps to re-vitalise the KCl reference solution that is inside your pH probe. This is because some of the gel that inside your pH probe can flush out during use - if this happens in storage however, it means that fresh new KCl solution (from your storage cap of your pH probe) will then replace the solution that has flushed out of the probe. This means that the probe is almost 're-vitalised' while it is stored in the KCl solution." The connector and signaling on that probe is pretty standard and you can find cheaper 3rd party probes that will work with the Bluelab just fine. However, they will probably start drifting just as fast, if not faster than a bluelab probe if you don't use a KCL solution. Hope that helps.

I calibrate every 30days when the lights on the bluelab start blink and it's always just +-0.1 drift...so still very accurate after 30days I doublecheck PH/EC with milwakee instruments

Well... I had a high moment... about 6 weeks ago. Apparently I had set my light cycle to 16 on rather than 18 on... oh well. Still healthy and happy.

This is the beginning of a new week! At this point I don't know if I should do anymore lolipoping or defoliation. Anyone have any thoughts?.. It has been crickets on here the past few days. I know I don't want to do much if any trimming after this second week of flower.. but we'll see? 6/29 Meh... no input. So I said fuck it and did a little more defoliating. This shit is hard work! 6/30 Just added some new photos the help explain the set up. Also saw the first hairs today.

JONNY_APPLE_WEEDScommented4 years ago
@Red_Rockst4r, I appreciate it. The time I've been putting in this to mitigate failure is exhausting. I really didn't want to do this in my garage... but I wasn't given much option. Being the problem solver that I am, I was determined to figure out how to keep this sucker cool during the summer. Just wait till I post the videos of what I've done, I think that will be the best way to explain it. But yeah, even though its been a struggle with the heat these past few days, overall things are going really well.
