Is this Heath Robinsons Black Rose? I use to be on a forum with him in the early 2000's He would post about it quite often.

Got six upcanned today. 2 of each strain. Soaking 6 blumats for install tomorrow. Still got my eye on it. Ordered the digi potentiameter for some extr dialage. Liking the 2ltr infinity pots better than the 1 liter air pots ...

I’ve been using Blumats for years now and love them. Buy the little clear caps that snap on over the knobs to keep them in place once dialed in. They are cheap and worth it because it’s so easy to accidentally bump those knobs when you’re messing with the plants. The carrots really should each just come with one.

Like a joint roller without A metering tray.. cool watching them suck the water out if a jug whenever..
Overcame my temp vpd issue was able to get another 10 degrees with a 500watt aquarium heaters in the ebb and flow sunce i was hand watering.
Near as i can tell a guy needs to target 100 mb with that meter.

Montana is a beautiful place! I lived just outside of Great Falls in the late 90s and I loved it out there.

I lived on the opposite side of the state in a town named Colstrip.

Blumats are functioning better than expected. Cover crop is taking hold probably could double seed count to 2 tbsp. Need some rice hulls for top but my store is a brew supply too with 40 different barley varieties to choose from etc. Since im doing a flatlander type grow think they look ready to top.

I love them. I've been running them long enough that I can tell if something is wrong by how much water is left in the reservoir each day.

I only run plain water through mine. If I use RO water then I'll ad a little CalMag to it but I don't add anything else because it can clog the drippers. If you aren't using drippers then you probably won't have any clogging issues though.

Jumbled mess but here's the question. Does head preasure vary if it has to go down 6 ft and back to 4ft. Keep lines straight or can i tuck them away and still have same preasure with only a 2ft delta cumulatively? Orange blumat line...

I don’t think that matters as long as the reservoir is at the recommended height (3’ or higher above the top of the carrots). It might make a small difference in the pressure, but you have a big reservoir so I doubt it makes enough to matter. I personally top my reservoir off every morning just because I think it keeps a more consistent pressure but I also only use a 5 gallon bucket for my reservoir.

I appreciate you chiming in on my roller-coaster fluid dynamics test. I installed this as an insurance to my floraflex hoping for a better moisture gradient i feal ebb and flow didn't deliver.. about to fuck around and find out...

No problem... 1st wave of 6 in 6 more upcanned. See whos a boy or girl flip.
