Herbal Kint Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) @GSZZ is this a bad idea? I got Sincra 5.0 , don't have a fitting that's on point ,can I go directly with my attachment like on pic and pick garden hose on it? Next to it Is bigger original attachment Edited December 1, 2023 by Herbal Kint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbal Kint Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) @GSZZ worked ok but a bit slow, say 25% stronger would be better tho,someone in my situation I'd say go for 6 or 7 thousand l per hour. Question, would I get a bit stronger pressure if I set original attachment on same sized hose? Do I lose pressure at that point?

GSZZ Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 @Herbal Kint If I understand you correctly, and my understanding is correct using the original attachment and pipe to suite will increase the pressure in the lines but reduce the flow rate as to what you're experiencing currently with the reduction - if you're on about using the original attachment and then stepping down to the pipe of your chosing, then you'll have the same flow rate as you do using the reduced attachment and the same reduced pressure (more or less, im not sure if position of the reduction makes a difference but I imagine it would albeit quite minimal?)

Herbal Kint Posted December 5, 2023 Author Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) @GSZZ so it worked,only instead of new attachment I put chair in bathtub then 60L barrel on it, somehow it's enough and pressure is perfect Problem now is I gave plants no support,it's 10days in now and it's a bit late to put net up? In 3 weeks they will be growing on floor and I got par plus 480 and new parabolic reflector and can't do yo yo because of its size Par front hps in back Edited December 5, 2023 by Herbal Kint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put two nets in, one just above them and another about a foot above that one. Put a third in if they're super stretchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Kint Posted December 5, 2023 Author Share Posted December 5, 2023 Ye I saw folks use double but I thought am way passed that point ,cheers I'll give it a go. And I hit them with Schimmy right before flower carried on with neem and am yet to see thrip around(alive).Very natural smell,like paint, unreal that's recommended to spray in flower.

Herbal Kint Posted December 15, 2023 Author Share Posted December 15, 2023 @GSZZ I noticed difference in EC bottom vs top of tank, question is did I just mix poorly my 90L tank(I put a shower in and fill it I guessed that will mix it) or nutes settled in 1hour? What's the settle time? So 90L tank, I put nutes in and shower. 30 to 45 min latter in watering I get different EC as I checked remaining 20L in tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
