Thanks! I think I was first to flip so I am a lot farther along. I should have cured smoke by the end of the comp.
That's pretty awesome you've been a "Lead" tester for him. Ya may rub some the wrong way, but we all do. I think you do a great job at representing what his work can do.
I kid , I kid. 
Pffffftttt we all know H.A.F. is taking notes on H's new RDWC build so he can unleash his own 4 site system that some how has an integrated hugel bed in the control bucket so he can dump aloe, kelp, avocado, pumpkin seeds, & worm casting smoothies on top of it.That's pretty awesome you've been a "Lead" tester for him.

Now if ya'd just use some coco and nutes. We could all see what's up!?
Due to the cold weather in my veg room, the start has been slow for my babies.
I will add some pics later, but for now i watch how sluggish my plants are compared to y'alls!!
Just a gorgeous looking RDWC build Streetpro09. I now know(think I know) why my outdoor rdw build failed after seeing both you and H using those black square buckets. I tried to use just normal round 5 gals and the curved plastic walls were too thin properly seal around the uni seals even with the big ass hunks of pvc plugged into them. I can't wait to see your flower room in 8 weeks man!
Rainscience bags, It says to saturate through when watering. They really yellowed out after the transplant and overwatering episode. Any suggestions to green them up? Foliar feed? They are in no soil FFOF. Roots was out of stock locally.
If they are taking too long to dry out then I would get a fan on the floor, set to low, and have it blow between the bags. For future grows you probably just need to mix in more perlite.
Thanks man! I was going to do round buckets but read too much where people had problems with leaks. Bulkheads are the way to go also. No leaks on any of my 40 something connects. Bulkheads can be expensive but are worth their weight in the frustration they save.
Thank you, I will get a fan down there today and flip them to 12/12 much later than planned.
Id leave them be. Watch the pot and water when its light again. They still look good. Have you done any topdressing on them?
I have only used liquid nutes, I didn't feed them when transplanted/overwatered because it was new soil. Didn't think they would yellow out on me. Then it took like 6 or 7 days to dry out enough to water again. I just through 3 ml of calmag in that water. Just a couple quarts of water this time.
I have evolved to this living soil thing over about 5 years. DWC, or even mixing nutes for coco is just too much work. I like the weed. If it was about me and how I grow the stuff I could just run the same beans over and over and every run would be different based on me. I'd much rather stay the fuck out of the way as much as possible.That's pretty awesome you've been a "Lead" tester for him. Ya may rub some the wrong way, but we all do.

I don't need all that shit.
Most people don't realize that growing in general and learning plants is a journey not a destination.I have evolved to this living soil thing over about 5 years.

I love cooking but I hate baking. Too much precision and attention to detail needed. Same with nutes and/or hydro. I'm a fucking stoner
I do like gardening though and always have. Seems like my main job using nutes was "feed the plant". I guess doing the stuff like sprouting seeds for a tea, keeping a worm bin, or growing something else that you'll use for the plant is like a side hobby and they mesh.
My 'maters should kill it this year with all I've learned!
I've been growing organic vegetable gardens my whole adult life....really very simple.
I'm talking about random stuff like planting a cover crop instead of worrying about weeds. Also anything I do for the plants inside I can just do more of and hit everything. It's a small garden...
How do you like the new aqua valves?
