Indoor Hope's perpetual Skyline grow

[420autoflower]

Dunno if you have this option.... I used to bolt my RO machine to one end of a plank, prop it up in the shower. Unscrew the shower head and the RO machine pipe screwed on right nice.... no extra fittings required.
Filled up a 60L flexitank reservoir and used a cheap aquarium pump connected to a short length of hosepipe to fill up buckets.

Thanks for the advise Teetee!
This is the unit I’ve been using… might be similar to what you have. I could just unscrew the one in the garage and move it into the house but like the option of placing the whole bucket in the sink to avoid any flooding from over filling.

All goin well except the poor predator.. she still has that deathwish and hates the sight of me.. front middle.. in case you couldn't tell lol.. oh.. and 1 big Lecter down.. the other comes down within 5 days I'd say.. the white cheese has impressed me given the shit time I had with the breeders seeds previously.. clipped a couple large fans off the block plants.. let some light in.. their tight wee plants..

Have you tried staring sternly at her?
The big Lecter is looking nice and chunky, and the others are moving along as well - the colours have certainly perked up and they look like they are behaving - happy days

always the first course of action m8.. I went from a stern stare down to a good old fashioned telling off but she's still resisting lol

Thanks bro.. I think.. think.. the others are in hand for now and I'm over the moon with the big Lecter. It's in a 2L pot! 2 litre... half a gallon lol I've grown many a soil plant in that same pot and rockwool buds by comparison are totally different level.. I'd never have got buds like that or even close tbh in 2L of soil.

Who loves rockwool.. Hope loves rockwool

So with delivery charges once again thwarting my plans I'll be building my own flood and drain table.. hardly a staggering feat of engineering but I'm an office worker with lovely soft hands so any DIY involving the use of power tools could always prove fatal

First things first.. storage boxes for a res and tray.. if I get clear boxes should I paint the res box or just cover it with something?? Panda film maybe?? The whole box or just the top? Just the top probably still leaves the solution open to light??

I've ordered the inlet and outlet tap thingys so they should be here soon.. if i can get this going then as many of these plants as I can get on a table are going flood and drain asap as the double daily watering and non stop nute mixing is just not convenient!!

I'm looking at a 30L box for the res.. so next question.. how much liquid should I put in??? Will a 30L res be enough for F&D?? 20cm depth in that 30L res box.

Sketches below of my intentions for review/comment/mockery lol..

Top view tray beside res..

How it will look tray on top of res..
