Big Boy 6 Site Complete Hydroponic System:
IT'S FINALLY HERE: an affordable ebb and flow system that's smarter than the rest!!! The Big Boy Ebb & Flow Hydroponic System is an unbelievable value to any indoor farmer! This system offers all of the versatility of much higher priced systems and MORE, at nearly half the cost. Using the digital timers included with the system, the fill and drain cycles can be timed down to the minute. The layout of the 3.5 gallon site pots can be easily condensed to meet spatial limitations, and also arranged to allow easy access for maintenance purposes. The unique setup of the Big Boy also gives it the ability to transform from the basic six pot model, all the way up to an 18 POT HORTICULTURAL POWERHOUSE! Six Bucket expansion kits, including the necessary tubing and connectors, can be added at any time to fit your growing needs. The Big Boy also includes a water level adjustment feature, which is not available in other more expensive units.
As with many things, the simplicity of the Big Boy Ebb & Flow System is its beauty. The system works by pumping the nutrient solution in your reservoir through a controller bucket and into the sites. As the solution in the sites and controller bucket rise together, the float valve in the controller bucket stops the flow at the desired level. When the drain cycle begins, the solution is pumped through the controller bucket and back to the reservoir. After assembling and testing the system, simply set the flood and drain to begin delivering life giving water and nutrients to your plants! With the Big Boy System, there are no complicated and expensive control modules to go bad on you. Plus, if there ever are any issues, don’t sweat it. The system is covered under a 5 year warranty, and our knowledgeable sales staff can even make repairs on the spot at your local retail store.
In addition to its simplicity and the common sense water level adjustment feature, the design of the Big Boy Ebb & Flow System addresses many of the other shortcomings of similar systems. First off, the Big Boy utilizes larger 3.5 gallon, low profile site pots which sit the same height as 2 gallon pots and much lower than an ebb and flow table. The higher volume 3.5 gallon pot system allows its owners to grow larger, more robust plants while conserving vertical space! Also, the Big Boy's convenient net pot style lids for its growing sites require less growing medium than other systems. Not only does this save you money on filling up the sites, but also makes cleaning and reusing hydroponic medium much less of a hassle. Anyone who's ever done so knows that is a big deal! Another advantage that the Big Boy offers is larger 3/4" tubing and connectors. Not only does this feature provide faster fill and drain cycles, but it also helps to reduce the chance of the hydroponic medium getting caught in the lines. The larger lines paired together with flexibility of the two Dual Outlet Digital Timers with battery backup, give owners the ability to run well timed, precision flood and drain cycles.
The Big Boy Ebb & Flow Hydroponic System is a perfect illustration of the fact that at HTG Supply, we want you to succeed. Our aim is to offer quality products like the Big Boy that not only save you money, but also help to reduce the time required for mundane tasks in the garden.
Check out the Big Boy Instructions below for more details on this system.
* This system does come with Hydrostone growing Medium. Each 10" Bucket lid holds 7 Liters of medium (6 pot complete holds 42 Liters of grow medium)
* As with any hydroponic system it is a good idea to add an air stone in your reservoir to keep it aerated and moving.

got down to 76 degrees, fan shipped! trimmed 2 1/2 plants that light is to hot to have lasted any longer anyway. took carbon filter off and rigged up a 10" round fan to the 8" see what it does better then the carbon filter thats for sure.

Yeah, it really is an addiction to grow! I thought totally different about EVERYTHING before I started and now .. wooo the mindset is so changed. But it's awesome! I love growing almost as much as I love smoking..... almost
I actually landed at a few other websites and gave them a try first.... then I branched out after a few days, copy and pasting my grow journal around... with nearly NO replies everywhere else, and loads of people that cared here, the choice was easy! I deleted my journals and accounts on the other sites (R o l l it up and Cannabis . org etc) and I just keep everything here. No need to go anywhere else Granted, somehow, I've made 1 enemy here (shame for him) this place is absolutely top notch!!

It comes down to it being so therapeutic for me... To find some thing that calms my mind like nothing else is as much medicine as the effects from the final product.
Ty Rose you have all been so informational never could have found this piece of mind with out you all! Being in a legal state and allowed to do this with little fear is also a huge part of therapy for me to not have to reengage in the event that got me killed ever again is huge to me.

@N.E.: Yeah, it realllly is therapeutic! I'm almost sad when my time is over in my garden room even after 2 hours! Also as for:
I'm envious of you all doing this in legal states. My state juuuuuust got legal the other day. They said "up to 2 years to get dispensaries in place" etc.. though I think it will be faster than that. It states a person can have up to 2 OZ's on them.. but.. NO growing (yet) ... so it's still a bit out for me. I always have worry, but I don't let it consume me. If I ever got caught, it's all for personal use anyways.. but still.. it would suck.
@Dr. Robertsozki: Well, I'd tell ya, but there's really no need to start it up again. It's a very "important" and old school member here, that's liked by many... even me. I don't know why he hates me, it was never clear even in PM's. I was respectful and trying to talk it out in PM's and he just kept telling me not to talk to him.. very childish. Can't just handle the issues and move along, interesting. I've dealt with children that can talk issues out better. -.-
I've even reached out my hand in threads to be nice...I'm just being ignored.
Annnnyways, I'm not trying to jack your thread N.E.! I'm very happy for you and your growing addiction to .. well.. growing! lol :aok: Cheers to you and yours.
