Nice haha harder to learn when they’re all dragged out
Ok, break time. It looks like this grow may be over. One of the auto pot floats stuck and dumped about 8 gallons of water in the room. Most stayed contained in the liner. But lifting it show the whole floor is wet. I was over heating so I will go back in steps to try and get all the water cleaned up. I got about 4 gallons out with the wet/dry vac. Now the filter is soaked so it is only pulling a tiny amount of water. I see hours of work a head of me tonight. Once I cool down a little here. I am going to look and see if it may be possible to move a few plants to the 4x4 in the other room. The lines and all parts of the scrog disassemble easy. I just don’t know if I have it in me physically to do this. Would have been better yesterday when I was feeling better. I know if I only partially clean this. The water under the liner will ruin the floor. I am in a Mobil and the room has tile in there. I will bounce back here as I take my breaks. Which will be often.
Happy friday
@Not2SureYet Cant like that… Nope… I think about that with the ap’s …Let me know what you think created the problem.
Will do. Hard to see but this is what I get to work with. Plants are bigger than I realized. It was the front right there that stuck
Not a good thing! SH** Happens
Sorry to hear bud. Hope u get back on track here.
Dammmmn man I’m sure your grow will be fine brother
uh oh! fingers crossed everything is fine! Good luck my friend
Floor is pretty soaked under the liner. Last break here and then I am going to try and cut the liner out of there. 2 hours before lights out. Should be doable. I will have to work some thing out for a liner after this grow. A razor blade will now be my friend After moving the aqua valve. it is sealing. All I can do is keep an eye on it. And not fill the reservoirs to much in case it happens again. I know they make mats that sound when they get wet. I am going to look for one after I am done here…
I think we can probably find a solution to keep this from happening again. Like kiddie pools, but there is probably better options. Gimme a call one night this weekend if you have time.
I noticed that @imSICKkid was using some kind of flood trays that goes under a washing machine. I bought a pair for my tent and it works great !

Thanks @kaptain3d, I had looked into those before. I need odd sizes. After this grow. I am going to have to make my own. I have a few ideas for making smaller ones. I want to try and keep this some what small and movable. My brother in law is good with fiberglass. I may have him work with me on a permenant fix. Maybe 3 trays that would hold at least 12 gallons each. I only fill my rez to 11 gallons.
@dbrn32 I will shoot you a note a little later to day to catch up with you. The first few hours here will be getting every thing in order
So, not wanting to chop every one down. I took the easier route and cut the whole floor pan out of here. The big tent can do with out it as there is still a floor in there if I was to ever go back to it. This is what I left it looking like last nigh. Not wanting to wake up to more water. I left the pot that did this off. I have valves every where so I can shut the down the lines at each individual plant if I want. And the others still get fed.
We now have just the floor. I got all the water up and ran a fan on high in there all last night. I will let it run through today as well.
The Aqua valve seems to be working ok right now. I am wondering if when I was cleaning the whole pot after the last grow. And flipping it up side down and such cleaning it. I left it off over night. Not wanting t wake up to more water. I can check it through the day now. Well, time for a shower and coffee.
For now though. The girls are good to go. It is really cool this morning. Good for me but makes making the RO water slower. I have close to 60 gallons to make today
Ok, I am not 100% sure I have found the cause of this. I did find the fill hole going into the auto pot was plugged up. Not sure why the top didn’t shut off where the actual valve is. It over flowed again why I was in the room. Glad I was there. Since cleaning the hole. See picture All has been good. I checked the other pot as well and it is clear. This would be the same spot where auto pots tells you to clean the stopper every few weeks. I set the plant cam up in here so I don’t have to go back and check every few minutes. I just glance over to see how it is doing. I may need to set this up as an all the time cam in there.
Where it was plugged up
And my cam to monitor it
Thanks for the update appericiate that
