Like someone (Billy?) mentioned, the Ebb and Grow "Monster" may be an option for you.

Otherwise, the only thing I can think of is to try calling Titan Controls (the manufacturer of Flow N Grow) and see if they have any ideas on getting one to where you live. They've been super helpful whenever I've talked to them. Like you, I really liked the 4 gallon pots - seemed like the perfect size, and the inner netpots are something I like a lot better than the nested bucket with holes that the Ebb and Grow systems have. In general, it just seems like a slightly nicer system to me. They use good quality pumps, etc., too.:

1-888-80-Titan or 1-888-808-4826

If you are handy, you can probably even just get a controller (EBB n Gro or Flow and Grow) and DIY the rest of it. If you go that way, let me know and I can probably give you some ideas on the pumps you'd need and how to make it happen... Or, like mentioned, maybe you can make some tweaks to your existing system and make that work even better for you. :goodluck:

Hey Jon, I already responded to the Flo&Gro question on Culticvators thread, but I have more to add...

Can you get this where you are?
Ebb & Flow Brain

They also offer it in a kit form.

I want to try the Titan system, but there is a high probability I will use one of these as the controllers. If you're willing to do a little DIY, you should be able to get the best of all worlds. I like this Aquhub controler because the brain is on the wall. I hate having the timer on the control bucket. It's inconvenient to adjust and it takes up more floor space. Also, if(when) the controller overflows, all the electrical is right there! The Titan system has not corrected this.

Check out Xlr8's link to his Flo&Gro. He DIYed a lot of it.

I bet shipping is so much because of the reservoirs. Try to get the system as parts. It's silly to ship a plastic barrel to you. I'm sure someone local will have a food grade 55 gallon drum.

I used to use trays too and switched to the buckets. I can see the pros and cons of both, but I think I still prefer buckets. I think you do too. :)
 
Re: My First Grow Journal-Holy Grail Kush- Purple Kush 6x12 Scrog 4 x 600W LEDs On Mo

Hell , this Ebb n flow brain is fuckin' great for some DYI work !!!!
I really like the idea of having all the electrical stuff , away from the controller !!

Of course hiker , you can also do that with flo n gro as well, the brain is not attached permanently on the bucket ! You unscrew two very-very small (lol) screws, and you can attach it to the wall, but ONLY few inches away !! The cord is not very long !!
But mate, I think it does the job fine !!!

Edit: Daamn, I just saw it uses TWO float valves, for safety !!!!!!!
It is ver common (from what I've read) to have a stuck valve and flood the whole room !! This patent ensures , this is not going to happen, that easy !!
This is a FANTASTIC option IMO .

By the way xlr8 if you read this, have you ever face any kind of that problem , in flo n gro bro ?
It is something I never asked you , I totally forgot that.

Hmm it seems I can't find the monster system any cheaper in .ca ! In fact, it seems I can't find it at all elsewhere ...
Sorry Jon , I'll keep an eye on it ....

Very cool Hiker this is right up my alley bro! and I can get it here:) I can use 5 gallon muckets with this its perfect. reps coming your way bro you just saved me hundreds! I can build a 15 pot system for around $400 less than half of buying a complete system with shipping:Namaste:

lol...I was on the phone with them yesterday bro, they gave me a list of Canadian distributors but none of them carry the system.I like the idea of that brain and building my own system to fit my room.Im going to give my current sytem one more go and if its still giving me problems im going to build my own bro.thanks for all yuor help bro:Namaste:

No problems really. You have to be vigilant when you set it up (between grows or first time) that the pump hose or cord in the brain bucket doesn't interfere with the float valve. Easy enough, but if you aren't careful it can be placed in such a way that it does. I nearly had a flood due to this, but caught it at the last minute during pre-grow, between round testing. I think Alaskan1 ran into this once too. It's pretty easy to avoid if you know to watch for it (now you do!). Other than that, it's been nearly flawless.

What I did, was bought the "6 site expansion kit", and the brain bucket. Then, made my own reservoirs, bought my own pumps and hoses, and let 'er rip. The buckets rock... I wonder if those expansion kits would be cheaper to ship -just to get the F&G buckets?
 
Re: My First Grow Journal-Holy Grail Kush- Purple Kush 6x12 Scrog 4 x 600W LEDs On Mo

at $100 per expansion kit and $300 for the oceanus bucket plus shipping it would still be alot more expensive to go that route. I really enjoy building my own stuff so I think I ll be trying out that Capp brain, its $280 with shipping and tax, so I figure another $200 for buckets and all the hose and fittings will get me a 15 site system custom fit to my room:)

as soon as they Canadian government passes this new law in march this year were applying for a production licsence and applying for a small bissness loan to open a dispensiary and a secure building to produce( if we get approved).

You should do a DIY thread when you build this one :thumb:
