Welcome to the shire! This is where most of my growing will be going on these days. Took a long time to build the space out.
It's about 5ft x 10ft x 6.5ft = 325 cuft wrapped in plastic, and then insulated on the outside. I'm going to paint the walls, and use plastic on the floor.
I've got one end wall set up with a bench for the veg area, and storage will be underneath. I'll use plastic, and velcro to "wall off" the veg area. I'll be using 6 x 48" floros until I can afford a T5 upgrade.
I'm running two Honey clones in a DWC bucket for giggles. I'm really not interested in the strain at all, but wanted to get some "seat time" in on hydro before the Tahoe OG run.
I have two clones of blueberry, and one of AK47 I took from the Global Locker. They're in coco and in 2" net cups until I see some roots, and then I'll be putting them into the Aero veg container. (I just LIKE the dome, and heated mat vs. straight into the aero. Debate it if you like, but this is MY HOUSE
)
I'll be running short plants in the NFT system for flowering, and will have 3 rows of 4 ; 2" net cups per 396 GPH pump and 15gal reservoir. Each set of 12 plants will be under an air cooled XXL hood, and dimmable 600w ballast. I'll be running the FF 6 part, and using GH Ph +/-, and FLoraKleen clearing solution.
I had some water issues this morning, which turned into BIG issues, so we'll get back to that later, but I'm running well water to a big well water filter, then into a sand filter, then a smaller sediment filter, finally to this Hydro Logic sediment, and Carbon unit. Does about 60ppm when everything is working. (I lost my pressure tank, and someone bypassed the sand filter, so my storage tank is NASTY 560ppm. I'm going to have to drain it go inside, sanitize etc prolly 6hour job tomorrow? Ask me if I'm happy about that...I dare you...I'll pollinate your flower room !!!!)
Temps are about 63 right now, but that's after it being 82 two days ago. Have yet to get a proper exhaust fan, but should have one shortly. Not too worried about it yet. Passive fresh air intake for the time being, but eventually it will be a 6" intake with duct booster fan and 8-10" exhaust w/ carbon filter. Hold on to your haaaatttt!!!
PS Roots are from one of the Global Buckets in the locker.
More later...
