    I'm legal now! Help me figure out my 10x10 room design!

    It's such a huge relief of stress. Knowing that I am trying to do something the right way. Rather than not having people at my house, and being paranoid all the time. The weight off my shoulders has been lifted! But come on guys! 150 views and no suggestions?

    Best way to insulate a reservoir

    I have a 55 gallon barrel that I am using as a reservoir for my icebox water cooling. I am trying to find the best way to keep it insulated so my chiller does not work as hard. It is your standard blue water barrel, I was thinking about building a box around it but I am not sure what I would...

    Water in Holding Tank?

    Well, there will be no nutes in it. It will be strictly pure water that I use to cool my light, and that I will use to cool my nutrient reservoir through a coiled stainless steel tube. This system will be completely closed off from any and all contact with outside air.

    Water in Holding Tank?

    Should I do anything special (air stone, h202, bleach) to the 55g closed loop system that will be connected to my chiller cooling my icebox and my nutrients? I want to prevent any algae or slime growths.

    How to Stop Helicopters Seeing My Crop

    I use an ICEBOX water cooler for my 1000w along with a chiller. The icebox removes all the heat(minus the little bit coming off the glass), and brings the exhaust temp to 75 degrees with a 65degree chilled water. Even my hood, stays cool to the touch and emits almost no heat. Why worry about the...

    Nutrient Reservoir Rubbermaid Bulging

    Well, it takes 11 gallons to fill it up. And when I got it full of plants, I was evaporating 2 gallons a day, hence the reason for the bigger reservoir. The eyebolt idea sounds like a plan, I might also build a wooden frame around it.

    Nutrient Reservoir Rubbermaid Bulging

    I bought a 35 gallon rubbermaid container to use on my 3x3 ebb and flow. Well, as soon as I get about 25 gallons in, the container starts to flex and its actually turning white due to the stress marks its stretching so bad. I tried to put a ratcheting tie strap around it, but it didn't work very...

    1000W Digi Set-up, Which One?

    What possible altterior motives may I have? I bought a digital ballast and bulb from them. It was cheap and got here next day. Would I of said it took them two weeks to get me a replacement bulb if I wanted to upsell them? Why don't you go smoke a bowl and relax.

    A/C vs. IceBox & Water Chiller

    I'm gonna throw the BS flag right here. I have a 1/4hp JBJ Artica chiller, and they are not designed to cool below 20 degrees below ambient. Infact, most 1/10hp to 1/3hp can only cool 20-25degrees below ambient RUNNING THE COMPRESSOR 24/7! I spoke with JBJ tech support and they informed me...

    3x3

    I have 4 mothers in my 7x8 room and they take up 1.5 deep, 4ft wide, and 2.5ft tall. Your room seems a little small if you wanna do both. Keep the mothers and stick the clones outside.

    Which Digital Ballast?

    I've used a 400w nextgen, and a 1000w nextgen for a lil over a year now with no issues. My local hydro shop stop carrying lumatek due to a few fire scares. This was only on the variable voltage ones.

    C02, AC, and Room Help

    Hmmm, I knew that without the high temps and c02 it wouldn't be as efficient, but its worthless with low temps? This adds another equation to the ballpark, as now I must find a way to cool my nutrients with an AC... I was going to use room temp to keep nutrient temps down and to bring out the...
