I have a 10x10 4 1k watt flower set up. What size fan should i use to cool the enclosed lights? All four hoods are xxxl 8 in running hortilux super HPS bulbs. I have an 8in active air inline fan 720 cfm, already.
The fan sucks the cold air from the basement over the hot lights and exhaust outside via 8inch insulated venting, the hoods are connected to one another by 6 inch venting and 8x6 reducers. I have them almost exactly three feet apart, parallel :: not - - - - linear.
I am thinkin of switching it all to 8 inch venting. I just couldnt find it at the time i set up. Will the extra two inches of air flow really make a big difference in cooling the lights down, or should i just get a more cfm, will adding an inline booster help much?
I need help with my drip feed system.
What size pump should i use to feed 30 to 50 plants in 5 gallon bucketts, sunshine #4, using drip irrigation? The emitters are pressure regulating and adjustable from 0-10 gph.
I dont know what the min/max gph for the submersable pump would be to feed all 50 bucketts
I have read not to exceed 25psi on the 1/4 inch tubing i put the emitters on.
anyone have a designs for drip system?
I am thinking of putting a 70-110 gal tank in my closet, running the 1/2 inch poly tube 5 feet or so to the grow space. Using T's and splitters to connect the 1/4 inch feeder line to the 1/2in main line from the res to pressure regulating emitters mounted on stakes, stake them in the buckets. Refilling the res every 10-14 days.
I use advance nutrients and sometimes see slime and other gross stuff in my bottles. sensi grow 2 part and conniseur, when i called the tech he said it was protein bind, so i will need to get a mesh net to put my pump in....
Any suggestions, ideas or advice????? I have a lil experience so lay it on me please
