Current setup

Tent: 80x150x200cm (2,7+5×6,7ft)

Light: diy bar led. 2 fixtures 186w each - 1764pcs lm301H 3500k: will add 660nm later if needed...according to calculator it should give me a ppfd at 9000when at max...I expect to dim as I will be growing autos

Medium: 70/30 coco perlite

Fertilizers: canna coco, with heisenberg tea

Ventilation: AC infinity t6 with a prima klima carbon filter - honeywell fan and a clipon fan.

Cultivars: I have 3 different strains of Autos fro humbolt seeds company
..yes I will do a polyculture, just to get some variety in the jars...I picked 3 cultivars with roughly the same cyclus length.


Dripsystem... I am feeding 6 idrolab idropot/cap 4.5l though 4/6lines connected to 1/2" PE line. I might have a bit too powerfull pump. It is a sicce syncra 1.5 350gph (1350lh). 20seconds ontime will give me 3-400ml of water to each pot (that is with the pump intake regulator at 1/2))...so the water comes out with quite.some power...not that it spills water all over the place...I would like to slow it down alittle say 200ml/30sec for a more "calm" feeding. Any suggestions as to how I may take some of the pressure??? I thought about splitting the 4/6line with a T barb...other ideas?

But of course...haha...I have 4/6inline valves on each feeding line, did not even think about the main line....

I managed to control the splashing.

The idrocaps are similar to floracaps, they have 4 slots to fixate the feeding line. I found out the inline valves snap right on the caps. So what I did was to add a 7cm piece of feedingline to the valve above the idrocap, and then I cut out the underside of the line. See pics
