Yes but without AC/DE's I'm assuming you have massive AC's? Just wondering what BTU's?
show and tell about your automated drip/sprayer systems

I jacked it off someone on diff forum years ago. I thought is was pretty sweet too. How many lines do you feed off each of the Jetcom pumps?

I would be ultra curious to know what switching to AC/DE's from Air-Cool HPS would do to ambient temps... Chillin do you perhaps have some insight as to switching from HPS (either air cooled or non) to DE and what it does to Temps? This is quite off topic so I'll leave the question at that...

I vegged 320 just fine. Lines where from 1-3" in length. Key is keeping pvc as large as possible to the filters never increasing diameter after reducing. The 4gph(May of said 5 b4 if so sorry) help keep pressure. Running zones w this bad pump is no problem either.

All DEs are not the same irregardless of what they claim. Hands down GAVIDA reigns supreme. Need 3' from canopy to bulb though but they cover 5x6 nicely especially lined up

I yielded low 2s w cooled/non hoods low 3s now. Actually w bigger canopy coverage less lights/power more yield. Not much more btus

You had 320 ladies feeding off that one pump! Damn!
I am quite sorry man but I have no clue what "key is going keeping...." sentence refers to at all. I literally feel like a dinosaur who's living in the Stone Age at this point.
Also I have no idea what the next 2 sentences mean either. Treat me like a complete newb to this concept of structuring the watering system. That's the main reason I retrieved my login after like 6 years lol. I wanna figure this shit out so bad. I couldn't find a detailed tutorial anywhere.

The pump inlet outlet is 1.5". Use 1.5" pvc from resevore to pump to inline filters. From there to 3/8" plastic tube. Periodically down tube I have 4 gallon per hour dripers with 1/4" tube to blackcaps 6" stuck into 6" rock wool cubes.

When you say running zones, do you mean breaking the room off into sections off the same pump? Do you have a link or searchable term to find this exact pump?
So your main-lines are PVC rather than the rubber tubing seen in Guerrillas? Actually in hindsight I remember seeing that in your pics, sorry. Is there any benefit to using PVC over the tubing besides rigidity? I'm assuming the rubber allows for a more flexible type setup but the PVC is better for the long haul.
Do you filter on the intake side of said pump? You wouldn't perhaps know of an instruction video or post outlining how to set one of these up would you? I'm starting to feel like a moron at this point...

Kick or drop something on 1.5" pvc, very durable and holds pressure nicely plus set it and forget it. The plastic tubing on the floor leaks then black molds n problems. Spend a few $ and sleep tight

Your setup is mastery! Seriously impressive! At this point I just need to buy the stuff and tinker around with it. Thank you for dealing with my newb-ness in regards to this stuff.
