In the 4x8 I have the carbon filter and both hoods inline to an 8" exhaust fan. No intake fan.
Same setup in the 4x4, just 1 light and 6" exhaust.

What sort of weight you pulling out of the 4x4.
What so you use the hoods as your exhaust. Do you have any other exhaust?

Hows it mate. Nice setup! Im running a real similar bucket system to yours here in NZ. I run 16 27L nutrifield propots usually in a 3 x 3 meter tent under 6 600w hps medium avengers with spreaders. I have to take the tent down in the peak of summer (now) & run it in a mylar lined room that way I can fit aircon in with them. I could leave the tent up & drop down to 4 600w but its 3lb difference in yeild so its worth the hassle. Would you mind if I put a couple pics up here in your thread? Or you could check out my current journal a link to it is in my signature. Be cool to get your thoughts on my setup yours is the only one ive seen in here thats like it. This is my 3rd grow in the buckets. The first grow was GG#4 with 4 600s in the 3x3 yielded a bit over 5lb in 9 weeks of 12/12 & a week of veg. Bumped it up to 3600w for the second grow with green crack pulled it in similar timeframe but probably should've gone another 2 weeks but still got 8lb of real nice gear. Now im 6 weeks deep GG#4 but its showing some freaky heat/light stress symptoms im picking they got just a touch warm 27-28C & the humidity got low & they curled up but Im not 100% sure they only thing Im doing different is using AC Ive never had plants curl up like this ever

Thats some insane yeilds yeah ive checked your thread out cause your the only one using the tubs like me haha.
Mine curl up a bit but not that much.
I ordered 6 of the pro pots. 15litres. Its a dwc setup.
But im gonna change to drip setup like yours when if i do run it.
I wanna build a shed an do something like your doing. But yeah prolly not in a tent. Just a room.
My mate runs 3000 watts in 1400x1400 tray
An get 5 to 6p a run.
Trying lowering ex/ppm tgatcstrain might not like high nute levels.

Yeah Ive dropped my ppms this week. Water uptake is starting to slow back down now. When they're peaking out at around weeks 4 & 5 of flower they drink about 40 litres a day so ppms spike if I dont keep on top of it. Its been a learning curve with the pro pots, Ive learned (the hard way) that after a week of veg & roughly 3 week in flower the roots will have grown down & blocked the return hose & emptied 200 litres onto/into the floor, dry out the res & burn out the pump.

How did u fix that problem, mine does that to i stick the hose up the outlet pipe after pulling roots out.

Havnt really fixed it. I lift the inner pots out & pull the roots back in once per grow. Ive thought about putting another outlet higher up the pots as a failsafe but its hose spaghetti as it is. It's definitely a design fault

Not much ya can do mate roots go where the water flows.

& i run my pump on a timer that way if it does block up at least it will only flood for 15 minutes at a time
