That setup is nothing special. 40 something buckets, some mylar, 5000w of lighting and a simple ebb and flow system. As long as the lights and CO2 are the only thing you purchase from a hydro store and everything else is DIY with cheap parts from HomeDepot or where ever the fuck you get it, $3k is more than enough to setup that room.
It's not like he's got a crazy environmental controller and CO2 burners and giant flood tables, shit he doesn't even have light movers or anything special. Very basic and very doable for under 3k if you're smart with your money.
Thanks man! This is the type of post I appreciate! I'ts not my first run, but always learning new things.... It was the first time I have seen that grow package, wanted to show it to the members here.. of course I noticed that alot of the accessories and products are of a generic quality.. It really comes down to laziness with me; because I can defenitely get down and build 2 rooms with studs and drywall, with all the dedicated electrical lines, and ventilation, and buid it to code!! Just a big project that may happen in the future, now is not the time...
Instead of the "bucket system", I'm leaning torwards nft flood tables, would like to try the sog method with this system... I could see it know, 120 site flood tables with nothing but fuely, soury, funky colas everywhere!!
