For sure, if you've got the $, go with the mini split A/C. They are perfect for this application. +rep

Thank you both for your input. Yes, the drain is not shown as the picture was already pretty rough and it started getting really cluttered. I'm not sure if I should use 1 1/2" PVC, 1 1/4" PVC, or even something smaller? With your advice, I'll definitely go to smaller plumbing. Thanks. I'm...

Hey SOG, would you mind going and checking out my new aero design if you get a chance?

Hello, I'm wondering if you'd be able to go over to my thread in growroom design and take a look at my new aero design. I'd appreciate it and will rep all who deserve it. Thanks, AeroKing Please, Click here for the thread.

Please critique my design. +rep for any decent input. This is my plan for a new aeroponic system that I'm soon going to be building. It is two stories, being retrofitted into an existing grow box. The boxes are going to be the "Tough Boxes" that you can see in SOGs journal. All white lines...

Good polished aluminum is 95% reflective. Thats a 5% loss. If 90' of the circumference of your bulb actually points at the canopy, you are losing 75% of the light. Lets even say that 10% light is bounced back by the strip, that's still 65% loss vs. 5%. 1/4" closer is not going to gain you 65%...

Dual hose units can draw air from an exterior source, heat it and the push it into yet another area without exchanging air with the area they are in. Single hose units don't take air from another location, they take it from the room and blow it out the exhaust. With mine, even though there is...

I could show you plenty of burned leaves and can tell you what burning flesh smells like if you touch them. Yours may run cooler because of the way you've positioned them without reflectors. You and I have already discussed and established that you are sacrificing valuable light for this...

Not any point. My truck is a ford. I know it is a ford. I have viable proof. Facts are still Facts. Philosophies and theology are opinions.

Your sprayer should engage into the grommet that it sits in. The head of the sprayer should not move. It should be stationary and only the impeller should rotate. I think I remember that happened to me when I was first setting this up. I think the little collar above the spray ports was...

wait, you want me to know what it feels like to be 60? j/k. Roseman, you are obviously not one who goes through life blindly, letting everyone else tell you what you should believe. You don't believe just because you were raised that way, or because you're afraid you'll rot in hell if you...

Hi 206, I ran a rainforest for a while. It is a nice unit and produces very fast growth. 1982, the pictures don't tell the story that the spacing on this unit is pretty tight. 206, I hope you realize that you will not be able to veg 5 plants from seed to maturity and then flower them out in...

I'd consider using bigger pots for flowering. You can grow quite a monster in that space. I ordered some SLH. I'm interested to see how this goes for you!

That's deceiving, though. You use a lot more 3 part than nova throughout a grow.

I believe that every point you make can be argued with another point. I believe that you don't know if there is a GOD and I believe you can't know if there is a GOD. I also believe that everybody has a right to believe what they would like and that the name of religion had caused great good in...

Check your T5s after running for several hours. They will scorch a plant or burn you. You can't run any light in an enclosed space with out heat buildup. Heat is a natural byproduct of light. You can't have one without the other.

You've touched on two phenomenon that plagues me daily as a hydro grower. 1 PH is directly related to temperature for 2 reasons. One because the ph probe will deal with h ions differently at different temps, and second because the dissolved CO2 in a solution is determined by its temp and also...

If you don't have a local Hydro shop, shipping is a real bitch with a lot of grow media...

So, what do you think? Do you think that the plants will be able to use the pinpoint light better than the distributed light?

Underwater plants use dissolved CO2 from the water, but not a hydroponic weed garden - they get their CO2 from the air, where their leaves and stomata are.
