I haven't actually run this strain. I have it but haven't flowered it yet.
A friend of mine gave me a cut a while back. I was hoping to get the platinum huckleberry but he had a firm grasp on that strain... lol
24 x 64, cost me $2,200 to build, including the chicken wire on the outside walls and regular 6 mil plastic.
That platinum huckleberry cookies is some good smoke...!!
Yes 3/4's of an inch of nutrient solution is left in the buckets. Which is replaced every 30 minutes. As the root mat gets larger it displaces the amount of solution in the bottom of the bucket. The nutrient solution that the plants get every 30 minutes is enriched with oxygen in the resivior...
You must be one of those guys that tries to put all the paint on at once. Which leads to runs or in this case will melt the foam.
But applied properly it doesnt.
This room will normally only run 12/12. So the plants (started in bucket lids on tables and transferred to the next table where they are placed in buckets, so the roots drop) will be 2.5 - 3 ft plants by the time they enter the flower room.
This round had to be filled with a mix of seedlings...
Take off the front of the AC unit (behind the filter). You'll see a bunch of white foam, like a foam cooler. This channels the air to the vent locations. Spray that foam with black spray paint.
Next if you're using the corigated slides on the side of the AC unit. Tape cardboard or something...
I'm not sure of the exact size off the top of my head. I'm guessing around 1,500 GPH.
It's way bigger then what we need (hence the relief valve setup) but I already had 3 of these pumps.
There is a link to my build in my signature below if anyone is interested.
I wouldn't be posting pics if it wasn't. My wife and I are both caregivers.
The building, I built.
Now that the system is up and running. I've opened a thread in the hydro grow section.

First run in my new system.
I've run many versions of this system in the past, saving up to build this system.
First we have our tank room. Feed tank on right return tank on left. We can also recycle or drain to waist. I have a pressure release loop returning to the tank from the pump, so I can...
All our seedlings were transplanted into 3 gain bags on Sunday.
I also finished up all the plumbing in the hydro room today. Did a test run and everything was good to go.
Thanks..!!
10 of the 12 bulbs were new. Figured I could get away with 2 used bulbs but I'm going to go buy 2 more. I actually get a decent price on these 1000w digilux $50.
I have just a few more things to get done tomorrow, including fix the rest of the hanging wires.
