are you sure its a flip box you want to make, or a light controller? (a box that will turn on multiple ballasts at the same time using one timer). ill pm you link for the flip non the less... meh.... heres the link, not sure if its a no no to post links, but i cant see the harm...

well guys, I have my 2 DIY hoods running in the small romm (off my DIY Flipbox!), and I'll say THEY WORK AWESOME! The temps in the room are staying at 80 degree's! the temp of the air coming out of the hoods is 115 degrees (average). So far the regular glass in the hoods is fine as well, i...

very good guys! I can easilly use 2x8's and build three small beds in the one big bed. piece of cake. then i could use three smaller res's, one for each. i believe this would be easier to control than one big res. I can see it coming together pretty easily. thanks for your input!

very good. this will be my method of grow then! thanks

for myself, I have 2 800 cfm fans venting my main room, But I have a rheostat on my intake, so i can turn it down a wee bit, do I can create some negative pressure. works great.

that was a whole harvest???? yikes!

hey guys, I hooked up the flip box today ,and all the lights. I also wired in a 450 cfm fan to it so it runs when the relays click over to power my small er room with the vented shades. It all works awesome! Looks like i'll be building a 3 or 4 relay box soon. ;-)

i love my 1000's :-)

Thanks for the info guys, but i also asked if i could use the beds, as-is (size wise) or should I break it down to three smaller beds (the large one) again, it measures about 6' x 14'. Its built with plywood bottom, and 2x4 sides. The smaller bed is 4' x 8'. Im looking to get as much info...

Hey guys, I was at the local "thrift store" today, looking for 4" ducting, and whatever i could find for cheap, and look what i stumbled on! It has a minute timer, and 24hr timer in it, along with a 12v transformer, and a small rheostat as well, for i dunno what. I thought who the heck would...

Hey! just a little update. I put the whole schebang in 24 hr dark for the 12/12 flip! I also finished wiring the flip box and all the lights for it today, and DAMN, it works good! I also wired up the fan that runs air through the hoods (in the smaller room), off the relay power, so that when the...

Heres an updated pic of the small room, and the lights ventilation, im drawing air from the hole with the blue filter on it, and its goes through the wall to a window outside. I tried the lights today, and put a thermometer probe in the output tube, just after the last light, the air was 95...

hey guys, im wanting to switch from growing in sunshine4 mix in netpots/bed to flood and drain tables. Ive never done it, so i need a few pointers. i have beds built already, one is 5' x 14', and the other is 4' x 8'. Can i just easilly convert these to flood and drain tables? line them with...

wow, your shit is TIGHT. it just goes to show i need to go over all my stuff and clean it all up one step at a time, I just did a major equipment reno in a working room(s), i dont wanna ever do that again! i should have everything buttoned up in 3 days or so. ill follow your lead.

the plants look very "scraggly" to me. not much there. I dunno, not to impressive IMO.

Id skip #4. I leave my dome on all the time, with the top vents open just slightly. I lift them up a bit just so i can mist them with plain RO water to add some humidity to them, maybe once a day. I have a thermometer sensor in the dome and keep the temp inside the dome at between 82-87...

another method we used to use years ago is to take freash cut nugs, wrap them in paper towel, fill an empty margarine container with cat litter (unscented) and bury the towl wrapped nugs in there. place in the microwave for 1-2 mins, and take it out and let it sit for 5 mins or so and chack it...

i pm'd you a link, although, once a guy finds the relays, its pretty easy to figure it out. just remember, you need to use magnetic ballasts for this, they dont work well with digital's.

I dunno, i think it may be too late for her, most of the leaves look cooked, and without them, it can't really do too much.

Whats with all the talk on the forums about plants going hermaphrodite? I've grown for at least 15 years (I took a 7 yr break till now ;-)), and in all the years ive grown ive never had a plant go hermaphrodite on me. I read in one post, "dont plant so many plants per light, your chance of...
