^ What he said.



Thanks!

Let's take future trailer question's to it's thread found here I'll answer these here for you.


47 feet.


6.5 ft from each other, ~ 3'4" from the plants



The real answer is strain!
A slightly more complex answer is 24 plants can yield my customers 45-50 lbs.
And oh boy I can go for hours... of course strain to grow is not only dependent on what the patients need, but what the dispensaries want and what facilities are available to grow in.


Up to a month



I'll quote him again since he got it right :-)

How many plants you think are in this room:

20ish?

How Long do you think they vegged for:

10 weeks?

I'll give you a clue... it vegged two weeks more then this one... they've both been flowering for the same time and they both are top shelf...

What strains are you using? What strain can I buy from a seed bank that is going to give nice weight at 8 weeks with Sunshine #4 and 8 weeks or more of veg time?

Again nice.... Looks like you have YEARS of practice. Hats off man keep up with good work. I have got a lot better over the last year and a half. Started with crap and some bad advice. It takes 8 weeks to see if that magical thing worked or not. Now I keep my temps, and bugs completely in check, but I still think I'm lacking.

Let me know if you want more info.

how did you work with the condensation on the tubes going to the chillers? I was thinking of running the tubes in pvc pipe and tilting the pipe (like a rain gutter) I just don't know about adding HI's h2o dehumidifier to the room.

i'd love to see more pix when you can.

What a trip... Another toma tow grower!

More pics of what? The dehumidifier?

Are you planning on running an A/C? The deciding factor as to needing a dehumidifier is truly a function of what temp you'll keep the room and water temp.

There is no condensation control in this room and there is no need. We do not have a condensation issue since humidity is kept in the 40's and water temp is 68-70.

If you are going to supplement everything with an A/C it will act as a dehumidifier as well.

The dehumidifier puts out a little heat even with the water flowing through it, but it seems less then without the water.

I am NOT affiliated with watercooledgardens.com but give them a call and get a second opinion from someone that knows this stuff.

What kind of chiller do you have running all that
No Chiller at all in my setup. Considered a ChillKing, but thought the warranty was different then commercial aquarium chillers. I did test with a JBJ which popped 3 days into testing and was replaced under warranty. New one is sitting in a box unused.

and are you using the hydrogen co2 generator? Nice Work
Yes, I am. Not only as CO2 for the room, but as the main and only water heater for the house.

Let me elaborate... I mentioned this before in the thread, but I know it's gotten kinda large, so I'll explain my logic (and my primary reason) as to why I bought a JBJ and not a Chill King.

It was my understanding (and still is) that warranty on a Chill King chiller is 90 day all inclusive and 1 yr on parts. The warranty on a jbj commercial is 1 yr all inclusive.

I gathered my information from these two sights:
http://www.jbjlighting.com/prod-arctica-commercial.html - JBJ shows the 1 year warranty

http://www.watercooledgardens.com/product.php?productid=16282&cat=266&page=1 Warranty is worded in such a way that I feel I'm out labor cost if it breaks after 90 days.

correct! ^ before 90 days everything is covered, after, nothing is covered <- Hydro Inovation's .pdf manual for the ChillKing > you can send it in for repair but you will pay, and you cover shipping in either situation... not a very good warranty for a "commercial grade" unit..

:(

I'm rethinking, my chiller order. I have everything in except the chiller unit and maybe I'll cancel my order for something that has the backing of the manufacturer..

good eye watercooled!

Ceberus, Check out the Jandy pool heaters. They have them in chiller mode and if you call them, they can make one for the size you want (maybe not as small as you want it) They have good warranty as well.

They do not have the benefits of the packaged chill king, but since you've got your rez and understand the different loop options, I think you'll be fine. Probably overkill to go with a Jandy unless you are going big.

:D

im here


school me on those watercooled...i know you've always said something about them, but im still confused as how they work?


according to description of 110v or 220v that tells me they still use power....how much power?

my impression was that its being cooled from the water? something like a big ass heat exchanger

i was just gonna put an icebox on a carbon filter for my portable a/c.... but im really liking that marine a/c

just not exactly sure how it works.


everything looking good for sure man
