I always wanted to get on overgrow, but I wasn't really growing when it was in operation. So I did some searching and, it seems this and grasscity seem to be some of the better grower sites I found, but they block tor users from registering
, so here I am.
I have done a few grows in the past, I moved from a closet to a room within a room, with 48 plants under 2 x 600 W HPS on a light mover, and a 50 gallon recirculating deep water culture system, with gravity feed automatic top off. Then took a break for a while.
I just setup a mother chamber and a 36"x36"x64" and one of my 600 W bulbs in a cool tube. Carbon filter outside, exhaust to the outside. Eventually I will exhaust it outside the room entirely to create a negative pressure in the room, and force all the air to go through the carbon filter. In any case, this leaves no exchange inside the grow chamber, so I plan to use CO2 supplementation.
Then, I am building an entirely identical system right next to it. I plan to run them on different light cycles, over the course of a few grows, to gather data on how much of a difference it makes. This same setup has a lot of possibilities. Of course, I intend to smoke the output for my head, so, it has to produce. If all goes according to plan it will produce both enough bud to last crop to crop, and enough good data to write some papers, and settle some questions.
Currently I have the first system setup and running its first test crop, which is mite infested (see my thread under plant problems/bugs)....or was, they are being beaten back pretty hard now. Teach them for putting their dirty mouthparts on my girls.
In parallel to this, I am trying to figure out exactly what data I want to collect on a day to day basis. I have been messing around with some PERL code for shoving it all into a database: ph, tds, water delta, solution temp, air temp, humidity. Ideally CO2 levels too, but I am not up to that point yet.

... then you toss a tor location hidden service on the PC, Build a ROV with an arm/clippers/grabbers and a camera, a water supply bucket with float, system for remotely mixing nutes, few extra pumps for flushing and refilling..... how many sites do you think one person could run?
