....so I have been working on a few things for my next go round, and I have a new toy that I think some of you might get a kick out of.......I put together a flood and drain setup out of things I had laying around, check it out and tell me what you think.........
...First I took two storage bins that I had used to move and modified them slightly, cutting a two inch flange all the way around on one..........
..........
.....the pump eco+265, which means res° is going to be an issue...........but not a problem.....
and drilling two 1" holes center mass...I used 3/4" pvc and the slip to slip connectors, both top and bottom....(the ones in the corners are for support)
...
I cut the bottom off of a milk crate and clipped two of the "tines" out to let the drain extension through..........
........
.....
and covered the bottom with dollar tree shelf liner to keep the Hydroton from falling through........................
...
........................ 
....
the basket placement is perfect for 6-5" baskets, and the two in the center keep the whole thing issue free (for the most part)
..............................
....I will continue this thread as the precursor to phaze 2 of my current endeavor....I have this>>>> https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/378441-trailer-park-bagseed-cfl-grow.html <<<<<<<<<<<going on right now, but in a week or so I am going 400w HPS, in the same space.
I will be posting a thread on this as it develops, so if your so inclined, stay tuned......
