Hi everyone, thanks for subbing to me new waterfarm journal. im extemely happy to have you with me over there as well. Both of these grows are new and challenging for me. I have never grown in coco.. for my 12/12....... and never ever thought i would be attempting a hydro grow at this point either. Im up for the challenge though and with awesome friends like you all helping me i have confidence i can get to harvest (fingers crossed).
please feel free to make suggestions along the way and adding any helpful advice you might have.

Cinders, yes this is a 12/12 from seed. My goal is Harvest by 75 days and to break my last 12/12 harvest yeild of 10 oz...im off to a slower start unfort.. im hoping to pick up speed around the next corner.

This solution made me very happy..... :eyesmoke:
before getting the ducting into these foam hole cutouts..they were jammed into the open window getting crushed....:eyesmoke:

I transplanted all the babies with b'cuzz coco. Watered them thouroughly . I will be feeding them Hesi TNT throughout the vegg cycle. the transplant was very tricky. A very difficult transplant for the Doc.lol.....the compost was crumbly and roots were tender ...some breaking off.
I know they will recover but im hoping it wont take too too long.
I will bump my light up to 600 watts tonite..
my temp and humid is good .. presently i dont need my humidifier or dehumidifer running.
my 12/12 light schedule is lights off at 6 pm on 6am.. to fit with my work schedule.
Im running my MH bulb prob for the next 2 weeks at 12/12 then to my HPS for the rest of the grow.. I will be watching to pull males as soon as i see those bastards grow ball.lol
Im using smartpots and airpots cut down. :eyesmoke:

Noise, well I think you could try hanging the fans from something to eliminate the noise they pick up from sitting on something solid.
My fan noise went down when I eliminated "air pinching" which happens when you have bends and air going through ducting that changes in size. There are ducting silencers that you can buys but they are priced in the same range as carbon filters. If you hang the fans though you should see a noticable difference in noise I think. Hope this helps.

super cool setup Doc! yeah what D said. bungee cord to hang the fans or insulating them in foam maybe. i found the same thing bends in the tubing are not only noisy but they will raise your temps quite a bit too. i tried the insulated ducting when i first started but didnt find it helped all that much. it's pricey too.

good luck!

wow, such nice positive constructive feedback. Thanks everyone. I am very grateful i have such nice posts from nice peeps like ya'll.
CI, do you read anything i post?lol.....or are you overdosing on shickabud popsicles again? you crazy stoned cat!!!!!
the tent on the left is 12/12.. the tent on the right waterfarm scrog.(under construction) see new journal for further information.

Ducting is a big prob for the Doc.. I was in my garage for 2 hours working on my ducting and set up.. my exhust fan ducting came apart and i had to figure out a solution which took forever.. my ballasts in front of the exhust fan fell while i was working.. if you see that area in between my tents in prior pix.. its completely rearranged now. i have move both ballasts out of that area. The tent on the right's ballast has been move to the right of the tent up on my shelving unit below my cooling light fan. The ballast for the left tent is now on my woden shelfving unit to the left of the tent.. My exhaust is off the chair and now on the floor.. i had to add ducting to the right side exhust up to the right tent.. I will run my ducting all fucked up like this until these grows are over then im hoping to do some construction and get everything properly installed up and out the cieling(like yours dst) .... that is if i dont decide or have to move from this place...
I am still playing with timers and dialing everything in correctly. My dehumidifier was acting wierd.. brought it back to Lowes and the cool cats gave my a brand new one!!! NO Questions asked.. i bought it 6 months ago.. One up for Lowes dept store..i will be back for you exellent customer service...
I will think some more about possible fixes.. was thinkin about the silencer dST..... and the foam.. dgt.. thanks guys..
babies lookin good.. ill show you later on!
take it easy..

Sound's like you'r on the ball Amb's. Alot more than myself atm, its funny to hear all you speak about setting up your new tent's ect... I'm pulling wire's out and had everything upside down. " or is that me upside-down and pulling my hair out !!! " But glad to say ive got green in da tent atlast lol.
I was just about to buy the ' acoustic ' ducting like dgt mentioned, but was already thinking it might not have made a great diff. " Oh Well, ive got a hungry Laddie wanting his breakfast "
Hope to catch-up later Doc.
