Sounds good. Um. I'll get pictures and measurements of the 4 rooms soon. But for now can you guys kindly tell me what methods you have done and nutrients and etc. I'm trying to find a chart and timing when to put what and how much and when. I know theres 3402834324 recipes but which ones are the best? thanks I did a little research and I think i found that RDWC is the easiest and yields a lot am I wrong? or soil pots like 15 gallons +?

And in the area we have to use. I'm trying to have as many LARGE plants. I like taking care of big plants rather than a lot of medium plants. I just need the damn measurements to that place ill find out this sunday but im trying to be ahead a bit or have some knowledge to this big project. -_- lots of pressure riding on my nuts LOL

You will get good yields with DWC .. RDWC will make it easier to maintenance.. You are searching too hard for nute recipes , quality bud lies in the genetics and grower. Remember DWC is all about cool water and no lights so make sure you invest in a a few good aquarium chillers.There are a lot of nutrient lines out there.

the local hydrostore guy :p haha and the videos seems like its easy to put together and run. My local guy said he'll help me but im venturing out to you guys for more help. I believe he has like 5 years in DWC or something. He said he'll guild me and make a shit load of list and stuff etc if only i got supplies from him lol but we'll see.

Do you think I should make my own RDWC or buy one? man those things go for like 2k and its a bunch of plastic and rubber few valves, brain bucket, few pumps, etc etc but what do u guys think? Should I buy one and if I do they come with warranty? and what brand if so. damn so many questions :p

Cool I found Cloneville to have good clones and genetics I believe. Does anyone know where I can get top genetic seeds or clones in the Los Angeles area?

Cool water and no lights? What do you mean by no lights? <-- And buy getting more chillers you mean have one for each dwc system? Ive seen a 12 bucket system with only 1 chiller. Let me know thanks!

Infect3d,

Check out the build in my sig. It's a 20k grow we built in a warehouse. I layed out everything we did and the costs involved. Most people DRASTICALLY underbudget what it takes to do it right. It's good that you have capitol to do it right. We spent 80k total. I should say this included paying ourselves for the build and the 4 months before we had a harvest. It also included the attorney's fees, insurance, etc...I suggest finding a local hydro shop to do business with. Tell them your plan and you can negotiate a nice discount. We get 30% off everything. It's nice when a piece of equipment fails (and they do) to be able to just walk in the door and walk out with a replacement.

I would stay away from DWC and the like. If you keep it simple you will do much better. Soiless hand watered has always been my choice and the choice of several commercial growers I know. Currently we use rockwool for the nice production and cleanliness. You can check out my thread to see that I'm not just blowing smoke.

ok lets say you get 20 brand new 1k lights for 350 each thats 7000 lets say 4 charcole filters for 3oo each that 1200. lets say 4 exhaust fans for 250 each thats 1000.lets say 3000 grand for a AC and thats if the building didnt have one. lets say 5 grand on pots nutrient and soil or soiless mix or rock wool. that would only be 17 grand. and 5 of it for the AC you shouldnt even need if you have central heat and air. unless your going to try and controll the co2 level in a building that big and have climate controllers and co2 burners?

thanks bro. I have looked into it and everyone has been telling me to go rockwool cubes. 4inches on top of 6 inchers. hand feed them. I'm going to attend a grow class right down the street amazingly. And it's free if your a patient there. AWESOME HUH ? :p Thanks on the tip on looking for a local hydro store and letting them know about the project is a good idea. So now its basically what i wanna feed it. The class uses CANNA LINE. I think I saw your 20k post :) now its time to look for the cost and stuff u were talking about. But what recipes are you feeding them. Now all im worried about is.... getting the STRAIN and the feeding log down and all that stuff. man this is gonna be some SERIOUS WORK!!!

gota see if they have gas lines. I would want to run a co2 burner in every room or 1 for 2 rooms? I'm not that fair ahead yet but I'm getting there :P
